jute modified has been used for adsorption of cr (vi), cd (ii) and pb (ii) ions over a range ofinitial metal ion concentration. adsorption process is done in batch mode. adsorption isotherms ofthe heavy metals on adsorbents prepared were determined and correlated with common isothermequations. it was found that the freundlich isotherm is better than langmuir for explaining thebehavior of adsorp...

a type of novel hypercross-linked fiber adsorbent was obtained by sulfonation and cross-linking reaction of polypropylene fiber grafted styrene-divinylbenzene. the aim of the fiber sulfonation and cross-linking method was to prepare rigid three dimensional networks in the entire fiber and change the ion exchange capacity of fiber. the hypercross-linked fiber adsorbent possesses a principally di...

In this study, a series of laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the efficiency of hydroxyapatite (1-iAP)nanopowders towards adsorption of lysozyme from aqueous solution. In the present research. I RP nanopowderssynthesized from egg-shell characterized using SEM and FT-Ht. The adsorption of lysozyme was I mg/mL using0.1 g adsorbent in 100 mL of lysozyme solution. Adsorption data were f...

The IR spectra of adsorbed CO and NO probe molecules were used to characterize the coordination chemistry of Fe(2+) ions in solution ion exchanged Fe,H/SSZ-13 zeolites. The effects of Fe ion exchange levels, as well as the sample pre-treatment conditions, on the adsorption of these probe molecules were investigated. The ion exchange levels (in the range of the study) did not affect significantl...

In this study, Saccharum bengalense(SB) was used as biosorbent for the removal of Mn (II) ions from aqueous solution. The influence of biosorbent dose, time, pH and temperature was investigated in the biosorption process. Studies showed that by increasing pH of the solution, metal removing efficiency of Saccharum bengalensefrom the aqueous environment was enhanced but to a specific extent, ...

This paper reviews various separation techniques used in purification processes to remove pollutants like carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from petroleum products. The most effective include absorption, adsorption, cryogenic distillation, chemical looping combustion, membrane separation. study over 100 published studies assess their characteristics, benefits, drawbacks. choice of technology ...

Corn cob as a low cost adsorbent was used in the present work for the removal of toxic heavy metal Co2+ from aqueous solutions. Bath experiments were used to determine the best adsorption conditions. The equilibrium adsorption level was determined as a function of solution pH, temperature (T), contact time (tc), initial adsorbate concentration, and adsorbent dosage. Effective removal of metal i...

The word, “Cryogenics” is taken from two Greek words – “kryos” which means cold or freezing, and “genes” meaning born or generated. Technologically, it means the study and use of materials (or other requirements) at very low temperatures. In general cryogenic treatment consists of slow cooling already heat treated part to approximately -196C, holding at low temperature up to prescribed period, ...
