Conductance of Water-sorbed Activated Carbon: Differentiation of Flow Direction
نویسندگان
چکیده
The conductance of a piece of activated carbon immersed in water has been measured at several different temperatures. The upward and downward flow Qf water as well as the flow in the horizontal direction in the same piece was made possible by using various arrangements of the apparatus. The rate of increase in the conductance has been interpreted as the rate offlow of water into the pores ofactivated carbon.

Removing Copper from Contaminated Water Using Activated Carbon Sorbent by Continuous Flow
Introduction: A major concern of human being is accumulation and toxicity of heavy metals in their body. Copper is a heavy metal ion that in concentration of 2 mg/l can cause numerous complications. Different treatment methods have been proposed for removing metals from contaminated water by researchers. Among these methods, sorption seems a better method with high removal efficiency. In this s...
متن کاملAmmonium removal in granular activated carbon up-flow submerged reactors containing native bacterial consortium
Free ammonium in industries wastewater could be one of the worst toxic contaminants of aquatic life if diluted in water. Biological nitrogen removal (BNR) is the most common method for removing ammonium and nitrate from wastewater. Attached growth and suspended growth are the main BNR systems. The aim of the present work was to study the treatment of petrochemical wastewater (ammonium and nitra...
متن کاملA molecular dynamics simulation of water transport through C and SiC nanotubes: Application for desalination
In this work the conduction of ion-water solution through two discrete bundles of armchair carbon and silicon carbide nanotubes, as useful membranes for water desalination, is studied. In order that studies on different types of nanotubes be comparable, the chiral vectors of C and Si-C nanotubes are selected as (7,7) and (5,5), respectively, so that a similar volume of fluid is investigated ...

متن کاملHydrodynamics and mass transfer inthree-phase airlift reactors for activated Carbon and sludge filtration
A bioreactor refers to any manufactured or engineered device that supports a biologically active environment. These kinds of reactors are designed to treat wastewater treatment. Volumetric mass transfer coefficient and the effect of superficial gas velocity, as the most important operational factor on hydrodynamics, in three-phase airlift reactors are investigated in this study. The experiments...
