Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 14Isotherms, Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Pb(II) Adsorption by Crosslinked Chitosan/Sepiolite Composite(Springer, 2021-04-13) Senol-Arslan, DilekA novel composite adsorbent was prepared from chitosan (Ch) and sepiolite (S) for removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The Ch-S composite beads were successfully synthesized by crosslinking epichlorohydrin (ECH) and tripolyphosphate (NaTPP). A number of physicochemical parameters such as, pH, initial Pb(II) concentration, temperature, contact time and desorption have been studied during the adsorption process. Experimental data acquired from batch adsorption tests have been analyzed by three isotherm models (Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich), and three kinetic models including the pseudo-first-order, the pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion equations using nonlinear regression technique. Langmuir isotherm was the best to fit the experimental data (R-2 = 0.971). The maximum adsorption capacity was 0.158 mol kg(-1) from Langmuir isotherm model. Maximum removal efficiency was found approximately 66% for the initial Pb(II) concentration of 1000 mg/L, adsorbent dosage of 100 mg and agitation speed of 150 rpm at pH 4.5. The adsorption free energy was found as E-DR (15.8 kJ mol(-1)), which indicated that Pb(II) adsorption process onto Ch-S composite was chemically performed. The kinetic studies have shown that the best fitted kinetic model is the pseudo-first order (R-2 = 0.979). Adsorption enthalpy value was determined as 18.7 kJ mol(-1), adsorption entropy was found as 106 J mol(-1) K-1, and Gibbs free energy was found as 12.9 kJ mol(-1). The thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of Pb(II) on Ch-S was endothermic, possible and spontaneous.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Eco-Friendly Fabrication of Cellulose-Derived Polyvinylidene Fluoride Membranes From Wastepaper for Efficient Fe(II) Removal From Mine Wastewater(Wiley, 2025-08-15) Gul, Ayse; Senol-Arslan, DilekThis study investigates the feasibility of utilizing cellulose membranes derived from wastepaper to remove Fe(II) ions from mine wastewater. In this context, the recycled material cellulose was employed in the membrane synthesis process to produce an environmentally friendly membrane that efficiently removes Fe(II) ions. Furthermore, the study proposes a cost-effective and sustainable solution for removing heavy metals, with comprehensive analysis and experimentation on the potential application of cellulose membranes in the treatment of mine wastewater. The membranes were fabricated from polyvinylidene fluoride (C2H2F2)n (PVDF) and cellulose nanoparticles (CNs) produced from wastepaper by a common phase inversion method. Water filtration and Fe(II) rejection tests were operated on a batch scale. The fabricated CNs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and SEM-energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyses. Water permeability, contact angle, SEM-EDX analysis and FTIR were used to analyze PVDF/CN membranes. The water flux for PVDF and PVDF + CN membranes increased from 164.5 to 2241 L m-2 h-1 on the addition of CNs from 1% to 3%. The experimental results demonstrate the best cellulose membrane containing 11% PVDF + 2% CN effectively removed approximately 58% of Fe(II). The findings of this research emphasize the importance of environmentally friendly approaches in addressing clean water challenges and highlight the reuse potential of waste materials for innovative applications. Consequently, this study provides an alternative to the development of sustainable and cost-effective solutions for wastewater treatment in accordance with the principles of circular economy and environmental sustainability.
