AlMCM-41 was applied for adsorption of methylene blue (MB) and auramine (AU) in single and binary component systems. In the single component systems, AlMCM-41 represents higher adsorption capacity for MB than AU with the maximal adsorption capacity of 2.07×10−4 and 1.15×10−4 mol/g at 25 ˚C for MB and AU, respectively. In the binary component system, MB and AU exhibit compe...

in this study chitosan hydrogel beads with porosity ~ 0.86 and diameter ~ 20.07 mm were prepared from 85 % deacetylated chitosan for removal of cd2+ ions from aqueous solutions.  chitosan powder was dissolved into dilute acetic acid as solvent and formed into spherical beads using a phase inversion technique. the effect of temperature, initial concentration of cd2+ ions, and the period of agita...

This paper deals with a theoretical mathematical analysis of one-dimensional solidification problem, in which kinetic undercooling is incorporated into the This temperature condition at the interface. A model problem with nonlinear kinetic law is considered. We prove a local result intimate for the uniqueness of solution of the corresponding free boundary problem.

The kinetic study of methylene blue (MB) adsorption using acid-activated spent tea (AAST) as an adsorbent from aqueous solution with the aim of comparing linear and non-linear regression analysis methods was performed at varying initial MB concentrations (10-100 mg/l). Hence, spent tea leaves, which were activated using concentrated sulfuric acid, were prepared. The physicochemical characterist...

the adsorption of lead (11) and copper (11) in a fixed bed column using activated carbonprepared from nipa palm nut was investigated. thomas model and yoon and nelson kinetic models were used to analyze the column performance. the rate constant for thomas model increased with increase in flow rate and initial ion concentration but remained constant at varying bed height. adsorption capacity for...

In this article, the improved space-time conservation element and solution element (CESE) method are used to simulate the dynamic treatment of the hydrocracking reactor. The dynamic model consists of four lumps: vacuum gas oil (VGO), middle distillate, naphtha, and gas which is dissolved by this method. The offered method can solve the partial differential equations caused by the reactions insi...

in this study simulation and optimization of an industrial acetylene hydrogenation reactor was studied. three well known kinetic models were used for a nearly similar catalyst to predict the industrial data. due to the complexity of the reactions, none of the offered kinetic models could be considered as an exact kinetic model and it is necessary to determine the kinetic parameters. one of the ...

A novel computational fluid dynamics and molecular kinetic theory (CFD-MK) method was developed to simulate the impingement of a nanodroplet onto a solid surface. A numerical solution of the Navier–Stokes equation using a volume-of-fluid (VOF) technique was used to model nanodroplet deformation. Dynamic contact angle during droplet impact was obtained by molecular kinetic theory. This dynamic c...

in this study, nano-tio2 was employed for the adsorption of chloroform from aqueous solution in batch equilibrium experiments to investigate its adsorption properties. the effects of ph, initial chloroform concentration and nano-tio2 dosage were also investigated. optimal conditions for chloroform removal by nano-tio2 have been then identified. results of equilibrium experiments showed that the...
