Breakthrough Time of Organic Solvent Vapors in Adsorption Column of Activated Carbon under Intermittent Airflow Conditions

Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds from Aqueous Solution by Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) in Batch System

adsorption of volatile organic compounds on fluidized activated carbon bed

conclusions results indicated that annular fluidized bed reactor’s adsorbers are useful techniques for vocs adsorption. comparison of two particle ranges indicates that in all concentrations and all flow rates of the experiments, smaller particle size adsorption are better. in superficial velocity above the minimum fluidization velocity, pressure drop of fluidized beds are less than the pressur...

Silica gel-mediated organic reactions under organic solvent-free conditions.

Silica gel was found to be an excellent medium for some useful organic transformations under organic solvent-free conditions, such as (1) the Friedel-Crafts-type nitration of arenes using commercial aqueous 69% nitric acid alone at room temperature, (2) one-pot Wittig-type olefination of aldehydes with activated organic halides in the presence of tributyl- or triphenylphosphine and Hunig's base...

Comparison of natural organic matter adsorption capacities of super-powdered activated carbon and powdered activated Carbon.

We examined the natural organic matter (NOM) adsorption characteristics of super-powdered activated carbon (S-PAC) produced by pulverizing commercially available, normal PAC to a submicron particle size range. The adsorption capacities of S-PAC for NOM and polystyrene sulfonates (PSS) with molecular weights (MWs) of 1.1, 1.8, and 4.6 kDa, which we used as model compounds, were considerably high...
