Aminated Rapeseed Husks (Brassica napus) as an Effective Sorbent for Removing Anionic Dyes from Aqueous Solutions
2024

The study investigated the effect of modifying rapeseed husks with ammonia and epichlorohydrin on their sorption capacity against anionic reactive dyes: Reactive Black 5 (RB5) and Reactive Yellow 84 (RY84). Its scope included sorbents characterization (FTIR, pHPZC), determination of pH influence on the sorption effectiveness of dyes, the adsorption kinetics of dyes, as well as the maximum sorption capacity. The study proved that the reaction of rapeseed husk biomass with ammonia can lead to its amination, namely to the introduction of amine functional groups into the material&rsquo:s structure. The sorption effectiveness of RB5 and RY84 on the tested sorbents was the highest in the pH range of 2&ndash:3. The dye sorption kinetics was well described by the pseudo-second-order model. The sorption equilibrium time ranged from 90 to 180 min, and depended on the initial concentration of dyes and the number of amino groups on the sorbent&rsquo:s surface. The most efficient of the sorbents tested were rapeseed husks pre-activated with epichlorohydrin and then aminated with ammonia. Their sorption capacity determined for RB5 and RY84 was 135.83 mg/g and 114.23 mg/g, respectively, which was 794% and 737% higher than that of the non-modified husks.
