A general mathematical model for supercritical CO2 adsorption on activated carbon have been developed. Adsorption curves obtained with a laboratory plant (adsorber of 10 mL) have been adjusted with this model and the results have been extrapolated to adjust the breakthrough curves obtained with a pilot plant (adsorber of 1L). The proposed model is general and takes into account equilibrium (ads...

AlMCM-41 was applied for adsorption of methylene blue (MB) and auramine (AU) in single and binary component systems. In the single component systems, AlMCM-41 represents higher adsorption capacity for MB than AU with the maximal adsorption capacity of 2.07×10−4 and 1.15×10−4 mol/g at 25 ˚C for MB and AU, respectively. In the binary component system, MB and AU exhibit compe...

Equilibrium moisture content (EMC) as a function of relative humidity (RH) was measured in oriented strandboard. particleboard, medium-density fiberboard, hardboard, high pressure laminates, and solid wood. The measurements were made in both adsorption and desorption at 2 9 2 . The EMCRH data were fit to Nelson's sorption isotherm. It was found that Nelson's model can be used to describe the ex...

In this study, the oxidation of dye from colored wastewater by H2O2/ MWCNT’s multi walls carbon nano tubes solution assisted with UV radiation was investigated. Disperse Blue 56 DB 56 was used as a model dye. Adsorption behavior of DB56 from aqueous solution onto MWCNT’s was investigated under various conditions such as initial pH value, dye concentration, H2O2 and MWCNT’s dosage. Maximum adsor...

the work focuses on the removing of cu(ii) from aqueous solution by linde f(k) zeolite. the zeolite is synthesized from fly ash by hydrothermal process. the adsorption experiments discuss several factors including the optimal solution ph, zeolite dosage, adsorption temperature, adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherm equation. the results show that, the optimal solution ph is 6 and the effi...

in this study, mesoporous mcm-41 has been modified by incorporation of aluminum ion asa rapid, simple and inexpensive method for modification. the adsorbent is characterized usingpowder x-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm data. the distributioncoefficient of cadmium ion on the mesoporous aluminosilicates has been enhanced with theincrease of the aluminum in the framewo...

This research presents adsorption potential of surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulphate; SDS) coated magnetite nanoparticles as suitable and efficient adsorbent for the removal of Basic Blue 41 (BB 41), as a cationic dye from textile’s company wastewater. The effects of various experimental parameters (e.g. initial pH of the solution, SDS amount, and ionic strength) on the adsorption efficiency of B...

Most of previous papers in the field of dye removal used one dye or dyes with nearly separate spectra that simplifies dyes concentration determination by Beer's law at different λmax. In many real situations, dyes with highly overlapped spectra exist and their concentrations can be determined by multivariate analysis methods. In this study, principal component-wavelet neural network (PC-WNN) wa...
