Batch kinetic experiments were carried out for the sorption of methylene blue onto activated carbon. The experimental kinetics were fitted to the pseudo first-order and pseudo second-order kinetics by linear and a non-linear method. The five different types of Ho pseudo second-order expression have been discussed. A comparison of linear least-squares method and a trial and error non-linear meth...

The fractal degree of adsorption on the multi-walled carbon nanotube has been investigated. The fractal-like Langmuir kinetics model has been used to obtain the fractal degree of ion adsorption on multi-walled carbon nanotube. The behavior of the fractal-like kinetics equation was compared with some famous rate equations like Langmuir, pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order equations. It is...

In this paper, a new class of second order ( , )   -univex and second order ( , )   pseudo univex function are introduced with example. A pair Mond-Weir type second order mixed symmetric duality for multiobjective nondifferentiable programming is formulated and the duality results are established under the mild assumption of second order ( , )   univexity and second order pseudo univexity...

in this work, the adsorption of the anionic dye, congo red (cr), from aqueous solution by using tea waste (tw) has been carried out at 30 °c. the equilibrium sorption isotherms and kinetics were investigated. the equilibrium adsorption was studied by the langmuir and freundlich models of adsorption. the experimental results manifested that the langmuir isotherm was the best model for the adsorp...

The sorption of lead ion onto palm kernel fiber was studied by performing batch kinetic sorption experiments. The batch sorption model, based on a pseudo-second-order mechanism, was applied to predict the rate constant of sorption, the equilibrium capacity and the initial sorption rate with the effects of the initial solution pH and fiber dose. Equilibrium concentrations were evaluated with the...

The kinetics and isotherm studies of the immobilized lipase and the mechanism of immobilization on chitosan beads and activated chitosan beads with glutaraldehyde were investigated. The effect of glutaraldehyde on porosity of chitosan was evaluated by FESEM analysis. It was observed that the porosity of the carrier which has activated by glutaraldehyde was substantially increased. The validity ...

Graphene, a new member of the carbon family, was used as an adsorbent due to its exceptional capability to remove Rhodamine B (RB) and Malachite Green (MG), two organic dyes, from aqueous solutions. Adsorption kinetics of RB and MG onto graphene and adsorption capacity of the adsorbent were studied. Also the effects of parameters, including pH, contact time, temperature, and adsorbent dosag...
