Utilization of sunflower marble waste nanocomposites for efficient removal of dyes from wastewater: synthesis, adsorption performance, and characterization

Pollution of dye-contaminated wastewater is increasing rapidly due to the increase in industrialisation. This research was designed to investigate the potential of sunflower marble waste for the removal of dyes, reactive black 5 and NOVAC black WNN, from wastewater using an adsorption process becaus...

Kinetic models (pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order) were tested to identify the potential of the adsorption process which showed that both the dyes followed second-order kinetics at equilibrium because their R2 > 0.9 and q experimental and q calculated were close to each other. Life cycle assessment (LCA) for synthesizing 1 kg of nanocomposite showed that SMP had lower values over all six environmental impacts than the others.
