in this study, bimodal meso-porous silica (uvm-7) synthesized and fabricated amino silane modified supports were characterized by powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), n2 adsorption/desorption, transmission electron microscope (tem), elemental analysis and titration. capacity of co2 capture on modified bimodal pore structure silica at 70°c was calculated using breakthrough curves; and it was found th...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), abundant in mixed contaminant sites, often coexist with heavy metals. The fate and remediation of PAHs depend heavily on the sorption and desorption behavior of these contaminants. The sorption behavior can in turn be highly affected by certain soil components and properties, such as soil organic matter (SOM) and the presence of heavy metals. Through rev...

Despite considerable attention in the literature being given to the desorption behaviour of smaller volatiles, the thermal properties of complex organics, such as ethanol (C(2)H(5)OH), which are predicted to be formed within interstellar ices, have yet to be characterized. With this in mind, reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS) and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) have bee...

organic acids exuded by plant roots increase solubility of soil micronutrient complexes. this study was carried out to evaluate adsorption isotherms of 4 acidic and 4 calcareous soils at presence of organic acids (citric, malic and oxalic acids). iron sorption and desorption isotherms are defined in to two systems including; system 1; soil-water-metal, system 2; soil-water-organic acid-metal). ...

this paper discusses the biosorption of ni(ii) ions from aqueous solutions by bacillus sphaericus biomass. the biosorption process was affected by the solution ph, biomass concentration, contact time, temperature and initial ni(ii) concentration respectively. the sorption kinetics and equilibrium data were described well with the pseudo-second order kinetic model and the freundlich isotherm mod...

gaz-angubin is a sweet exudate naturally produced by an insect from the gavan-e-gaz-angubin plant. adsorption and desorption isotherms for a gaz-angubin sample were determined at 15° and 25°c over a range of relative humidity from 0 to 90% using a dynamic vapor sorption system. at different levels of relative humidity, changes in sample mass were continuously measured versus time and described ...

We report that ammonia borane with a high uptake capacity for hydrogen can be encapsulated in a metal-organic framework (MOF) via capillary action, where the MOF functions as a chemical guide to control the hydrogen desorption pathways of ammonia borane by releasing only pure hydrogen, lowering its hydrogen desorption temperature, and suppressing its volumetric expansion during hydrogen desorpt...

Bioavailability of pesticides sorbed to soils is an important determinant of their environmental fate and impact. Mineralization of sorbed atrazine was studied in soil and clay slurries, and a desorption-biodegradation-mineralization (DBM) model was developed to quantitatively evaluate the bioavailability of sorbed atrazine. Three atrazine-degrading bacteria that utilized atrazine as a sole N s...

Maximum capacities were determined for adsorption of six polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, seven polychlorinated biphenyls, and five chlorobenzenes in both the slowly desorbing domain and the very slowly desorbing domain of a sediment. For separate compound classes in the two desorption domains, log-transformed maximum adsorption capacities were linearly related to the relative magnitude of the...
