Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleKinetics and Adsorption Isotherm of Ibuprofen onto Grafted β-CD/Chitosan PolymerHashem Bany-Aiesh, Raid Banat, Khaldoun Al-Sou’odThe adsorption of the Ibuprofen (Ibu) drug on β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) grafted chitosan polymer was studied under different experimental conditions. The effect of Ibu concentration, mass of β-CD grafted chitosan polymer as adsorbent, contact time, temperature and pH were investigated. Three equilibrium models, Langmuier, Freundlich and Temkin isotherm models were analyzed to evaluate the adsorption isotherms. The adsorption isotherms were best … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 12 · 20 Nov 2015 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleApplication of ZnO Nano Rods for the Batch Adsorption of Cr(VI): A Study of Kinetics and IsothermsSushma Kamath, Venu Gopal Vishwakarma Ramanjaneyalu, Susmita KamilaThe present study reports the synthesis of nano Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and its adsorption behaviour. The ZnO obtained by precipitation method were found to be well-defined nano rods arranged like flower. The shape, size and structure of ZnO were characterized from X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. These nano rods were utilized for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 12 Apr 2019 · 8,072 accessesView PDFCite
