S Renganathan
Sorption capacity of two different parts of Eichhornia crassipes such as Lamina and Petiole on a Basic dye (Basic Aurophine-O), Acidic dye (Acid Fast Red-A) and Reactive dye (Brill Red-5B) was studied in a batch system. The maximum equilibrium uptake capacity of petiole was 25.5 mg/g for Basic Aurophine-O, 23.1 mg/g for Acid Fast Red-A and 0.18 mg/g for Brill Red-5B. The equilibrium uptake capacity of petiole was found to be more in Basic Aurophine-O dye when compared to all other dyes studied. The maximum equilibrium uptake capacity of lamina was 27.0 mg/g for Basic Aurophine-O, 25.2 mg/g for Acid Fast Red-A and 4.2 mg/g for Brill Red-5B. The equilibrium uptake capacity of lamina was found to be more in Basic Aurophine-O when compared to Brill Red-5B and Acid Fast Red-A dyes studied in the present investigation. From the result, it was observed that the uptake capacity of dyes using E. crassipes part Lamina was found to be more when compared to the other E. crassipes part of Petiole used in the present study. Sorption results were found to be fitted very well with the Pseudo-second order kinetic model when compared to Pseudo-first order kinetic model. The intra particle diffusion coefficient (Ki) and diffusion coefficient (Di) obtained for the removal of dyes studied using Lamina was found to be more when compared to the other part of Petiole. The polynomial equations are developed and can be used as a ready reckoner equation to find out the percentage color removal of dyes studied in the present investigation at different period of time intervals.
