Brilliant green dye adsorption from aquatic medium using an activated carbon/graphene/polyacryl amide composite as a novel effective adsorbent: experimental investigation and factorial design optimization
Abstract
, indicative of monolayer adsorption that exceeds many previously reported composites for BGD removal. Kinetic studies suggested that the adsorption is consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetics, signifying a significant chemisorption mechanism. Furthermore, the AC/G/PAA composite exhibited remarkable reusability for the removal of BGD over four successive cycles, highlighting its potential as an effective, economical, and biodegradable sorbent for sustainable water treatment applications.
