Optimization of Ciprofloxacin Adsorption on Clinoptilolite-Based Adsorbents Using Response Surface Methodology.

ABSTRACT: The adsorption of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP) from water solution by natural zeolite-clinoptilolite (CLI), magnetic clinoptilolite (MAG-CLI), and graphene oxide coated magnetic clinoptilolite (GO-MAG-CLI) was investigated. The novel approach of an environmentally friendly and cost-effective microwave-assisted method was applied for the magnetic composite synthesis. Detailed characterization of the prepared composites was achieved. In order to investigate the effect of the initial CIP concentration, pH, temperature, contact time, and type of adsorbent on the adsorption efficiency of CIP, and to obtain the optimal conditions for CIP removal, the response surface methodology central composite factorial design (RSM-CCF) was applied. The results obtained by the RSM-CCF showed that among the studied adsorbents, GO-MAG-CLI had the highest adsorption capacity for CIP, achieved for the initial concentration of 48.47 mg dm^-3 at a pH of 5 and 24.78 °C after 19.20 min of contact time. The adsorption kinetics studied for the initial CIP concentration range of 15-50 mg dm^-3 followed Lagergren's pseudo-second-order model, and the Langmuir isotherm was the most suitable one to describe the CIP adsorption onto GO-MAG-CLI.

Project description:Environment-friendly composite hydrogel beads based on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), alginate (Alg) and graphene oxide (GO) were synthesized by an ionotropic gelation technique and studied as an efficient adsorbent for methylene blue (MB). The chemical structure and surface morphology of the prepared hydrogel beads were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and point of zero charge (pHpzc). A hybrid response surface methodology integrated Box-Behnken design (RSM-BBD) was successfully developed to model, simulate, and optimize the biosorption process. The synergistic effects between three critical independent variables including adsorbent dose (0.3-0.7 g), pH of the MB solution (6.5-9.5) and initial MB concentration (15-45 mg L-1) on the MB adsorption capacity (mg g-1) and removal efficiency (%) were statistically studied and optimized. The performance of the RSM-BBD method was found to be very impressive and efficient. Results proved that the adsorption process follows a polynomial quadratic model since high regression parameters were obtained (R 2-value = 99.8% and adjusted R 2-value = 99.3%). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) further confirms the validity of the suggested model. The optimal conditions for 96.22 ± 2.96% MB removal were predicted to be 0.6 g of CMC-Alg/GO hydrogel beads, MB concentration of 15 mg L-1 and pH of 9.5 within 120 min. The adsorption equilibrium is better described by the Freundlich isotherm, indicating that physisorption is the rate controlling mechanism. The MB adsorption process was thermodynamically spontaneous and endothermic. A reusability study revealed that the prepared adsorbent is readily reusable. The adsorbent still maintains its ability to adsorb MB for up to four cycles. Results reported in this study demonstrated that CMC-Alg/GO hydrogel beads are an effective, promising and recyclable adsorbent for the removal of MB from aqueous solutions.

Project description:The aim of this work was to demonstrate an optimization methodology to reliably obtain stable macrodispersions (i.e., for ≥24 h) of carbon nanotubes in water using sonication. Response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to assess and optimize the sonication parameters for the process. The studied input parameters were (i) sonication time (duration), (ii) amplitude (of vibration), and (iii) pulse-on/off (duration) of the sonicator. The analyzed responses were mean diameter and size distribution of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) aggregates in water, which were measured by the dynamic light scattering technique. A semiempirical model was developed and statistically tested to estimate the magnitude of sonicator parameters required to obtain specified MWNT macrodispersions (i.e., aggregates' mean diameter and distribution) in water. The results showed that MWNT aggregates of 2 ± 0.5 μm can be obtained by optimizing sonicator parameters to a sonication time of 89 s, amplitude of 144 μm, and pulse-on/off cycle of 44/30 s. These process settings for 100 mg/L MWNTs in a 30 mL aliquot of deionized water would consume 863 J/mL of sonication energy. Contrary to the popular belief, "sonication time" and/or "sonication energy input" were not found to be proportional to the degree of dispersion of MWNTs in water. This might be the reason for the frequent disparity and nonreproducibility of sonication results reported in scientific literature, especially for dispersing nanomaterials in a number of different systems. The amplitude of vibration was noted to be the most sensitive parameter affecting MWNT aggregates' diameter and distribution in water. The characterization of MWNTs was performed using electron microscopy, surface area analyzer, thermogravimetric analyzer, and zeta potential analyzer. This study can be helpful in evaluating sonication dispersion of particulate matter in other incompressible fluids such as graphene dispersion in organic solvents.
