Batch sorption studies have been carried out to determine the effect of initial concentration of the sorbate, agitation time, adsorbent dose, pH, co-ions and temperature on the adsorption of fluoride on activated carbon prepared from newspaper. The adsorption process was found to be pH, temperature and concentration dependent. The experimental data fitted well to the Freundlich and Langmuir iso...

toxicity has occurred in workers exposed to nickel dust or nickel carbonyl formed in refining. increased risk of nasal and lung cancers was linked to occupational nickel exposure before current workplace safety standards were set. activated carbon with nano holes used for removing contaminants in environment. the purpose of this work is preparation a new nano-absorber, gz-baki-tac-ni-88, for th...

in this research, rice husk and activated carbon adsorbents were used for removal of lead ion from aqueous solution at ph= 6. in the batch tests experimental parameters were studied, including contact time and initial metal ions concentration.survey of the equilibrium time at different concentration showed that equilibrium time is reduced with decrease of initial concentration of solution from ...

pollution of water resources by various pollutants is nowadays a global environmental issue. among the different type of water pollutants, dye represents a major polluting group. in this study, azolla filiculides roots have been used for adsorption of malachite green (mg), a cationic dyed from aqueous solution. in this study, effects of operating parameters such as initial concentration of dye ...

One of the most appropriate methods for elimination of trace impurities in helium is cryogenic adsorption process. So, in this study design and construction of cryogenic adsorption helium purification system (3 Nm3.hr-1, 80 bar) carried out using activated carbon as adsorbent at 77K. To evaluation of adsorption dynamics and effect of pressure on elimination of trace impurities, helium purificat...

The Biosorption property of S. cerevisiae for chromium uptake was investigated in an immobilized cell bioreactor. Saw dust was utilized as the solid bed in the reactor. Adsorption of S. cerevisiae on saw dust obeys a first order reaction kinetic up to 6 hours. The immobilized biomass particles are porous and exist in the new generation of biological adsorbent. Chromium biosorption was studied i...

The surface adsorption of heavy metals in effluents with nanoparticles is today asuitable method for effluents treatment. In the present study, lignocellulose nano-fibers(LCNFs) were used as natural adsorbent for lead adsorption. The aim was to evaluate leadadsorption using adsorption isotherms, kinetics and thermodynamics. Fourier TransformInfrared Sp...

Polyacrylic acid/ octavinyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane, nanocomposite hydrogel with 3-D network was synthesized via radical polymerization. Octavinyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane was used as crosslinker and nanofiller simultaneously in the preparation of the hydrogel. Hydrogel adsorption performance was determined by adsorption of methylene blue. The adsorption capacity was ev...

it seems using the maxwell-stefan (m-s) diffusion model in combination with the vacancy solutiontheory (vst) and the single-component adsorption data provides a superior, qualitative, andquantitative prediction of diffusion in zeolites. in the m-s formulation, thermodynamic factor (г) isan essential parameter which must be estimated by an adsorption isotherm. researchers usually utilizethe simp...

In this study, montmorillonite clay was used as the adsorbent for the removal of Aniline Blue dye, from aqueous solution by the batch adsorption technique under different conditions. The maximum removal of aniline blue dye for initial dye concentration 20 mg/L was more than 95% at optimum conditions (pH=4.5, contact time=30 min, and adsorbent dosage=2 g/L). The data of this study were fitted wi...
