The objective of this work is to study the activation regeneration of spent diatomaceous earth (SDE) for the preparation of silica adsorbents using thermal regeneration and acid/alkaline activation methods. Under the experimental conditions investigated, it was found that the alkaline activation method carried out by sodium hydroxide under controlled conditions is significantly superior to other heat and activation methods. The porosities of solids thus obtained are over 0.2, indicating that they are basically mesoporous. The optimal porous material thus prepared was used as a mineral adsorbent for methylene blue at 25 degreesC. The adsorption equilibrium revealed that the silica adsorbent can take up over 50 mg/g at relatively low concentrations in aqueous medium from the fittings of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms with high correlations. On the other hand, the adsorption kinetic of methylene blue under various adsorbent dosages can be well described with a pseudo-second-order reaction model. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc.
