Analysis and modeling of fixed bed column operations on flumequine removal onto activated carbon: pH influence and desorption studies
TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption capacity of flumequine-activated carbon at various pH values was investigated, and the results showed that pH values lower or higher than 6.3 (natural pH) decreased the capacity.

The effects of dual porosity on transport and retardation in peat: A laboratory experiment
TL;DR: Rezanezhad et al. as mentioned in this paper studied the effects of dual porosity on transport and retardation in peat in a laboratory experiment and found that the transport and desorption of solutes through peat is significantly delayed by sorption and by diffusion into immobile water contained in the peat matrix.

Water-Stable Nanoscale Zirconium-Based Metal–Organic Frameworks for the Effective Removal of Glyphosate from Aqueous Media
TL;DR: NU- 1000 was found to be better compared to UiO-67, both in terms of efficiency and reusability, and theoretical calculations revealed that the interaction energy of glyphosate with the nodes of NU-1000 is higher, which might be the possible reason for the higher efficiency of N U-1000.
