A hierarchical porous carbon obtained from pig bone (HPC) was utilized as the adsorbent for removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The effects of solution pH value, concentration of Cr(VI), and adsorption temperature on the removal of Cr(VI) were investigated. The experimental data of the HPC fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm and its adsorption kinetic followed pseudo-second order model....

In this work, the chemical and thermal stability of a primary amine-functionalized ion-exchange resin (Lewatit VP OC 1065) is studied in view of the potential options of regenerating this sorbent in a CO2 removal application. The adsorbent was treated continuously in the presence of air, different O2/CO2/N2 mixtures, concentrated CO2, and steam, and then the remaining CO2 adsorption capacity wa...

A treatment unit packed by granular adsorbent of Fe-Mn binary oxide incorporated into diatomite (FMBO(1:1)-diatomite) was studied to remove arsenic from anaerobic groundwater without any pre-treatment or post-treatment. The raw anaerobic groundwater containing 35-45 microg/L of arsenic was collected from suburb of Beijing. Arsenic (III) constituted roughly 60%-80% of the total arsenic content. ...

in this research, adsorption of dibenzothiophene (dbt) as a model of sulfur containing material has been studied by pb exchanged y-zeolite under different experimental conditions. the adsorption was kinetically fast and high adsorption capacity was obtained. the equilibrium adsorption data were analyzed using langmuir and freunlich isotherm models. the corresponding parameters and correlation c...

Highly porous boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) were tested as a re-usable adsorbent for the removal of pharmaceuticals from aqueous solution. The BNNSs exhibit both unprecedentedly high adsorption capacities and excellent recyclability while maintaining their high adsorption capacity by a simple regeneration process. These advantages render BNNSs a promising material for water remediation appli...

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...

A new sorbent has been developed by grafting Hexamethylenetetramine on a mesoporous molecular sieve (SBA-15) by wet impregnation method. This sorbent (Hexamine/SBA-15) has been characterized using N2 physisorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD) at low angles (2θ°) and FT-IR. To investigate the H2S removal capacity of this adsorbent from CH4-containing gas mixtures, the breakthrough tests have been pe...

This work presents a detailed parametric experimental on the feasibility of microwave regeneration two commercial adsorbents in dynamic carbon capture swing adsorption system. A synthetic flue gas (15% v/v CO2 N2) dry or with 15% relative humidity was selected, along Norit R2020CO2 activated and zeolite 13X. purpose-modified apparatus used to compare microwave-assisted conventional thermal rege...
