Adsorption Of Cu(Ii) On Three Adsorbents, Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$/Ni/Ni$_{X}$B Nanocomposite, Carob (\Textit{Ceratonia Siliqua}), And Grape Seeds: A Comparative Study, Tüli̇n Deni̇z Çi̇ftçi̇ Jan 2017

Adsorption Of Cu(Ii) On Three Adsorbents, Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$/Ni/Ni$_{X}$B Nanocomposite, Carob (\Textit{Ceratonia Siliqua}), And Grape Seeds: A Comparative Study, Tüli̇n Deni̇z Çi̇ftçi̇

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A novel adsorbent Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$/Ni/Ni$_{x}$B nanocomposite was synthesized and used for the adsorption of copper. Moreover, natural adsorbents carob and grape seeds were used for this purpose. The surfaces and the elemental compositions of the adsorbents were characterized by SEM-EDX. The zero point charges of pH of Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$/Ni/Ni$_{x}$B nanocomposite, carob, and grape seeds were found as 8.4, 6.0, and 5.6, respectively. The Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin--Radushkevich isotherm models were used for the identification of the mechanism of the adsorption. The adsorptions of Cu(II) on the three adsorbents were well fitted to the Langmuir isotherm. The maximum adsorption capacities obtained from the …


Adsorption Of Copper Ions And Alizarin Red S From Aqueous Solutions Onto A Polymeric Nanocomposite In Single And Binary Systems, Omnia Ali, Sahar Mohamed Jan 2017

Adsorption Of Copper Ions And Alizarin Red S From Aqueous Solutions Onto A Polymeric Nanocomposite In Single And Binary Systems, Omnia Ali, Sahar Mohamed

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Adsorption of Cu(II) ions and alizarin red S (ARS) has been studied using beads of chitosan (CS) and a chitosan/ZnO nanorod composite (CS-ZnO) in single and binary systems. The beads were synthesized and characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. Factors affecting adsorption of Cu(II) ions and ARS such as pH and initial concentrations as well as adsorption kinetics, isotherms, thermodynamics, reusability, and competitive adsorption in binary systems were studied. The results showed that the adsorption kinetics and isotherm data for both adsorbates followed a pseudo-second-order model …


Adsorption Isotherm Modeling Of Carbendazim And Flumetsulam Onto Homoionic-Montmorillonite Clays: Comparison Of Linear And Nonlinear Models, Yassine El Maataoui̇, Mohamadine El M'Rabet, Abdelkrim Maaroufi, Hassan Oudda, Abdelmalek Dahchour Jan 2017

Adsorption Isotherm Modeling Of Carbendazim And Flumetsulam Onto Homoionic-Montmorillonite Clays: Comparison Of Linear And Nonlinear Models, Yassine El Maataoui̇, Mohamadine El M'Rabet, Abdelkrim Maaroufi, Hassan Oudda, Abdelmalek Dahchour

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

This study deals with the adsorption of two pesticides, carbendazim and flumetsulam, from aqueous solutions onto four homoionic-montmorillonite clays (Ag$^{+}$, Zn$^{2+}$, Cu$^{2+}$, and H$^{+})$. Equilibrium adsorption isotherm data were analyzed using Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich, and Temkin isotherms. Linear and nonlinear fitting methods were compared to determine the best-fitting isotherms for the experimental data. Three error analysis methods were used to evaluate the data for each method: the coefficient of determination (R$^{2})$, sum of squared errors (SSE), and chi-square test ($\chi^{2})$. Equilibrium adsorption isotherms exhibited that the carbendazim adsorption mainly involved cation exchange with homoionic-montmorillonite adsorbents. However, for flumetsulam, the main mechanisms …

The objective of the current effort was to determine the efficacy of Fe(II)-montmorillonite (Fe(II)-MMT) as an adjuvant for specific targeted adsorption of phosphate. Specifically, Fe(II)-MMT was studied to combat hyperphosphatemia and anemia arising from chronic renal failure. The adsorption of phosphate over time, pH, and initial concentration was studied. The systems were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, and zeta potential. The experimental results demonstrated the adsorption time was set to 140 min to achieve maximum adsorption efficiency. It was thus found that the maximum adsorption was at pH 3.0. In addition, it reached equilibrium when the initial phosphate concentration …
