Calcium alginate–bentonite–activated carbon composite beads as highly effective adsorbent for methylene blue
Abstract
Abstract Three adsorbents, namely, bentonite–alginate beads, activated carbon–alginate beads, and activated carbon–bentonite–alginate beads (ABA) were prepared for the adsorption of methylene blue (MB). The effects of solution pH (3–11), temperature (30, 40, and 50 °C), initial concentration (25–500 mg/L), and contact time were investigated. Results showed that the maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of ABA beads for the adsorption of MB was 756.97 mg/g at 30 °C. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics illustrated the suitability of employing the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The equilibrium adsorption data fitted the Freundlich isotherm well. In addition, the ABA composite exhibited more than 70% adsorption uptake capacity after six regeneration cycles. The outcomes of this study suggest the potential of ABA composite for cationic dye removal.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
