RT Journal Article T1 Exploring Construction and Demolition Waste as a Sustainable Adsorbent for Efficient Removal of AB113 Dye from Aqueous Solutions A1 Arhoun, Brahim A1 Cerrillo-González, María del Mar A1 Villén-Guzmán, María Dolores A1 Paz-García, Juan Manuel A1 Rodríguez-Maroto, José Miguel K1 Economía circular K1 Materiales de construcción K1 Desarrollo sostenible AB An innovative approach to the treatmentof textile wastewater by utilizing fine fractions ofconstruction and demolition waste (CDW) as a costeffectiveadsorbent is presented in this work. Throughbatch experiments, the impact of key parameters onthe adsorption process was explored, identifying optimalconditions: natural pH, adsorbent dosage (S/L) of20 g L−1, and temperature of 20 °C. The characterizationof CDW was performed using ICP, BET, FTIR,SEM–EDX, XPS, and XRD. The kinetics of adsorptionwere effectively described by the Elovich model,while equilibrium adsorption data showed goodagreement with the Freundlich model. The maximummonolayer adsorption capacity for acid blue AB113dye on CDW obtained from Langmuir isotherm was89.52 mg g–1. Thermodynamic analysis indicated anexothermic and feasible nature of the adsorption process.The results of this study highlight the potentialuse of fine CDW as a promising adsorbent to removeacid blue113 dye from textile wastewater PB Srpinger Nature YR 2025 FD 2025-02 LK https://hdl.handle.net/10630/38026 UL https://hdl.handle.net/10630/38026 LA eng NO Arhoun, B., Cerrillo-Gonzalez, M., Villen-Guzman, M. et al.
