background: heavy metals, even at low concentrations, are harmful to human health and environment. cadmium as a heavy metal is highly toxic and can cause serious threat to living organisms. this research was designed to evaluate the adsorption potential of modified magnetic iron nanoparticles by 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol ligand for the removal of cadmium ions from water solu...

The present study seeks to investigate the capacity of polyaniline/titanium dioxide (PAn/TiO2) and Polypyrrole/titanium dioxide (PPy/TiO2) nano-adsorbents to adsorb Congo red anionic dye (CR) from aqueous solution. The variables effective in CR adsorption, including adsorbent dose, pH of the solution, contact time, initial dye concentration, and temperature were examined. The study yielded the ...

canola is a prominent oil seed crop with a very high production potential in iran and the production process of which needs to be optimized. drying is an important part of the processing of the crop with emc values playing a vital role in the process. in this research adsorption and desorption experiments were conducted in an environmental chamber for licord variety of canola. the thin layer ex...

organic acids exuded by plant roots increase solubility of soil micronutrient complexes. this study was carried out to evaluate adsorption isotherms of 4 acidic and 4 calcareous soils at presence of organic acids (citric, malic and oxalic acids). iron sorption and desorption isotherms are defined in to two systems including; system 1; soil-water-metal, system 2; soil-water-organic acid-metal). ...

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...

the interaction between some heavy metal ions such as of pb(ii), cd(ii) and cu(ii) ions from aqueous solution adsorbed by single walled carbon nanotube (swcnts) and carboxylate group functionalized single walled carbon nanotube (swcnt-cooh) surfaces were studied by atomic absorption spectroscopy. the effect of contact time, ph, initial concentration of ion, ionic strength and temperature on the...

background and purpose: phenol and derivatives are common pollutants of drinking water which are blamed for crucial adverse effects such as poisoning, cancer, and malformation. in this study, an activated carbon of miswak’s root (mr) was used for the removal of phenol from aqueous solutions as a low-cost and high surface adsorbent. materials and methods: adsorption experiments were then conduct...

the objective of this study was to assess the adsorption potential of activated carbon (ac) asan adsorbent for the removal of murexide (mu) from aqueous solutions. the influence of variablesparameters including ph, amount of adsorbent, sieve size of adsorbent, temperature and contact timeon mu removal was studied. following optimization of variables, the relation between concentrations ofdye re...
