batch experiments were conducted to study the adsorption behaviors of lead ion (pb2+) onto ferrihydrites prepared using three different procedures which were characterized  by textural analysis (bet). the adsorption removal of pb2+ by the three ferrihydrites (called fh-1, fh-2 and fh-3, respectively) were compared, and fh-3 shows fast adsorption kinetics as well as high adsorption capacities, t...

in this study, mesoporous mcm-41 has been modified by incorporation of aluminum ion asa rapid, simple and inexpensive method for modification. the adsorbent is characterized usingpowder x-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm data. the distributioncoefficient of cadmium ion on the mesoporous aluminosilicates has been enhanced with theincrease of the aluminum in the framewo...

We show that SiO x , deposited at 5° to the interior surface of a liquid crystal cell allows for a surprisingly substantial reduction in the ion concentration of liquid crystal devices. We have investigated this effect and found that this type of film, due to its surface morphology, captures ions from the liquid crystal material. Ion adsorption on 5° SiO x film obeys the Langmuir isotherm. Expe...

This investigation reveals the capability of Agave lechuguilla for trivalent and hexavalent chromium removal from aqueous solutions. Experimentation included pH profile, time dependence, adsorption capacity (K(F) and Q(L)), adsorption intensity (n and R(L)) and saturation capacity (q(s)) studies. Batch experiments were conducted at 22( composite function)C to characterize and model the adsorpti...

a chelating resin is prepared by condensation polymerization of aniline with formaldehyde andcharacterized by ft-ir, elemental analysis and studied for the preconcentration and determination of traceplatinum ion from environmental water sample using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy(icp-aes). the optimum ph value for sorption of the metal ions was 5. the maximum adsorption...

Composite chitosan-magnetite microparticles (Fe-Cc) were evaluated as a new adsorbent for cobalt and nickel ion separation from aqueous solutions. Sorption batch experiments were conducted for optimizing the pH, initial target ion concentration and adsorbent amount. The experimental data were fitted using Langmuir, Freundlich, and respectively DubininRadushkevich isotherm models. The Langmuir m...

In this work, the activated carbon/magnetic Fe3O4 nanocomposite was synthesized and characterized by TEM and XRD measurements. This magnetic nanocomposite was modified with cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) and thus used as a new adsorbent for removal of azide ion from an aqueous solution. In an aqueous solution of azide ion, the adsorption capacity was evaluated using both the Langmuir and Freund...

Porous zirconium alginate beads as a novel adsorbent were prepared for fluoride removal and characterized by SEM, FTIR, TG, EDX and XPS. The effect of solution pH, adsorbent dose, initial fluoride concentration, contact time, medium temperature and the coexisting ions on adsorption capacity of fluoride ion has been studied. The presence of HCO3 , SO4 2and PO4 3had a large negative impact on flu...

Rice straw/magnetic nanocomposites (RS/Fe3O4-NCs) were prepared via co-precipitation method for removal of Pb(II) and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions. Response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to find the optimum conditions for removal of ions. The effects of three independent variables including initial ion concentration, removal time, and adsorbent dosage were investigated on the maximum ...

The effects of the functional groups and structures of two different resins, weak base/macroporous and strong base/gel type, Purolite A170 and Dowex 21K on the adsorption properties of Re(VII) ions were investigated experimentally and described by the isotherm, kinetic, and thermodynamic modeling. In this regard, four widely used adsorption isotherm models including Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin...
