Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of different drying techniques on the water sorption properties of cement-based materials
Didier Snoeck,Leticia F. Velasco,Arn Mignon,S. Van Vlierberghe,Peter Dubruel,Peter Lodewyckx,N. De Belie +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, DVS measurements were performed to characterize the changes induced by different drying techniques in the textural and sorption properties of the material, while thermogravimetric analysis was used to elucidate carbonation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of superabsorbent polymers on the microstructure of cementitious materials studied by means of sorption experiments
Didier Snoeck,Leticia F. Velasco,Arn Mignon,S. Van Vlierberghe,Peter Dubruel,Peter Lodewyckx,N. De Belie +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, static and dynamic vapour sorption (DVS) measurements were performed and compared to nitrogen adsorption experiments, and the models of Dubinin-Radushkevich and Barrett-Joyner-Halenda were applied to study pores in the micro- and mesopore range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the adsorption of lead by activated carbons from three lignocellulosic precursors
TL;DR: In this paper, three activated carbons samples from Guava seeds, tropical almond shells and Dinde stones were prepared by physical activation and they were studied for the removal of lead from water in batch mode.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Wheeler Jonas equation: a versatile tool for the prediction of carbon bed breakthrough times
TL;DR: In this article, the authors give an overview of the recent developments in the use of the Wheeler-Jonas equation for measuring breakthrough times of different types of activated carbon beds, under different experimental conditions, for a large variety of gases and vapours.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Humidity on Adsorption Capacity from the Wheeler-Jonas Model for Prediction of Breakthrough Times of Water Immiscible Organic Vapors on Activated Carbon Beds
Peter Lodewyckx,E.F. Vansant +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the main parameter in the Wheeler-Jonas equation is the adsorption capacity, We, and the influence of moisture on We was established. But this model is only valid under dry conditions: no prewetting of the filter and no humidity in the ambient air during use.
