Two novel polymers (NJ-1 and NJ-2) were synthesized by chemically modified a hypercrosslinked polymer NJ-0 with dimethylamine and trimethylamine, respectively. The comparison of the adsorption properties of the three polymers toward phenol, resorcin and phloroglucin was made. The study focused on the static equilibrium adsorption behaviors and the adsorption thermodynamics. Freundlich equation ...

One of the causes of water pollution is the presence of heavy metals in water. In the present study, an adsorbent prepared from the raw bark of the Pongamia pinnata tree is used for the removal of ferrous or ferric ions from aqueous and waste water containing heavy metals. Adsorption studies were conducted at different pH, concentration of metal ion, amount of adsorbent, contact time, agitation...

The adsorption equilibrium and kinetics of ethanol-water systems on starch-based adsorbents prepared from cassava were undertaken. These include modified cassava starch (MS), cassava starch (CS), cassava pellet (CP), and Cassava shred (AB). The adsorption equilibrium data were best represented by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The adsorption kinetics was found to follow second order kinetics...

The main aim of the paper is to evaluate ferroprecipitates as immobilization agents for removing selected surfactants from aqueous solutions. Two ferro-precipitates based on iron oxides were used. Adsorbents were varied both in elementary composition and mineral composition. Sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) was used as a model anionic surfactant. Simultaneous measurements of the surfactant’s adsor...

Using in situ polarization modulation infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRAS) and conventional IRAS techniques, the adsorption of NO on Pd(111) was studied from ultra-high-vacuum (UHV) conditions to 400 mbar. New monomeric and non-monomeric high-coverage NO adsorption states were observed at 400 mbar. Initial NO adsorption at 600 K and subsequent cooling in the presence of 400 mba...

A new type of cross-linked chitosan was synthesized with Diethylene Triamine (DCCTS). The adsorption of Se (VI) on DCCTS was studied. The effect factors on adsorption and the adsorption mechanism were considered. The results indicated that the DCCTS could concentrate and separate Se (IV) at pH = 3.6; the maximum adsorption efficiency was 94%, the adsorption equilibrium time was 30 min; the maxi...

-Competitive adsorption between glyphosate and phosphate on goethite was evaluated. The influence of background electrolyte on the adsorption of glyphosate and phosphate was also investigated by using 0.01 M KC1, 0.1 M KC1 and 0.01 M CaCI 2 as background electrolytes. Experiments showed that phosphate displaced adsorbed glyphosate from goethite, whereas glyphosate did not displace phosphate. Re...

the objective of this study was to assess the potential of cadmium sulfide nanoparticles loaded onto activated carbon (cdsn-ac) for the removal of sunset yellow (sy) dye from aqueous solution. adsorption studies were conducted in a batch mode varying solution ph, contact time, initial dye concentration, cdsn-ac dose. in order to investigate the efficiency of sy adsorption on cdsn-ac, pseudo-fir...

Synthetic siderite has been used as adsorbent for As(III) removal in this study. Effects of contact time, temperature, pH, co-existing anions on As(III) adsorption were intensively investigated. Adsorption mechanisms were also studied using the X-ray absorption technique. Results show that the maximum adsorption capacity is up to 9.98 mg g(-1) at 25°C at a siderite dosage of 2 g L(-1). Adsorpti...

sorption reactions in many heterogeneous systems are important. adsorption is a time dependent process and knowing the adsorption rate is essential for designing, evaluating and recovering the adsorbents. at the present study, an ammonium adsorption kinetic experiment by some soils series of golestan provice, which is varying in mineralogical and textural properties was conducted using solution...
