A novel macroporous magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (MMIPs) of was prepared by W/O Pickering (high internal phase emulsions) HIPEs polymerization, and then it was adopted as adsorbent for selective adsorption of λ-cyhalothrin (LC). In static conditions, adsorption capacity of LC increased rapidly in the first 60 min and reached to equilibrium in ~2.0 h. Excellent conformity of the second...

removal of cesium from synthetic aqueous solution through adsorption on vermiculite, under batch equilibrium experimental condition at six initial values of ph (3, 4, 6, 9, 11 and 12) and five temperatures (25, 50, 75, 85 and 95 °c) has been investigated. it is necessary to propose a suitable model for a better understanding of the mechanism of cesium adsorption on vermiculite. for this propose...

A monolithic carbon aerogel with a specific pore texture was used as benzene adsorbent. Adsorption was carried out under static conditions at 25 C and at saturation, an adsorption capacity as high as 0.77 cm.g or 837 mg.g was obtained. This work is devoted to the application of carbon aerogels for the removal of hydroquinone, catechol and resorcinol from aqueous solutions. These materials were ...

Background and purpose: Dyes are one of the main pollutants in the various industrial wastewaters. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the biosorption of acid red 18 dyes from aqueous solutions by brown macroalgae biomass “Sargassum glaucescens.” Materials and Methods: This research was a lab study. S. glaucescens was used as an adsorbent to remove acid red 18. The effect...

Chromium is abundant in nature and has a dominant presence in most of the effluent streams as compared to other heavy metal ions. The presence of highly toxic and carcinogenic hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) in effluent streams is a major environmental issue. The electroplating and tannery industry effluents are the major source for the Cr(VI) production in wastewater streams. The present work dea...

A functionalized nylon6/polypyrrole core-shell nanofibers mat (PA6/PPy NFM) was prepared via situ polymerization on nylon6 electrospun nanofibers mat (PA6 NFM) template and used as an adsorbent to remove atrazine from aqueous solutions. The core-shell structure of PA6/PPy NFM can be clearly proved under scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoe...

Batch sorption experiments were carried out to remove As(III) from aqueous solution by using iron based commercial adsorbent Bayoxide. The effects of various experimental parameters, such as initial concentration, contact time and solution pH on the adsorption of As(III) on adsorbent was investigated. The adsorption density increased with increased initial arsenic concentration and contact time...

The present study presents the effective use of nanocrystalline akaganeite for the adsorption of an anionic (SDS), a cationic (CTAB), and a nonionic (tween80) surfactant from wastewater. Equilibrium experiments, as well as thermodynamic analysis, were performed. The maximum SDS adsorption occurs at the lowest pH value (5), the opposite is observed for CTAB (pH = 11), while for tween80, the chan...

The batch adsorption of Mn (II), Zn (II) and Cu (II) ions from aqueous solution using frond and leaves of dump palm was investigated. The influence of sorption time, initial metal ion concentration and adsorbent dosage were evaluated. The results showed that these parts of dump palm have relatively high adsorption capacity for these heavy metals ions. The percentage removed was (76%), (64%), (6...

A novel microporous three-dimensional pomegranate-like micro-scavenger cage (P-MSC) composite has been synthesized by immobilization of iron phyllosilicates clay onto a Prussian blue (PB)/alginate matrix and tested for the removal of radioactive cesium from aqueous solution. Experimental results show that the adsorption capacity increases with increasing the inactive cesium concentration from 1...
