The adsorption of Fe2+ by the manganese oxide coated zeolite (MOCZ) and iron oxide coated zeolite (FOCZ) was studied. Surface properties of adsorbents have been investigated for monitoring their changes and morphology for both of the MOCZ and FOCZ. Main variables namely; contact time, pH, initial concentration of Fe2+, size and dosage of adsorbent have been optimized, and the results contrasted...

BACKGROUND In order to remove heavy metals, water treatment by adsorption of zeolite is gaining momentum due to low cost and good performance. In this research, the natural mordenite was used as an adsorbent to remove lead ions in an aqueous solution. METHODS The effects of adsorption temperature, time and initial concentration of lead on the adsorption yield were investigated. Response surfa...

Methyl orange is one dye resulted from the textile industry. The aim of this study is to test theadsorption capacity of nickel oxide nanoparticles for removing the methyl orange from aqueoussolution. The parameters studied were the effect of temperature, contact time and initial pH ofsolution. Results indicate that the removal efficiency of nickel oxide nanoparticles increases withincreasing co...

The potential of activated carbons--powdered (PAC) and granular (GAC), for the adsorption of acrylonitrile (AN) at different initial AN concentrations (50<or=C(0)<or=500 mg/l) from aqueous solutions was studied over the temperature range of 303-333 K. The effect of adsorbent dosage, initial AN concentration, contact time, and the change in pH with addition of adsorbents on adsorption was studie...

The present study was carried out to investigate the potential of carboxylate group functionalized Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT−COOH) adsorbent for the removal of Methyl orange (MO) textile dye from aqueous solutions. The effects of pH, shaking time and temperature on adsorption capacity were studied; the contact time to obtain equilibrium at 298 ˚K was fixed at 25 min. The effect of te...

background and purpose: dye is widely used in industries such as cosmetic, leather, paper and textile and release to the environment via their effluents. the purpose of this study was to compare the efficiency of low-cost adsorbents in acid orang 7 dyes removal from water. materials and methods: the rice stem biomass was sun dried, crushed and sieved to particle sizes in range of 1-2 mm. then t...

In this research, the removal of Reactive Red 198 dye (RR-198) by Cuttlefish bone powder was investigated. The adsorbent was prepared in laboratory conditions and ground by ASTM standard sieves (60-100 mesh). The progress of the process is monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the absorbance of dye at 518 nm wavelength. In addition, the effects of process parameter...

conclusions considering the simplicity and efficiency of zero valent iron powder, this method is recommended for removing azo dyes from aqueous environments. results the results of this research showed ph = 3 and contact time = 120 minutes, increasing the zvi dose from 200 to 5000 mg/l in 100 mg/l dye concentration, increased the adsorption efficiency from 36.78% to 97.57%. rr-198 removal follo...

Background: Dyes can cause many problems in environment. Therefore, removal of these contaminants before discharging wastewater to environment can reduce the environmental hazards. Adsorption is one of the usual processes for decolorizing from wastewater. Nanotubes are new adsorbents that can adsorb different compounds. This work aimed to investigate Acid violet 17 dye removal by adsorption usi...
