Absorption of chlorophenols on granular activated carbon

Creator:

Yang, Maoyu

Abstract:

Studies were undertaken of the adsorption of chlorinated phenols from aqueous solution on granular activated carbon (Filtrasorb-400, 30x40 mesh). Single-component equilibrium adsorption data on the eight compounds in two concentration ranges at pH 7.0 fit the Langmuir equation better than the Freundlich equation. The adsorptive capacities at pH 7.0 increase...

Experimental evaluation and chemical modeling of hexavalent chromium adsorption, desorption, and reduction in a natural soil

Creator:

Azizian, Mohammed F.

Abstract:

Chromium and its compounds are widely used by modern industries, resulting in large quantities of this element being discharged into the environment. To remove chromium from contaminated soils and ground water, it is necessary to predict chemical and physical processes that control the rate of reactions and transport of chromium...
