Synthetic dyes can be hazardous to the ecosystem, even at low concentrations in the effluent. In this research, the Heracleum persicum stems-Fe3O4 (MHPS) adsorbent performance for the removal of crystal violet (CV) and methylene blue (MB) from binary aqueous solutions was investigated in a batch method under the influence of different parameters. In addition, predictive models for the adsorption process were developed using machine learning techniques such as artificial neural networks and random forests. ANN and RF models achieved high R values of 0.9501 and 0.9797 for CV, 0.9471, and 09,834 for MB, respectively, and obtained low MSE values of 0.07107 and 0.03405 for CV, 0.09933, and 0.02908 for MB. The proposed adsorbent is cheap and eco-friendly and, on the other hand, is easily collected by the magnetic field. The adsorbent was characterized by applying FESEM-EDX, FESEM, BET, and FTIR. Various isotherm and kinetics models for the simultaneous adsorption of CV and MB were investigated in aqueous solutions. The adsorption isotherm and kinetics studies explain that the extended Langmuir model and pseudo-second-order models are best suited for CV and MB in the binary solution. The exothermic adsorption was achieved in the temperature range of 5-45 °C.

Laccases are of particular interest in addressing environmental challenges, such as the degradation of triphenylmethane (TPM) dyes, including crystal violet (CV) and Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB), which are commonly used in SDS-PAGE for protein visualization. However, these dyes present significant environmental concerns due to their resistance to degradation, which makes their removal from industrial wastewater a major challenge. To address this, the current study investigates the potential of a novel CotA laccase derived from Bacillus sp.

This study investigates the critical relationship between the crystal phase, morphology, and photocatalytic activity of MnO. The δ-MnO nanosheets, characterized by multiple exposed crystal planes forming junctions, exhibit optimized optical and electrical properties. Oxygen vacancy concentrations were observed in the order δ-MnO > γ-MnO > α-MnO, with corresponding increases in band gap width from 1.

Adsorbents with high selectivity and adsorption capacity are of significant interest for the removal of dye pollutants. Herein, we report a facile low-temperature solvothermal synthesis of clew-like CuO/CuO microspheres by using cupric acetate monohydrate as the copper resource and ethylene glycol as the solvent and morphology modulator. The synthesized CuO/CuO microspheres showed high selective adsorption to anionic dyes (e.
