Affinity dye-ligand poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate)/chitosan composite membrane for adsorption lysozyme and kinetic properties
TL;DR: The second-order equation for the adsorption of lysozyme on the dye–ligand membrane systems is the most appropriate equation to predict the adsOrption capacity for the affinity membrane.

Activated carbon xerogels for the removal of the anionic azo dyes Orange II and Chromotrope 2R by adsorption and catalytic wet peroxide oxidation
TL;DR: In this paper, the removal of azo dyes in aqueous solutions, either by adsorption or by catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO), was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of hexavalent chromium by new quaternized crosslinked poly(4-vinylpyridines).
TL;DR: It was showed the spontaneous and endothermic process of the adsorption of Cr(VI) on the pyridine resins that offered much greater chromate removal capacities compared to alkaline pH and good efficiency in the chromium removal.

Ni–Mn LDH-decorated 3D Fe-inserted and N-doped carbon framework composites for efficient uranium(VI) removal
TL;DR: In this paper, the removal of uranium(VI) from an aqueous solution (ppm level) and simulated seawater (ppb level) by the Fe-NCNF-LDH composites was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The range of validity of sorption kinetic models.
TL;DR: The aim of the present paper is to rationalize the analysis of liquid-phase adsorption kinetics data, and to investigate experimental factors that influence the adsorptive kinetics, in addition to the characteristics of the adsorbent material itself.
