Removal of 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid Using Fe(OH)3 Based Complex Adsorbent

Removal of microcystin-LR from drinking water using a bamboo-based charcoal adsorbent modified with chitosan.

A new kind of low-cost syntactic adsorbent from bamboo charcoal and chitosan was developed for the removal of microcystin-LR from drinking water. Removal efficiency was higher for the syntactic adsorbent when the amount of bamboo charcoal was increased. The optimum dose ratio of bamboo charcoal to chitosan was 6:4, and the optimum amount was 15 mg/L; equilibrium time was 6 hr. The adsorption is...

Fabrication of Nanoporous Functionalized Hydroxyapatite as High Performance Adsorbent for Acid Blue 25 Dye Removal

In this study, nanoporous hydroxyapatite was synthesized and functionalized via tetraethylenepentamine in order to obtain a novel adsorbent for efficient removal of Acid Blue 25 dye from aqueous solution. Functionalized hydroxyapatite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (...

Industrial toxicology; 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid.

Removal of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid by calcined Zn-Al-Zr layered double hydroxide.

The adsorption equilibrium, kinetics, and thermodynamics of removal of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid (2,4-D) from aqueous solutions by a calcined Zn-Al layered double hydroxide incorporated with Zr(4+) were studied with respect to time, temperature, pH, and initial 2,4-D concentration. Zr(4+) incorporation into the LDH was used to enhance 2,4-D uptake by creating higher positive charges and s...

Metabolism of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid in 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid-resistant soybean callus tissue.

Three 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) -resistant root callus tissue lines of Glycine max L. Merrill var. Acme were derived by culturing callus tissue 2 to 6 months on 40 milligrams per liter 2,4-D and designated 40R, 40B, and 40C. Tissue line 40R had a lower level of 2,4-D uptake in 2-week-old tissue which disappeared in 3.5-week-old tissue and less free 2,4-D following incubation for 24...
