Abstract Cellulose membrane (CM) was successfully prepared by phase conversion (L–S). The adsorption performance of CM for Pb( ii ) under different conditions investigated, and the isothermal models kinetic were established. Additionally, desorption also investigated. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) methods used to eva...

We have studied kinetics of random sequential adsorption of mixtures on a square lattice using Monte Carlo method. Mixtures of linear short segments and long segments were deposited with the probability p and 1− p, respectively. For fixed lengths of each segment in the mixture, the jamming limits decrease when p increases. The jamming limits of mixtures always are greater than those of the pure...

Thermodynamic adsorption properties (differential enthalpy and entropy, spreading pressure and net integral enthalpy and entropy) of cassava flour were determined at 25, 30 and 35°C to provide information about the water and energy requirements for the sorption process. The Guggenheim–Anderson–de Boer (GAB), Peleg and Halsey models were found to adequately describe the sorption characteristics,...

Quaternized palm kernel shell was successfully prepared by reacting with N-(3-chloro-2hydroxypropyl)trimethylammonium chloride in basic condition. Adsorption experiments of Reactive Red E (RRE) dye were carried out in single batch system studied at various initial concentration, contact time and pH at 25°C. It was found that at pH 4 quaternized palm kernel shell showed the highest dye removal p...

1-type and biharmonic curves by using laplace operator in lorentzian 3-space arestudied and some theorems and characterizations are given for these curves.

The isothermal adsorption of nicotine from an aqueous solution onto zeolite type USY at temperature range from 298 to 322 K was investigated. It was found that the adsorption isotherms can be described by the Freundlich adsorption isotherm. The density distribution function of adsorption centers has an exponential form and the adsorption isotherms can be fitted by the Freundlich isotherm. The c...

conclusions it was shown that the removal efficiency of nitrate was directly proportional to the amount of chaff, temperature, and contact time but inversely to the ph. this study showed that nitrate removal by chaff is a promising technique. results the result of this study revealed that chaff as an absorbent could remove nitrate from solutions, and the efficiency of adsorption increased as co...

background: as fluoride concentration in drinking water is one of the effective parameters in human health, finding the ways to remove excess amount of fluoride is very important in water supply projects. this study aimed to evaluate mendon bauxite mine in the removal of fluoride from drinking water. methods: this experimental study was conducted from may to october 2013 on synthetic and actual...

introduction one concern in the disposal of municipal solid waste (msw) by landfill is the production of leachate. acidic water is capable of dissolving elements from the waste; and, as a result, the leachate can become quite contaminated. one of the heavy metals present in leachate, cadmium poses a great concern in terms of environmental contamination since it is toxic to nearly all living org...
