Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society, Section A: Chemistry, 8(1), 47-56.2149-01202149-0120https://doi.org10.18596/jotcsa. 760083https://app.trdizin.gov.tr/makale/TXprMk16WXdNQT09https://hdl.handle.net/11491/8272In this study, the use of calcined eggshell (CE) as an adsorbent in removing Victoria Blue R (VBR) dyestuff from the solution medium was investigated. For this purpose, pH, interaction time, adsorbate concentration, amount of adsorbent, and salt effect parameters were studied to determine the appropriate adsorption conditions. The highest adsorption yield was obtained at pH 2, 2.0 g/L adsorbent, and a stirring time of 5 minutes. 97% of the dye was removed under optimum adsorption conditions. The results obtained from the experimental studies showed that the adsorption mechanism is compatible with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. SEM and IR analysis were performed for the characterization of CE.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTextile dyeCalcined eggshellWater treatmentWastewaterAdsorptionVictoria Blue R.Article81475610.18596/jotcsa. 760083Q3
