BACKGROUND Multimodal ion exchangers, containing ligands combining charged and hydrophobic moieties, exhibit enhanced separation compared to monomodal exchangers under low loading conditions. Commercial applications often require high protein loads such conditions have not been investigated extensively, especially for multimodal anion exchangers. This work compares adsorption by frontal chromat...

in order to evaluate the adsorption potential of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) for benzene, toluene and xylenes (btx), the adsorption capacities of benzene and toluene on two different mwcnts were measured using a gas-chromatography (gc) and then compared with each other. fourier transform infrared (ftir) was employed to investigate the presence of functional groups on the carbon nanot...

we utilize isotherm models in contributing to scholarly knowledge in simple terms, to measure the forces or energy defining certain adsorption phenomenon. gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrophotometer detector (gcms) was utilized to measure equilibrium phase atrazine after adsorption onto shea nut shells (ss) acid derived activated carbon. data were fitted into the d-r and temkin isoth...

the aim of this study was to investigate the removal of toluene from air through nano-graphene modified by ionic liquid (ng-il). the batch adsorption experiments in glass bottle of gas chromatography equipped with flame ionization detector (gc-fid) were used. graphene ultrahigh-quality synthesized by substrate-free gas-phase method in a single step and graphene sheets were deposited with ionic-...

Many modern launch vehicles use unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) as liquid fuel in the space program. UDMH is highly toxic and poses a serious threat to the environment and to humans. One of the most effective methods of UDMH neutralization in case of fuel spills is adsorption. This paper is the first to suggest using hydrolysis lignin as rocket fuel adsorbent. The research was based ...

Suppose we flow through an adsorption or chromatograph column so fast that the adsorption is not at equilibrium at a given point in the column. This departure from equilibrium could be either due to diffusion resistance within the porous particles of the column or due to kinetic limitation of the adsorption process. Alternatively, you may wish to separate different size macromolecules by the di...

This work reports the thermodynamic characterizations of organometallic species as a vehicle for the rapid separation of volatile nuclear fission products via gas chromatography due to differences in adsorption enthalpy. Because adsorption and sublimation thermodynamics are linearly correlated, there is considerable motivation to determine sublimation enthalpies. A method of isothermal thermogr...
