Artificial neural network (ANN), pseudo second-order kinetic, and gene expression programming (GEP) models were constructed to predict removal efficiency of Lanaset Red G (LR G) using lentil straw (LS) based on 1152 experimental sets. The sorption process was dependent on adsorbent particle size, pH, initial dye concentration, and contact time. These variables were used as input to construct a ...

Rotaviruses are the leading cause and coronaviruses are the major contributors of acute gastroenteritis in the young of various mammalian and avian species. Despite numerous trials and decades of research, vaccines have limited efficacy particularly for calves. As an alternative method of controlling infection, we have investigated broad spectrum antiviral agents that are not discriminatory amo...

Anthracite was used as an adsorbent to remove excess phosphate from wastewater. Anthracite used in the present study is environmentally friendly and of cost effective. The adsorption study was carried out using different particle size of adsorbents, different concentration of phosphate solution ranging from 25.0 mg/L to 100.0 mg/L, different pH values ranging from 0.5 to 11.5 along with differe...

The high cost of commercial active carbon has motivated the study of new adsorbents materials with the aim to reduce costs of the residuary waters treatment by means of adsorption process. Among then, the pyrolyzed oil shale has demonstrated adsorbents characteristic and has been studied as adsorbent material for organic and inorganic pollutants. In oil refineries, before deciding for the impla...

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...

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-oxime-nano Fe2O3 was used as an adsorbent for the removal of fluoride from water. The influences of contact time, initial fluoride concentration, and adsorbent dosage were investigated by batch equilibrium studies. The rate of adsorption was rapid with equilibrium being attained after 100min. The Langmuir isotherm model was found to represent the measured adsorption data...

The present study focuses on the use of Corn cob as an effective and efficient adsorbent for the removal of Ni (II) from aqueous solution. The influence of Physico-chemical parameters such as Adsorbent Dosage, Contact time, pH and Initial concentration has been examined in Batch studies. The initial and residual concentration of Ni (II) was analyzed using UVDouble Beam absorption spectrophotome...

Present study dealt the removal of Cr(VI) in a tannery industry wastewater using rice husk silica powder as an adsorbent.The experimental investigations have been carried out by using rice husk silica powder for different adsorption dosage, different contact time and different pH against the initial Cr(VI) concentration of 292 mg/L. The maximum percentage removal of Cr(VI) in a tannery industri...

In this work, spent bleaching clay (SBC) was treated with ethyl acetate and impregnation 3-amino-5-hydroxypyrazole (AHIBC) that utilized as economical sorbent material. The uptake of yttrium ions from aqueous solution using AHIBC studied under batch process a function pH the solution, contact time, adsorbent dosage, Yttrium concentration, ambient temperature. adsorption equilibrium achieved at ...

The mobility, durability, and widespread use of perfluorinated polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), notably perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), bring about serious contamination many ground surface waters. In this study, fluorine amine-functionalized porous organic polymer (POP-4F) was designed successfully synthesized as an adsorbent for PFOA removal in water. characterization results showed that the...
