The adsorption of ions at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) is primarily controlled by the potential distribution across the interface, which in turn is influenced by the adsorption process. In the present paper, we simulate the effect of the adsorption of charged species on the charge distribution at the ITIES based on the classical description of the interface...

Adsorption on heterogeneous surfaces with three basic energy distribution models (uniform model, exponential model, and normal-like model) is studied. Exact analytical solutions of the adsorption isotherms and the heats of adsorption are derived for the uniform and exponential models, and, with these solutions including a numerical solution for the normal-like model, the behavior of the differe...

Methods of nonlocal density functional theory (NLDFT), proposed recently for predictions of adsorption equilibrium and calculations of pore size distributions in micro- and mesoporous materials, were tested on reference MCM-41 materials. Five newly synthesized MCM-41 adsorbents with presumably uniform pore channels varying from 32 to 45 Å were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen ...

adsorption of cations al, zn, fe, cr and pb from aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide using ir-120 cation-exchange resin was studied. the removal percentage of the cations was examined by varying experimental conditions (such as ph of the hydrogen peroxide solution, temperature, contact time and dosage of adsorbent) in a stirred-batch system. under the optimal conditions (ph=1, t=25oc, contact...

a novel composite adsorbent, silica aerogel activated carbon was synthesized by sol-gel process atambient pressure drying method. the composite was characterized by fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (ft-ir), scanning electron microscopy (sem), differential scanning calorimetry(dsc) and nitrogen adsorption / desorption isotherms (bet).in the present study, the mentioned adsorbent was used m...

−− The adsorption process of Nickel and Vanadium dissolved in acid liquor on lignin is studied in this work. Different adsorption isotherm models are used to adjust liquid-solid systems: Langmuir, Freundlich and Redlich-Peterson. It was obtained that the metal adsorption using lignin proceeds by similar chemical mechanisms. Possibly the Nickel is adsorbed in heterogeneous monolayers, contrary t...

Single-molecule trap: Easy activation of the water-stable metal-organic framework PCN-200 provides a new route to low-energy selective CO(2) capture through stimuli-responsive adsorption behavior. This elastic CO(2) trapping effect was confirmed by single-component and binary gas-adsorption isotherms and crystallographic determination.

soils around mining sites play a significant role in the transport and control of heavy metals in the environment. therefore, understanding the adsorption properties of soil is essential in solving pollution problems. the objective of this paper was to study zn(ii) adsorption onto sarcheshmeh copper mine soils. the adsorption isotherms of zn(ii) were studied. the langmuir isotherm indicated an ...

Grand-canonical Monte Carlo simulations and adsorption experiments are conducted to understand the adsorption of CO2 onto bundles of 3D aligned double-walled carbon-nanotubes of diameter 5 nm at 303 K. The simulation of partial adsorption isotherms, i.e., only inner tube volume, only interstices between tubes, and unrestricted, allows a breakdown of the experimental adsorption isotherms into co...

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...
