Adsorption of basic fuchsin using soybean straw hydrolyzed by subcritical water

The valorization of agro-industrial residues can be improved through their full use, making the production of second-generation ethanol viable. In this scenario, hydrolyzed soybean straw generated from a subcritical water process was applied to the basic fuchsin adsorption. At pH eight, a high adsorption capacity was obtained. The mass test results showed that basic fuchsin’s removal and adsorption capacity could be maximized with an adsorbent dosage of 0.9 g L−1. The linear driving force model was suitable for predicting the kinetic profile, and the kinetic curves showed that equilibrium was reached with only 30 min of contact time. Besides, the Langmuir model was the best to predict the adsorption isotherms. The thermodynamic parameters revealed a spontaneous and endothermic process. At 328 K, there is maximum adsorption capacity (72.9 mg g−1). Therefore, it can be stated that this material could be competitive in terms of adsorption capacity coupled with the idea of full use of waste.
