The objective of this study was to assess the adsorption potential of activated carbon (AC) asan adsorbent for the removal of Murexide (Mu) from aqueous solutions. The influence of variablesparameters including pH, amount of adsorbent, sieve size of adsorbent, temperature and contact timeon Mu removal was studied. Following optimization of variables, the relation between concentrations ofdye re...

background: the presence of heavy metals in the environment especially in water supplies have caused many concerns because of their toxicity and non-degradability. hexavalent chromium (cr) is one of the most toxic metals which is used in many industries, so it is essential to remove it from industrial wastewater. in this study, we made a comparison between different adsorption isotherms in the ...

in this study adsorption of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene on single walled carbon nanotubes has been investigated.  the effect of contact time, ph, initial concentration of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene, adsorbent dosage and temperature on its adsorption has been carried out in order to find optimum adsorption conditions. adsorption isotherms and related constants were also determined. results showed that ...

In this study, activated carbon derived from mangosteen peel (abbreviated as ACMP) was successfully fabricated. This as-prepared ACMP possessed graphite and had a porous structure with specific surface area of 419.8554 m2/g. Investigations the influencing factors on ciprofloxacin (CIP) adsorption capability based static method showed that: equilibrium can be achieved in 60 min, optimal pH for C...

metals sorption on solid phase from solution is one of the most important chemical processes controlling their bioavailability in soils. nickel (ni) sorption characteristics in 20 calcareous soils of iran were investigated in a range from 5.87 to 751.23 mgl-1 ni concentration in solution using sorption isotherms. ni sorption isotherm exhibited strong nonlinear behavior for all soils. the result...

in the present study seven synthetic polymers were used as adsorbents for the removal of cd(ii) from aqueous solution. the equilibrium studies were systematically carried out in a batch process, covering various process parameters that include agitation time, adsorbent dosage, and ph of the aqueous solution. the analyzing system was an atomic absorption spectrometer (perkin-analyst 100). it was...

The biosorbent was obtained from municipal solid waste (MSW) of the Mostaganem city. Before use the MSW was dried in air for three days and washed several times. The sorption of yellow procion reactive dye MX-3R onto biomass from aqueous solution was investigated as function of pH, contact time and temperature. The adsorption capacity of MX-3R was 45.84 mg/g at pH 2-3 and room temperature. MX-3...

In this study, a series of macroporous polyacrylamide-based monoliths bearing negatively charged interaction sites were synthesized as adsorbents for effective removal Th4+ from aqueous solutions. The effects solution pH, contact time, monolith dosage, initial concentration, and temperature on adsorption process was studied. Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin–Raduskevich isotherms applied to describ...

in this research, the removal of malachite green dye from textile wastewaters using polyaniline coated onto sawdust (pani/sd) has been investigated. ammonium peroxodisulphate was used as chemical oxidant for polymerization of polyaniline directly on the surface of sawdust. the effects of some important parameters such as ph, initial concentration, sorbent dosage, exposure time and temperature o...

Sorption of 75 active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) to three different types of sludge (primary sludge, secondary sludge with short and long sludge age respectively) were investigated. To obtain the sorption isotherms batch studies with the APIs mixture were performed in four nominal concentrations to water containing 1 g of sludge. The range of APIs concentrations was between ng L(-1) to μ...
