heavy metals such as cu(ii) and pb(ii) are among the hazardous pollutants that lead to severe ecological problems and have a toxic effect on living organisms. the removal of cu(ii) and pb(ii) by iranian bentonite experiment were conducted in single component and multi component systems. the bentonite from the birjand area was characterized by x-ray diffraction pattern and ftir spectroscopy. the...

The chemically crosslinked metal-complexed chitosans were synthesized by using the ion-imprinting method from a chitosan with four metals (Cu(II), Zn(II), Ni(II) and Pb(II)) as templates and glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker. The influences of adsorption conditions, including molar ratios of crosslinker/chitosan and pH changes, were studied. They were used to investigate for comparative adsorptio...

We have studied the interaction of indomethacin and diclofenac solutions, on multi-walled carbon nanotube. After investigated comparative study and assigned to either indomethacin or diclofenac adsorption isotherms. The adsorption equilibrium isotherms were fitted by Freundlich, Langmuir, and Temkin models. It was found that the Freundlich model described the adsorption process better than othe...

We have studied the interaction of Acetaminophen and Diclofenac solutions, on multi ncarbon nanotube. After investigated comparative study and assigned to either Acetaminophen or Diclofenac adsorption isotherms. The adsorption equilibrium isotherms were fitted by Freundlich, Langmuir, and Temkin models. It was found that the Temkin model described the adsorption process better than other two is...

Activated carbon prepared form coconut residues (CORC), and agricultural waste byproduct obtained after oil extraction was used for the adsorption of Ni(II) form aqueous solution. The process of uptake obeys both Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms. Kinetic studies indicate that it obeys Lagergram kinetic model. Quantitative removal of Ni(II) from 100mL aqueous solution containing 10mg...

This article describes the use of a power plant waste-Bottom Ash, as effective adsorbent for the removal of toxic Azo dyes Carmoisine and Chrysoidine Y from their aqueous solution. The paper incorporates comparative study and discussion of the adsorption characteristics of these dyes on the economically effective adsorbent with special emphasis on the effects of time and temperature. The charac...

Using semiempirical PM3 method, a comparative quantum chemical estimation has been carried out of the energy of articaine adsorption on the surfaces of the following composite materials: silica-anaesthetic, polymer-anaesthetic, and silica-polymer-anaesthetic. It has been found that adsorption on silica surface takes place due to electrostatic and nonspecific interactions. The data of quantum ch...

In the present study, comparative batch adsorption of basic dye namely Crystal Violet (CV) using the almond shell as an adsorbent in untreated form and activated with sodium hydroxide was carried out in search of optimum adsorption conditions. The operation parameters investigated was contact time (10 to 80 min), initial dye concentrations (40-240 mg/L), temperature, (20-5...

Activated carbons are universal adsorbents that can be obtained from a wide variety of raw materials, and have been found to be very effective for mercury removal from water. This contribution presents a comparative adsorption in column study of activated carbons obtained by physical activation of carbonized eucalyptus wood with water vapour, as adsorbents of mercury in liquid phase. Two sampl...
