we utilize isotherm models in contributing to scholarly knowledge in simple terms, to measure the forces or energy defining certain adsorption phenomenon. gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrophotometer detector (gcms) was utilized to measure equilibrium phase atrazine after adsorption onto shea nut shells (ss) acid derived activated carbon. data were fitted into the d-r and temkin isoth...

to explore the possibility of using graphene based biosensor, adsorption of hydrogen peroxide on graphene has been investigated using density functional theory. the electronic properties of defect free and defective graphene in the presence of different number of hydrogen peroxide have been studied. the graphene with the most stable configuration defect named as sw defect is considered. the hig...

Calcium ions have very strong affinity and binds effectively to alizarin red dye during staining of biomaterials. This promotes us to choose calcium hydroxide as a low cost adsorbent for the removal of alizarin red dye. Various parameters such as pH, concentration, dose of adsorbent, time, and temperature have been investigated. In addition, enthalpy, entropy, free energy and activation energy ...

The adsorption of several organic molecules on four carbon materials is studied by inverse gas solid chromatography at zero surface coverage. The specific retention volumes and the differential heats of adsorption (or standard enthalpies of adsorption) are used to study the influence of the porous structure and the chemical surface groups in the process. From the comparison of the differential ...

a good understanding of adsorption equilibrium and thermodynamics is required to design and operate an adsorption process. this study was conducted to assess the adsorption percentage of pb2+ ions as a function of contact time, solution ph and temperatures, and adsorbent dosage through a series of batch experiments. the methods including zeta potentials, specific surface area measurements and t...

The modified triangular-well potential model was applied to incorporate the effect of surface energy on the adsorption of particles or proteins on energetically heterogeneous surfaces. The method is convenient in simulating the adsorption on heterogeneous surface of which different region possesses different free energy. Spherical particles with attractive forces were added on the surface and u...

The adsorption characteristics of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol (4C2NP) onto single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs and MWCNTs) from aqueous solution were investigated with respect to the changes in the contact time, pH of solution, carbon nanotubes dosage and initial 4C2NP concentration. Experimental results showed that the adsorption efficiency of 4C2NP by carbon nanotubes (both of ...
