batch experiments were conducted to study the adsorption behaviors of lead ion (pb2+) onto ferrihydrites prepared using three different procedures which were characterized  by textural analysis (bet). the adsorption removal of pb2+ by the three ferrihydrites (called fh-1, fh-2 and fh-3, respectively) were compared, and fh-3 shows fast adsorption kinetics as well as high adsorption capacities, t...

environment contamination by heavy metals is a major issue threatening human health. adsorption is one of the biological processes for removing toxic metals from wastewater. the aim of this study was to determine the rate of lead biosorption from industrial wastewater by spirulina platensis. this laboratory scale experimental study was performed during april 2014 to october 2014 in environmenta...

pollution of water resources by various pollutants is nowadays a global environmental issue. among the different type of water pollutants, dye represents a major polluting group. in this study, azolla filiculides roots have been used for adsorption of malachite green (mg), a cationic dyed from aqueous solution. in this study, effects of operating parameters such as initial concentration of dye ...

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...

the kinetic study of methylene blue (mb) adsorption using acid-activated spent tea (aast) as an adsorbent from aqueous solution with the aim of comparing linear and non-linear regression analysis methods was performed at varying initial mb concentrations (10-100 mg/l). hence, spent tea leaves, which were activated using concentrated sulfuric acid, were prepared. the physicochemical characterist...

in this research, adsorption of dibenzothiophene (dbt) as a model of sulfur containing material has been studied by pb exchanged y-zeolite under different experimental conditions. the adsorption was kinetically fast and high adsorption capacity was obtained. the equilibrium adsorption data were analyzed using langmuir and freunlich isotherm models. the corresponding parameters and correlation c...

in this study, nano-tio2 was employed for the adsorption of chloroform from aqueous solution in batch equilibrium experiments to investigate its adsorption properties. the effects of ph, initial chloroform concentration and nano-tio2 dosage were also investigated. optimal conditions for chloroform removal by nano-tio2 have been then identified. results of equilibrium experiments showed that the...

In this work, zeolite 13X with porosity structure has been used as an adsorbent for adsorption of CO2 flue gas. The effect of operating conditions including pressure and time on adsorption capacity were investigated. The experiments conditions are constant temperature, the range of pressure 1 - 9 bar and the registration of adsorption capacity with passing of time. Experimental data were adjust...
