Abstract—In this study, Reactive Blue-13 (RB-13) dye
removed by solvent impregnated resin (SIR: Amberlite XAD-7
impregnated with Aliquat-336) at different operation conditions.
Batch adsorption studies were dispensed out to gauge the effect
of solution pH, dosages, kinetic, temperature, concentration and
NaCl salt on the adsorption capacity of the adsorbents. Three
kinetic models were chosen to suit the kinetic data; pseudo first
order, second order, and intraparticle.
diffusion. It had been determined that RB-13 dye adsorption
followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. Adsorbent SIR was
characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
(FTIR), Scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and EDX.
Solvent impregnated resin (SIR) was regenerated with 80% (v/v)
ethanol aqueous solution for reuse.
Index Terms—Adsorption, aliquat-336, reactive blue-13,
