Combined control of fluid adsorption capacity and initial permeability on coal permeability

The variations of strain and permeability of coal were systematically studied through the physical simulation of N2 and water injection.The effects of fluid adsorption capacity and initial permeability on strain,permeability and the dominant effect of pore pressure were discussed.The adsorption strain and strain rate of coal during water injection are significantly higher than those during N2 injection.An edge of free adsorption exists in the early phase of N2 and water injection,which is related to fluid saturation.Within this boundary,the strain rate and pore pressure are independent.Moreover,the injec-tion time of initial stage accounts for about 20%of the total injection time,but the strain accounts for 70%of the total strain.For water injection,this boundary is about half of water saturation of coal.Besides,the influence of pore pressure on permeability is complex,which is controlled by adsorption capacity and initial permeability of coal.When the initial permeability is large enough,the effect of adsorption strain on permeability is relatively weak,and the promoting effect of pore pressure on fluid migration is dominant.Therefore,the permeability increases with increasing pore pressure.When the initial permeability is relatively low,the pore pressure may have a dominant role in promoting fluid migration for the fluid with weak adsorption capacity.However,for the fluid with strong adsorption capacity,the adsorption strain caused by pore pressure may play a leading role,and the permeability reduces first and then ascends with increasing pore pressure.

The Effect of Coal Fly Ash Treatment with NaOH on the Characters and Adsorption Capacity toward Pb（Ⅱ） in the Solution

Coal fly ash （CFA） generated by coal-based thermal power plants is mainly composed of some oxides having high crystallinity, including quartz and mullite. In this study, the effect of CFA crystallinity toward its capacity on Pb（Ⅱ） adsorption was investigated. CFA with various crystaUinity was obtanied by refluxing it with sodium hydroxide （NaOH） solution having various concentrations （1-7 M） at various temperature and reflux time. To evaluate the effect of crystallinity of treated CFA on the adsorption capacity, adsorption of Pb（Ⅱ） solution with treated CFA was carried out. The research shows that the reflux of CFA with NaOH solution leads to the crystallinity of quartz and mullite in CFA decreased. The decrease is proportional with the concentration increasing, the temperature elevation, and the longer time. The reflux using NaOH solution with high concentration （〉 3 M） in addition causes a decrease in the crystallinity of quartz and mullite, also results in the formation of hydroxysodalite. The decrease of the CFA crystalllinity gives an increase in CFA adsorption capacity toward Pb（Ⅱ） solution.

Study of Static Adsorption Capacity of ACF for Xenon at 201 K

The static adsorption performances of a series of active carbon fiber(ACF)for xenon at 201 K were measured with a model ASAP2010M specific surface area and aperture distribution instrument by changing the working gas of instrument from N 2 to Xenon. Compared with grain active carbon(GAC): (1) the adsorption performance of Viscose based ACF(VACF) adsorbents is better than that of GAC; (2) owing to the difference of aperture distribution, the adsorption performance of ACF with different radicales is different under the same experiment conditions though the specific surface area is similar; (3) there is no definite relationship between adsorption performance and specific surface area; (4) the VACF A2 is the superior xenon adsorbent at the experimental temperature.

Measurement of CO_(2) adsorption capacity with respect to different pressure and temperature in sub-bituminous: implication for CO_(2) geological sequestration

CCUS (carbon capture, utilization, and storage) technology is regarded as a bottom method to achieve carbon neutrality globally. CO_(2) storage in deep coal reservoirs serves as a feasible selection for CCUS, and its storage potential can be attributed to the CO_(2) adsorption capacity of the coal. In this paper, a series of CO_(2) adsorption isotherm experiments were performed at different pressures and temperatures in sub-bituminous coal from the southern Junggar Basin (reservoir temperature ∼25.9°C and pressure ∼3.91 MPa). In addition, the high-pressure CO_(2) adsorption characteristics of the southern Junggar Basin coal were characterized using a supercritical D-R adsorption model. Finally, the CO_(2) storage capacities in sub-bituminous coal under the in situ reservoir temperature and pressure were analyzed. Results indicated that the excess adsorption capacities increase gradually with increasing injection pressure before reaching an asymptotic maximum magnitude of ∼34.55 cm3/g. The supercritical D-R adsorption model is suitable for characterizing the excess/absolute CO_(2) adsorption capacity, as shown by the high correlation coefficients > 0.99. The CO_(2) adsorption capacity increases with declining temperature, indicating a negative effect of temperature on CO_(2) geological sequestration. By analyzing the statistical relationships of the D-R adsorption fitting parameters with the reservoir temperature, a CO_(2) adsorption capacity evolution model was established, which can be further used for predicting CO_(2) sequestration potential at in situ reservoir conditions. CO_(2) adsorption capacity slowly increases before reaching the critical CO_(2) density, following a rapid decrease at depths greater than ∼800 m in the southern Junngar Basin. The research results presented in this paper can provide guidance for evaluating CO_(2) storage potential in deep coal seams.

Simultaneous Adsorption of Aqueous Pb2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Cd2+ Using Surfactant-Modified and Unmodified Activated Carbon in a Fixed Bed Column

The goal of this work is to improve the simultaneous removal of Pb2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Cd2+ ions from synthetic wastewater in a fixed bed column by incorporating sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) onto the surface of activated carbon made from coconut shells. The activated carbons were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive x-ray (SEM-EDX). The adsorption column dynamics were studied by varying the flow rates (5, 10 and 15 mL/min), bed heights (10, 15 and 20 cm), and initial concentrations (50, 150, and 250 mg/L). The activated carbon has a pore volume of 0.715 cm3/g and a BET-specific surface area of 1410 m2/g. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) surfactant incorporation onto the surface of the activated carbon enhances its capacity for simultaneous adsorption of Pb2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Cd2+ from the aqueous medium. The affinity of the heavy metals to both unmodified (AC) and modified (AC-SDS) activated carbons followed the order of Pb2+ > Cu2+ > Zn2+ > Cd2+. The dynamic adsorption of the column depends on the flow rate, bed height, initial metal concentration, and SDS surface modification. With a 5 mL/min flow rate, a 20 cm bed height, and a 50 mg/L initial metal concentration, a maximum break-through time of 150 minutes for the unmodified activated carbon (AC) and 180 minutes for the SDS-modified activated carbon (AC-SDS) was reached.

Characterization of adsorptive capacity and mechanisms on adsorption of copper, lead and zinc by modified orange peel

A novel adsorbent was prepared by modifying orange peel with sodium hydroxide and calcium chloride. The morphological and characteristics of the adsorbent were evaluated by infrared spectroscopy （IR）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and N2-adsorption techniques. The adsorption behavior of Cu^2＋, Pb^2＋ and Zn^2＋ on modified orange peel （SCOP） was studied by varying parameters like pH, initial concentration of metal ions. Equilibrium was well described by Langmuir equation with the maximum adsorption capacities for Cu^2＋, Pb^2＋ and Zn^2＋ of 70.73, 209.8 and 56.18 mg/g, respectively. Based on the results obtained in batch experiments, breakthrough profiles were examined using a column packed with SCOP for the separation of small concentration of Pb^2＋ from an excess of Zn^2＋ followed by elution tests. Ion exchange with Ca^2＋ neutralizing the carboxyl groups of the pectin was found to be the predominant mechanism.

Methane Adsorption Capacity Reduction Process of Water-Bearing Shale Samples and Its Influencing Factors: One Example of Silurian Longmaxi Formation Shale from the Southern Sichuan Basin in China

Due to the existence of water content in shale reservoir,it is quite meaningful to clarify the effect of water content on the methane adsorption capacity(MAC)of shale.However,the role of spatial configuration relationship between organic matter(OM)and clay minerals in the MAC reduction process is still unclear.The Silurian Longmaxi Formation shale samples from the Southern Sichuan Basin in China were prepared at five relative humidity(RH)conditions(0%,16%,41%,76%,99%)and the methane adsorption experiments were conducted on these water-bearing shale samples to clarify the MAC reduction process considering the spatial configuration relationship between clay minerals and OM and establish the empirical model to fit the stages.Total organic carbon(TOC)content and mineral compositions were analyzed and the pore structures of these shale samples were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM),N2 adsorption and high-pressure mercury intrusion porosimetry(HPMIP).The results showed that the MAC reduction of clay minerals in OM occurred at different RH conditions from that of clay minerals outside OM.Furthermore,the amount of MAC reduction of shale samples prepared at the same RH condition was negatively related with clay content,which indicated the protection role of clay minerals for the MAC of water-bearing shale samples.The MAC reduction process was generally divided into three stages for siliceous and clayey shale samples.And the MAC of OM started to decline during stage(1)for calcareous shale sample mainly because water could enter OM pores more smoothly through hydrophobic pathway provided by carbonate minerals than through hydrophilic clay mineral pores.Overall,this study will contribute to improving the evaluation method of shale gas reserve.

Determination of gas adsorption capacity in organic-rich marine shale: a case study of Wufeng-Lower Longmaxi Shale in the southeast Sichuan Basin

Determination of gas adsorption capacity under geological conditions is essential in evaluating shale gas resource potential.A quantitative determination of gas adsorption capacity was proposed through 1)investigating controlling geological factors(including both internal ones and external ones)of gas adsorption capacity in organic-rich marine shale with geochemical analysis,XRD diffraction,field-emission scanning electron microscopy,and methane sorption isotherms;2)defining the relationship between gas adsorption capacity and single controlling factor;3)establishing a comprehensive determination model with the consideration of all these controlling factors.The primary controlling factors of the sorption capacity for the studied O3wLower S1l shale are TOC,illite and quartz,temperature,pressure,Ro,and moisture(water saturation).Specifically,TOC,thermal maturity,illite,and pressure are positively correlated with sorption capacity,whereas,quartz and temperature contribute negatively to the sorption capacity.We present the quantitative model along with application examples from the Wufeng-Lower Longmaxi Shale in the southeast Sichuan Basin,west China,to demonstrate the approach in shale gas evaluation.The result shows that the comprehensive determination model provides a good and unbiased estimate of gas adsorption capacities with a high correlation coefficient(0.96)and bell-shaped residues centered at zero.

Novel interface engineering of LDH-based materials on Mg alloy for efficient photocatalytic systems considering the geometrical linearity of condensed phosphates

This study presents a facile and rapid method for synthesizing novel Layered Double Hydroxide(LDH)nanoflakes,exploring their application as a photocatalyst,and investigating the influence of condensed phosphates'geometric linearity on their photocatalytic properties.Herein,the Mg O film,obtained by plasma electrolysis of AZ31 Mg alloys,was modified by growing an LDH film,which was further functionalized using cyclic sodium hexametaphosphate(CP)and linear sodium tripolyphosphate(LP).CP acted as an enhancer for flake spacing within the LDH structure,while LP changed flake dispersion and orientation.Consequently,CP@LDH demonstrated exceptional efficiency in heterogeneous photocatalysis,effectively degrading organic dyes like Methylene blue(MB),Congo red(CR),and Methyl orange(MO).The unique cyclic structure of CP likely enhances surface reactions and improves the catalyst's interaction with dye molecules.Furthermore,the condensed phosphate structure contributes to a higher surface area and reactivity in CP@LDH,leading to its superior photocatalytic performance compared to LP@LDH.Specifically,LP@LDH demonstrated notable degradation efficiencies of 93.02%,92.89%,and 88.81%for MB,MO,and CR respectively,over a 40 min duration.The highest degradation efficiencies were observed in the case of the CP@LDH sample,reporting 99.99%for MB,98.88%for CR,and 99.70%for MO.This underscores the potential of CP@LDH as a highly effective photocatalyst for organic dye degradation,offering promising prospects for environmental remediation and water detoxification applications.

Combined Promoting Effects of Specific Organic Functional Groups and Alumina Surface Characteristics for the Design of a Highly Efficient NiMo/Al_(2)O_(3) Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst

To prepare a highly efficient NiMo/Al_(2)O_(3) hydrodesulfurization catalyst,the combined effects of specific organic functional groups and alumina surface characteristics were investigated.First,the correlation between the surface characteristics of four different alumina and the existing Mo species states was established.It was found that the Mo equilibrium adsorption capacity can be used as a specific descriptor to quantitatively evaluate the changes in surface characteristics of different alumina.A lower Mo equilibrium adsorption capacity for alumina means weaker metal-support interaction and the loaded Mo species are easier to transform into MoS2.However,the Mo-O-Al bonds still exist at the metal-support interface.The introduction of cationic surfactant hecadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide(CTAB)can further improve Mo species dispersion through electrostatic attraction with Mo anions and interaction of its alkyl chain with the alumina surface;meanwhile,the introduction of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid(EDTA)can complex with Ni ions to enhance the Ni-promoting effect on Mo.Therefore,the NiMo catalyst designed using alumina with lower Mo equilibrium adsorption capacity and the simultaneous addition of EDTA and CTAB exhibits the highest hydrodesulfurization activity for 4,6-dimethyl dibenzothiophene because of its proper metal-support interaction and more well-dispersed Ni-Mo-S active phases.

Effects of conductive agent type on lithium extraction from salt lake brine with LiFePO_(4) electrodes

Electrochemical lithium extraction from salt lakes is an effective strategy for obtaining lithium at a low cost.Nevertheless,the elevated Mg:Li ratio and the presence of numerous coexisting ions in salt lake brines give rise to challenges,such as prolonged lithium extraction periods,diminished lithium extraction efficiency,and considerable environmental pollution.In this work,Li FePO4(LFP)served as the electrode material for electrochemical lithium extraction.The conductive network in the LFP electrode was optimized by adjusting the type of conductive agent.This approach resulted in high lithium extraction efficiency and extended cycle life.When the single conductive agent of acetylene black(AB)or multiwalled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs)was replaced with the mixed conductive agent of AB/MWCNTs,the average diffusion coefficient of Li+in the electrode increased from 2.35×10^(-9)or 1.77×10^(-9)to 4.21×10^(-9)cm^(2)·s^(-1).At the current density of 20 mA·g^(-1),the average lithium extraction capacity per gram of LFP electrode increased from 30.36 mg with the single conductive agent(AB)to 35.62 mg with the mixed conductive agent(AB/MWCNTs).When the mixed conductive agent was used,the capacity retention of the electrode after 30 cycles reached 82.9%,which was considerably higher than the capacity retention of 65.8%obtained when the single AB was utilized.Meanwhile,the electrode with mixed conductive agent of AB/MWCNTs provided good cycling performance.When the conductive agent content decreased or the loading capacity increased,the electrode containing the mixed conductive agent continued to show excellent electrochemical performance.Furthermore,a self-designed,highly efficient,continuous lithium extraction device was constructed.The electrode utilizing the AB/MWCNT mixed conductive agent maintained excellent adsorption capacity and cycling performance in this device.This work provides a new perspective for the electrochemical extraction of lithium using LFP electrodes.

Investigation of methane adsorption on chlorite by grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations

In this paper, the methane adsorption behaviours in slit-like chlorite nanopores were investigated using the grand canonical Monte Carlo simulation method, and the influences of the pore sizes, temperatures, water, and compositions on methane adsorption on chlorite were discussed. Our investigation revealed that the isosteric heat of adsorption of methane in slit-like chlorite nanopores decreased with an increase in pore size and was less than 42 kJ/mol, suggesting that methane adsorbed on chlorite through physical adsorption. The methane excess adsorp- tion capacity increased with the increase in the pore size in micropores and decreased with the increase in the pore size in mesopores. The methane excess adsorption capacity in chlorite pores increased with an increase in pressure or decrease in pore size. With an increase in temperature, the isosteric heats of adsorption of methane decreased and the methane adsorption sites on chlorite changed from lower- energy adsorption sites to higher-energy sites, leading to the reduction in the methane excess adsorption capacity. Water molecules in chlorite pores occupied the pore wall in a directional manner, which may be related to the van der Waals and Coulomb force interactions and the hydrogen bonding interaction. It was also found that water molecules existed as aggregates. With increasing water content, the water molecules occupied the adsorption sites and adsorption space of the methane, leading to a reduction in the methane excess adsorption capacity. The excess adsorption capacity of gas on chlorite decreased in the following order： carbon dioxide 〉 methane 〉 nitrogen. If the mole fraction of nitrogen or carbon dioxide in the binary gas mixture increased, the mole fraction of methane decreased, methane adsorption sites changed, and methane adsorption space was reduced, resulting in the decrease in the methane excess adsorption capacity.

An Adsorption Kinetic Model for Sulfur Dioxide Adsorption by ZL50 Activated Carbon

A semi-empirical adsorption kinetic model was proposed with the time compensation method to describe the chemisorption of SO2 in flue gas by carbon adsorbents for flue gas purification.The change in adsorption capacity and adsorption rate with time at different water vapor concentrations and different SO2 concentrations was studied.The model was in good agreement with experimental data.The surface reaction was probably the rate controlling step in the early stage for SO2 adsorption by ZL50 activated carbon.The parameters m and n in the nth order adsorption kinetic model were related to the magnitude of the time compensation and adsorption driving force,respectively.The change of parameter n with water vapor concentrations and sulfur dioxide concentrations was studied and some physical implications were given.The sum of square errors was less than 1.0 and the average absolute percentage deviations ranged from 0.5 to 3.2.The kinetic model was compared with other models in the literature.

Study on the adsorption of Cr( Ⅵ) onto landfill liners containing granular activated carbon or bentonite activated by acid

The adsorption capacity of landfill liners containing granular activated carbon (GAC), or bentonite activated by acid, for Cr(VI) was investigated by batch testing. The results show that both GAC and activated bentonite could be used as sorptive amendments for trapping Cr(VI) in landfill liners. The Cr(VI) sorption to GAC and activated bentonite is much greater than Cr(VI) sorption to natural clay. The adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) onto all the soils increases with increasing temperature; adsorption capacity is also significantly influenced by soil-solid concentration. As the soil-solid concentration increases the adsorption capacity first decreases logarithmically, but then stabilizes when the soil-solid concentration exceeds a critical value (e.g. 400 g/L). Permeability tests were conducted in the laboratory. The results indicate that the hydraulic conductivity of landfill liners containing GAC or activated bentonite can meet the engineering requirement of 1 nm/s. One-dimensional transport simulations for Cr(VI) were performed to evaluate the effect of GAC and activated bentonite on landfill liners. The results of the simulations indicate that landfill liners containing GAC, or activated bentonite, significantly retard the transport of Cr(VI) relative to a conventional clay liner.

Adsorption Refrigeration Performance of Shaped MIL-101-Water Working Pair

A new metal-organic framework of MIL-101 was synthesized by hydrothermal method and the powder prepared was pressed into a desired shape. The effects of molding on specific surface area and pore structure were investigated using a nitrogen adsorption method. The water adsorption isotherms were obtained by high vacuum gravimetric method, the desorption temperature of water on shaped MIL-101 was measured by thermo gravimetric analyzer, and the adsorption refrigeration performance of shaped MIL-101-water working pair was studied on the simulation device of adsorption refrigeration cycle system. The results indicate that an apparent hysteresis loop ap-pears in the nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms when the forming pressure is 10 MPa. The equilibrium ad-sorption capacity of water is up to 0.95 kg·kg^-1 at the forming pressure of 3 MPa （MIL-101-3）. The desorption peak temperature of water on MIL-101-3 is 82℃, which is 7 ℃ lower than that of silica gel, and the desorption temperature is no more than 100 ℃. At the evaporation temperature of 10 ℃, the refrigeration capacity of MIL-101-3-water is 1059 kJ·kg^-1, which is 2.24 times higher than that of silica gel-water working pair. Thus MIL-101-water working pair presents an excellent adsorption refrigeration performance.

Implications from γ-globulin adsorption onto cation exchangers fabricated by sequential alginate grafting and sulfonation

Our previous work proved that high adsorption capacity and uptake rate of lysozyme were achieved on alginate(Alg)-grafted re sin with an ionic capacity(IC) of 240 mmol·L^(-1)(Alg-FF-240).Moreover,the salt-tolerant feature of Alg-FF-230 was improved by using sequential alginate grafting and sulfonation strategy.Inspired by the enhanced adsorption performance of lysozyme,we have herein proposed to investigate the static and dynamic adsorption behaviors of γ-globulin on a series of Alg-grafted resins with different grafting densities and sulfonation degrees.The adsorption ca pacity of γ-globulin decreased with increa sing alginate-grafting density(IC) from 160 to 230 mmol·L^(-1) at 0 mmol·L^(-1) NaCl because of the steric hindrance caused by the alginate-grafting layer.Effects of ionic strength(IS) indicated that the adsorption capacities of the resins with the IC value of 230-370 mmol·L^(-1) were much higher than CM Sepharose FF at 50-100 mmol·L^(-1) NaCl,and the uptake rate of Alg-FF-230 was about twice as much as that of CM Sepharose FF.This work demonstrated the important effects of alginate-grafting layer and IS in γ-globulin adsorption behavior,which would be helpful in the design of Alggrafted resins and the selection of proper IS condition for protein purification.

Impact of Montmorillonite and Calcite on Release and Adsorption of Cyanobacterial Fatty Acids at Ambient Temperature

Minerals might act as important sorbents of sedimentary organic matter and reduce biodegradation, which favors the formation of hydrocarbon source rocks in the earth＇s history. Since most organic matter is degraded during the sinking process, at ambient temperature, it is important to investigate the adsorption capacity of different minerals during this process, to assess the organic loss from primary productivity to sedimentary organic matter. In this study, montmorillonite and calcite have been selected to study the impact of different minerals on the release, adsorption, and deposition of cyanobacterial （Synechococcus elonpata） fatty acids （FAs） at ambient temperature. Gas chromatography （GC）, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry （GC-MS） have been utilized to detect the variation in fatty acids. Primary results suggest that minerals have a different impact on dissolved organic matter. Montmorillonite can specifically enhance the release of fatty acids from cyanobacterial cells by lowering the pH values of the solution. The adsorption of the dissolved organic matter by montmoriilonite will also be enhanced under a lower pH value. Conjunction of fatty acids with montmoriilonite to form a complex will favor the sinking and preservation of these organics. Selective adsorption is observed among fatty acids with different carbon numbers. In contrast, calcite does not show any impact on the release and adsorption of organic matter even though it is reportedly capable of acting as a catalyst during the transformation of organic matter at high temperature. The primary data bridge a link between primary productivity and sedimentary organic matter, suggesting the relative importance of claystones in the formation of hydrocarbon source rocks in the earth＇s history.

Adsorption of Ammonium and Heavy Metal Ions on Industrial Vermiculite from the Yuli Mine in Xinjiang, China

The present work discusses the mineralogy, saturated adsorption of ammonium and adsorption of heavy metal ions （Cu^2＋, Pb^2＋ and Zn^2＋） on industrial vermiculite samples from the Yuli Mine in Xinjiang Autonomous Region. The saturated adsorption capacity of ammonium and the affection factors of adsorption of Cu^2＋, Pb^2＋ and Zn^2＋ are discussed on the basis of the mineralogical characteristics of the industrial vermiculite samples. The saturated adsorption capacities of ammonium are between 56.02 and 98.42 mmol/100g. The time of adsorption equilibrium is about 30-60 min, and the pH values and concentration of the ion solution significantly affect the adsorption capacities of the heavy metal ions. The adsorption capabilities of the heavy metal ions on industrial vermiculite are almost the same in the low ion concentration solutions, characterized by a sequence of Zn^2＋〉Pb^2＋〉Cu^2＋ for adsorption capacity in solutions with relatively high ion concentration. The results have practical significance for the application of the industrial vermiculite to treating wastewater containing ammonium or heavy metal ions.

Adsorption Properties and Cost of Dicarboxylic Nanocellulose on Copper Ions for Wastewater Treatment

The accumulation of Cu^(2+)in water is a potential threat to human health and environment.Dicarboxylic nano-cellulose(DNC)with rich carboxyl groups was prepared through the NaIO_(4)–NaClO_(2) sequential oxidation meth-od to efficiently remove copper ions,and the Cu 2+adsorption properties and cost were studied.The maximum adsorption capacity reached 184.2 mg/g at pH 6 and an adsorbent dose of 5 g/L.Theoretically,the maximum adsorption capacities of monocarboxylic nanocellulose(MNC),DNC,and tricarboxylic nanocellulose(TNC)with carboxyl groups as the main adsorption sites were calculated to be 228.7,261.3,and 148.1 mg/g,respectively.The Cu^(2+)adsorption costs of MNC,DNC,and TNC were calculated and compared with those of powdered activated carbon(PAC).The Cu^(2+)adsorption capacity of DNC is higher than that of PAC,and the adsorption cost is close to or lower than that of PAC,demonstrating that the DNC prepared by sequential oxidation of NaIO_(4)–NaClO_(2) has competitive adsorption capacity and cost in the treatment of wastewater containing Cu^(2+).

Adsorption and Desorption of Phenol on XDA-1 Macroreticular Resin

The adsorption properties of phenol on XDA-1 resin were studied by chemical analysis and IR spectrometry.The statically saturated adsorption capacity,dynamic saturated adsorption capacity,apparent activation energy,thermodynamic parameters,and adsorption rate constants were measured at different temperatures.As a result,adsorption of phenol on the resin obeys the Freundlich formula.And phenol was recovered quantitatively when ethanol,acetone or 1.0 mol/L sodium hydroxide were used to desorb it from the column.
