In this research, adsorption of dibenzothiophene (DBT) as a model of sulfur containing material has been studied by Pb exchanged Y-zeolite under different experimental conditions. The adsorption was kinetically fast and high adsorption capacity was obtained. The equilibrium adsorption data were analyzed using Langmuir and Freunlich isotherm models. The corresponding parameters and correlation c...

the objective of this study is synthesis and characterization of the chitosan-silica composite (csc) and use them as an adsorbent material for peat water treatment. the resulting composite was characterizedby fourier transform infrared (ftir) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (sem), x-ray diffraction(xrd), n2 adsorption-desorption isotherm and zeta potential. the sorption experiments w...

An innovative method is proposed for approximation of the set of radial diffusion equations governing mass exchange between aqueous bulk phase and intra-particle phase for a hetero-disperse mixture of particles such as those occurring in suspension in surface water, in riverine/estuarine sediment beds, in soils and in aquifer materials. For this purpose the temporal variation of concentration a...

A two-dimensional single particle finite element model was used to examine the effects of particle fragmental pattern on the average molecular weights, polymerization rate and particle overheating in heterogeneous Ziegler-Natta olefin polymerization. A two-site catalyst kinetic mechanism was employed together with a dynamic two-dimensional molecular species in diffusion-reaction equation. The i...

Molecular semiconductors are increasingly used in devices, but understanding of elementary nanoscopic processes in molecular film growth is in its infancy. Here we use real-time in situ specular and diffuse X-ray scattering in combination with kinetic Monte Carlo simulations to study C60 nucleation and multilayer growth. We determine a self-consistent set of energy parameters describing both in...

the present study was carried out to investigate the potential of single-walled carbon nanotube (swcnts) and carboxylate group functionalized single-walled carbon nanotube (swcnt-cooh) as alternative adsorbents for the removal of basic red 46 (br 46) from contaminated water by using batch adsorption studies. effects of some key operating parameters such as ph, ionic strength and contact time on...

in the present investigation, shells of pistachio are used as adsorbents and they have been successfully used for the removal of blue 56, from water samples. the effect of various parameters such as: ph, amounts of adsorbents, size of adsorbent particles and contact time on removal processing were investigated. in this study freundlich absorption isotherms and langmuir were investigated . the e...

the present study was carried out to investigate the potential of carboxylate group functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnt−cooh) adsorbent for the removal of methyl orange (mo) textile dye from aqueous solutions. the effects of ph, shaking time and temperature on adsorption capacity were studied; the contact time to obtain equilibrium at 298 ˚k was fixed at 25 min. the effect of te...
