Interactive comment on “Multiscale analysis of nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherms in soils with contrasting pedogenesis and texture” by J. Paz-Ferreiro
نویسنده
چکیده
Review of npg-2015-79 This manuscript presents multifractal analyses of nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherms obtained on soil samples from 6 different soil profiles in São Paulo State, Brazil. There is very little that is new here, and the manuscript essentially repeats the study by Paz-Ferreiro et al. (2013), but in a different geographic area and with some less clayey soils. Although it lacks originality, I suppose there is some incremental new knowledge gained on the effects of soil texture on these types of multifractal analyses. Therefore, I recommend acceptance following minor revisions. My specific comments are itemized below (page #, line #): C1

Adsorption and desorption of lead in Iranian acid and alkaline soils amended with sewage sludge-derived biochar
The effective management of sewage sludge materials in an environmentally and economically acceptable way is through the pyrolytic conversion of the sludge to biochar and its use for agricultural purposes. The aims of this work were: (1) to assess the effect of biochar prepared from sewage sludge at two different temperatures (350 ºC and 650 ºC) on the adsorption/desorptio...
متن کاملModified Nanoporous Carbon Material for Anionic Dye Removal from Aqueous Solution
In this study, the adsorption behavior of anionic dyes from aqueous solution onto mesoporous carbon material (CMK-1) and modified with polymer (PANI/CMK-1) has been investigated as a function of parameters such as adsorbent dose (0.08-0.8 g/L), solution pH 3–10, contact time and initial concentration (10-100 mg/L). The influence of these parameters on the adsorption capacity has been studied us...
متن کاملDirect oxidation of benzene to phenol in liquid phase by H2O2 over vanadium catalyst supported on highly ordered nanoporous silica
Vanadium supported on highly ordered nanoporous silica (VOx-LUS-1) was synthesized and characterized by XRD, Nitrogen adsorption‑desorption isotherms and UV-visible spectrophotometer. Direct oxidation of benzene to phenol in liquid phase by H2O2 peroxide were examined by using various solvents (methanol, acetone, acetic acid, acetonitryl). The maximum yield (25%) and selectivity (73%) of the ph...
متن کاملAdsorption and desorption of herbicide monosulfuron-ester in Chinese soils.
Monosulfuron-ester is a new, low rate, sulfonylurea herbicide that is being promoted for annual broadleaf and gramineal weed control; however, there is a lack of published information on its behavior in soils. The adsorption and desorption of monosulfuron-ester by seven type soils were measured using a batch equilibrium technique. The results showed that the Freundlich equation fitted its adsor...
متن کاملZinc Sorption by Acid, Calcareous and Gypsiferous Soils as Related to Soil Mineralogy
Zinc (Zn) availability and mobility in soils is controlled by its interaction with the soil matrix and amendments. Contradicting evidence has been reported for factors influencing Zn behavior in soils. The aim of this study was to investigate the Zn sorption in selected acid, calcareous and gypsiferous soils with different background electrolytes (Na+, K+ and H2PO4, NO3 and Cl backgrounds). Iso...
