ABSTRACT
This research investigates the application of an innovative bio-nanocomposite, Fenugreek seed mucilage/silicon carbide (FSM/SiC), as an exceptionally effective adsorbent for eliminating cadmium ions from aqueous solutions. Optimization of fenugreek mucilage extraction involved ultrasonic methods, establishing ideal conditions with a solid-to-solvent ratio of 155, 50 °C temperature, 37 kHz frequency, 100 % power, and 30 min processing time. Comprehensive characterization through FTIR spectroscopy, XRD, imaging, DLS, and SEM confirmed the preservation of crucial adsorption-related characteristics. Enhanced adsorption efficiency was achieved by systematically adjusting pH, temperature, adsorbent concentration, pollutant concentration, and contact time, identifying optimal conditions at pH 6, 0.03 g adsorbent dosage, 35 min contact time, and 30 mg/L initial cadmium concentration at 30 °C. Adsorption kinetics followed a pseudo-second-order model, while the Langmuir isotherm fit suggested monolayered adsorption. Thermodynamic analysis indicated exothermic and spontaneous Cd2+ ion adsorption onto FSM/SiC. Remarkably, FSM/SiC demonstrated exceptional regeneration potential, positioning it as a promising solution for water decontamination and environmental remediation. This research showcases FSM/SiC's potential with a maximum adsorption capacity of 41.6 mg/g for cadmium ions, highlighting its significance in addressing cadmium contamination.
