Abstract
The current study emphasizes the fabrications of Cadmium Oxide by extremity up approach adopting co-precipitation procedure. The surface morphology of fabricated Nano composites cadmium oxide was analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microcopy (SEM) techniques. The treatment of simulated dyes wastewater was carried out by adsorption method using CdO Nano composites. In addition Malachite Green Oxalate (MGO) was selected as a model replicated system of dye wastewater, to explore the potential practicability for the elimination of the toxic dye. The adsorption experiments were heralded under the optimized conditions like adsorbent dosage, dye concentration and temperature. The acceptability of adsorption progression was estimated by proceeding adsorption models like Freundlich, Langmuir and D-R (Dubinin–Radushkevich). The values of R 2 show that Freundlich model is the best fitted model. The thermodynamic study was conducted to determine the values of free energy (∆G°), entropy (∆S°) and enthalpy (∆H°) change of the system. Adsorption Kinetic was also studied by Boyd’s model. The results demonstrated that adsorption efficiency was found to be 93% for Cadmium Oxidedye-Nano composites systems. The present model system can be employed on industrial scale as a single step process for the removal of dye pollutants and thus it could provide a new raised area for waste minimization.
