Industrial, agricultural, and domestic activities of humans have affected the environmental system, resulting in drastic problems such as global warming generation wastewater containing high levels pollutants. As water good quality is a precious commodity available limited amounts, it has become highly imperative to treat for removal In addition, rapid modernization society also led huge amount materials little value that no fruitful use. Such are generally considered waste, their disposal...
Universal mechanisms of adsorption and capillary condensation toluene nitrogen on ordered MCM-41 PHTS materials are studied by means high-resolution experiments Monte Carlo molecular simulations. A simulation model in silica nanopores, which accounts for surface heterogeneity, a hybrid molecular-macsroscopic method pore size distribution (PSD) calculations have been developed. For range reference materials, the PSD results obtained from isotherms consistent with using nonlocal density...
Adsorption–desorption isotherms of aromatic (mesitylene and toluene) aliphatic (methylcyclohexane, neopentane n-pentane) hydrocarbons were measured on ordered mesoporous materials, including MCM-41, MCM-48, SBA-15, SBA-16 MCF silicas, a periodic organosilica CMK-3 carbon, in order to evaluate the effect adsorbent characteristics organic compounds adsorption behaviour. A clear separation between is observed at low p/po for materials having pores accessible by narrow openings. The presence...
