Simulation of dye adsorption by beech sawdust as affected by pH

TL;DR: The effect of pH on the batch kinetics of methylene blue adsorption on beech sawdust was simulated, in order to evaluate sawdust potential use as low cost adsorbent for wastewater dye removal.

Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) shell-based activated carbon by CO2 activation in removing of Cationic dye from aqueous solution: Kinetics and equilibrium studies

TL;DR: In this paper, a low-cost precursor for the production of activated carbon (AC) was used as a low cost precursor for production of ACS and evaluated for its ability to adsorb Methylene Blue (MB) dye.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of pore size distribution on tetracycline adsorption using magnetic hypercrosslinked resins

TL;DR: In this article, three magnetic porous resins using different amounts of porogen toluene were used to evaluate the fouling-resistance of the resins during tetracycline removal.

Modeling adsorption kinetics of trichloroethylene onto biochars derived from soybean stover and peanut shell wastes

TL;DR: The pseudo-second order and intraparticle diffusion models were well fitted to the kinetic data, thereby, indicating that chemisorption and pore diffusion were the dominating mechanisms of TCE adsorption onto biochars.

The mathematics of diffusion

John Crank
TL;DR: Though it incorporates much new material, this new edition preserves the general character of the book in providing a collection of solutions of the equations of diffusion and describing how these solutions may be obtained.

Physical chemistry of surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the nature and properties of liquid interfaces, including the formation of a new phase, nucleation and crystal growth, and the contact angle of surfaces of solids.

Pore and solid diffusion models for fixed-bed adsorbers

TL;DR: In this article, the prosity factor of the pore model is shown to be very important, especially as the porosity decreases, and the importance of the two diffusional models with respect to the predicted breakthrough curves is demonstrated.
