Sodium pyrophosphate (pyro-P, Na4P2O7), sodium tripolyphosphate (tripoly-P, Na5P3O10), and sodium hexametaphosphate (meta-P, (NaPO3)6) were selected as the model compounds of condensed phosphate to investigate the adsorption behavior of condensed phosphate on aluminum hydroxide. The adsorption was found to be endothermic and divisible into two stages: (1) fast adsorption within 1 h; and (2) slo...

Abstract This study aims to evaluate the water quality and reuse potential of groundwater combined with a saline solution for irrigation. The brine dilution process was done by adding determining total dissolved salts (TDS) value according irrigation criteria then calculating amount be added using law concentrations obtain mixture, as TDS decreased from 4922 3810 mg/l 2587 2200 mg/l, respective...

A series of composites based on nanohydroxyapatite (nHAp) and natural polysaccharides (PS) (nHAp/agar, nHAp/chitosan, nHAp/pectin FB300, nHAp/pectin APA103, nHAp/sodium alginate) was synthesized by liquid-phase two-step method and characterized using nitrogen adsorption-desorption, DSC, TG, FTIR spectroscopy, and SEM. The analysis of nitrogen adsorption-desorption data shows that composites wit...

results the batch kinetics experiments showed that nom adsorption by the adsorbents followed the pseudo-second order model. results showed that the acidic ph is optimum for adsorption of nom by smz. conclusions the findings of this study show that natural zeolite modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate, as a cationic surfactant, is a promising adsorbent for removal of nom. materials and methods in...

In superconformal filling of copper-chip interconnects, organic additives are used to fill high-aspect-ratio trenches or vias from the bottom up. In this study we report on the development of intermolecular potentials and use molecular dynamics simulations to provide insight into the molecular function of an organic additive (3-mercaptopropanesulfonic acid or MPSA) important in superconformal e...

A simple algebraic technique is presented for computing the adjusted sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) index. The statistical formula presented in this note facilitates the computation of the adjusted SAR without the use of a look‐up table, custom computer software, or the need to compute exact individual ion activity coefficients and complexes. A short data analysis example is also presented that ...

conclusions the findings of this study showed that the modification of natural zeolites can achieve higher adsorption capacity for organics. in addition, based on the results, natural zeolite being modified with sds as a cationic surfactant had good efficiency for the adsorption of nom. results the results indicated that sds-modified zeolite showed greatly enhanced adsorption capacity. findings...

background: in this study, the chemical quality of water in some sub-basins of gamasiab river has been investigated for a long term planning of water consuming in the region . methods: the area is about 11 x10 3 km 2 , located in ramadan and kermanshah, the two western regions of iran. in this regard the results of the water samples, which were collected on the outlet of the 13 hydrometrical st...
