Porous ionically crosslinked biofoams were prepared as efficient adsorbents for Eriochrome black-T dye, exhibiting outstanding adsorption performance and stability at various pH conditions. The bioadsorbents presented a 3D interconnected porous structure, facilitating dye adsorption, and demonstrated repeated dye removal capability after multiple adsorption cycles.
Natural polysaccharides are attractive materials for fabrication of eco-friendly biodsorbents for efficient water remediation. However, scarcity of adsorbents that possess features of high stability and adsorption capacity at various pH conditions, low-cost, eco-friendly, and recycleability at the same time still remains a great challenge. Herein, porous ionically crosslinked biofoams were prepared by freeze-drying of chitosan (CS)/sodium alginate (SA) complex (CSA). FTIR and XRD were used to characterize the structure of the bioadsorbents. SEM observations revealed that adsorbents have a 3D interconnected porous structure, which is a favorable morphology for dye adsorption. Accordingly, CSA and its nanocomposite containing 15 wt% cellulose nanofibers (CSAC15) exhibited a fast and efficient adsorption behavior with qm values of 2015 and 2297 mg/g for adsorption of the Eriochrome black-T (EBT) anionic dye, respectively, which are quite outstanding among the developed EBT adsorbents in the literature so far. The CSAC15 preserved its stability and high adsorption capacity at various pH solutions. The adsorption of EBT onto the bioadsorbents was well-described with the pseudo-second order kinetics and Freundlich isotherm. The proposed CSAC15 bioadsorbent featured repeated dye removal capability after five cycles of adsorption.
