Sustainable hybrid silica extracted from rice husk with polyvinyl alcohol and nicotinic acid as multi adsorbent for textile wastewater treatment

Hasanin, Mohamed S.
A new eco-friendly compound was prepared for the treatment of textile wastewater containing mixed dyes with various ranges of toxicity. Porous silica was extracted from a black liquor by-product using a simple method and characterized by porous morphology (the pore size ranged between 12 and 41 nm). The silica is the main corrosive agent present in the black liquor; thus, the extraction of silica from the black liquor was considered detoxification process. The extracted porous silica was used as a precursor material to prepare the hybrid material based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a binder polymer and functionalized by nicotinic acid. The multifunction prepared hybrid was characterized by FT-IR, TGA, DTGA, SEM, and EDX. The porous size of the prepared hybrid varied from 96 nm to 620 nm and presents a high thermal stability in comparison with its parent materials. The adsorption of cationic and anionic dyes was carried out. The adsorption kinetics parameters were fitted with pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models for methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB), respectively. The adsorption parameters indicated that the Langmuir model is better to describe the adsorption of dyes on the hybrid material. The maximum adsorption capacity was 484 and 771 mg/g for MO and MB, respectively.
