Abstract— An EC-103 microporous carbon adsorbent was synthesized from wood using thermochemically activation with Н 3 РО 4 as an activating agent. Methane adsorption on the studied within temperature range 303 to 333 K and at pressures up 40 MPa. The total volume of sorbing pores 1.71 cm /g. maximum values methane were obtained pressure differential molar isosteric heat 14.5 mmol/g (23.2 wt %) ...

The use of low-cost, locally available, highly efficiencient and eco-friendly adsorbents has been investigated as an ideal alternative to the current expensive methods of removing dyes from wastewater. This study investigates the potential use of activated carbon prepared from the Annona squmosa seed for the removal of methyl red (MR) dye from simulated wastewater. The effects of different syst...

The sorption of cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) by calcium alginate beads (CAB) from aqueous solutions in batch systems was investigated. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters, as well as the sorption capacities of CAB in each system at different temperatures, were evaluated. The rate of sorption for both metals was rapid in the first 10 minutes and reached a maximum in 50 minutes. Sorption kinet...

The chemically crosslinked metal-complexed chitosans were synthesized by using the ion-imprinting method from a chitosan with four metals (Cu(II), Zn(II), Ni(II) and Pb(II)) as templates and glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker. The influences of adsorption conditions, including molar ratios of crosslinker/chitosan and pH changes, were studied. They were used to investigate for comparative adsorptio...

This work reports the adsorption of strontium from aqueous solutions onto PAN/zeolite composite. The strontium adsorption on the composite adsorbent was studied as a function of initial strontium concentration, pH of the solution, contact time and temperature. Adsorption isotherms like Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) and Temkin were used to analyze the equilibrium data at the d...

Acid and thermal treated sepiolite was organophilized by cationic exchange with several alkylammonium cations (octylammonium, hexadecylammonium, tetradecyltrimethylammonium, hexadecyltrimethylammonium). The adsorption capacity of BTEX from aqueous solutions evaluated through the isotherms performed in batch. results were analysed using three isotherm models: Freundlich, Langmuir Dubinin-Radushk...

The present study was carried out to investigate the adsorption and leaching behavior of Cu2+, Zn2+ and Pb2+ by sediments collected from the western banks of three different sectors along River Nile at Aswan governorate, Egypt. The feasibility of sediments for the removal of Cu2+, Zn2+ and Pb2+ from aqueous solutions was tested under the effect of three conditions (pH, initial metal concentrati...

the aim of this study is to investigate the nitrate adsorption on granular ferric hydroxide (gfh). the effect of factors such as initial concentration of nitrate, ph, contact time, and adsorbent mass were determined. the study was done in laboratory–scale in which synthetic nitrate solutions in a batch reactor were placed in contact with the adsorbent to model adsorption kinetics. it was found ...
