Abstract

The potential of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) nanofiber prepared by the electrospinning technique for the methyl orange (MO) adsorption from aqueous solution was investigated. In this study, the adsorption experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of temperatures in a batch system. From experiment it can be seen that the MO adsorption using PMMA nanofiber increased with increasing temperature. The kinetic data of MO were analyzed by pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. It was found that the amount of MO adsorbed increase with increasing temperature. Kinetics parameters data indicated that the MO adsorption onto PMMA nanofiber was found to follow both pseudo first and second-order rate equations.
