Dyeing wastewaters are one of the most common pollutants that cause many problems for public health and environment due to dermatitis and skin rashes, cancer production, mutagenesis, etc. Thus, treatment of these wastewaters is necessary. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficiency of montmorillonite nanoparticles as an adsorbent in adsorption process of Reactive Ye...

The reaction of fly ash with a KOH solution was used to synthesize Linde F(K) zeolite, following which Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize the crystalline material. The competitive adsorption of Cu, Ni, Pb, and Cd onto this zeolite was subsequently studied in quaternary solution systems. The results show that the metal removal rates gradually increase with incr...

the adsorption study was conducted on three japanese soils with different soil properties to characterize the adsorption pattern of arsenic (as). double tube method was used to find out the effect of soil moisture levels on as adsorption. for this study, besides double tube method, conventional batch method also was used. the as adsorption showed two phase kinetics. an initial and rapid adsorpt...

A novel stochastic model is proposed to characterize the adsorption kinetics of pollutants including dyes (direct red 80 and direct blue 1), fluoride ions, cadmium ions removed by calcium pectinate (Pec-Ca), aluminum xanthanate (Xant-Al), reed leaves, respectively. The based on a transformation over time following Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, which explicitly includes uncertainty involved in pro...

The evolution of the microemulsion technique in the last years is revised with special emphasis in the mechanisms of control of particle size, namely the control by the proper microemulsions and the control by the surfactant adsorption (capping). The kinetics of the particle formation; the possibility of the preparation of coatings, core-shell and ‘onion-like’ structures with a very precise siz...

Phenol removal from wastewater is very widely studied area of research. The practical approach for phenol removal by adsorption involves study of batch adsorption and more importantly the fixed bed operation. In the present study, various aspects of fixed bed adsorption for phenol have been discussed. The review of research carried out on this topic is presented. The phenol removal in fixed bed...

The kinetics of tertiarybutylphosphine adsorption and phosphorus desorption from indium phosphide (001) have been determined using reflectance difference spectroscopy for real-time monitoring of the phosphorus coverage. The precursor adsorption rate depends linearly on the coverage, and the initial sticking coefficient varies from 0.007 to 0.001 as the temperature increases from 420 to 520 C. T...

The aim of this investigation was to determine the adsorption behavior and kinetics of methylene blue in aqueous solution on activated carbons prepared from papaya seeds by way of the two stage activation method in self-generated atmosphere using a muffle furnace. The optimised activated carbon, AK7, had a sorption kinetic that complied with the pseudo-second order kinetics and was fitted well ...

An adsorption-desorption (or parking-lot) model can reproduce qualitatively the densification kinetics and other features of a weakly vibrated granular material. Here we study the the two-time correlation and response functions of the model and demonstrate that their behavior is consistent with recently observed memory effects in granular materials. Although the densification kinetics and hyste...
