The objective of this study was to determine the performance of modified commercial powdered activated carbon (MCPAC) in removal of ammonia from aqueous solution. The effects of adsorbent dosage (0.5–1.5 g/L), ammonia concentration (100–200 mg/L), pH (3 to 9) and contact time (2 to 120 min) were examined. In this study, experiments were performed based on Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The...

in this study, the removal of as (v) from water resources by using aluminum-coated pumice as a new adsorbent was assessed. the features of the adsorbent coating layer were observed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem).the effects of various parameters such as adsorbent doses, ph, contact time, arsenate initial concentration and interfering ions in arsenic adsorpt...

Introduction: Dyes have complicated structures, they are usually toxic and resistant to biological treatment and enter the environment through industrial waste streams. The aim of this study was to review the isotherm and kinetic adsorption studies of Reactive Blue 19 (RB19) dye onto Jujube stems powder from synthetic textile wastewater. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted in labo...

The present research describes the performance of NiO NPs/Ag-clinoptilolite composite adsorbent for the removal of uranium (U(VI)) ions from drinking water of Dezful city-Iran. Prior to the experiment reactions, Na-clinoptilolite was chemically treated with NaCl, Silver ions (Ag+) and subsequently Nickel (NiO) NPs to prepare NiO NPs/Ag-clinoptilolite. The samples were characterized by SEM, AAS,...

The adsorption of contaminants plays an important role in the process of their elimination from a polluted environment. This work describes the issue of loading environment with lead Pb(II) and the resulting negative impact it has on plants and living organisms. It also focuses on bentonite as a natural adsorbent and on the adsorption process of Pb(II) ions on the mixture of bentonite and botto...

This study explored the feasibility of using granular ferric hydroxide as adsorbent for the removal of NO3-N. Optimum conditions for NO3-N removal were found to be pH 5.0 and equilibrium time 80min. The equilibrium sorption isotherm was better described by Langmuir sorption isotherm model. The maximum sorption capacity of granular ferric hydroxide was 4.254mg/g at 298K. A comparison of four kin...
