In this study, raspberry leaves were converted into powder and used as a new low-cost adsorbent for removing methylene blue from aqueous solutions. Various techniques were applied for characterizing the adsorbent, and the effects of pH, ionic strength, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial concentration, and temperature on adsorption capacity were investigated. The research showed that the adsorption process is spontaneous, favorable, and endothermic, and the maximum adsorption capacity of the raspberry leaf powder was higher compared to other plant leaf-based adsorbents.
In this work, raspberry (Rubus idaeus) leaves were converted to powder and used as a new natural lignocellulosic low-cost adsorbent for methylene blue removal from aqueous solutions. Different techniques (FTIR, SEM, color analysis, and pH(PZC) determination) were applied for adsorbent characterization. The effects of pH, ionic strength, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial deconcentration, and temperature on adsorption capacity were investigated. Equilibrium, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies have shown that the adsorption is best described by the Sips isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic model and that the process is spontaneous, favorable, and endothermic, involving physisorption as the main mechanism. The maximum adsorption capacity was 244.6 (mg g(-1)) higher compared to other adsorbents based on plant leaves. The Taguchi method and the ANOVA analysis were used to optimize the adsorption conditions. The contact time was the factor with the highest influence on the process, while the temperature had the lowest influence. A desorption study was also performed to determine the possibility of adsorbent regeneration.
