Abstract

Nanocomposites of ordered mesoporous carbon with silica coated magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2-CMK-8, MNCs) were synthesized by carbonizing sucrose inside the pores of the Kit-6 mesoporous silica and used to remove Ponceau 4R from aqueous solutions. The synthesized adsorbent was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Transmission electron microscope (TEM). In order to survey the effective parameters on dye removal efficiency, the factorial design was applied. At the optimum conditions (pH: 2, adsorbent dosage: 0.1 g, contact time: 20 min and ionic strength: 0.05 mol L−1), the evaluation of four isotherm models was carried out and isotherm data were matched well with Freundlich model (R2 = 0.9988, n = 1.633). Kinetic studies showed that the adsorption of Ponceau 4R was better represented by the pseudo-second order kinetics (R2 > 0.999). Finally, the obtained results of real samples showed that the Fe3O4@SiO2-CMK-8 nanocomposite is an effective adsorbent for the rapid removal of Ponceau 4R from aqueous solutions.
