In this study, NiO nanoparticles were synthesized using a green hydrothermal method and evaluated as an adsorbent for dye removal. The results demonstrated that NiO nanoparticles exhibited promising adsorption capacity for the dye, with the ability to be regenerated.
In this work, a green hydrothermal method was utilised to synthesise NiO nanoparticles (NiO-NPs) as an effective and low cost adsorbent for dye adsorption from aqueous medium. The product was characterised using powder XRD, FTIR and SEM techniques and the adsorption behaviour of NiO-NPs was assessed using methyl orange (MO) dye. The maximum removal (97.56 mg/g) of MO onto NiO-NPs was observed at pH 4, adsorbent amount 0.03 g and temperature 40 degrees C. Thence, on evaluating and optimising the factors affecting the adsorption, the results exhibited that 95% dye removal was reached in first 30 min, additionally the adsorption equilibrium, kinetics and thermodynamics models were investigated. The results showed that the adsorption followed Langmuir model and pseudo second order model. The thermodynamic assessment of adsorption of MO onto NiO-NPs indicated the feasibility, endothermic and spontaneous nature with enthalpy and entropy of the system being positive ( increment H degrees = 8.661 KJ/mol, increment S degrees = 7.310 J/mol K). Also, the order of magnitude of increment G degrees and increment H degrees revealed the reversibility of reaction that reflects the adsorbent could be regenerated and potential contender for dyes removal form textile wastes.
