Download or read book Adsorption by Virgin and Modified Activated Carbon Fibers written by Zaheer Shaikh and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The important factors involved in the adsorption of aromatic compounds from aqueous solution by activated carbon, surface chemistry and porosity, were examined in this thesis. This was achieved by systematically investigating the adsorption of benzene, aniline, toluene, nitrobenzene and fluorobenzene by a granular activated carbon and various virgin and surface modified activated carbon fibers. The adsorption of water molecules (water vapor isotherms), the synthetic organic compound (SOC) itself (SOC vapor isotherms), and the SOC in water (i.e. SOC aqueous phase isotherms) on activated carbons were studied side by side.

Download or read book Preparation Modification and Characterization of Activated Carbon Derived from Macadamia Nutshells and Its Adsorption Rate and Capacity for Au CN 2 Compared to Commercially Prepared Coconut Shells written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Activated carbons have been produced from various carbonaceous source materials including nutshells, peat, wood, coir, lignite, coal and petroleum pitch and the produced carbons have been used for adsorption of inorganic and organic compounds from numerous matrices. Activated carbons are characterized by large surface area and high degree of microporosity. The ability of activated carbon to adsorb gold from solutions, which is present in very low concentrations while loading to fairly high concentrations, has made it an attractive material for the concentration of gold from dilute solutions. Consequently, the use of activated carbons for the recovery of gold from cyanide-leached liquors has gained wide acceptance in the mining industry. However, the price of commercially prepared carbons, the time taken for them to arrive, the breakage of the carbon during transportation and the interest in utilization of various local wastes for the generation of adsorbents has led to a search of more cost effective and time friendly source for the activated carbons. The focus of this research was to conduct a study in which a comparison was conducted between untreated coconut shell derived activated carbon (CAC) and Macadamia nutshell derived activated carbon (MAC) for the adsorption of gold.

Download or read book Coconut Shell Charcoal Adsorption to Remove Methyl Orange in Aqueous Solutions written by Miguel Manuel Manuel P√©rez Hern√°ndez and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Activated charcoal was prepared and characterized from residues of coconut peel (CACC) to remove by adsorption the Methyl Orange (AM) dye in aqueous solution. The charcoal was activated with phosphoric acid. The morphology and structure of the pores of the carbon obtained were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and a surface analyzer. The adsorption data were evaluated by the BET, Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, finding the Langmuir type I model. The surface area of the activated carbon was 526 m2/g with a pore volume of 0.234¬†cm3/g and an average pore diameter of 1.78¬†nm, according to BET, which indicates the presence of micropores. The calculated thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of the AM dye in CACC is a spontaneous process at room temperature and that physisorption and chemisorption are probably involved. The adsorption tests were followed by UV,Äìvisible spectrophotometry. The effects of the adsorbate concentration (AM) and the heat treatment (450,Äì500¬∞C) with an air atmosphere were investigated, keeping constant the stirring time and the H3PO4/sample weight ratio. The results obtained indicate that the activated carbon obtained could be used as an alternative low-cost adsorbent in the removal of AM from effluents in aqueous solution.
