jute modified has been used for adsorption of cr (vi), cd (ii) and pb (ii) ions over a range ofinitial metal ion concentration. adsorption process is done in batch mode. adsorption isotherms ofthe heavy metals on adsorbents prepared were determined and correlated with common isothermequations. it was found that the freundlich isotherm is better than langmuir for explaining thebehavior of adsorp...

a type of novel hypercross-linked fiber adsorbent was obtained by sulfonation and cross-linking reaction of polypropylene fiber grafted styrene-divinylbenzene. the aim of the fiber sulfonation and cross-linking method was to prepare rigid three dimensional networks in the entire fiber and change the ion exchange capacity of fiber. the hypercross-linked fiber adsorbent possesses a principally di...

In this study, a series of laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the efficiency of hydroxyapatite (1-iAP)nanopowders towards adsorption of lysozyme from aqueous solution. In the present research. I RP nanopowderssynthesized from egg-shell characterized using SEM and FT-Ht. The adsorption of lysozyme was I mg/mL using0.1 g adsorbent in 100 mL of lysozyme solution. Adsorption data were f...

In this study, Saccharum bengalense(SB) was used as biosorbent for the removal of Mn (II) ions from aqueous solution. The influence of biosorbent dose, time, pH and temperature was investigated in the biosorption process. Studies showed that by increasing pH of the solution, metal removing efficiency of Saccharum bengalensefrom the aqueous environment was enhanced but to a specific extent, ...

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...

background: heavy metals have been recognized as harmful environmental pollutant known to produce highly toxic effects on different organs and systems of both humans and animals. the aim of this paper is to evaluate the adsorption potential of chitosan for the removal of pb(ii), fe(ii) and cu(ii) ions from aqueous solutions. methods: this study was conducted in laboratory scale. in this paper c...

Nickel (Ni) as a heavy metal due to its toxicity should be removed from wastewater and aquatic environments  using  efficient  technology.  The  aim  of this  study  was  to  remove  Ni  from  an aqueous  solution  using  palm  leaf  ash  produced  in  a  furnace.  To  do  so,  kinetic  and thermodynamic experiments were conducted on the adsorption process. Moreover, the effect of time, pH, ads...

a batch adsorption study was applied to investigate the adsorption of pb2+ ions from aqueous solutionby nanographene (ng).the adsorption percentage of pb2+ions onto ng samples at different initial ph,contact time (tc), adsorbent dosage (mng) and temperature (t) were investigated. the results showedthat ng is an excellent adsorbent for pb2+ions removal from aqueous solutions with an adsorptionpe...

The present study seeks to investigate the capacity of polyaniline/titanium dioxide (PAn/TiO2) and Polypyrrole/titanium dioxide (PPy/TiO2) nano-adsorbents to adsorb Congo red anionic dye (CR) from aqueous solution. The variables effective in CR adsorption, including adsorbent dose, pH of the solution, contact time, initial dye concentration, and temperature were examined. The study yielded the ...
