Artificial Neural Network Modeling for Adsorption Efficiency of Cr(VI) Ion from Aqueous Solution Using Waste Tire Activated Carbon
2023
Gaurav Meena and Nekram Rawal
In this study, waste tires were used to develop activated carbon for the adsorption of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions, and an artificial neural network (ANN) model was applied to predict the adsorption efficiency of waste-tire activated carbon (WTAC). SEM and FTIR were used to characterize the developed WTAC. A three-layer ANN with different training algorithms and hidden layers with different numbers of neurons was developed using 79 data sets gathered from batch adsorption experiments with different initial Cr(VI) ion concentrations, contact periods, temperatures, and doses. Conjugate gradient backpropagation of Powell-Beale restarts (traincgb) was found to be the best training algorithm among all the training algorithms, with an RMSE of 5.894 and an R2 of 0.985. The ANN topology had 4, 8, and 4 neurons in the input, hidden, and output layers. The correlation coefficient of the ANN models of Cr(VI) ion adsorption efficiency is 0.977.
