The niobio-cuprates with starting composition, RSr2Nb0.9Cu2.1O7.9; R = Nd, and Tb have been prepared under extreme synthesis conditions and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction technique and their magnetic properties were investigated briefly in this article. The present high-pressure synthesized NdSr2Nb0.9Cu2.1O7.9 (Nd/1212Nb) compound has been compared briefly with the reported ambient p...

In this study, the Langmuir adsorption isotherm has been coupled with activity coefficient models for prediction of surface tension of single and mixed electrolyte solutions. Various activity models such as Meissner, Pitzer and extended UNIQUAC have been used and coupled with Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The model parameters were determined through mathematical optimization using experimental ...

Using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulation we show, for the first time, the influence of the carbon porosity and surface oxidation on the parameters of the Dubinin-Astakhov (DA) adsorption isotherm equation. We conclude that upon carbon surface oxidation, the adsorption decreases for all carbons studied. Moreover, the parameters of the DA model depend on the number of surface oxygen groups. T...

The ability of coconut husk to remove methylene blue from solution was investigated. Factors such as initial dye concentration, contact time, adsorbent dosage and pH of solution were studied. Results show that Langmuir isotherm can be successfully applied to the methylede blue coconut husk system and that coconut husk is a suitable adsorbent for such a dye. Maximum adsorption capacity is 99 mg ...

This study explored the feasibility of using granular ferric hydroxide as adsorbent for the removal of NO3-N. Optimum conditions for NO3-N removal were found to be pH 5.0 and equilibrium time 80min. The equilibrium sorption isotherm was better described by Langmuir sorption isotherm model. The maximum sorption capacity of granular ferric hydroxide was 4.254mg/g at 298K. A comparison of four kin...

Chemical composition of sugar cane vinasse (Tucumán, Argentina) was studied finding high concentration organic compounds. Phenolic compounds were partially characterized, mostly flavonoids, anthocyanins, as well resorcinol and ferulic acid derivatives. Adsorption isotherms phenolic total measured on four commercial activated carbons with different physical chemical properties at two temperature...

in this study, the adsorption of thallium (iii) ion from aqueous solutions onto modified znonanopowder as a fairly low cost adsorbent has been investigated in batch mode. it was found thatmodification of the adsorbent was essential for obtaining the significant adsorption percentage. theadsorbent modified by sodium phosphate solution. the effect of experimental parameters such asinitial ph of s...

Nanoparticles of perovskite-type LaCo0.5Fe0.5O3 (LCFO) were fabricated by sol–gel method.Thermal decomposition process of the complex precursor was examined by means of differentialthermal analysis–thermal gravimetric analysis (DTA/TGA). X-ray diffraction (XRD) resultsshowed that single perovskite phase has been completely formed after calcination at 750 °C. Inaddition, the surface morphology a...

Abstract Coal fly ash (CFA) is a byproduct of thermal power plant and collected from flue gases by separator. Composition CFA depends on the type coal used it has both crystalline amorphous character. It considered to be an environmental pollutant in number areas. useful material widely cement production as promising adsorbent for water remediation. remediation wastewater solves problems relate...

Nitrogen-doped ordered mesoporous carbon was synthesized by using polyaniline as the carbon source and SBA-15 as the template. The microstructure, composition and electrochemical behavior were extensively investigated by the nitrogen sorption isotherm, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and rotating ring-disk electrode. It is found that the pyrolysis temperature yielded a cons...
