Experimental design and response surface modeling for optimization of humic substances removal by activated carbon: A kinetic and isotherm study
The presence of humic acid (HA) in water treatment processes is very harmful and the cause of undesirable color, taste, and smell. Drinking water containing high concentrations of humic substances can be the cause of many health problems. Therefore, the removal of these compounds from water resources is a very important topic. In this research, response surface methodology (RSM) has been used t...
متن کاملNitrate Removal from Aqueous Solutions Using Granular Activated Carbon Modified with Iron Nanoparticles (RESEARCH NOTE)
Nitrate contamination of water resources and the growing concentration of nitrate endanger human health and the environment and considering its reduction strategies from water resources is important. The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of removal of nitrate from aqueous solutions using granular activated carbon from grape wood coated with iron nanoparticles. The results sho...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic Degradation of the Humic Species as a Method of Their Removal from Water – Comparison of Uv and Artificial Sunlight Irradiation
The possibility of application of the process of photocatalytic decomposition of humic substances (humic acid – HA) to their removal from water was investigated. Commercial TiO2 (Evonic-Degussa P-25) and the periodic reactor were used in the experiments. The decomposition under artificial sunlight (ASL) and UV irradiation was tested. It was stated that ASL irradiation is not sufficient to cause...
متن کاملRemoval of copper (II) from aqueous solutions by adsorption onto granular activated carbon in the presence of competitor ions
In this work, the removal of copper from an aqueous solution by granular activated carbon (GAC) in the presence of competitor ions was studied. A batch adsorption was carried out and different parameters such as pH, contact time, initial copper concentration and competitor ions concentration were changed to determine the optimum conditions for adsorption. The optimum pH required for maximum ads...
متن کاملComparative potential of black tea leaves waste to granular activated carbon in adsorption of endocrine disrupting compounds from aqueous solution
The adsorption properties and mechanics of selected endocrine disrupting compounds; 17 β-estradiol, 17 α – ethinylestradiol and bisphenol A on locally available black tea leaves waste and granular activated carbon were investigated. The results obtained indicated that the kinetics of adsorption were pH, adsorbent dose, contact time and temperature dependent with equilibrium being reached at 20 ...
