Animal bone charcoal (ABC) produced from animal bones was used as adsorbent to remove Cr(VI) from its aqueous solution . Labority experimental investigation was carried out to identify the effect of contact of time, pH, adsorbent dose and initial concentration on the adsorption of chromium from metal solution. Results showed that pH 2 was the most suitable, while the removal of Cr(VI) ions with...

Rice husk carbon (RHC) has been prepared from rice husk impregnated with 50% H3P04 and carbonised at 300°C. Its adsorption capacity has been tested for the decolourization of wastewater containing safranine and methylene blue. The effect of system variables such as concentration, temperature, pH, contact time, adsorbent dosage and particle size are investigated. Removal of dye has been found to...

This article describes the use of a power plant waste-Bottom Ash, as effective adsorbent for the removal of toxic Azo dyes Carmoisine and Chrysoidine Y from their aqueous solution. The paper incorporates comparative study and discussion of the adsorption characteristics of these dyes on the economically effective adsorbent with special emphasis on the effects of time and temperature. The charac...

deficiency of water resources is one of the major challenges at the global scale and also in iran. the existence water resources of oceans and seas such as the caspian sea and persian gulf in the north and southern parts of iran respectively, can be considered as the alternative to dominate the future problem. this study is processed absorption of nacl based-on natural zeolite and perlite. in o...

Adsorption isotherms of 10 pesticides and their biodegradation intermediates on clay minerals and soils were investigated to predict the fate of pesticides in the environment. The adsorption isotherms were expressed by the Freundlich isotherm equation. Pentachloronitrobenzene, 2,4,6-trichlorophenyl-4′-nitrophenylether, and various intermediates were highly adsorbed on soils, although isoprothio...

A thiol-functionalized magnetite/graphene oxide (MGO) hybrid as an adsorbent of Hg2+ was successfully synthesized by a two-step reaction. It exhibited a higher adsorption capacity compared to the bare graphene oxide and MGO due to the combined adsorption of thiol groups and magnetite nanocrystals. Its capacity reached 289.9 mg g-1 in a solution with an initial Hg2+ concentration of 100 mg l-1. ...

−− The adsorption process of Nickel and Vanadium dissolved in acid liquor on lignin is studied in this work. Different adsorption isotherm models are used to adjust liquid-solid systems: Langmuir, Freundlich and Redlich-Peterson. It was obtained that the metal adsorption using lignin proceeds by similar chemical mechanisms. Possibly the Nickel is adsorbed in heterogeneous monolayers, contrary t...

The ability of Clinoptilolite powder to adsorb Ni (II) ions from wastewater which was taken from a nickel plating factory was investigated through batch experiments. The Ni (II) adsorption was found to be dependent on mass of adsorbent, contact time, pH value of solution and the speed of agitation. The experimental isotherms data were fitted into Langmuir and Freundlich models. The monolayer ad...

Adsorption capacity of Cr (VI) onto sawdust of aspen tree and activated sawdust, was investigated in a batch system by considering the effects of various parameters like contact time, initial concentration, pH , temperature, agitation speed, absorbent dose and particle size. Cr (VI) removal is pH dependent and caused to be maximum at pH 2.0. The amounts of Cr(VI) adsorbed increased with increas...
