    Abstract:
    In this study, a cost-effective adsorbent based on sodium alginate (SA) with waste foundry dust (WFD) was fabricated for the removal of methyl red (MR) from aqueous media. However, the utilization of WFD/SA beads to remove anionic dyes (such as MR) from effluents has limitations associated with their functional groups. To improve the adsorption performance, WFD/SA-polyethyleneimine (PEI) beads were formed via PEI crosslinking onto WFD/SA beads, which could be attributed to the formation of amide bonds from the carboxyl and amino groups due to the change of N-H bonds in the reaction. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results indicated that PEI was crosslinked on the WFD/SA via a chemical reaction. In the FTIR spectra of WFD/SA-PEI, peaks of the -COO (asymmetric) stretching vibration shifted to 1598 and 1395 cm-1, which could be attributed to the hydrogen-bonding effect of the N-H groups in PEI. In the N1s spectrum, three deconvoluted peaks were assigned to N in -N= (398.2 eV), -NH/-NH2 (399.6 eV), and NO2 (405.2 eV). WFD/SA-PEI beads were assessed and optimized for aqueous MR adsorption. The WFD/SA-PEI beads showed a high removal efficiency for MR (89.1%) at an initial concentration of 1000 mg/L, and presented a maximum MR adsorption capacity of 672.7 mg/g MR. The adsorption process showed a good fit with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. The amino and hydroxyl groups in the WFD/SA-PEI beads facilitate strong hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions. Moreover, these WFD/SA-PEI beads were easily recovered after the adsorption process.
