Sumario:This study shows the effect of conditions on methylene blue sorption from aqueous solutions using amorphous silicon dioxide obtained from rice husk by oxidative roasting with and without pre-treatment with 0.1 M HCl. Adsorption activity for methylene blue increases with increasing pH, reaching its maximum above the point of zero charge. Thermodynamic parameter values (ΔG298 > 0, ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0) indicate that methylene blue adsorption is exothermic and occurs with an increase in molecular mobility in the adsorption layer. The process is described by the Freundlich and Dubinin-Astakhov equations, which indicates that it is determined by both electrostatic interaction with active centers on the surface and the volumetric filling of micropores.
