Özet

In this study, waste cigarette butts (CBs) were processed to produce electrospun cellulose acetate (CA) nanofibrous membranes modified with polyaniline (PANI) via chemical oxidation polymerization. This cost-effective method of preparing CA coated with PANI was initially investigated by comparing CA, CA-PANI, and CA-dPANI (as deprotonated PANI) for the rapid adsorption of cationic and anionic dyes. The results depicted CA-PANI with the highest dye removal capacity. As the optimum material, CA-PANI was applied to remove methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine chloride (RC) dye from an aqueous phase. Essential factors: contact time, solution pH, initial dye concentration, nanofiber dosage, and temperature of solution were evaluated with maximum equilibrium adsorption capacity and removal percentage achieved for MO as 24.87 mg/g and 99 %, for RC as 6.93 mg/g and 55 %, respectively. The adsorptive experimental data for both dyes best fitted the pseudo -second -order kinetic, intraparticle diffusion, and Freundlich models. Moreover, the thermodynamics result indicated the adsorption processes were exothermic and spontaneous in nature. Reusability studies also showed the stable performance of CA-PANI material for up to 7 adsorption -desorption cycles. The high dye removal efficiency suggests that the adsorbent material in the water filtration of azo dyes.
