    Abstract:
    Herein, a highly efficient and sustainable adsorbent of cross-linked chitosan-glyoxal/algae biocomposite (CHT-GLX/ALG) adsorbent was developed through an innovative hydrothermal cross-linking method. The CHT-GLX/ALG biocomposite was characterized using several complementary analytical methods that include CHN-O, XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDX, and pHpzc. This new adsorbent, named CHT-GLX/ALG, was utilized for the adsorption of a cationic dye (methyl violet 2B; MV 2B), from synthetic wastewater. The optimization of the dye adsorption process involved key parameters is listed: CHT-GLX/ALG dosage (from 0.02 to 0.1 g/100 mL), pH (from 4 to 10), and contact time (from 20 to 180 min) that was conducted using the Box-Behnken design (BBD). The optimal adsorption conditions for the highest decolorization efficiency of MV 2B (97.02 %) were estimated using the statistical model of the Box-Behnken design. These conditions include a fixed adsorbent dosage of 0.099 g/100 mL, pH 9.9, and a 179.9 min contact time. The empirical data of MV 2B adsorption by CHT-GLX/ALG exhibited favorable agreement with the Freundlich isotherm model. The kinetic adsorption profile of MV 2B by CHT-GLX/ALG revealed a good fit with the pseudo-second-order model. The maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) for MV 2B by CHT-GLX/ALG was estimated at 110.8 mg/g. The adsorption of MV 2B onto the adsorbent can be attributed to several factors, including electrostatic interactions between the negatively charged surface of CHT-GLX/ALG and the MV 2B cation, as well as n-π and H-bonding. These interactions play a crucial role in facilitating the effective adsorption of MV 2B onto the biocomposite adsorbent. Generally, this study highlights the potential of CHT-GLX/ALG as an efficient and sustainable adsorbent for the effective removal of organic dyes.
