Abstract

The naturally occurring wastes are rich in many active groups, in addition of non-toxicity and bio-degradability that may be used as an efficient bio-adsorbent in this study, orange peel (OP) wastes were modified by free radical copolymerization with synthetic monomers to form hydrogel by gamma irradiation (AAM/OP) which is a green polymer able to absorb a high dose of polluted dyes like Congo Red dye (CR) from our studied area .the influence of preparation conditions such as radiation dose and the composition of gel were studied. As a result, the swelling behavior of the hydrogel generated was examined using FTIR, SEM, and infrared spectroscopy to determine how swelling duration, medium pH, and hydrogel content affected the results (FTIR). Congo Red dye (CR) was removed from wastewater collected throughout the experiment using the hydrogel generated. Different operational parameters such as pH, contact time, dye concentration, and temperature have been studied to see how they affect the dye's adsorption ability, and the results show that (CR) can be removed from wastewater with high and ecologically friendly efficiency (OP).
