Abstract

Algerian Eucalyptus Leaves (AEL), a natural biodegradable adsorbent abundantly available, was used for the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye. The AEL properties for the removal of MB were investigated under different conditions by varying the AEL amount, MB concentration, pH of the solution and the reaction temperature. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques have been used to characterize AEL biosorbent. Experimental results showed that the adsorption of MB dye at the concentration of 50 mg L−1 reached to 91 % at pH 10 with a stirring speed of 200 rpm and after 180 min of reaction time. The experimental data were analyzed using the linear forms of different kinetic models (pseudo-first order kinetic model, pseudo-second order kinetic model, and intra-particle diffusion models). The results demonstrated that the adsorption kinetics of MB was consistent with the pseudo-second order model with R 2 value of 0.9969. The isotherm models Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin, Elovich, Brunaut Emmet Teller and Temkin models were also investigated to describe the adsorption equilibrium. The results show that the AEL adsorption is in accordance with Temkin isotherm. The thermodynamic study revealed that the adsorption is spontaneous and exothermic. Therefore, as a cheap green adsorbent with high MB adsorption performance, AEL is expected to become one of the best candidate materials for future industrial wastewater treatment.
