The aim of this study was to remove Cd by ion-exchange resin Amberjet 1200H in flow condition. The adsorption characteristics of metal onto the resin were accurately described by Freundlich isotherms. The ion exchange of cadmium on resin follows pseudo-second-order kinetics. Ion exchange capacities of the cadmium on the ion exchange resin was studied in metal solution. The capacities of sorptio...

Introduction: Arsenic is known as a carcinogenic compound in drinking water. It can cause acute and chronic effects on human health. In this study, the effect of polyamidoamine dendrimer generation 3 (PAMAM G3) as adsorbents for removal of arsenic (V) from aqueous solutions was evaluated. Materials and Methods: Adsorption experiment was studied in batch system and the effect of different varia...

The removal of Methylene Blue dye from aqueous solution using a biowaste, dried Blue Green Algae was investigated in terms of variation of initial concentration of the dye solution, adsorbent dosage and pH. The optimum pH for the removal of dye by adsorption was found to be pH 7. The data obtained in this study fitted with Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The experimental data conf...

The present work investigates the equilibrium adsorption of Chrysene on multi-walled carbon nanotubes at 293, 303 and 313°K, and determines the equilibrium adsorption isotherms and thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS). The values of ΔH and ΔG suggested that the adsorption of Chrysene onto MWCNTs was endothermic and nonspontaneous.The experimental data were analyzed using Langmuir, Freundlic...

The studies on removal of Lead (II) were conducted using Coconut shell. Adsorption efficiency has been evaluated. The effect of pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, concentration of metal, particle size and temperature were studied. The result reveals that Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms are followed during adsorption process. Thermodynamics parameter indicates the feasibility of the process. Ki...

 This research investigate clayey, lateritic and sandy soils have been selected from agricultural lands in the South-Eastern Nigeria, for their phosphate sorption characteristics using column experiments, in order ascertain the movement of phosphate in the soils. The soil samples were equilibrated in 25ml of 0.01M CaCl2  containing different concentrations of P as KH2PO4 to produce initial conc...

this study was carried out to obtain quantitative relationships between zn in equilibrium solution and that retained by 20 calcareous soils. soils were brought into equilibrium with varying solution concentrations of zn, and the amounts removed from solution were used to check the fit to six adsorption isotherms, namely, freundlich, langmuir, temkin, gunary, two surface langmuir and adjusted fr...

For the first time, the present study removes ions of mercury, in the form of Hg (I) and Hg (II) ions, from aqueous solutions by adsorbing them onto titanium dioxide nanoparticles. The effects of various parameters, such as solution's initial pH, temperature, sorbent dosage, initial mercury concentration, and contact time have been examined on the adsorption process. The experimental results ha...
