Production of activated carbon derived from waste hemp (Cannabis sativa) fibers and its performance in pesticide adsorption
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
The main objective of this work was to find optimal production parameters for the preparation of activated hemp fibers (ACh) with good adsorption properties toward pesticides. In order to examine the role of manufacturing ...
Characterization of sepiolite by inverse gas chromatography at infinite and finite surface coverage
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2009)
The adsorption properties of sepiolite from Andrici, Serbia, were studied by inverse gas chromatography at zero and finite surface coverage between 483 and 513 K. The thermodynamic parameters (free energy, enthalpy, entropy) ...
Fenitrothion adsorption - desorption on organo - minerals
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2011)
The adsorption-desorption of the pesticide fenitrothion on organo-montmorillonite, organo-clinoptilolite and organo-sepiolite was studied at different loadings of stearyl- dimethylbenzylammonium cations (SDBA). The SDBA ...
Fast evaluation of periodic operation of a heterogeneous reactor based on nonlinear frequency response analysis
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
The concept of higher-order frequency response functions (FRFs), which is based on Volterra series representation of nonlineral systems, is used to analyse the time-average performance of a perfectly mixed reactor subject ...
Adsorption of chromium (VI) from aqueous solutions onto amine-functionalized natural and acid-activated sepiolites
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2013)
Chromium(VI) adsorption onto amine-functionalized sepiolites from aqueous solution at 298 K was investigated. Natural and add-activated sepiolites were functionalized by covalent grafting [3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyl] ...
Mechanism of adsorption of Cu2+ and Zn2+ on the corn silk (Zea mays L.)
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2017)
In this study the novel biosorbent - raw corn silk (CS) was investigated for Cu2+ and Zn2+ removal from aqueous solutions. The physical and chemical properties of CS were determined by SEM - EDX and ATR - FTIR techniques. ...
Utilization of agro-industrial waste for removal of copper ions from aqueous solutions and mining-wastewater
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2019)
In this study, unmodified lemon peel, as agro-industrial waste, was used to investigate removal efficiency of copper ions from aqueous solutions and mining wastewater. The effects of solution pH, adsorption time, metal ion ...
Rapid cationic dye adsorption on polyphenol-extracted coffee grounds-A response surface methodology approach
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
The Box-Behnken design under the response surface methodology (RSM) with five interacting parameters (adsorbent dose, initial dye concentration, time of agitation, initial solution pH and time of the adsorbent microwave ...
Estimation of competitive adsorption isotherms based on nonlinear frequency response experiments using equimolar mixtures-numerical analysis for racemic mixtures
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The nonlinear frequency response method for estimation of competitive adsorption isotherms, based on analysis of the response of a chromatographic column to sinusoidal perturbation of the inlet concentration, was modified ...
Further insight into the mechanism of heavy metals partitioning in stormwater runoff
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2016)
Various particles and materials, including pollutants, deposited on urban surfaces are washed off by stormwater runoff during rain events. The interactions between the solid and dissolved compounds in stormwater runoff are ...
