Magnetite (Chitosan-Fe3O4.
) nanocomposite for removal of heavy metals
from aqueous solutions
Objective :
To optimize (RSM) removal of lanthanum metal from waste water using Chitosan-Fe3O4.
RSM
Response surface modeling (RSM) is an empirical statistical technique that uses quantitative data obtained from
appropriately designed experiments to determine regression model and operating conditions (Alam et al., 2007;
Ricou-Hoeffer et al., 2001; Tan et al., 2008).
Optimization studies : Four variables
Adsorbent dose
Temperature
pH of the solution
Reaction time
Box–Behnken design
Due to its Suitability to fit quadratic surface
• 28 experiments were formulated
• The optimum values of the selected variables were obtained
by solving the regression equation
• Each of the parameters was coded at Maximum and minimum
The chosen independent variables used in this study were coded
according to Equation
• xi is the dimensionless coded value
• X0 is the value of Xi at the center point and ∆X is the step change value
The behavior of the system is explained by the following empirical second-order polynomial
model Eq
Variables
Adsorbent dose – 3mg to 10mg
Temperature - 205 C to 605 C
pH of the solution- 3 to 11
Reaction time -10min to 250min
