This work was designed to produce effective adsorbent from acrylamide (AAm), sodium methacrylate (SMA), and chitosan (CTS) through free radical grafting polymerization for removing the Fuchsin dye from its solution. The gel fraction and the grafting parameters were studied, and the results showed maximum grafting percentage (1014.3%) and gel fraction (83.5%) when the molar ratio of SMA to AAm was 1: 1 (the best ratio). In addition, incorporation of SMA into the gel structure enhanced the swelling of the gel by 6.63-10.25-fold as compared with the AAm-graft-CTS gel. FT-IR, TGA, DTG, DTA, and SEM were utilized to investigate the gels. Capacity for the adsorption of Fuchsin basic dye via batch process was tested and the impact of SMA, contact time, agitation rate, gel dose, dye concentration, temperature, and pH were studied. The maximum removal % (97.2%) was achieved at the best ratio. Best fitting was found by pseudo-second-order kinetic and Freundlich isotherm. Evaluation of the thermodynamic parameters was done, and it was found that the adsorption process was exothermic in nature and spontaneous and unfavorable at high temperature. The negative value of ∆S (-0.148 KJ K mol) indicated the decrease in randomness at the solid-liquid interface.

It is important to accomplish both photocatalytic efficiency and adsorption capacity in the catalyst to produce a highly effective photocatalyst for complete dye removal from wastewater. In the current investigation, TiO and fly ash-TiO composites (0.5-5 wt%) were fabricated by sol-gel and wet-impregnation process, and their catalytic performance was evaluated for the effective adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of fuchsin blue dye.

The rGO/CMC/β-CD (RCβ) hydrogel was synthesized from reduced graphene oxide (rGO), β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) by radical polymerization. A novel hydrogel adsorbent was created by growing the metal-organic framework (Cu-BTC) in-situ on RCβ hydrogel, which has excellent adsorption capacities for cationic dyes in wastewater. The adsorption parameters such as the amount of adsorbent, pH of solution and adsorption time were optimized through batch adsorption experiments.

Adsorption remediation is an energy-efficient water treatment technology that utilizes the adsorption properties of a biosorbent to remove various pollutants. While many articles have explored the high surface area and adsorption capacity of activated carbon for remediating aquatic systems, few have delved into the environmental impact of its synthesis, which often involves HPO, a highly toxic activating agent. In this study, we present a groundbreaking alternative to activated carbon for the adsorption and remediation of aquatic waste that doesn't rely on chemical products.
