Two-Stage Batch Adsorber Design Using Pseudo-Secon d-Order Kinetic Model for the Adsorption of Acid B lue 25 Dye onto Peat Pei-Yu Lin 1# , Ming-Huang Wang 1 , Yu-Ting Feng 1 , I-Hsin Lin 1 and Yuh-Shan Ho 2 * 1 School of Public Health, Taipei Medical University 2 Bibliometric Centre, Taipei Medical University - Wan-Fang Hospital Introduction Introduction Batch adsorber design has mainly concentrated on reducing adsorbent costs, which is particularly relevan t when expensive sorbent materials such as active carbon, silica, zeolites and resins are used. But for cheaper adsorbents minimizing the contact time for a fixed percentage of pollution removal using a fixed mass of adsorbent will result in being able to process more batches of polluted wastewater per day, thus enabling the required treatment plant items to be reduced in size, with a decrease in the plant capital cost. This paper studies the adsorption of Acid Blue 25 dye onto peat and develops a two-stage batch ads orber design model. Methods A 0.5 g sample of peat (500-710 m) was added to each 50 ml volume of Acid Blue 25 (AB25) dye solution. The initial concentrations of AB25 dye solution tested were 20, 50, 100 and 200 mg/dm 3 . Samples were wit hdrawn at suitable time intervals, filtered through a filter paper and then analysed AB25 concentration using UV.
