This study aims to develop a cost-efficient silica-based adsorbent from bamboo alkaline black liquor for dye removal.
Prepared a silica-based adsorbent from bamboo alkaline black liquor via calcium hydroxide precipitation and calcination.
Characterized the adsorbent using techniques like ICP-OES, XRD, SEM, and BET analysis.
Investigated the effects of various factors on adsorption performance including adsorbent dosage and dye concentration.
The adsorbent achieved a removal efficiency of 82.94% for methylene blue under optimal conditions.
The Langmuir model provided the best fit for adsorption data with a maximum capacity of 840.3 mg/g.
