Abstract
Herein, the efficiency of an ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC), synthesized through metal and halide free pathways, is evaluated to remove an anionic dye Chrysoidine R through fixed-bed adsorption. Potentially toxic azo dye, Chrysoidine R, was employed as a test and encouraging results are obtained. The bulk removal of the dye was accomplished with 99.77% column saturation and treatment of the exhausted bed of adsorbent with a suitable eluent resulted in almost 100% dye-recovery. The efficiency of the column remained almost unchanged in five adsorption/desorption cycles. The fixed-bed column studies clearly reveal that the OMC is a highly efficient and robust material for large-scale wastewater treatment applications.
