the steel slag is the main by-product of steel industry. the aim of this study using the steel slag as a low-cost absorbent in order to remove cadmium pollutant from industrial wastewater. some factors that affect the process of cadmium removal by steel slag such as ph, contact time, absorbent dosage and cadmium initial concentration has been studied. standard solution of synthetic wastewater i...

Analytical isotherm equations such as Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms are widely used for modeling adsorption data. However, these isotherms are primarily useful for simulating data collected at a fixed pH value and cannot be easily adapted to simulate pH-dependent adsorption effects. Therefore, most adsorption studies currently use numerical surface-complexation models (SCMs), which are more...

Parameters from single-component isotherm models were used in multicomponent isotherm models to predict the aqueous phase sorption of trichloroethylene (TCE) in the presence of tetrachloroethylene (PCE) in four zeolites, Tenax, and three natural solids. The Langmuir, the Polanyi-Dubinin, and the Freundlich or the Langmuir-Freundlich isotherm models were used to simulate single-component sorptio...

the recovery and removal of the most organic acids in liquid solutions is usually treated with fixed-bed adsorption processes. among many adsorbents, granular activated carbon (gac) is used to remove organic pollutants such as benzoic acid (ba) from wastewaters conventionally. in this research, adsorption isotherm curves of ba onto gac at varying temperatures 25-60 °c are developed and the amou...

the modified surface of typha latifolia l. root (mstl), as an alternative economical adsorbent, wasused for the removal of ni (ii) and cd(ii) ions from aqueous solutions. the effect of initial ph, initialconcentration of metal ion, and contact time was investigated in a batch system at room temperature.the kinetics data could be fitted well by pseudo-second-order model with correlation coeffici...

A preferential interaction quadratic isotherm model for hydrophobic interaction chromatographic systems is presented in this paper. In this isotherm, the nonlinear effect of salt on the capacity factor is described using the preferential interaction model developed by Perkins et al. [J. Chromatogr. A, 766 (1997) 1]. This is then coupled with a quadratic nonlinear isotherm to describe nonlinear ...

In chromatographic separations involving elutes with large differences in the molecular size, the adsorption saturation capacities of the elutes may differ because of the differences in the degree of size exclusion. With uneven saturation capacities, isotherm crossovers may occur, which often results in selectivity reversal. In this work, a new multicomponent isotherm has been developed for thi...

Comparison analysis of linear least-square method and non-linear method of three widely used isotherms (Langmuir, Freundlich, and Redlich-Peterson) were examined to experiment with Remazol Red (C.I. 18221) onto pistachio nut shells at a solution temperature of 293 K. All three isotherm equations showed a better fit to the experimental equilibrium data. The results show that the Langmuir model s...

liquid-phases adsorption equilibrium of phenol onto two naturally available soils namely kalathur soil (kr) and adhanur soil (ar) were studied. the experimental data were analyzed using fourteen isotherm models, ranging from single-parametric model to multi-parametric models (up to 5 parameters) of the system. results show that in general the accuracy of models to fit experimental data improves...
