abstract aims: even low concentrations of phenol in industrial waste can cause many difficulties for the aquatic environment. so removal of this organic matter is an important issue. the adsorption process, is one of the most effective methods for isolation and purification of phenols. the aim of this study was to introduce wood haloxylon as a natural and new absorbent to remove phenol from aqu...

in the paper we developed a new method to determine the absolute amount of adsorption. this method relies on the excess adsorption isotherm and the density profile in the pore of one material. to compute the density profile and decrease complex calculation of obtaining the absolute amount of adsorption we introduced simplified local-density (sld) model. a few of appropriate parameters were acqu...

applying nanoporous materials is an appropriate method for improving chemical quality of the water due to high surface area, internal porous structure (porosity), high absorption capability of harmful gases and liquids, and capability of reactivating the surface. therefore, actions were carried out in order to investigate the effect of activated carbon and zeolite on reducing the total dissolve...

Since a high toxicity of cyanide which use as a reagent in the gold processing plant, thiosulfate has been recognized as a environmental friendly reagent for leaching of gold from ore. After gold leaching process it's important for recovery of gold from solution using adsorption or extraction methods, One of these methods is activated carbon.The loading of gold from industrial thiosulfate solut...

Carbon activated powdered was prepared from activated carbon derived from olive stone. Then byusing the surface methodology, many parameters such as pH, furnace temperature (T), acid ratio,time of activation that affect on the qualities prepared activated carbon produced and its efficiencywere investigated. In addition, the adsorption of Congo Red onto the activated olive stone carbonactive was...

background: the widespread use of toluene and its consequent adverse effects on health and specially its chronic effects on the central nervous system has resulted in many studies being carried out on the methods that can control and reduce toluene vapors in the airflow. the objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the catalytic ozonation process in the removal of toluene from ...

in this work, the removal of copper from an aqueous solution by granular activated carbon (gac) in the presence of competitor ions was studied. a batch adsorption was carried out and different parameters such as ph, contact time, initial copper concentration and competitor ions concentration were changed to determine the optimum conditions for adsorption. the optimum ph required for maximum ads...

abstract introduction: due to environmental and human health concerns related to humic acid (ha), mainly leading to disinfection by-products creation, removal or reduction of this matters is a necessary for drinking water suppliers. based on resistive economy map road and move to self-sufficiency, it is necessary to produce our need in water treatment industry. one of the main consumed material...

feasibility of methanolic wastes treatment containing chlorophenol in experimental uasb reactors i.e. r-i and r-ii working side by side constantly for a couple of almost 32 weeks were studied. uasb reactor r-i was initiated by utilizing the digested sludge alone, whereas, the uasb reactor r-ii was startedup by adding an activated carbon of an effective size 1.5-2.5mm to the digested sludge with...
