【 摘 要 】

Abstract The green adsorbents were prepared by using cranberry (Cornus mas) kernel shell (CKS), rosehip (Rosa canina) seed shell (RSS), and banana (Musa cavendishii) peel (BP) and were proved in removing Cr(VI). Several parameters to remove Cr(VI) such as pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time, initial Cr(VI) ions concentration, and temperature were tested. The functional groups in the matrix of CKS, RSS, and BP were detected by FT-IR for raw biomasses together with Cr(VI). The equilibrium results were inspected using four different isotherm models, with a better fitting to the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption quantities for Cr(VI) ions were 10.42, 15.17, and 6.81 mg/g for BP, RSS, and CKS, respectively. The interrelationship coefficients were expressed by a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, assuming that the overall Cr(VI) adsorption rate is limited by the rate of adsorbate diffusion in the pores of biomass.
