We present a comprehensive assessment of the thermophysical properties of an industrial, pilot-scale version of the prototype adsorbent, metal–organic framework 5 (MOF-5). These properties are essential ingredients in the design and modeling of MOF-5-based hydrogen adsorption systems, and may serve as a useful starting point for the development of other MOF-based systems for applications in cat...

Untreated wastewater disposal containing synthetic dyes produces serious problems in the environment. Industrial wastewater containing dye requires treatment by a suitable process before discharging into the environment. The present study has been performed as a batch experimental study. Nanochitosan was synthesized from the Persian Gulf shrimp shell. The effect of the various parameters in...

Adsorption of Nickel(II) ion onto Activated Carbon prepared from Delonix regia pods activated with Zinc chloride (DRZAC) under various experimental conditions were studied. Batch mode adsorption experiments were conducted. The characteristics of the DRZAC were determined by SEM, XRD, FTIR, BET analysis and pHZPC. The maximum removal efficiency of Ni(II) ion is 85% at pH 6. Under the chosen cond...

mtbe (methyl tertiary-butyl ether) is an oxygenated organic matter which is widely used nowadays in some countries in unleaded gasoline. mtbe is a toxic substance which is absorbed quickly on water and soil and is one of the most important pollutants in soils and groundwater resources. in order to remove mtbe from the soil, using different experimental methods, determining reliable methods for ...

Adsorption is the most versatile and widely used method for the removal of pollutants due to its high efficiency and ease of operation at large scale. In recent years nano metal oxides have been extensively used for the removal of pharmaceutical pollutants from waste water. In the present study, the adsorption behaviour of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride from aqueous medium, using CuO nanoparticles...

Adsorption equilibrium and kinetics on lignocellulosic base adsorbents from oil palm bagasse (OPB) yam peels (YP) were studied for the removal of hexavalent chromium present in aqueous solution, a batch system, evaluating effect temperature, adsorbent dose particle size process. Isotherms fitted to Langmuir, Freundlich Dubinin–Radushkevich isothermal models. Kinetic data adjusted pseudo-first-o...

Adsorption is an effective remediation technique for petroleum hydrocarbons because of its ease of use and high efficiency. The utilization of high-carbon content industrial by-products in such applications can present significant economic and environmental advantages. In this study, batch adsorption tests and petrographic analyses were used to investigate the adsorption of two nonpolar petrole...

The entrance of Cd (II) to aqueous environments causes a major problem to human health. The current article examines the efficiency of TiO2 and γ-Al2O3 nanoparticles in Cd (II) removal from aqueous medium as influenced by different chemical factors, such as pH, initial concentration, background electrolyte, and ionic strength, in accordance with standard experimental methods. It conducts Batch ...
