removal of cesium from synthetic aqueous solution through adsorption on vermiculite, under batch equilibrium experimental condition at six initial values of ph (3, 4, 6, 9, 11 and 12) and five temperatures (25, 50, 75, 85 and 95 °c) has been investigated. it is necessary to propose a suitable model for a better understanding of the mechanism of cesium adsorption on vermiculite. for this propose...

a mathematical model is described and applied for adsorption process of ethyl acetate from supercritical co2 stream on activated carbon particles. this model has the ability of illustrating variation of effluent concentration towards different parameters such as flow rate, temperature and pressure. in this research, a vast area of operational conditions is experienced. mass transfer resistance ...

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...

recently, the use of biological absorbent in removal of hazardous pollutants such as heavy metals has increased because of the decrease in sludge problems, economical issues, high efficiency and compatibility with the environment. this study was done over the biosorption of nickel by biosolids obtained from the municipal wastewater treatment in a batch reactor. the pretreatment of the biosolids...

in this work, the adsorption of carbon dioxide from model flue gas on different adsorbents has been investigated. using simplified modeling, parameters such as the total mass transfer coefficient and the effective diffusivity have been determined. experiments were carried out in two sections: firstly, adsorption of pure carbon dioxide on different adsorbents was measured at pressures ranging fr...

adsorption of p-nitrophenol by three different activated carbons (f100, s.e.i. and b.d.h.) was carried out at 301 k and at controlled ph conditions. two different adsorption models (langmuir model and freundlich model) were studied and compared. the adsorption capacity of the carbons depends on the point of zero charge (pzc) and surface area of the carbons. adsorption of the solute at higher ph...

the modified surface of typha latifolia l. root (mstl), as an alternative economical adsorbent, wasused for the removal of ni (ii) and cd(ii) ions from aqueous solutions. the effect of initial ph, initialconcentration of metal ion, and contact time was investigated in a batch system at room temperature.the kinetics data could be fitted well by pseudo-second-order model with correlation coeffici...

almcm-41 was applied for adsorption of methylene blue (mb) and auramine (au) in single and binary component systems. in the single component systems, almcm-41 represents higher adsorption capacity for mb than au with the maximal adsorption capacity of 2.07×10−4 and 1.15×10−4 mol/g at 25 ˚c for mb and au, respectively. in the binary component system, mb and au exhibit competitive adsorption onto...

abstract phosphate is an essential element for plants, animals, and human. mobility and availability of phosphate in the natural systems is controlled by the adsorption-desorption and dissolution-precipitation reactions. iron (hydr)oxides including goethite play an important role in phosphate adsorption reactions in soil. surface area, crystallinity, and morphology of iron (hydr)oxides are the ...

Background: Synthetic dyes are serious pollutants and wide ranges of methods have been employed for their removal from aquatic systems. We studied the adsorption of "Nile blue A" (NBA), an anionic dye, from aqueous solution by oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Methods: Scanning electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize ...
