Abstract

Water contamination is a major challenge due to the discharging of wastes into the natural resources. In this study, a novel branched pore adsorption model was developed by utilizing external mass transfer coefficients, Kf , effective diffusivity, and lumped microspore diffusion rate parameters. This describes sorption kinetics from long-term adsorption that occurs between an adsorbent and an adsorbate. An investigation of the effects of dye concentration on Basic Blue 9 removal was conducted. Then by considering of initial and boundary conditions the government equations were solved. Using this model, the Basic Blue 9 (or methylene blue is an industrial inhibitor) was removed from a bentonite sample polluted by Basic Blue 9. The maximum adsorption capacity was achieved by using of Freundlich analysis. Based on the experimental data, theoretical concentration - time adjusted models were developed using a FORTRAN computer program to fit the experimental data more precisely and confirm the precision and accuracy of this research.
