The adsorption of Basic yellow 2 (BY2), from aqueous solutions onto Granular activated carbon (GAC) and its adsorption kinetics at different concentrations, GAC masses, initial pH values and temperatures were studied. The adsorption process was followed by an on-line spectrophotometric analysis system, which consisted of UV-spectrophotometer, a designed spectrophotometric cell, peristaltic pump...

background; dyes can cause many problems in environment. therefore, removal of these contaminants before discharging wastewater to environment can reduce the environmental hazards. adsorption is one of the usual processes for decolorizing from wastewater. nanotubes are new adsorbents that can adsorb different compounds. this work aimed to investigate acid violet 17 dye removal by adsorption usi...

The adsorption properties and mechanics of selected endocrine disrupting compounds; 17 β-estradiol, 17 α – ethinylestradiol and bisphenol A on locally available black tea leaves waste and granular activated carbon were investigated. The results obtained indicated that the kinetics of adsorption were pH, adsorbent dose, contact time and temperature dependent with equilibrium being reached at 20 ...

A low-cost activated carbon (XSBLAC) prepared from XanthocerasSorbifoliaBungehull via chemical activation was investigated to determine its adsorption and desorption properties for zinc(II) ions from aqueous solutions. XSBLAC was characterized based on its N₂-adsorption/desorption isotherm, EDX, XRD, SEM and FTIR results. An adsorption study was conducted in a series of experiments to optimize ...

In this research, Activated Carbon (AC) was modified using a sodium hydroxide solution for CO2 adsorption. Adsorption experiments were carried out in a batch reactor at a temperature range of 20-80°C and a pressure range of 2-10 bars to investigate kinetic, isotherm, and thermodynamic of the CO2 adsorption process. Activated carbon was modified with NaOH solution conce...

Sawdust is obtained from naturally and easily available which is biodegradable. The bio sorption capacity of the sawdust for hexavalent chromium was studied at different solution pH values (1.5-6), initial metal concentration (50450 mg/L), adsorbent dose (1-7 g/L). The maximum adsorption of Cr (VI) is obtained at pH 1.5, initial concentration 50 ppm and adsorbent dose 5 g/l. The adsorption of c...

The development of a country depends on industrialization and agricultural production. Due to this number of industries and factories like metal industries, dyeing, fertilizers, painting industries are coming continuously which creates severe environmental pollution especially water problem should be created and also cause global warming. To controlling of environmental pollution is very big ch...

BACKGROUND Recently, researchers have tried to design synthetic materials by replicating natural materials as an adsorbent for removing various types of environmental pollutants, which have reached to the risky levels in nature for many countries in the world. In this research, the potential of onion membrane obtained from intermediate of onion shells for adsorption of methylene blue (MB) as a ...

An adsorbent Modified Biochar (MB) made from sewage sludge was characterized with FT-IR spectra and SEM image. The effects of contact time, solution temperature, pH and initial concentration on the adsorption performance Pb(II) onto MB was investigated in a batch adsorption experiment. Results showed that MB had great adsorption capacity, due to the existence of hydroxyl, carboxyl, ether, alcoh...
