Adsorption Kinetics describes the rate at which solute is adsorbed and resident time of adsorbates on solid-liquid interface. isotherms play important role in determining interaction between adsorbate adsorbent optimum adsorption capacity adsorbent. This article considered selected kinetics models. Pseudo first order, second Elovich, Bhattacharya Venkobachar, Natarajan Khalaf were reviewed assu...

bokbunja seed wastes from a wine manufacturing industry were used to prepare carbon for the purpose of using it as an adsorbent for the removal of reactive blue 4 from aqueous solutions. a part of prepared carbon was treated with n-hexane to remove the seed oil present in large amounts in bokbunja seeds. it was found that the hexane treated carbon was more efficient in removing the dye from aqu...

in this work, efficiency and performance of hazelnut shells (hs) adsorbent was examined for the removal and recovery of direct red 12b (dr12b) from wastewater. the absorbance of dr12b was measured spectrophotometrically at λmax=523 nm before and after adsorption of dr12b. the maximum removal was 99.8% for 30 mg l –1 ofdr12b concentration on 0.3 gr hs adsorbent. acidic ph was favourable for the ...

Over a range of concentrations from less than 0.1 mm to more than 70 mm, sweet potato root mitochondria display a bimodal substrate saturation isotherm for malate. The high affinity portion of the isotherm has an apparent Km for malate of 0.85 mm and fits a rectangular hyperbolic function. The low affinity portion of the isotherm is sigmoid in character and gives an apparent S(0.5) of 40.6 mm a...

Removal of fluoride ions was investigated using a new adsorbent of yttrium alginate biocomposite (YALG). Effect of various parameters such as pH, contact time, initial concentration of fluoride ions and temperature on the sorption capacity of adsorbent was studied. Performing a mathematical assessment of fluoride sorption, isotherm and kinetics models including Freundlich & Langmuir isotherms a...

The oxidation isotherms for citrate and isocitrate by potato (Solanum tuberosum var. Russet Burbank) mitochondria in the presence of NAD differ markedly. Citrate oxidation shows positively cooperative kinetics with a sigmoid isotherm, whereas isocitrate oxidation shows Michaelis-Menten kinetics at concentrations up to 3 millimolar, and cooperative kinetics thereafter up to 30 millimolar. In the...

ethyl benzene used increasingly each year is the raw material of producing styrene monomer. this substanceis produced from benzene alkylation with ethylene or ethanol, depending on the availability and cost of rawmaterials. in this study benzene alkylation in the presence of ethanol in a catalytic fixed bed reactor inthree states of isotherm, adiabatic and non-isotherm-non-adiabatic is mathemat...

Membrane capacitive deionization (MCDI) is a promising technique to achieve the desalination. This novel technique can largely improve the desalination efficiency of capacitive deionization (CDI) by introducing ion-exchange membranes into CDI. This paper presents a comparative study on the electrosorptive performances of CDI and MCDI based on single walled carbon nanotubes electrodes in NaCl so...

Adsorption of Nickel(II) ion onto Activated Carbon prepared from Delonix regia pods activated with Zinc chloride (DRZAC) under various experimental conditions were studied. Batch mode adsorption experiments were conducted. The characteristics of the DRZAC were determined by SEM, XRD, FTIR, BET analysis and pHZPC. The maximum removal efficiency of Ni(II) ion is 85% at pH 6. Under the chosen cond...
