In the present study, Juglans regia shells were used to prepare activated carbon by acid treatment method. J. regia shell-based activated carbon was used for the adsorption of two synthetic dyes namely, a basic dye malachite green and an acid dye amido black 10B. The prepared adsorbent was crushed and sieved to three different mesh sizes 100, 600 and 1,000 lm. The adsorbent was characterized by...

Sawdust a timber waste has been used as a bio-sorbent for the removal of a cationic dye, malachite green from aqueous solutions. The process of removal has been optimized for different parameters like initial concentration of dye solution and contact time, pH, adsorbent dose, and temperature. pHzpc of the adsorbent was determined. Elemental analysis of the adsorbent was carried out. FTIR was pe...

Rice husk a very low cost material has been utilized as adsorbent for the removal of lead from industrial effluents. Adsorption studies have been carried out at 28°Cand the effect of initial lead concentrations (100-1000) mg/l, adsorbent dosage (0.05-1) g, pH (2-10) and contact time (10-180) min on lead uptake to establish a mathematical model description percentage removal of Pb (II). The infl...

This study examined the interactions of MoO4(2-) + SO4(2-), MoO4(2-) + SeO4(2-), and MoO4(2-) + SeO3(2-) systems on gamma-Al2O3 to better understand the competitive adsorption of these anions in the natural environment. The Freundlich isotherms of anionic adsorption onto gamma-Al2O3 in single and binary solutes were also investigated to estimate the competition between these anions. Experimenta...

Abstract In this work, the adsorption of ciprofloxacin onto yam peel biosorbent was studied by batch method. The equilibrium isotherm analysis process evaluated to provide insight into removal mechanism. A decrease in percentage (75.0 – 60.8%) and an increase capacity (6.0 24.3 mg/g) with concentration from 20 100 mg/L obtained. analyzed Langmuir, Temkin, Freundlich, Scatchard models, best fit ...

In this study, pumice stone was used for the removal of tetracyline (TC) from aqueous solutions. It was characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM and BET analyses. Cation exchange capacity of pumice stone was found to be 9.9 meq/100 g. Effect of various parameters such as solution pH (2-11), adsorbent dosage (0.5-10 g/L), contact time (2.5-120 min), initial TC concentration (5-300 mg/L) and temperature ...

Abstract Biochar is a carbon-rich by-product of biomass pyrolysis that can limit glyphosate mobility in soil using amelioration technology. Study the basic principles adsorption behaviour biochar from young coconut waste Kon-Tiki method at temperature (682°C), moisture content (81.27%), and yield ratio (20.87%) size ≤2 mm. The absorption increased as rose, whereas pH declined. capacity coeffici...

    Background & Aims of the Study: Textile wastewaters are very various in chemical qualities. In other words, these industries are one of the largest producing dyes compounds; therefore their treatment is so complex and difficult. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential removal of Reactive Red 198 and Blue Reactive 19 from synthetic solution by Acaciatortilis shu...

It is the purpose of this paper to investigate data fitting attributes exponential integral isotherm, which was first derived by Ruthven in 2004 describe adsorption at gas–solid interfaces. The a variant virial incorporates two parameters Langmuir isotherm and has an expandable mathematical structure. lain dormant for nearly 20 years. This fact may seem surprising considering versatility as wil...
