Abstract

A green, simple and low cost method was used for synthesis of nanostructured carbon covered sand (NCCS) from sugar and river sand. The prepared sample was used as adsorbent for water purification. The prepared NCCS was characterized with scanning electron microscopy energy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), FT-IR and X-ray diffraction (XRD) methods. Methyl violet (MV) as a cationic dye was used for adsorption kinetic and isotherm studies to determine removal performance of NCCS. The effect of temperature and pH on the adsorption was studied as well.
