Abstract
How to effectively remove toxic dyes from the industrial wastewater using a green low-cost lignocellulose-based adsorbent, such as lignin, has become a topic of great interest but remains quite challenging. In this study, cosolvent-enhanced lignocellulosic fractionation (CELF) pretreatment and Mannich reaction were combined to generate an aminated CELF lignin which is subsequently applied for removal of methylene blue and direct blue (DB) 1 dye from aqueous solution. 31P NMR was used to track the degree of amination, and an orthogonal design was applied to determine the relationship between the extent of amination and reaction parameters. The physicochemical, morphological, and thermal properties of the aminated CELF lignin were characterized to confirm the successful grafting of diethylenetriamine onto the lignin. The aminated CELF lignin proved to be an effective azo dye-adsorbent, demonstrating considerably enhanced dye decolorization, especially toward DB 1 dye (>90%). It had a maximum adsorption capacity of DB 1 dye of 502.7 mg/g, and the kinetic study suggested the adsorption process conformed to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The isotherm results also showed that the modified lignin-based adsorbent exhibited monolayer adsorption. The adsorbent properties were mainly attributed to the incorporated amine functionalities as well as the increased specific surface area of the aminated CELF lignin.

Abstract
Sodium lignosulfonate is a polymer with extensive sources and abundant functional groups. Therefore, it has potential value for research and wide utilization. In this study, the adsorption material was prepared by blending sodium lignosulfonate and chitosan, which could adsorb anionic and cationic dyes and metal ions. The composite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermogravimetry (TG). The results showed that the composite was cross-linked mainly by the strong electrostatic interaction between the protonated amino group in chitosan and the sulfonate group in sodium lignosulfonate. Moreover, the effects of initial concentration, adsorption time, initial pH, and mass ratio of chitosan to sodium lignosulfonate on the adsorption performance of the composite were investigated. Meanwhile, the adsorption processes were agreed well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption mechanism was that the electrostatic interaction between the protonated amino and hydroxyl groups of the composite with anionic (SO3 -) and HCrO4 - groups of Congo red and Cr(VI), respectively. In addition, the electrostatic interaction between SO3 - of the composite and positively charged group of Rhodamine B played an important role in the adsorption of Rhodamine B.
