The potential of spherical lignin beads as an adsorbent to take up Llysine from aqueous solution was investigated. The kinetic data were estimated by the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models. The mechanism of adsorption was also studied using the Boyd model and Webber’s intraparticle diffusion model. The equilibrium data were modeled by the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushk...

A literature review of the use of sorbents and biosorbents to treat polluted aqueous effluents containing dyes/organics or metal ions has been conducted. Over 70 systems have been reported since 1984 and over 43 of these reported the mechanism as being a pseudo-first order kinetic mechanism. Three sorption kinetic models are presented in this paper and have been used to test 11 of the literatur...

background: the aim of this study was to propose a new stochastic model to study the time course of ethanol elimination in human bodies. methods: the times and amount of alcohol ingested are assumed to be random in controllable intervals. constant elimination rate follows zero order kinetics and is replaced by first order kinetics when the effects of alcohol increase due to alcohol ingestion. s...

oxidation of methyl orange (mo) solution in potassium peroxydisulfate (kps) homogeneous reaction system without uv irradiation was investigated. the result shows that decolorization of mo increases as the dosage of k2s2o8 increases. the kinetic results demonstrate that the decolorization reaction is a pseudo first-order reaction when the concentration of mo is below 10 mg/l and langmuir–hinshew...

in this work, magnetically separable zno-znfe2o4-ppy nanocomposite as an efficient adsorbent was synthesized by two steps. at first, zinc oxide (zno) and znfe2o4 nanoparticles were synthesized using simple and facile precipitation method. then, zno-znfe2o4 mixed oxide was modified by polypyrrole (ppy). the adsorbent was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), fourier transform infrared (ft-ir...

The potential of water hyacinth ash for phenol adsorption from aqueous solution was studied. Batch kinetic and isotherm studies were carried out under varying experimental conditions of contact time, phenol concentration, adsorbent dosage and pH. The adsorption of phenol decreased with increasing pH. The Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption models were used for the mathematical description of ads...

Kinetics of phosphate adsorption by Ca/Cr layered double hydroxide (LDH) in a batch reactor was investigated this study. The kinetic experiments indicated that the sorption from synthetic feed solution synthesised LDH very fast, with over 98% removal being achieved within 5 min contact. Kinetic modeling process to different models (pseudo first order, pseudo second Elovich and intraparticle dif...
