In this paper, the adsorption of cerium on modified Mesoporous aluminosilicate (with Si/Al mole ratio of 10) was studied. The effects of pH, contact time, initial concentration of cerium on adsorption of cerium were investigated. The adsorption capacity was high in the pH range of 4-8 and decreases with decreasing of the pH value. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were applied to represent ...

The adsorption behaviour of Methyl violet and Auramine yellow from aqueous solution onto Stishovite clay was investigated as a function of parameters such as initial dye concentration, contact time, p and temperature. The Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models were applied to describe the equilibrium isotherms. Adsorption followed pseudo-second order model. The experimental data fitted well ...

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...

introduction one concern in the disposal of municipal solid waste (msw) by landfill is the production of leachate. acidic water is capable of dissolving elements from the waste; and, as a result, the leachate can become quite contaminated. one of the heavy metals present in leachate, cadmium poses a great concern in terms of environmental contamination since it is toxic to nearly all living org...

background: phenol is an organic pollutant found in industrial effluents that is very toxic to humans and the environment. this study used pomegranate peel ash as a natural absorbent to remove phenol from aqueous solutions. methods: in this study, pomegranate peel ash in different doses was used as a new adsorbent for the removal of phenol. the effects of contact time, ph, adsorbent dose and in...

An experimental study has been conducted on the adsorption of Direct red-28 dye using activated carbon prepared from Punica granatum (Pomegranate rind) by chemical activation with sulphuric acid. BET surface area of the activated carbon was determined as 1075.6 m.g and SEM observations showed the amorphous nature of the carbon. Adsorption kinetics, equilibrium and thermodynamics were investigat...

the removal ofxylenol orange from aqueous solution onto the coal ash was investigated at room temperature. the results show that the adsorption capacity of xylenol orange increased as the adsorption time increased and then equilibrium established after 30 min adsorption time. the results obtained revealed that the coal ash removed about 80 % of xylenol orange from the aqueous solution within 40...

Phosphorus sorption characteristics of some Indian representative agricultural soils belonging to four soil orders namely Vertisol, Inceptisol, Alfisol and Ultisol were investigated for adsorption behaviour of P and sorption data were fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich equations. The Langmuir constant i.e. adsorption maxima was highest for Vertisol (716.85 μg g -1 ), followed by Ultisol (633.3 μ...

bioremediation of heavy metals remains a major challenge in environmental biotechnology. biosorption is a novel technique for decreasing metal ion content in the waste water. biosorption experiments for cu (ii) were investigated in this study using bacteria isolated from the industrial effluent. the results showed that the dead cells of pseudomonas sp. were an efficient adsorbent of cu (ii). fo...
