Abstract

Methyl orange dye is an organic pollutant often found in textile industry waste and harms the environment due to its nature, which makes it difficult to decompose naturally. One method that has attracted attention in its processing is the Photo-Fenton process, which utilizes hydroxyl radicals (•OH) as powerful degradation agents. This article summarizes recent developments in applying heterogeneous Photo-Fenton to Methyl Orange degradation, focusing on degradation efficiency, factors influencing reactions, and degradation pathways. This study discusses the influence of reaction parameters such as initial pH, H₂O₂ concentration, catalyst concentration and light intensity on the degradation rate. In addition, various types of heterogeneous catalysts, including metal oxide-based and ferrous composites, were analyzed based on their effectiveness and stability in the Photo-Fenton system. The Methyl Orange degradation pathway is proposed based on an intermediate product identified in previous studies, suggesting that the reaction proceeds through a gradual oxidation mechanism until simpler and more environmentally friendly compounds are formed. The results of this study show that the heterogeneous Photo-Fenton system provides advantages over homogeneous systems, especially in increasing degradation efficiency and prolonging the catalyst reactivity cycle. The use of heterogeneous catalysts allows for the formation of larger numbers of active species, thus accelerating the breaking of the Methyl Orange structure. In addition, further research is needed to improve the stability of the catalyst, optimize reaction conditions, and evaluate its potential application on an industrial scale. This study will be a reference for developing a more efficient and sustainable Photo-Fenton-based waste treatment method.

Abstract

Desorpsi adalah tahap di mana molekul, ion atau partikel yang sebelumnya diserap oleh adsorben dilepaskan lagi. Proses ini digunakan untuk meregenerasi adsorben sehingga dapat digunakan kembali. Pada penelitian ini dilakukan desorpsi terhadap kation tembaga yang telah teradsorpsi pada adsorben silika gel-GPTMS yang telah dimodifikasi dengan sulfonat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui eluen mana yang paling efektif dalam desorbing antara 0,025 M NaCl dan 0,025 M CaCl2. Setelah eluen dengan efisiensi desorpsi yang lebih tinggi telah diidentifikasi, variasi konsentrasi dan laju aliran optimal dilakukan dalam desorpsi kation tembaga. Keberhasilan modifikasi adsorben dan proses desorpsi dan adsorpsi dievaluasi menggunakan FTIR, XRF, titrasi potensiometri, dan AAS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 0,025 M CaCl2 memiliki persentase desorpsi yang lebih tinggi yaitu 95,17% dibandingkan dengan 0,025 M NaCl yang hanya mencapai 59,29%. Pada berbagai konsentrasi CaCl2, dengan kondisi konsentrasi optimal ditemukan pada 0,05 M dengan persentase desorpsi mencapai 100%, dan jumlah Cu2+ yang terdesorpsi adalah 0,1425 mg pada silika gel-GPTMS sulfonat. Oleh karena itu, dapat disimpulkan bahwa ion kalsium berhasil mendesorpsi kation tembaga yang telah teradsorpsi pada silika gel-GPTMS yang dimodifikasi dengan sulfonat.

Abstract

Batubara dimanfaatkan sebagai sumber pembangkit listrik tenaga batu bara (PLTU) melalui pembakaran yang menghasilkan limbah fly ash. Fly ash mengandung berbagai bahan kimia seperti SiO2 ; Al2O3 ; Fe2O3 . Kandungan kimia yang potensial tersebut menjadikan fly ash dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai adsorben logam berat dan zat warna dengan membentuk silika xerogel. Untuk meningkatkan kadar silika oksida pada fly ash dilakukan proses pencucian dengan berbagai pelarut. Hasil yang diperoleh setelah pencucian dengan HNO3 sebesar 55,424%, sedangkan kadar SiO2 pada fly ash setelah pencucian dengan NaOH hanya sebesar 45,551%. Namun kedua hasil tersebut masih berada di bawah kadar SiO2 pada fly ash setelah pencucian dengan HCl pada penelitian sebelumnya yaitu sebesar 56,777%. Netralisasi natrium silikat dengan HCl 3M menghasilkan %yield sebesar 24%; HCl 5M menghasilkan %yield sebesar 68,4%; dan konsentrasi HCl 7M menghasilkan %yield sebesar 80,8%. dengan kadar SiO2 tertinggi pada saat menggunakan HCl 3M mencapai 40,41%.

Abstract

The use of Cr (Chromium) in industry and daily life produces toxic waste harmful to humans and the environment. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of activated carbon from corn cobs as an adsorbent for Cr(VI) heavy metal. Corn cobs, which contain 40–44% cellulose, were carbonized at 500°C using 6% sodium carbonate and characterized with an IR spectrophotometer. Adsorption tests were conducted by varying pH and contact time to determine optimal conditions. FTIR results revealed functional groups such as C≡C stretch, C=C=C stretch, and C–O bend. After activation, O–H groups appeared, indicating the presence of aromatic compounds, which are typical in activated carbon. The optimum pH for Cr(VI) adsorption was pH 4, with an adsorption rate of 65.35%. The optimum contact time was 60 minutes, resulting in 3.2% Cr(VI) adsorbed and a maximum adsorption capacity of 0.089 mg/g. In conclusion, corn cobs are a promising, eco-friendly, and effective natural material for adsorbing Cr(VI) heavy metal ions.

Abstract

Coal is an organic mineral from ancient plant remains that settles and goes through physical or chemical processes over a period of up to millions of years. Coal is used as a source of steam-powered electrical energy through combustion which produces fly ash waste. fly ash contains various chemical materials such as SiO2; Al2O3; Fe2O3. The potential chemical content makes fly ash which can be used as an adsorbent for heavy metals and dyes by forming silica xerogel. To increase the silica oxide content in fly ash, a washing process is carried out with various solvents. Research on the adsorption of methylene blue dye using silica xerogel from fly ash with variations in contact time. The results showed that silica xerogel from fly ash was able to adsorb methylene blue dye at a contact time of 90 minutes. Adsorption kinetics follows a pseudo second order model with an R2 value that is better than pseudo first order. It can be seen that the R2 value respectively shows a linear regression of 0.703 for pseudo first order and 1 for pseudo second order.

Abstract

Polystyrene (PS) microplastics from styrofoam waste are persistent contaminants that are difficult to degrade naturally in aquatic environments and require effective extraction methods for analysis and mitigation. This study aims to determine the optimal conditions of Fe(II) concentration and heating temperature in the Wet Peroxide Oxidation (WPO) method for extracting PS microplastics, as well as to identify their functional groups and elemental composition. The method involved treating polluted water samples using WPO solution consisting of Fe(II) as a catalyst and 30% H₂O₂ as an oxidizing agent, with Fe(II) concentrations of 0.075 M, 0.1 M, and 0.125 M, and heating temperatures of 60°C, 75°C, and 90°C. Microplastic identification was conducted using FTIR and XRF instruments. The results showed that the optimal Fe(II) concentration was 0.125 M, yielding 1.27 grams of microplastics, while the optimal temperature was 60°C, yielding 2.58 grams of microplastics. FTIR characterization confirmed the presence of characteristic PS functional groups, including C-H bending of the benzene ring at 753.22 cm⁻¹ and aliphatic C-H stretching at 2919.27 cm⁻¹, which were also detected in samples from enclosed environments. XRF analysis under optimal conditions indicated that the elemental composition of the extracted microplastics was not entirely pure due to residual contaminants. These findings confirm the effectiveness of the WPO method for extracting PS microplastics under optimized operational conditions.

Abstract

Fly ash, a byproduct of coal combustion produced continuously, poses significant environmental risks if not utilized effectively. Its high silica content presents potential for conversion into silica xerogel, which can function as an adsorbent for heavy metal ions such as Cr³⁺. This study aims to analyze the SiO₂ content in synthesized silica xerogel using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysis and to determine its optimum adsorption capacity based on variations in pH and Cr³⁺ ion concentration. Optimization was carried out at varying pH levels (2–6) and concentrations (100–300 ppm). XRF analysis revealed that the SiO₂ content in fly ash pretreated with 3M HCl was 54.167%, while the synthesized silica xerogel exhibited an increased SiO₂ content of 69.09%, with a %yield of 54.825%, indicating a relatively high silica purity. Adsorption tests showed maximum adsorption capacity at pH 4 and a Cr³⁺ concentration of 200 ppm, reaching 26.76 mg/g. The adsorption isotherm followed the Langmuir model with a determination coefficient of R² = 0.9509, indicating a strong fit between the model and the experimental data. These findings suggest that silica xerogel derived from fly ash holds promise as an effective adsorbent for heavy metal wastewater treatment.

Abstract

Contamination by heavy metal ions such as Cu²⁺ in water sources poses a serious environmental issue due to their toxic effects on living organisms. This study aims to evaluate the adsorption kinetics of Cu²⁺ ions using silica xerogel synthesized from fly ash. The synthesis was carried out via the sol-gel method, and material characterization was performed using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) to determine the silica content. The adsorption process was conducted in batch mode with contact time variations of 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 minutes. Analysis results showed that the fly ash contained 54.167% silica, and the optimal adsorption capacity was achieved at 150 minutes with a value of 44.982 mg/g. The adsorption kinetics were best described by the pseudo-second-order model, indicated by a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.99947, suggesting that the adsorption process follows a chemisorption mechanism. These findings imply that silica xerogel derived from fly ash has significant potential as an effective adsorbent for environmental remediation of Cu²⁺ ion contamination.
