fractional flow analysis confirms the advantages of surfactant alternative gas injection (sag) in enhanced oil recovery, but an adsorption phenomenon that has been affected by several factors, weakens the effectiveness of sag injection. in this study, the effects of sacrificial agent, gas phase, and surfactant concentration on adsorption density on silica mineral were investigated by static and...

This research presents adsorption potential of surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulphate; SDS) coated magnetite nanoparticles as suitable and efficient adsorbent for the removal of Basic Blue 41 (BB 41), as a cationic dye from textile’s company wastewater. The effects of various experimental parameters (e.g. initial pH of the solution, SDS amount, and ionic strength) on the adsorption efficiency of B...

Objective: Soil salinity is one of the major worldwide environmental constraints affecting agricultural production in arid and semiarid regions. Lack of proper management of water and soil resources lead to increase soil salinity and reduce soil fertility. On the other hand, it seems simple and cheap method of measuring soil salinity is necessary. The aim of this study was to determine the rela...

We studied the interaction of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) with Nile Blue (NB) and Safranine T (ST) by a spectral correction technique. The aggregations of NB and ST on an SDBS surface obeyed Langmuir isothermal adsorption. The adsorption ratios of NB and ST to SDBS were both 0.5, and the adsorption constants of the aggregates were 1.80 x 10(5) and 9.49 x 10(4). The aggregations were a...

We describe the first detailed experimental characterization of surface adsorption of an aqueous ion pair and quantify the unusual surface behavior of sodium nitrite, a ubiquitous component of natural waters. The onset of unusually strong adsorption at concentrations as low as ca. 0.1 M resembles the controversial ‘Jones–Ray Effect,’ wherein 13 salts exhibited surface tension minima in the mill...

Effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the adsorption of Zn(II) and Ni(II) on CMOC was investigated. Addition of SDS favored the adsorption process. Adsorption process was found to be dependent on concentration, pH, dose, contact time and temperature. Thermodynamic studies showed that the process is endothermic and spontaneous. The spontaneity increases with increase in temperature. D-R isot...

In this study, a new drug product containing activated charcoal was designed and developed. The excipient levels in the pharmaceutical formulation were optimized using a mixture design approach. The adsorption power of the activated charcoal suspension was selected as the critical quality attribute influencing the efficacy of medical treatment. Significant prognostic models (p<0.05) were obtain...
