Abstract The potential use of spent coffee ground (SCG) for the removal copper has been investigated as a low‐cost adsorbent biosorption heavy metals. Adsorption batch experiments were conducted to determine isotherms and kinetics. equilibrium data found fit well Freundlich model an experimental maximum capacity ions 0.214 mmol/g was achieved. kinetics SCG studied at different adsorbate concentrations (0.1–1.0 mM) stirring speeds (100–400/min). results showed increase in ion uptake with...

Today, fluoride represents one of the most often found, and resilient, pollutants threatening health millions people around globe. The use biosorbents is an interesting alternative technique for removal fluorine-ions. Chitosan a natural biopolymer with surface groups capable removing fluorine; however, their lack mechanical stability restricts its application. In present work, we proposed that such limitations can be overcame by forming composite zeolite (ZCC). A proper zeolite-to-chitosan...

Experimental data for the equilibrium adsorption of pentachlorophenol (PCP) onto activated carbon fibers (ACFs) in form felt (AC-felt) and cloth (AC-cloth) were obtained a batch adsorber. The effect pH on capacity was investigated by determining isotherm range from 6 to 12. It found that reduced upon increasing speciation diagram PCP revealed adsorbed ACFs as pentachlorophenolate ion. diminished slightly temperature 15 35 °C. AC-felt due dispersion forces caused π−π interactions. These...

Abstract The ion‐exchange equilibrium of Pb(II) and Cd(II) on clinoptilolite from different deposits was studied in this work. Langmuir isotherm fitted the data both ions better than Freundlich isotherm. capacity natural zeolite to exchange increased, augmenting solution pH. This behaviour attributed interactions between surface charge zeolite. Moreover, increased when temperature raised 15 35 °C. tendency explained by assuming that ion an endothermic reaction. selectivity for metal cations...

Abstract The effects of surface properties and solution pH temperature on the adsorption cadmium(II) onto activated carbon fiber cloth (ACC) made from polyacrylonitrile (PAN) were investigated in this work. ACC was oxidized with HNO3 concentration acidic sites increased during oxidation whereas that basic ones diminished. capacity higher than without because contained greater sites. It found maximum took place at 8 near 22 times, augmenting 2 to 8. diminished average twofold, increasing 15...

A composite was obtained from cellulosic agricultural waste material ( Sorghum vulgare ) coated with conducting polypyrrole by in situ polymerization using potassium persulfate as chemical oxidant. The characterized Raman spectroscopy, FTIR scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and cyclic voltammetry. Aqueous adsorption experiments of methylene blue dye onto the materials at different pH values were conducted. results showed that this is an efficient sorbent for removal. mechanism well...
