ADSORPTION CAPACITY FOR THE REMOVAL OF ORGANIC DYE POLLUTANTS FROM WASTEWATER USING CAROB POWDER

In this study, Carob powder was used as the adsorbent to remove the aqueous solvent paint. The as-prepared carob powder was structurally characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the experiments, six inputs pH (2-8), ultrasound frequency (50-150 hz), particle size (50-150 µm), adsorption temperature (25-40 °C), solution concentration (10-30 mg/L) and adsorption time (120-360 min) were examined using the statistical Box-Behnken design with parameters. The quadratic model was selected with the coefficient (R2) found 0.8899 and 0.9830 in the experimental data. Under the optimum conditions (pH= 5.85, ultrasound frequency= 36.40 Hz, particle size= 137.63 μm, adsorption temperature= 25.38℃, solution concentration= 29.30 mg/L and adsorption time= 267.63 min) 6 different experimental setups were prepared. The average amount of dye recovery obtained from the test results was found to be 256,4355 mg/g. As a result of the present work, it was seen that carob powder could be a strong alternative adsorbent for methylene blue removal.
