Descriptive data on trichloroethylene and Congo red dye adsorption from wastewater using bio nanosponge phosphorylated-carbon nanotube/nanoparticles polyurethane composite.

The availability and quality of water resources is currently the primary concern in Southern Africa. The challenge is to improve or develop water treatment materials or methods to solve this problem of potable water scarcity. Hence, this article presents the analyzed data, which are supplementary data information on the study of bio nanosponge phosphorylated-carbon nanotube/nanoparticles polyurethane composite (pMWCNT/β-CD/TiO2-Ag) as polymeric nanobiosorbent, for water treatment. The developed polymeric nanobiosorbent (pMWCNT/β-CD/TiO2-Ag) was synthesized using combined methods of amidation reaction, cross polymerization, and sol-gel process. The removal of water pollutants (trichloroethylene (TCE) and Congo red (CR) dye) was conducted by the batch adsorption method. The conditions used during the adsorption experiments and methods (applied to quantify the water samples after adsorption studies) are described. Additional data obtained on the effect of pH, isotherm, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies are also illustrated当前，水资源的可获取性与水质是南非地区面临的首要关切问题。亟需改进或研发水处理材料与方法，以解决饮用水短缺难题。为此，本文公开了经分析的实验数据，这些数据为以生物纳米海绵磷酸化碳纳米管/纳米颗粒聚氨酯复合材料（pMWCNT/β-CD/TiO2-Ag）作为聚合纳米生物吸附剂（polymeric nanobiosorbent）开展的水处理研究提供了补充数据集信息。所研制的聚合纳米生物吸附剂通过酰胺化反应、交叉聚合与溶胶-凝胶法相结合的方式合成得到。研究采用批量吸附法对水体污染物三氯乙烯（trichloroethylene, TCE）与刚果红（Congo red, CR）染料进行去除实验。本文详述了吸附实验过程中所用的各项参数条件，以及吸附实验后用于定量检测水样的相关方法。此外，本文还展示了关于pH影响、吸附等温线、吸附动力学及热力学研究的补充实验数据。
