Abstract

In this research, an efficient biosorption system was developed for methylene blue adsorption over in situ hydrothermally synthesized magnetite 4-hydroxybenzoic acid cellulose nanohybrid. The material was characterized with EDX, VSM, FT-IR, FESEM, and TEM techniques. Results showed that the nanohybrid is a micro-cluster composed of stacked nanoscale particles. Multivariate optimization with Box–Behnken design was used to evaluate effective parameters on adsorption and their interaction. Results showed that pH, shacking time, and adsorbent dosage are effective parameters on MB adsorption. Adsorption rate is fast with equilibrium time of 5.5 min. Isotherm study revealed that the adsorption followed Langmuir model with adsorption capacity of 7.5 mg g−1.
