Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication 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 · 8,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEquilibrium Studies and Optimization of Phosphate Adsorption from Synthetic Effluent Using Acid Modified Bio-SorbentBabayemi Akinpelu Kamoru, Onukwuli Okechukwu DominicAdsorption potential of periwinkle shell (PRW), an agricultural waste, for the removal of phosphate from aqueous solution was investigated through equilibrium studies at various experimental conditions. PRW was carbonized and chemically activated with 1MH2SO4 before it was subjected to characterization using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Adsorption data were analyzed using various … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2017 · 7,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesorption of Exchangeable Cations at Adsorption of Lead Ions by Chernozem in the Presence of Attendant AnionsT. M. Minkina, D. L. Pinskii, S. S. Mandzhieva et al.The effect of Cl–, Ac‾ and NO3‾ anions on the adsorption of Pb cations by an ordinary chernozem and desorption of exchangeable cations in the soil-solution system has been assessed under model laboratory conditions. It has been shown that the attendant anions affect the shape of the adsorption isotherms, which are described by the Langmuir equation. The greatest influence on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 20 Oct 2015 · 6,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Pb(II) on Spent Leaves of Green and Black TeaAntonio Zuorro, Roberto LavecchiaProblem statement: In recent years much attention has been focused on the use of biomass residues as low-cost adsorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions from contaminated waters. Spent tea leaves, an abundantly available material that is currently disposed of as a solid waste, are potentially suitable for such applications. Approach: To provide some information on the adsorption properties … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 9,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution onto a Low-Cost Natural Jordanian TripoliAtef S. ALzaydienProblem statement: It is well documented that lead is one of contaminants of industrial wastewaters and its pollution exists in the wastewater of many industries. As a result, recent research has focused on the development of cost effective alternatives using various natural sources and industrial wastes. In this setting, the use of low-cost agricultural materials, waste and residues for recovering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,949 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEquilibrium Adsorption of Hydrogen and Methane on 5A Molecular SieveHayder A. Abdul Bari, Abdul Halim A.K. Mohammed, Abbas K.M. Shua'ab, Rosli Bin Mohd. YunusAdsorption equilibrium isotherms of hydrogen and methane are reported for the temperature range 303-333 K and pressure up to 4 MPa. The adsorbent was 5A molecular sieve (supplied by Rhone Poulenc industries Ltd.). Experimental data were obtained using a static system for gas-solid adsorption.
