Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 1Cross-Linked Carboxymethyl Cellulose Biosorbent for Zinc Removal: a Sustainable Remediation of Heavy Metal-Polluted Waters(Springer Heidelberg, 2025) Celgan, Dilber; Karadag, Asiye; Karim, Barna Jalaluddin Mohammad; Recepoglu, Yasar Kemal; Arar, OzgurThis study focuses on the preparation and characterization of cross-linked carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) biosorbent for efficient removal of Zn2(+) ions from aqueous solutions. The microstructural features of the biosorbent were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), while elemental analysis was conducted using an elemental analyzer to determine carbon (C), hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N), and sulfur (S) content. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was employed to identify functional groups within the biosorbent. Sorption experiments revealed that increasing the biosorbent dose led to higher Zn2(+) removal rates until equilibrium was reached. The optimal pH for Zn2(+) removal was determined to be >= 5, attributed to the conversion of acetate group to its ionic form. Rapid kinetics were observed, with 99% removal achieved within 5 min. The biosorbent exhibited a maximum sorption capacity of 10.809 mg/g and a removal rate of 99% at pH 5. Desorption studies demonstrated efficient Zn2(+) recovery using 0.25 M HCl solution, with a total desorption rate exceeding 99%. The findings indicate the potential for cost-effective regeneration of the biosorbent using dilute acid solutions, enhancing its sustainability and practical applicability in water purification processes. Additionally, the biosorbent's selectivity for Zn2(+) ions over competing ions and its effectiveness in treating real water samples, including those containing Na+, K+, Ca2(+), and Mg2(+), highlight its suitability for practical water purification applications.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15Chitosan-Immobilized Pumice for the Removal of As(v) From Waters(Springer Verlag, 2014) Turan, Dilek; Kocahakimoğlu, Cemre; Boyacı, Ezel; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Eroğlu, Ahmet EminA novel sorbent, chitosan-immobilized pumice, has been prepared for the sorption of As(V) from waters prior to its determination by hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry. The success of the immobilization has been checked with such characterization techniques as scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and elemental analysis. Points of zero charge of the sorbents were determined with potentiometric mass titration. Batch-type equilibration studies have shown that the novel sorbent can be employed at a wide pH range resulting in quantitative sorption (>90 %) at pH 3.0-7.0 and greater than 70 % sorption at pH >8.0. These results demonstrate the advantage of immobilizing chitosan onto pumice, because, under the same conditions, pumice displays <20 % sorption toward As(V), whereas chitosan gives approximately 90%sorption only at pH 3.0. The validity of the method was verified through the analysis of ultrapure, bottled drinking, and tap water samples spiked with arsenate; the respective sorption percentages of 93.2 (±0.7), 89.0 (±1.0), and 80.9 (±1.3) were obtained by batch-type equilibration. Arsenic sorption was also examined in the presence of common interfering ions resulting in competing effects of PO3- 4 and NO- 3on As(V) adsorption.
