Activation of grapefruit derived biochar by its peel extracts and its performance for tetracycline removal.

TLDR
A novel adsorbent derived from grapefruit peel (GP) based biochar (GPBC) was synthesized by combined carbonization of GP and subsequent activation by GP extracts, granting GPBC-20 more abundant surface functional groups, which exerts the adsorbents superior performance for tetracycline adsorption.

The adsorption of gases on plane surfaces of glass, mica and platinum.

TL;DR: In this article, the absorption index at the wave length of the band maximum was found to be proportional to the total concentration of metal at shorter wave lengths, however, deviations were observed, the absorption increasing more rapidly with concentration than Beers' law would demand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pseudo-second order model for sorption processes

TL;DR: In this paper, a literature review of the use of sorbents and biosorbents to treat polluted aqueous effluents containing dyes:organics or metal ions has been conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetics of Adsorption on Carbon from Solution

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the rate of adsorption of persistent organic compounds on granular carbon is quite low and the rate is partially a function of the pore size distribution of the adsorbent, of the molecular size and configuration of the solute, and of the relative electrokinetic properties of adsorbate and adsorbents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption and removal of tetracycline antibiotics from aqueous solution by graphene oxide

TL;DR: Graphene oxide is a potential effective absorbent for tetracycline antibiotics and can be used to remove them from aqueous solution and has a better rate constant of sorption, 0.065 g mg(-1) h(-1), than other adsorbents.
