The adsorption of methyl orange dye on activated carbon and bentonite type Algerian clay from aqueous solutions was investigated. The bentonite has been acid-activated, whereas the activated carbon was used without pretreatment. The influence of several parameters (kinetics, contact time, sorbent amount, adsorbate concentration and pH) on the adsorption capacity was evaluated and discussed. The methyl orange dye adsorption equilibrium of active carbon is lower than that of bentonite (3 h/1 h), whereas adsorption yield with active carbon is better than that of bentonite. The adsorption capacity of bentonite is lower than that of active carbon. The methyl orange dye adsorption increases with its concentration in the aqueous solutions. The Frendlich and Langmuir models provided the best fit to the experimental data with high correlation coefficient only for active carbon. The kinetic study demonstrated that methyl orange dye adsorption on bentonite was in a good accordance with the pseudo-second- order kinetic model. The results showed that bentonite-type clay gave acceptable results compared with activated carbon and is potential to be used as an economical adsorbent for the removal of methyl orange dye.

A series of samples, noted Al_xCe_{1-x} has been prepared by hydrolysis, from γ-Al₂O₃ and CeO₂. These samples were calcined under air at 450, 900 and 1200°C, and then characterized by specific surface area, X-ray diffraction and thermoreduction programmed under H₂. Obtained results show that after calcination at 450 and 900°C, the cerium decreases the surface of alumina. Results of X-ray diffraction and thermoreduction programmed under H₂ experiments showed that the samples are constituted of: γ-Al₂O₃ and CeO₂. The global consumption of hydrogen increase with rate of CeO₂ added. At 1200°C, the sintering of the samples is very important and γ-Al₂O₃ is transformed into the α-phase. The decrease in specific surface area is more accentuated for Al₁Ce₀ sample, since sintering occurs due to the growth in crystallite size. Thermoreduction programmed under H₂ experiments show that reduction of CeO₂ much more accentuated for ceria samples or its decrease can reflect some alterations of the nature of interactions between Al₂O₃ and CeO₂.
