Abstract
Utilizing of bio-adsorbent in zero waste concept: adsorption study of crystal violet onto the Centaurea solstitialis and Verbascum thapsus plants
Highlights
With the increase in industrial activities in recent years, the amount of dyes used to color products has increased [1]
This study aims to investigate the Crystal Violet (CV) removal possibility by Centaurea solstitialis (CS) and Verbascum Thapsus (VT) plants as low-cost bio-adsorbents from the aqueous solution
The results show increases in the calorific values for the two plants after the adsorption process
Summary
With the increase in industrial activities in recent years, the amount of dyes used to color products has increased [1]. Significant amounts of dyes are used, especially in the textile, paper, leather, paint, printing, food and plastic industries. In industries where dyes are used, the discharged wastewater resulting from the process without color removal sufficiently causes significant environmental problems. The discharged dyes affect the chemical structure of the water. It disrupts the aesthetic appearance of the water and prevents the passage of light into the water body. All these have negative effects on the aquatic ecosystem [1],[2]
