Introduction: Arsenic is known as a carcinogenic compound in drinking water. It can cause acute and chronic effects on human health. In this study, the effect of polyamidoamine dendrimer generation 3 (PAMAM G3) as adsorbents for removal of arsenic (V) from aqueous solutions was evaluated. Materials and Methods: Adsorption experiment was studied in batch system and the effect of different varia...

Corn cob as a low cost adsorbent was used in the present work for the removal of toxic heavy metal Co2+ from aqueous solutions. Bath experiments were used to determine the best adsorption conditions. The equilibrium adsorption level was determined as a function of solution pH, temperature (T), contact time (tc), initial adsorbate concentration, and adsorbent dosage. Effective removal of metal i...

In this study, Co (III) salen complex was synthesized and immobilized onto the surface of Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanoparticle. The heterogeneous nanocatalyst was characterized by different techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen adsorption−desorption isotherm (BET), ...

Ti-V-Nb-Cr alloys have been reported as potential candidates for hydrogen storage applications. Investigating the processes of absorption and desorption is paramount to understand properties these novel develop more efficient materials. In this work, we investigated absorption/desorption reactions (TiVNb)85Cr15 BCC multicomponent alloy by laboratory synchrotron X-ray diffraction, Pair Distribut...

Bernal suggested that clays might have played a significant role in primitive earth through the process of concentration and adsorption of the biologically formed biomonomers and thus protecting them against hydrolytic fission.Adsorption of adenine was studied in presence of montmorillonite clay with or without cations Ca+,Cu+,Mg+.Studies carried out have shown that adsorption of adenine was de...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the capacity of natural Turkish zeolite for NH4-N removal from landfill leachate. The effects of modification and initial concentration on the removal of NH4-N from leachate were also investigated. The kinetics of adsorption of NH4-N has been discussed using three kinetic models, i.e., the pseudo-second order model, the Elovich equation, the intrapart...

The low-affinity interaction between human serum albumin (HSA) and Diclofenac sodium (DCF) was studied using NMR techniques. Both 13C-NMR chemical shift and linewidth show that the dichlorophenyl ring in DCF molecule plays a primary role in its interaction with HSA. Langmuir adsorption isotherm was applied to evaluate the association constant K and the number of binding sites n of the drug/HSA ...

We use the Percus-Yevick approximation to study indirect correlation functions in the sticky hard-sphere model introduced by Baxter. The model has a critical point below which there is a liquid gas transition. We illustrate the changes in the structure of the correlation function as the density increases on the critical isotherm and on supercritical and subcritical isotherms. We also examine th...

Field ionization of trimethylamine and of N,N-dimethylaniline doped into xenon is presented as a function of xenon number density up to the density of the triple point liquid, both at noncritical temperatures and along the critical isotherm. These data exhibit a decrease in the xenon induced shift of the dopant ionization energy near the xenon critical point. The energy of the quasi-free electr...

The adsorption behavior of chlorendic acid (1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 7-hexachlorobicyclo-(2, 2, 1) -hept-5-ene-2, 3dicarboxylic acid) onto hydrophilic fumed TiO2 (P-25, Degussa) in aqueous suspension was investigated. Results indicate that chlorendic acid adsorbed strongly in short times (2-5 mins) onto TiO2. Adsorption data is consistent with LangmuirHinshelwood isotherm model for monolayer adsorption a...
