Abstract:
The effect of increasing pH, through incubation with Ca(OH)2 and NaOH, on the adsorption of phosphate (P) and potassium (K) was examined in batch and in column experiments. In column experiments, an increase in pH from 5.2 to 8.2 decreased the adsorption of P and increased that of K which resulted in an increased leaching of P and a decreased leaching of K. In a batch experiment, however, an increase in pH resulting from incubation with NaOH gave similar results to those of the column experiment, whereas an increase in pH due to Ca(OH)2 addition caused the opposite effect on the adsorption of both P and K. The difference between the batch and the column experiments in the effect of incubating soil with Ca(OH)2 on the adsorption of P and K is related to the concentration of Ca in the soil solution.

Abstract:
AbstractCompetitive adsorption of zinc and copper on activated carbon is studied in this article. Main aim was to suggest an advanced model for competitive adsorption of both metals considering pH influence and precipitation. A surface-complexation approach was employed for the modeling. Two models were considered: simple adsorption and ion exchange. System “The Geochemists Workbench” was used for calculation of both static and dynamic adsorption tasks. From the batch experiments, concentration of four types of sorbing sites on the carbon surface and its protonation and sorption constants were deduced. Then, batch competitive adsorption experiments were compared with the models’ results. Finally, a column experiment (fixed bed adsorption) was carried out. It was observed that the model of ion exchange can satisfyingly predict both chromatographic effect and increase of zinc concentration in effluent over its initial value, although a quantitative agreement between the model and the experiment was not totally precise.

Abstract:
Adsorption using granular activated carbon (GAC) in a permeable reactive barrier (PRB) has been proven in inhibiting the further spread of contaminant plumes in groundwater. GAC synthesized from oil palm shell was chosen for groundwater remediation in this study due to the low operation cost using the adsorption process. In this study, GAC synthesized from oil palm shells were used as adsorbent to adsorb atrazine from water. This study involved a series of batch experiment to determine the adsorption equilibrium and kinetics of adsorbent. The batch experiment was conducted by shaking conical flasks containing 0.6 g GAC in 300 mL solution with initial atrazine concentrations of 5, 10, 20 and 30 mg/L at 180 rpm at 30 ± 2 °C. The GAC showed more than 95 % of atrazine removal in all the batch experiments. The adsorption kinetic study showed that the adsorption of atrazine is of physisorption as the experimental data is fitted better to the pseudo-first-order model than the pseudo- second-ordermodel.Intheadsorptionisothermstudy,theadsorptionofatrazineontoGACwasbetterdescribedbytheFreundlich model which indicated multilayer adsorption on the heterogeneous surface of the adsorbent.

Abstract:
Adsorption kinetics render measurements of substrate utilization rates in biofilms attached to adsorbing materials difficult. A fed-batch technique which maintains a constant concentration of substrate in the presence of biomass attached to granular activated carbon (GAC) was developed to measure biological kinetics independent of adsorption kinetics. The fed-batch technique used pre-adsorbed substrate on GAC as a source of substrate. During the experiment, the mass of substrate that is biodegraded is negligible when compared to the large mass of adsorbed substrate. Near equilibrium adsorption phenomena maintains the concentration of substrate constant throughout the experiment and eliminates mass transport resistance within the biofilms. Substrate utilization rates were measured at a specific substrate concentration by monitoring methane gas production rates. Samples of GAC with attached biomass were removed from two expanded-bed anaerobic reactors. GAC samples from a 3-ethylphenol (3-ep) fed reactor were used in batch experiments with 3-ep as the substrate and GAC samples from an orthochlorophenol (OCP) fed reactor were used in batch experiments with OCP as the substrate. Data were observed to fit Haldane kinetics and predictions from the Haldane kinetic parameters were in agreement with transient behavior from the 3-ep fed reactor. This technique was useful in predicting threshold inhibitory levels for continuous treatment of inhibitory wastewaters in expanded-bed GAC reactors. The fed-batch technique light also be applied to measure substrate utilization rates of biomass attached to other adsorbable materials such as soils.

Abstract:
Rubber wood sawdust was carbonized into charcoal by chemical treatment which was used for removal of lead ion from aqueous solution. The work involves batch experiments to investigate the pH effect, initial concentration of adsorbate, contact time, and adsorbent dose. Experimental data confirmed that the adsorption capacities increased with increasing inlet concentration and bed height and decreased with increasing flow rate. Adsorption results showed a maximum adsorption capacity of 37 mg/g at 308 K. Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin model adsorption isotherm models were applied to analyze the process where Temkin was found as a best fitted model for present study. Simultaneously kinetics of adsorption like pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion models were investigated. Thermodynamic parameters were used to analyze the adsorption experiment. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the batch adsorption of lead ion onto chemically carbonized rubber wood sawdust.

Abstract:
- In this study, sodium alginate based porous membrane adsorbents (GA/SA) were prepared by using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as porogen and glutaraldehyde (GA) as cross-linking agent. The prepared GA/SA were used to remove Cr (III) ions from wastewater to test its adsorption performance. The proposed technique is very convenient for operation. The batch experiments were performed to investigate the adsorption kinetics of Cr (III) ions from aqueous solution under different conditions, such as the amount of PEG in the GA/SA, pH of solution, initial Cr (III) ions concentration, adsorbent dose and contact time. The GA/SA exhibited the maximum uptake capacity of 57.4 mg/g under the optimal condition. The experiment results show that the adsorption is high pH-dependent. Various kinetic models were applied to examine the mechanism of adsorption processes. Pseudo-second-order kinetic model exhibits the best correlation with experimental data. The kinetic experiment results show that the adsorption of Cr (III) ions is a multistep limited adsorption process. Out of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations, the batch equilibrium data are better described by the Freundlich isotherm equation. The prepared GA/SA could be considered as a potential low-cost and high-effective bio-sorbent for removing and recovering Cr (III) ions from the aqueous solutions.

Abstract:
A quaternized cotton linter fiber (QCLF) based adsorbent for removal of phosphate was prepared by grafting glycidyl methacrylate onto cotton linter and subsequent ring-opening reaction of epoxy groups and further quaternization. The adsorption behavior of the QCLF for phosphate was evaluated in a batch and column experiment. The batch experiment demonstrated that the adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics with an R2 value of 0.9967, and the Langmuir model with R2 value of 0.9952. The theoretical maximum adsorption capacity reached 152.44 mg/g. The experimental data of the fixed-bed column were well fitted with the Thomas and Yoon–Nelson models, and the adsorption capacity of phosphate at 100 mg/L and flow rate 1 mL/min reached 141.58 mg/g. The saturated QCLF could be regenerated by eluting with 1 M HCl.

Abstract:
Abstract Adsorption thermodynamics and kinetics of Azure C and from the aqueous solution on activated charcoal was examined. The charcoal was activated by concentrated sulphuric acid and the adsorption kinetic and thermodynamic was tested in batch experiment. An experiments used the adsorption batch method to observe the effect of the variable parameters, i.e. concentration of dye, time of contact, pH, temperature and adsorbent dose. The ideal dosage of adsorbent was 0.3 g for Azure C. The equilibrium state was reached within 60 min for dye Azure C at activated charcoal. The isotherms of equilibrium were investigated to characterize the adsorption operation. The data for the kinetics study were adjusted utilizing the equation of pseudo- second-order and the model of diffusion (intra-particle). All data were evaluated by means of equilibrium Freundlich, Langmuir and Temkin isotherm on activated charcoal surface. Based on the adsorption isotherm evaluation on activated charcoal the result was 4S by using Giles classification. The thermodynamic factors like ΔH, ΔG and ΔS were estimated.

Abstract:
Abstract A biochar material made from corncobs was tested for its capability in BTEX adsorption/interception in stormwater filtration systems. Batch experiments were conducted to examine the adsorption kinetics, adsorption isotherms, and adsorption thermodynamics of BTEX onto this biochar. The feasibility of applying this biochar in stormwater filtration was studied by dynamic transport experiments and model simulations. The result showed that this biochar can adsorb BTEX and the adsorption is a thermodynamically spontaneous, and endothermic process. The BTEX adsorption kinetic experiment and adsorption retarded BTEX transport experiment indicated that the BTEX adsorption kinetics can be changed by the driving force between the BTEX concentrations and the active adsorption site as well as the contact time between BTEX and the biochar. In terms of applying this biochar in stormwater filtration, the Monte Carlo uncertainty analysis indicated that the BTEX interception is sensitive to the hydraulic conductivity of the biochar filter and the adsorption kinetics of the biochar material. Although this corncob-made biochar demonstrated effective pollutant adsorption capability, the biochar adsorption capability should be utilized to retain the pollutant long enough for biodegradation to take effect for ultimate pollutant attenuation.

Abstract:
The conventional method for designing a fixed bed adsorption unit has been discussed. The method is based on the data obtained from an adsorption column test. The characterization of an adsorption system, however, is performed in a laboratory batch experiment. It is shown that the conventional method does not make proper use of the physico-chemical parameters of an adsorption system determined by batch test. Also the method fails to predict the performance of an adsorption unit, if the operating condition differs from that under which the column test has been conducted for design purposes. New design equation has been proposed for both ‘Constantly Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR)’ and ‘Plug Flow Reactor (PFR)’ type adsorption units. The equation predicts the performance of a reactor type adsorption unit under varying operating conditions. The proposed method is based only on the data obtained in batch experiment.Keywords: Adsorption; Unit design; Reactor; Optimal Operation, Dosage; Coefficient of utilization.© 2009 JSR Publications.

Abstract:
This study offers the opportunity to utilize Undaria pinnatifida and Phragmites australis to remove lead from water in permeable reactive barrier (PRB) technology. Its efficacy was tested using batch experiments and PRB column systems. From the batch experiment results, a higher adsorption capacity was observed for Undaria pinnatifida. Nevertheless, Phragmites australis in the column system efficiently removed lead and the breakthrough occurred at the same time for both biomaterials. To dissipate this difference, a sequential extraction for metal speciation analysis was used for both columns. The results have shown that each biomaterial has a dominant mechanism. Phragmites australis removed lead by physical adsorption, whereas Undaria pinnatifida showed a higher tendency to bind lead due to organic matter, primary and secondary minerals.

Twelve carbonaceous materials were investigated for adsorption of Cd, Cu and Ag from water solutions. Before the adsorption experiments the chemical and structural characterization of all materials were made. The batch adsorption experiment was used. The kinetic of the adsorption process was very fast for the first five hours but very slow for approximately the next 65 hours. Nevertheless the maximum amount of metal removed was achieved during the first stage of about five hours. Biological materials (milled wood, bark, cork) exhibited a very low affinity for adsorption of metals. The best results were obtained for materials in an intermediate degree of carbonisation with a high content of oxygen rich functional groups. Although the highly carbonised materials exhibited low ability to adsorb copper or cadmium, their capacity to bind silver was very high.

Abstract:
Phosphorous from municipal and industrial wastewater is the main cause of eutrophication of rivers and lakes, because effluent quality from conventional secondary wastewater treatment plants does not meet the discharge standard that demands further treatment. Therefore, we investigated pumice as a potential low-cost adsorbent for the tertiary treatment of phosphate from municipal wastewater. The phosphate adsorption process reached equilibrium after 60 minutes contact time and achieved a removal efficiency of 94.4% ± 0.7% for an adsorbent dose of 10 g/L in 3 mg/L phosphate solution. The highest phosphate removal was recorded at pH 7. The experimental data best fitted with the Redlich-Peterson isotherm and the pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The coexisting anions decreased phosphate adsorption in the order of mixture >SO42– > HCO3− > NO3− > Cl− > CO3−. Pumice removed 95% ± 0.2% of phosphate from effluents of the secondary treatment unit of a municipal wastewater treatment plant. Furthermore, effective regeneration of saturated pumice was possible with a 0.2 M NaOH solution. Therefore, pumice could be a technically workable low-cost reusable adsorbent for phosphate removal from wastewater as a tertiary treatment to curb eutrophication of surface waters. However, further column adsorption study is recommended for a continuous flow system to optimize process design variables and scale up for field applications.

HighlightsBatch experiment indicated that sorption of Cd on biochar was highly pH-dependant.The main mechanism of Cd-biochar sorption were surface precipitation and ion exchange.Biochar affected the transportation of the attached Cd.At the same ionic strength, the transportation is faster in the presence of Ca2+ than Na+.Abstract. Cadmium (Cd) is toxic to plants and animals, leaching of Cd through soil profiles can affect its accumulation and pollute the ground-water. In this study, we performed batch and column experiments to study the effect of biochar on the retention and transport of Cd in saturated porous media under different solution chemistry. Specific factors were considered including pH, ionic strength, and biochar dosages. The results of batch experiment indicated that sorption of Cd on biochar was highly pH-dependant, but ionic strength had negligible effect on the adsorption of Cd to biochar. The mechanism of the adsorption process of biochar for Cd mainly involves surface precipitation and ion exchange. In the column experiment, the increase in pH and biochar dosages made the Cd more stable, whereas the increase in ionic strength improved the migration of Cd. The increased retention time of Cd was related to the greater retarded coefficient value (R) based on two-site kinetic retention model. The decrease of partitioning coefficient (ß) and fraction of instantaneous sorption sites (f) were in favor of the continuous and dynamic adsorption under column conditions. This study will provide a theoretical and scientific basis for the rational assessment of cadmium-related risks in biochar-modified environments.

The objective of this work was to investigate the characteristics of polyaniline-chitosan membrane by SEM, FTIR, tensile strength and percentage elongation and to determine the adsorption behavior of reactive dyes (Yellow 145, Red 195, Blue 222) onto the polyaniline-chitosan membrane. The removal of reactive dyes was investigated in a batch experiment. Parameters influencing the adsorption including pH (2-10), contact time (0-150 min), equilibrium study (30 min to 16 h) and initial concentration (10, 25, 50, 100, 250 and 500 mg×L-1) were studied at room temperature. The dye concentrations were determined by a UV/VIS Spectrophotometer at the wavelengths 423, 540 and 620 nm for Yellow 145, Red 195 and Blue 222, respectively. The results indicated that the tensile strength and percentage elongation of polyaniline-chitosan membrane were 0.032 kN/mm2 and 15.53%, respectively. It was found that optimum pH for adsorption of all dyes on polyaniline-chitosan membrane was pH 2. When the adsorption time increased, the adsorption efficiency increased accordingly. The adsorption equilibrium was found to be reached at 3 h in all adsorptions. Moreover, the isotherm study showed that the polyaniline-chitosan membrane adsorption corresponded to Freundlich model. Moreover, it was also found that polyaniline-chitosan membrane exhibits higher adsorption efficiency for reactive dyes than chitosan.

The amount of brilliant red adsorbed on fish scale surface decreased with increasing pH and temperature of the solution. The negative value of differential heat of adsorption suggests that the adsorption process is exothermic. Langmuir adsorption isotherm was found to fit the experimental data better than that of the Freundlich adsorption isotherm. Dhaka Univ. J.

Abstract:
Thiabendazole, 2-(4'-thiazolyl) Benzimidazole fungicide is rampantly used in Pakistan for controlling fungalgrowth in addition to combating various fungus driven diseases. Thiabendazole leaching and mobility patterns can beeasily predicted through investigation of Thiabendazole adsorption and desorption behavior in soils. Present work iscarried out by conducting a batch equilibration experiment for evaluation of Thiabendazole adsorption and desorption insoils from four diverse Pakistani climatological regions. Data revealed Thiabendazole had moderate to weak adsorption inselected soils with distribution co-efficient Kd(ads) ranging from 13.33 to 24.04 µg/ml in selected soils. The TBZ adsorptionin soils best fitted with Freundlich model (R2>0.87). The Freundlich adsorption coefficient (Kf(ads)) values ranged from4.51 to 8.90 µg/ml. Thiabendazole adsorption trends in the selected soils were positively influenced by the clay contentand soil organic matter while it was negatively influenced by soils’ pH. The Freundlich desorption coefficient (Kf(des))values spanned over a range of 1.03 to 6.43 µg/ml indicating decreased desorption from soils with creditable affinities forThiabendazole adsorption. The adsorptive interactions between Thiabendazole and selected soils were primarily physicalconfirmed through lower values of Gibbs free energy ∆G ≤ - 40kJ/mol. Thiabendazole desorption was highly hysterical inall soils with profound irreversibility. Thiabendazole possessed medium mobility patterns in selected soils. The loweradsorptive capability of Thiabendazole in selected soils points towards its lower application rates for combating long termenvironmentally perilous implications.

Abstract:
In some countries, non-point source pollution derived from a city's economic activities tends to be a barrier to the improvement of water quality. Roadway runoff is known to contain toxic micro-pollutants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Conversely, red soil is known to adsorb some organic matter. In this study, artificial roadway runoff water containing toxic micro-pollutants was made using roadway dust collected from a highway, and used for both batch-type tests and soil column tests with red soil in order to understand adsorption ability of the red soil on such toxic micro-pollutants, especially PAHs. In the batch-type tests, PAHs could be removed by approximately 40% when the contact time was 90 minutes. In the soil column tests, PAHs were removed by more than 80% while suspended solids were removed by more than 90%. Notably, PAHs with a high molecular weight were removed more readily in the tests than PAHs with a low molecular weight.

Abstract:
The batch and fixed-bed column adsorption of methylene blue (MB), a widely used toxic dye, onto graphene oxide (GO) was investigated in this study. GO was synthesized using modified Hummers method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize batch and fixed-bed column adsorption of MB. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out by central composite design (CCD) with three input parameters including initial MB concentration (C0: 50-350 mg/L), GO dosage (D: 0.05-0.7 g/L), and pH (pH: 3-9). The adsorption capacity of GO for MB removal in the optimum level of factors (C0: 50 mg/L, D: 0.05 g/L, and pH: 8.5) was predicted by the model to be 700 mg/g. Adsorption kinetic data were tested using pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order, and intraparticle diffusion models. The kinetic experimental data was well fitted with pseudo-second order kinetic model (R2=1). The adsorption of MB onto GO demonstrated that Langmuir model (R2=0.999) could better fit the adsorption data than the Freundlich model (R2=0.914). Thermodynamic parameters including enthalpy (ΔH), Gibbs free energy (ΔG), and entropy (ΔS) were also investigated. Positive value of ΔH and negative value of ΔG indicated the endothermic and spontaneous nature of the adsorption. The positive value of ΔS also showed increased randomness at the solid/liquid interface during the adsorption of MB onto GO. The real wastewater experiment at optimum conditions showed high performance of adsorbent in the presence of other ions. Fixed-bed column experiments were designed using a three-factor, three-level Box-Behnken design (BBD) to investigate the single and combined effects of influent concentration (Cinf: 50-200 mg/L), flow rate (Q: 0.25-0.8 mL/min), and bed height (BH: 3-7 cm). MB removal from GO in the optimum levels of factors (Cinf: 51 mg/L, BH: 5.7 cm, and Q: 0.25 mL/min) was predicted by the model to be 86% (qe=459.3 mg/g). Fixed-bed experimental data were also fitted well to the Thomas and BDST models. The results showed that GO can be used as an efficient adsorbent for batch and fixed-bed adsorption of cationic dyes from synthetic and real wastewater.

Abstract:
AbstractPakistan occupies a significant global position in the growing of high quality cotton. The extensive application of pesticides on agricultural products leads to environmental risk due to toxic residues in air, water and soil. This study examined the chemodynamic effect of Deltamethrin on cotton fields. Samples were collected from the cotton fields of D.G. Khan, Pakistan and analyzed for heavy metal speciation patterns. Batch experiments were administered in order to study the adsorption of Deltamethrin in cotton fields. The effect of different factors including pH, adsorbate dose, and adsorbent mass on adsorption were studied. It was observed that in general, adsorption increased with increases in the mass of adsorbate, although the trends were irregular. Residual fractions of deltamethrin in the soil and water of cotton fields were analyzed to assess concentrations of xenobiotics bound to soil particles. Results indicated that such residues are significantly higher in soil samples due to high Koc in comparison to water, indicating the former is an efficient degradation agent. Results from the batch experiment resulted in 95% removal with alkaline pH and an adsorbent-adsorbate ratio of 250:1. These results may be used to environment friendly resource management policies.

Abstract:
A series of phenolic compounds containing 2-phenylphenol (PPE), bisphenol A (BPA), 4-isopropylphenol (IPE), 4-methylphenol (ME) and phenol (PE) were selected to investigate their major influence factors for their adsorption on graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) by studying their adsorption isotherms and kinetics. It was found that the adsorption of all tested phenols fitted well with the Freundlich model. In comparison, the adsorption ability of RGO with a stronger π-π interaction was superior to GO, which was confirmed by using naphthalene probe measurements. The thermodynamic characteristics, by studying the effect of the adsorption temperatures (298, 313 and 333 K), demonstrated that the adsorption process was spontaneous, exothermic and entropy-decreasing. The chemical structures of the phenols also affected their adsorption on GO and RGO. It was found that the adsorption capacities of phenols were, in order, PE (0.271 mmol g−1 on GO and 0.483 mmol g−1 on RGO) < ME (0.356 and 0.841 mmol g−1) < IPE (0.454 and 1.117 mmol g−1) < BPA (0.4 and 1.56 mmol g−1) < PPE (0.7 and 2.054 mmol g−1), which depended on the π-electron density of the benzene ring by means of a density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Undoubtedly, the reduction of GO and an increase in π-electron density on the chemical structures of phenols facilitated the adsorption.

Abstract:
Objectives : Heavy metal contamination and accumulation have a harmful effect on the health of humans and animals and are serious problems worldwide. Currently, various technologies have been used for the treatment of contaminated wastewater, of which adsorption is the most commonly known and economically feasible technology. Many researchers are making attempts to find an effective and easily available adsorbent in terms of cost. In this study, starfish (<i>Asterina pectinifera</i>, SF) derived biochar was prepared and its characteristics were evaluated through various device analyses. After the biochar evaluation, the adsorption capacity was evaluated by conducting batch experiments.Methods : Biochar (Pyrolyzed Starfish at 500℃, PSF500) was produced by pyrolysis at 500℃ for 2 h in anaerobic conditions. Moreover, the characteristics of the surface were evaluated through SEM, TGA, XRD, elemental analysis and FT-IR analysis. In addition, batch experiments using heavy metal contaminated wastewater were conducted.Result and Discussion : In PSF500, CaCO3, Ca(OH)2 and CaCO3 were identified as the main phases by XRD analyses and various functional groups and pores that affect adsorption were observed on the surface of the sample. The batch experiment confirmed that the maximum adsorption was 153.8, 270.3, 434.8, and 147.1 mg/g for Cu, Zn, Pb and Cd, respectively. Also, it was confirmed that all heavy metals fit the similar Pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir model, which are the most suitable models for analyses of inorganic pollutants. After the sorption experiment, XRD and SEM analyses were conducted using the residue of PSF500, and in each sample CuO, Zn5(CO3)2(OH)6, Pb3(OH)2(CO3)2, Cd(OH)2 and CdCO3 were confirmed to be deposited on the surface of the sample.Conclusions : It was confirmed that PSF500 follows the complex mechanism of adsorption and precipitation with respect to heavy metals. Based on the experimental results, PSF500 could be used as an eco-friendly sorbent with CaCO3 as its main ingredient.

Abstract:
Using low-cost and naturally available materials is considered an optimal adsorbent for removing phosphorus (P) from water due to its simplicity and economic efficiency. This study examined the removal of P from water using volcanic ash soil (VAS) by batch and column experiments. The maximum adsorption capacity of P was 2.94 mg g−1, estimated from the batch experiment according to a Langmuir isotherm. The column study showed a higher adsorption capacity of 5.57 mg g−1. The breakthrough curve showed that influent water containing 2 mg L−1 P was completely purified by VAS within 1,230 pore volumes (PV). The breakthrough and saturation points of the curves were 3,100 PV and 14,875 PV, respectively. After an adsorption column was loaded with 20,508 PV, a regeneration procedure was developed to determine whether an ion exchange of P with chloride occurred or adsorbed P in the columns could be eluted. Approximately 20% of P was recovered from columns by desorption tests, regardless of NaCl solution or deionized water. Specific surface area and mineral concentrations are both important characteristics that improve the adsorption capacity of VAS. The present study suggests that VAS is a promising adsorbent to remove P in water.

Abstract:
The adsorption capacity of cadmium ions by pine sawdust biomass and biochar was evaluated in batch experiments. Pine sawdust biochars were pyrolyzed at 500 °C and 700 °C and obtained in the absence of oxygen. The adsorption capacity of biochar was higher than the raw biomass (3.47 mg/g). Biochars produced at 700 °C showed better adsorption efficiency (6.09 mg/g) than that produced at 500 °C (4.78 mg/g). Also, the adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherms were studied. The adsorption behavior of cadmium by pine sawdust biomass and biochar fitted Langmuir isotherms and pseudo-second order kinetics. In addition, the desorption experiment by different solutions (neutral, acidic, and alkaline) were conducted. The desorption of cadmium ions in neutral and alkaline environments was not obvious, while the desorption in an acidic environment was. Pine sawdust biochar, pyrolyzed at 700 °C, is a potential adsorbent for cadmium removal in neutral and alkaline environments.

Abstract:
AbstractA novel porous ceramsite was made of municipal sludge, coal fly ash, and river sediment by sintering process, and the performance of batch and fixed-bed column systems containing this material in the removal of acid red G (ARG) dye from aqueous solutions was assessed in this study. The results of orthogonal test showed that sintering temperature was the most important determinant in the preparation of porous ceramsite, and it possesses developed pore structure and high specific surface area. Batch experiment results indicated that the adsorption process of ARG dye toward porous ceramsite was a spontaneous exothermic reaction, which could be better described with Freundlich–Langmuir isotherm model (R2 > 0.992) and basically followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic equation (R2 > 0.993). Column experiment results showed that when the porous ceramsite was used as packing material, its adsorption capacity was roughly improved by 3.5 times compared with that in batch system, and the breakthrough behavior was simulated well with Yoon–Nelson model, with R2 > 0.954. This study suggested that the novelty man-made porous ceramsite obtained from solid wastes might be processed as a certain cost-effective treatment material fit for the dye removal in aqueous solutions.

A new type of adsorbent which prepared with waste paper as raw material was applied in the treatment of dye wastewater, and studied the processing conditions on treatment effect. Batch adsorption study carried out as a function of the dosage, the stirring time, the stirring speed and the pH. The adsorption rate of newspaper adsorbent to basic blue dye simulated wastewater and alkaline yellow wastewater with an initial concentration of 80mg·L-1 can reach 98.56% and 92.23% at 4g·L-1 of the dosage of paper adsorbent, 15min of the stirring time and 150r·min-1of the stirring speed. The maximum adsorption were 233.1g·L-1 and 289.4g·L-1 respectively.

Abstract:
Heavy metals such as Cu(II), if ubiquitous in the runoff, can have adverse effects on the environment and human health. Lime sand bricks, as low-cost adsorbents to be potentially applied in stormwater infiltration facilities, were systematically investigated for Cu(II) removal from water using batch and column experiments. In the batch experiment, the adsorption of Cu(II) to bricks reach an equilibrium within 7 h and the kinetic data fits well with the pseudo-second-order model. The sorption isotherm can be described by both the Freundlich and Langmuir model and the maximum adsorption capacity of the bricks is 7 ± 1 mg/g. In the column experiment, the best removal efficiency for Cu(II) was observed at a filler thickness of 20 cm, service time of 12 min with a Cu(II) concentration of 0.5 mg/L. The Cu(II) removal rate increases with the increasing bed depth and residence time. The inlet concentration and residence time had significant effects on the Cu(II) removal analyzed by the Box–Behnken design (BBD). The Adams-Bohart model was in good agreement with the experimental data in representing the breakthrough curve. Copper fractions in the bricks descend in the order of organic matter fraction > Fe-Mn oxides fraction > carbonates fraction > residual fraction > exchangeable fraction, indicating that the lime sand bricks after copper adsorption reduce the long-term ecotoxicity and bioavailability to the environment.

Abstract:
The aim of this work was to develop new low-cost adsorbents obtained from animal origins, available in large quantities and environmentally friendly. Raw shrimp shell (RSS), a biomaterial of animal origin, is abundant, available, renewable and non-toxic. It has physicochemical properties that can induce a significant adsorptive activity. In this study, the removal of phosphate anions (H2PO4-, HPO42-) from aqueous solution by adsorption onto raw shrimp shells was studied. The surface micro-morphology of the biomaterial was investigated using scanning electron microscope and qualitative element composition was analyzed using energy dispersive X-ray and infrared spectroscopies. The efficiency of the biomaterial was investigated using a batch adsorption technique under different experiment conditions, achieved by varying parameters such as adsorbent dosage, the contact time, the initial phosphate anion concentrations, the temperature and the initial solution pH. Results show that the kinetics adsorption of phosphate ions by the biomaterial is relatively quick and the biomaterial showed a high adsorption capacity of 0.20 g∙g-1 and 0.4 g∙g-1 for HPO42- and H2PO4-, respectively. The adsorption data were analyzed using the Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin adsorption isotherms to determine the nature of the adsorption sites. Both Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models showed good fits to the experimental adsorption data.

Abstract:
A new structure of hybrid nanorods adsorbent ([n-BBIM]9PW9O34) was synthesized by a simple molecular assembly of polyoxometalates with ionic liquids (ILs). The nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray and X-ray diffractometer. Adsorption of silver from acid mine drainage (AMD) was studied using batch experiments. The impact of several parameters, like ion concentration, pH, adsorbent dosage, and temperature was elucidated and optimization was carried out by single-factor experiment and response surface methodology. Analysis of variance of the quadratic model suggested that experimental data were excellently fitted to the quadratic model. Optimum conditions for removal of Ag+ from AMD were determined to be an initial concentration 143 mg/L, adsorbent dosage 2.69 g/L, temperature 35 °C to achieve the maximum adsorption of Ag+ 99.03%, which was very close to the predicted value (100%). The adsorption was confirmed as oxidation-reduction mechanism following a complexation process, and has been verified according to results from FT-IR and UV-vis spectra. The selective experiment suggested that the nanorods adsorbent could adsorb silver ions in AMD well. Based on the adsorption/desorption study result, the adsorbent can be efficiently recovered.

Full text
Abstract:
Submicron powdered activated carbon (PAC) rapidly adsorbed natural organic matter (NOM) fromwater samples: a batch test of the adsorption kinetics showed that the NOM concentration dropped substantially within 15 s and then leveled off. In a tubular flow reactor test, NOM removal after a 15 s contact time was almost the same as removal values attained at longer contact times. Laboratory-scale and bench-scale pilotplant ceramic microfiltration (MF) experiments with submicron PAC adsorption pretreatment were conducted to evaluate NOM removal and to examine the effect of the PAC on filterability. The laboratory scale MF experiment revealed that PAC adsorption pretreatment could be accomplished with a detention (2.4 s) that was much shorter than the time expected from the adsorption kinetics test. This result suggests that adsorption pretreatment for MF could be accomplished by adding the submicron PAC directly into the feed line to the membrane and that installation of a special PAC contactor before the membrane unit is unnecessary. Although micron PAC rather than submicron PAC was used unintentionally in the pilot plant experiment, these PAC showed much better NOM removal than normal PAC, and no adverse effects, such as transmembrane pressure buildup and reversible or irreversible membrane fouling, were observed.

Abstract:
Ammonia nitrogen (NH3 - N) is one of the common and toxic species of nitrogen and excess of it in waterway causes eutrophication, decreased in dissolved oxygen and toxic to aquatic organisms. This study aims to investigate the isotherm and kinetic modeling of adsorption of ammonia nitrogen from aqueous solution by using jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) seed. Batch equilibrium experiments were carried out at 60 minute of contact time with initial pH value of 7. The adsorption isotherm data fitted well with Langmuir model with correlation (R2) of 0.9809 and maximum monolayer adsorption capacitiy (Qe) of 3.94 mg/g. Meanwhile, the adsorption of NH3 - N follows pseudo second order with correlation (R2) values ranges from 0.62 to 0.96 for various concentrations. Besides, the adsorption capacity obtained from experiment also has the smallest difference with calculated adsorption capacity. This suggest that the adsorption is mainly governed by chemical process involving cations sharing or exchange between the adsorbent and NH3 - N in the solution. In conclusion, jackfruit seed can be used as adsorbent materials for ammonia nitrogen removal from aqueous solution.

Abstract:
Phosphorus (P) is one of the nutrients causing eutrophication in many of our waterways. In the present study, we investigated Sachtofer PR Ca-Fe oxide granules as a potential P sorption material (PSM) for constructed wetlands. We found the P sorption with various experiments as follows: the 24 h batch experiment with the highest initial concentration of 50 mgP L−1 yielded 0.48 mgP g−1 P removal per mass unit, the kinetic P removal batch experiment of 600 h duration yielded 1.25 mgP g−1, the maximum phosphorus adsorption capacity estimated from the Langmuir equation yielded 23.78 mgP g−1, and the long term flow-through experiment with drainage ditch water yielded indicative saturated sorption of 1.4 mgP g−1. Flow-through experiments revealed that phosphate removal was rapid and the efficiency was 10–70%, depending on the retention time and age of granules. Possible weaknesses of this material for sorption filter systems were found to include the loss of mass caused by the rapid dissolution of gypsum, increased sulfate and calcium concentrations in the water, and rapidly changing hydraulic conductivity. Considering hydraulic and chemical properties, further pilot experiments are necessary to develop technical solutions for optimal use of Ca-Fe oxide granules in sorption filter systems at constructed wetlands.

Abstract:
To assess the potential use of laterite-bentonite mixture as waste landfill liner, a range of batch tests were conducted to study the influence of contact time, solid to solution ratio, pH, ion strength, and temperature on Pb(II) adsorption. The experimental results showed that the uptake of Pb(II) by laterite-bentonite mixture increases with the increase of contact time and the adsorption equilibrium can be reached within 30 minutes. This process can be delineated well using a pseudo-second-order kinetics equation. Besides, with the increase of solid to solution ratio (s/w) and pH, Pb(II) will be adsorbed more by the laterite-bentonite mixture. However, the uptake of Pb(II) will decrease when ion strength rises in the solution and this is due to the competitive adsorption and cation exchange between different cations. When conducting the batch test at 298 K and 323 K, respectively, the experiment results showed significant growth when temperature increases because the adsorption process is an endothermic reaction. This influence of temperate can be described better by the Langmuir isotherm model than that by the Freundlich isotherm model. In each experiment condition, the uptake of Pb(II) increases with the increasing of bentonite content, indicating a good improvement in the effect of bentonite on laterite used as landfill liner.

Abstract:
The present experiment explains the effectiveness of adsorption studies of methylene blue dye from aqueous solutions on activated carbon from Selenicereus grandiflorus (SG) treated with conc. sulfuric acid. The sulphuric acid-treated Selenicereus grandiflorus activated carbon (SGAC) was used as low-cost adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solution. It suggests an ideal alternative method to adsorption of dye compared to other expensive treatment options. The adsorption studies have been conducted at different experimental parameters, i.e., pH, contact time, adsorbent dose and initial dye concentration. The batch mode experiments were conducted by different adsorbent dose (0.03-0.150 g per 50 mL), pH of the solution (2-12), effect of time (3-18 min), initial dye concentration (10 mg/L), point of zero charge and regeneration of spent adsorbent studies. Langmuir model shows better fit to the equilibrium data (R2 = 0.966) than Freundlich model. The adsorption capacity (Qm) of SGAC increases with increasing dosage where Qm is 16.17 mg g-1.

Abstract:
The aims of this study were to characterize carrot residues and to determine the removal of Cr(VI) in water depending on the temperature and the dosage of carrot residues. To identify the functional group present in carrot residue, Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) was used to characterize it. The functional group that responsible for the metal binding is hydroxyl (-OH) group. The adsorption of Cr(VI) was conducted by using batch experiment. The effect of temperature and dosage were studied in batch experiment, in which temperatures were varied from 25ºC to 55ºC and the dosages were varied from 0.5 mg/L to 2 mg/L. Preliminary study was done to determine the time equilibrium for adsorption. The equilibrium contact time was 30 min with 12.66% removal efficiency. Meanwhile, the highest dosage for removal efficiency of metal that used was 2 mg/L with 13.09%. The optimum temperature was 25ºC with 12.66% removal efficiency. This study has indicated that the carrot residues is less likely a good adsorbent for removal of Cr(VI).

Abstract:
Biomorphic nano-hydroxyapatite (HAP) was fabricated by a co-precipitation method using cotton as bio-templates and employed in adsorptive removal of ofloxacin (OFL) and triclosan (TCS) that are two representative pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs). The surface area and porosity, crystal phase, functional group, morphology and micro-structure of the synthesized HAP were characterized by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller isotherm, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron macroscopic and transmission electron microscopy. The effects of initial pH, ionic strength, initial concentration, contact time and temperature on the removal of PPCPs were studied in a batch experiment. The adsorption of OFL and TCS was rapid and almost accomplished within 50 min. Kinetic studies indicated that the adsorption process of OFL and TCS followed the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models, respectively. The Freundlich isotherm described the OFL adsorption process well but the adsorption of TCS fitted the Langmuir isotherm better. Thermodynamics and isotherm parameters suggested that both OFL and TCS adsorption were feasible and spontaneous. Hydrogen bond and Lewis acid–base reaction may be the dominating adsorption mechanism of OFL and TCS, respectively. Compared to other adsorbents, biomorphic HAP is environmentally friendly and has the advantages of high adsorption capacity, exhibiting potential application for PPCPs removal.

Abstract:
Competitive adsorption experiment of fluoride and phosphate on MgAl-CO3 LDHs has been conducted. A series of batch experiments were performed to study the influence of various experimental parameters such as pH, adsorbent dosage and contact time on the adsorption of fluoride and phosphate on MgAl-CO3 LDHs. Three kinetic models have been evaluated in order to attempt to fit the experimental data, namely the pseudo-first order, the pseudo-second order and the Weber and Morris intraparticle diffusion model. The effects of the initial concentration and the addition order of fluoride and phosphate on their adsorption by MgAl-CO3 LDHs were also investigated. The results show that the optimal pH is 4 to 5, adsorbent dosage is 2 g/L and it takes about 2 hours to attain equilibrium. It was found that the pseudo-second order most closely describes the kinetics. The initial concentration and the addition order of fluoride and phosphate influence the adsorption of fluoride to a certain extent, but they have relatively small influence to the adsorption of phosphate on MgAl-CO3 LDHs.
