Abstract

The present study explores the applicability of endoskeleton powder from cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) as an adsorbent for removal of chlorpyrifos, a noxious pesticide which causes neuronal disorders in human by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase. The physiochemical properties such as surface area, particle size, elemental analysis, functional group analysis of the adsorbent were studied. The maximum adsorption capacity of cuttlebone powder was 131.5 mg g−1. It was found that intra-particle diffusion is not a rate limiting step in adsorption. In fixed bed column adsorption studies, the effect of initial chlorpyrifos concentration, column bed height and feed flow rate on breakthrough curve was analyzed. The breakthrough point and exhaustion point appeared faster at higher column bed height and lower flow rate. Higher initial chlorpyrifos concentration reduced the time of breakthrough and exhaustion point. The experimental data fitted very well with Yoon–Nelson and Thomas models than that of Adams–Bohart model. Overall, 98% of pesticide removal was achieved at initial chlorpyrifos concentration, 0.4 mg L−1, bed height, 10 cm and flow rate, 1.0 mL min−1
