Background: Considering the severe health and environmental hazards caused by the entry of diazinon toxin into water resources, its removal is very important. Given the high costs of imported adsorbents, this research attempted to evaluate, for the first time, the efficiency of Iranian activated carbon in removing diazinon from aqueous solutions. Methods: In this batch experimental study, the ...

the modeling of kinetic and isotherm curves acquired in adsorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) as a model compound (phenanthrene) on activated carbons in the organic solvent. all the runs were carried out in a batch system at atmospheric pressure, process temperature of 24±2°c, and using the 100 ml phenanthrene in cyclohexan. this experimental work was mainly focused on the study...

This paper presents the adsorption of crystal violet (CV+) from aqueous solution on surfactant-modified dolomite. Liquid phase batch operations were carried out to observe the effect of various experimental parameters such as initial dye concentration, adsorbent dosage, pH and NaCl concentration. The optimum conditions for these parameters were calculated by Taguchi method. Equilibrium isotherm...

Magnetic zeolite/iron oxide nanocomposite was prepared by mixing zeolite synthesized from coal fly ashes with magnetite nanoparticles in suspension and was used for the removal of Reactive Orange 16 (RO16) and Indigo Carmine (IC) from aqueous solutions. The effect of various experimental parameters such as contact time, pH, adsorbent dose and temperature were investigated. The experimental data...

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...

introduction: discharging of industrial colored wastewaters especially into aqueous environments can cause adverse effects on aquatic life due to their toxic natures. in this study, montmorillonite modified by hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (hdtma-mt) was used for the adsorption of methylene blue (mb). materials and methods: the influence of surfactant loading rate, contact time, ph, adsor...

This paper presents the feasibility of removal of MB dye from aqueous solution using activated carbon prepared from Usoro fiber (Adenia lobata). FTIR analysis revealed that many functional groups were present on the surface of the adsorbent. The adsorption Kinetics was analyzed by pseudo first order, pseudo second order and intra particle diffusion kinetics models. Results showed that MB adsorp...

Cauliflower leaf powder (CLP), a biosorbent prepared from seasonal agricultural crop waste material, has been employed as a prospective adsorbent for the removal of a basic dye, methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution by the batch adsorption method under varying conditions, namely, initial dye concentration, adsorbent dose, solution pH, and temperature. Characterization of the material by FTI...

in this study caulerpa racemosa has been characterized and used for the removal of cd(ii) and pb (ii) from aqueous solutions. the effect of ph, adsorbent dosage, contact time and temperature on adsorption process was studied in batch experiments. langmuir and freundlich models were applied to describe the biosorption isotherm of the metal ions by c. racemosa biomass. the adsorption data can be ...
