In the present study two synthetic mesoporous carbons, a highly ordered CMK-3 sample with hexagonal structure and a disordered mesoporous carbon (denoted DMC) were investigated for the sorption of Remazol Red 3BS (C.I. 239) dye in comparison to three commercial activated carbons and a HMS mesoporous silica with a wormhole pore structure. The structural, porosity and surface characteristics of the materials were evaluated using XRD, TEM, N-2 porosimetry, FT-IR spectroscopy and zeta-potential measurements. Optimal dye sorption occurred at pH similar to 2. Equilibrium sorption data followed the Langmuir model and showed that the two synthetic mesoporous carbons exhibit higher sorption capacities (q(max) similar to 500-580 mg/g at 25 degrees C) in comparison to the commercial activated carbons which possessed either microporous (Takeda 5A and Calgon carbon) or combined micro-/mesoporous (Norit SAE-2) structures and to the HMS mesoporous silica. Thermodynamic parameters as the change in free energy, enthalpy, and entropy of sorption were also estimated. Kinetic studies were carried out and showed a rapid sorption of dye in the first ca. 30 min while equilibrium was reached after ca. 3 h. The sorption kinetics of dye was best described by a second-order kinetic model. A surfactant enhanced carbon regeneration (SECR) technique was used to regenerate the dye-loaded carbon sorbents.
