Adsorptive and photocatalytic removal of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in water by metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)

TL;DR: In this article, a mini-review introduces the classification of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and summarizes the current research progress on adsorptive and photocatalytic removal for each group of POPs using the emerging MOFs and functional MOFs.

Effective removal of methylene blue from aqueous solutions using magnetic loaded activated carbon as novel adsorbent

TL;DR: In this article, magnetic characteristic was added to activated carbon (AC) obtained by ZnCl2 activation of acorn shell and the produced magnetic AC (Fe-AC) was used effectively for the removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution.

Critical of linear and nonlinear equations of pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order kinetic models

TL;DR: The experimental adsorption equilibrium of Cd(II) onto chitosan (CdII)/CS and methyl orange onto bentonite (MO/Bt) were studied in batch adsorsorption experiments at room temperature for an initial concentration of 236.5mg/L for Cd (II) (pH = 5) and 33mg/l for MO (pHO = 3).

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.
