Zeolitic tuffs are found in different parts of the world. Iranian zeolite is a low-cost material that can be frequently found in nature. Surfactant-modified zeolite (SMZ) can be used for the adsorption of natural organic matter (NOM) from aqueous solutions. The adsorption study was conducted to evaluate the adsorption capacity of SMZ; furthermore, the effects of contact time, initial pH, and th...

The present study was conducted for the removal of color of pulp and paper mill effluent using coal fly ash as an adsorbent. The effect of adsorbent dose and pH on color removal has been determined. 100 % color removal was achieved when adsorbent dose was 2.4 gm or more and at pH 6.8 and above.

An Adsorbent based treatment system is presented for toxic metal removal from rinsewater streams. The adsorbent is a Mg-A1 oxide anion exchange material with high capacity (approaching 5.5 meq/g) and strong selectivity for difficult to treat species such as Electroless plating metal chelates, Fixed Cyanides and chrome conversion solutions. Data is presented describing treatment of various metal...

Adsorption of dye methylene blue from aqueous solution on the surface of sheep wool and cotton fibers was accomplished under the optimize conditions of temperature, concentration, pH, stay time duration and quantity of adsorbent. Spectrometric technique was used for the measurements of concentration of dye before and after adsorption. The percentage removal and distribution constant (KD) values...

abstractin this work, the micro powder was the product of cedar leaf (mpcl) is used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of pb2+ ions from aqueous solutions. bath experiments were used to determine the best adsorption conditions the adsorption percentage of pb2+ ions mpcl samples at different initial ph, contact time (tc), adsorbent dosage and temperature (t) were investigated. effective rem...

one pollutant which seriously threatens water resources is dye. therefore, finding a suitable method to separate the dye in water resources is very important. an adsorption process that uses low cost adsorbents is considered as an efficient strategy for this purpose. in this study, erythrosine dye removal from an aquatic environment using natural absorbents, namely sorghum and ziziphus nummular...

industrial effluents, especially the textile industry are discussed as one of the fundamental problems of the environment .dyes are materials with complex structures that enter into the wastewater from different stages of the textile industry. colors are often toxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic. this study investigated the absorption efficiency of reactive red 198 dye from aqueous solutions by p...

Wastewaters obtained from fenvalerate manufacturing process were treated for its safe disposal using activated coconut shell carbon (acc) as adsorbent. In this work, the removal efficiency of organic matter in terms of chemical oxygen demand (COD) utilizing acc has been investigated. Various parameters which can influence the adsorption like adsorbent dosage, contact time of solution with adsor...

Abstract In recent years, the treatment of dye wastewater has attracted more attention because its harmful impact on environment. Therefore, should be treated using effective methods, such as adsorption, which is widely employed to remediate many dyes from wastewater. This work studied use Laurus Nobilis Leaves (LNL) and sawdust (SD) low-cost natural adsorbents reactive blue (RB) synthetic unde...

background aromatic organic solvents are extensively used in various industries. xylene is a colorless, transparent liquid, with the characteristic odor of the aromatic hydrocarbons family, which is widely used in industries. adsorption is a conventional method of purifying polluted air containing volatile organic compounds (vocs). zeolite has many unique properties such as high capacity, molec...
