jute modified has been used for adsorption of cr (vi), cd (ii) and pb (ii) ions over a range ofinitial metal ion concentration. adsorption process is done in batch mode. adsorption isotherms ofthe heavy metals on adsorbents prepared were determined and correlated with common isothermequations. it was found that the freundlich isotherm is better than langmuir for explaining thebehavior of adsorp...

biochar and activated carbon, as carbon-rich porous materials, have wide environmental applications. in the present research, rice husk (rh) was used for preparation of biochar at 400, 600, and 800 °c under simple pyrolysis, physically-activated carbon with water steam, chemically-activated carbon with potassium hydroxide (koh), and physiochemically-activated carbon with koh and steam. physical...

Adsorption plays an important role in water and wastewater treatment. The analysis and design of processes that involve adsorption rely on the availability of isotherms that describe these adsorption processes. Adsorption isotherms are usually estimated empirically from measurements of the adsorption process variables. Unfortunately, these measurements are usually contaminated with errors that ...

Over a range of concentrations from less than 0.1 mm to more than 70 mm, sweet potato root mitochondria display a bimodal substrate saturation isotherm for malate. The high affinity portion of the isotherm has an apparent Km for malate of 0.85 mm and fits a rectangular hyperbolic function. The low affinity portion of the isotherm is sigmoid in character and gives an apparent S(0.5) of 40.6 mm a...

considering the point that the existence of heavy metals in the wastewater are so dangerous forthe environment and it would have many bad consequences for all the creatures including human beings, wemust try out the ways that make us capable of adsorbing these heavy metals. in order to accomplish this goal we should use a method called adsorbing. in this study the adsorption of copper ions in h...

Association constants were determined for absorption of the sex-specific agglutinin from mating type 5 of Hansenula wingei by cells of type 21, the opposite mating type. Absorption was determined by following the radiolabeled sulfur in purified agglutinin extracted from cells grown in 35S-labeled medium. Association was proved to be reversible under conditions where cell agglutination was In se...
