The adsorption of the proton-pump inhibitor omeprazole was investigated using RP-LC with chemometric models combined with adsorption isotherm modelling to study the effect of pH and type of organic modifier (i.e., acetonitrile or methanol). The chemometric approach revealed that omeprazole was tailing with methanol and fronting with acetonitrile along with increased fronting at higher pH. The i...

The development of a country depends on industrialization and agricultural production. Due to this number of industries and factories like metal industries, dyeing, fertilizers, painting industries are coming continuously which creates severe environmental pollution especially water problem should be created and also cause global warming. To controlling of environmental pollution is very big ch...

BACKGROUND Recently, researchers have tried to design synthetic materials by replicating natural materials as an adsorbent for removing various types of environmental pollutants, which have reached to the risky levels in nature for many countries in the world. In this research, the potential of onion membrane obtained from intermediate of onion shells for adsorption of methylene blue (MB) as a ...

In this work, zeolite 13X with porosity structure has been used as an adsorbent for adsorption of CO2 flue gas. The effect of operating conditions including pressure and time on adsorption capacity were investigated. The experiments conditions are constant temperature, the range of pressure 1 - 9 bar and the registration of adsorption capacity with passing of time. Experimental data were adjust...

Rhodamine B (Rh-B) is one of the most common pollutants in the effluents of textile industries effluents in developing countries. This study was carried out to evaluate the applicability of used black tea leaves (UBTL) for the adsorptive removal of Rh-B from aqueous system by investigating the adsorption kinetics in batch process. The effects of concentration and temperature on adsorption kinet...

In chromatographic separations involving elutes with large differences in the molecular size, the adsorption saturation capacities of the elutes may differ because of the differences in the degree of size exclusion. With uneven saturation capacities, isotherm crossovers may occur, which often results in selectivity reversal. In this work, a new multicomponent isotherm has been developed for thi...

In the present study, the performance of chitosan coated carbon was evaluated for the removal of chromium (VI) and cadmium (II) from its aqueous solution. The chitosan coated carbon was prepared and characterized by using the various analytical tools such as FTIR, TGA, DSC and XRD. Batch adsorption experiments were performed in order to examine the effects of initial concentration, pH, and adso...

The extraction of cellulose from sisal fiber was done initially using the steam explosion method. Extracted cellulose was grafted with acrylic acid in the presence of ceric ammonium nitrate redox initiator. The grafting phenomenon taking place between cellulose and the acrylic acid was proved by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The prepared graft copolymer was used as adsorbent f...

This study examined the interactions of MoO4(2-) + SO4(2-), MoO4(2-) + SeO4(2-), and MoO4(2-) + SeO3(2-) systems on gamma-Al2O3 to better understand the competitive adsorption of these anions in the natural environment. The Freundlich isotherms of anionic adsorption onto gamma-Al2O3 in single and binary solutes were also investigated to estimate the competition between these anions. Experimenta...

A fundamental study on the adsorption of metal elements on Shirasu, a pyroclastic flow deposit distributed in southern Kyushu, Japan, has been conducted. The adsorption experiment was carried out by a batch method, and by using Zn(II) and Cu(II) under several conditions; the effects of the initial concentration of metal ions, grain size, and pH were investigated. At smaller grain sizes, the amo...
