Abstract


The treatment of pesticides that cause environmental pollution is an important issue that is actively being studied worldwide. In this study, a material composed of polyaniline and rice husk was synthesized through a chemical method, using different ratios of aniline to rice husk. These materials were analyzed and evaluated using FT-IR spectroscopy and SEM images. Adsorption experiments were conducted to assess the ability of the polyaniline/rice husk material to adsorb DDE, DDD, and DDT under various conditions (such as the nature of the adsorbent, adsorption time, adsorbent mass, and the concentration of the adsorbate). The results showed that the adsorption efficiency ranged from 61.0% to 73.7%. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were applied to study the adsorption process, revealing a maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of 39.41 mg/g and a Freundlich constant (KF) of 3.366. The findings highlight the potential application of the polyaniline/rice husk material for removing DDE, DDD, and DDT from contaminated soil washing extracts.
