CO_2 isothermal adsorption models of coal in the Haishiwan Coalfield

Since the capacity of CO2 adsorption of coal is a key factor in coal and CO2 outbursts,an experimental study was carried out on CO2 isothermal adsorption with high-pressure volumetry with dry coal samples from the No.2 coal seam in the Haishiwan Coalfield.Four different equations(Langmuir,BET,D-R and D-A) were used to fit the experimental data.We discuss adsorption mechanisms.The results show that the amount of CO2 adsorption increases rapidly under low relative pressure,i.e.,the ratio of equilibrium pressure and saturated vapor pressure,which indicates that molecular layer adsorption or micropore filling may occur in coal.No clear equilibrium state was observed on the isothermal adsorption curves under relative pressure(P /P0 ) ranging from 0 to 0.8.The fitted results show that the accuracy of the D-A equation is highest with n=1.Micropores are more developed in coal by comparing the BET equation with a pressure mercury injection method on the surface area.The D-A equation(n=1) provides the best fit.By comparing the calculated specific surface area of the BET equation and the mercury intrusion method,it is found that micropore adsorption of CO2 occupies a dominant position.

A New Competitive Adsorption Isothermal Model of Heavy Metals in Soils

A new competitive adsorption isothermal model(CAIM)was developed for the coexistent and competitive binding of heavy metals to the soil surface.This model extended the earlier adsorption isothermal models by considering more than one kind of ion adsorption on the soil surface.It was compared with the Langmuir model using different conditions, and it was found that CAIM,which was suitable for competitive ion adsorption at the soil solid-liquid surface,had more advantages than the Langmuir model.The new competitive adsorption isothermal model was used to fit the data of heavy metal(Zn and Cd)competitive adsorption by a yellow soil at two temperatures.The results showed that CAIM was appropriate for the competitive adsorption of heavy metals on the soil surface at different temperatures.The fitted parameters of CAIM had explicit physical meaning.The model allowed for the calculation of the standard molar Gibbs free energy change,the standard molar enthalpy change,and the standard molar entropy change of the competitive adsorption of the heavy metals,Zn and Cd,by the yellow soil at two temperatures using the thermodynamic equilibrium constants.

Features of the Excess Adsorption Isotherms of High-Pressure Methane Adsorption on Coal and Simulation Model

Four coal samples of different ranks are selected to perform the adsorption measurement of high-pressure methane（CH4）.The highest equilibrium pressure of the measurement exceeds 20 MPa. Combined with the measuring results and theoretical analyses,the reasons for the peak or the maximum adsorption capacity appearing in the excess adsorption isotherms are explained.The rules of the peak occurrence are summarized.And then,based on the features of coal pore structure,the adsorption features of high-pressure gas,the microcosmic interaction relationship of coal surface and CH4 molecule,and the coalbed methane reservoir conditions,three theoretical assumptions on the coal adsorption high-pressure CH_4 are suggested.Thereafter,on the basis of these theoretical assumptions,the Ono-Kondo lattice model is processed for simplification and deformation. Subsequently,the equations modeling the excess adsorption isotherm of high-pressure CH_4 adsorption on coal are obtained.Through the verification on the measurement data,the fitting results indicate that it is feasible to use the Ono-Kondo lattice mode to model the excess adsorption isotherm of high-pressure CH_4 adsorption on coal.

Adsorption isotherms and kinetic characteristics of methane on block anthracite over a wide pressure range

It is important to quantitatively understand the methane adsorption and transport mechanism in coal for an evaluation of the reserves and for its production forecast. In this work, a block coal sample was chosen to perform the CH_4 adsorption experiments using the gravimetric method at temperatures of 293.60 K, 311.26 K, 332.98 K and 352.55 K and pressures up to 19 MPa. The excess adsorption capacity of CH_4 in dry block anthracite increased, followed by a sequence decrease with the increasing pressure. High temperature restrained the growth of the excess adsorption due to that the adsorption is an intrinsically physical and exothermic process. The excess adsorption peak decreased slowly with the increase of temperature and intersected at a pressure of more than 18 MPa; meanwhile, the pressure at the excess adsorption peak increased. The existing correlations were exanfined in terms of density rather than pressure. The DR＋k correlation, with an average relative deviation of 4-0.51%, fitted our data better than the others, with an average relative deviation of up to 2.29%. The transportation characteristics of CH_4 adsorption was also investigated in this study, including the adsorption rate and diffusion in block coal. The kinetic data could be described by a modified unipore model. The adsorption rates were found to exhibit dependence on pressure and temperature at low pressures, while the calculated diffusivities exhibited little temperature dependence. In addition, the kinetic characteristics were compared between CH_4 and CO_2 adsorption on the block coal. The excess adsorption ratios of CO_2 to CH_4 obtained from the DR＋k model decreased with the increasing pressure.

Adsorption kinetics,isotherm,and thermodynamic studies of adsorption of pollutant from aqueous solutions onto humic acid

In the present study,humic acid was used as an adsorbent for the investigation of the adsorption kinetics,isotherms,and thermo-dynamic parameters of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution at varying pH,temperatures,and concentrations.Adsorption isotherms and equilibrium adsorption capacities were determined by the fittings of the experimental data to three well-known iso-therm models:Langmuir,Freundlich,and Redlich-Peterson.The results showed that the Langmuir and Redlich-Peterson models appear to fit the adsorption better than did the Freundlich adsorption model for the adsorption of chromium onto humic acid.The equilibrium constants were used to calculate thermodynamic parameters such as the change of free energy,enthalpy,and entropy.The derived adsorption constants (logaL) and their temperature dependencies from Langmuir isotherm have been used to calculate the corresponding thermodynamic quantities such as the free energy of adsorption,heat,and entropy of adsorption.The thermo-dynamic data indicate that Cr (VI) adsorption onto humic acid is entropically driven and characterized by physical adsorption.

Development of a first-order kinetics-based model for the adsorption of nickel onto peat

The use of peat for the removal of nickel from aqueous solutions has been investigated at various pH values by means of static conditions.The present research shows that the ability of Ni to bind to peat increases as the pH value increases.The solutions reach adsorption equilibrium rapidly.A reasonable kinetic model,first-order in nickel concentration,has been developed and fitted to the adsorption of nickel(II) onto peat.The first-order model provides a good correlation to the experimental data.The characteristic parameters of the Langmuir isotherm were determined at various temperatures.The relationship between kinetics and equilibrium isotherms was established through the forward-and backward-rate-constants,k1 and k2,and the equilibrium constant,K.

Adsorption of Naphthol Green B on unburned carbon：2-and3-parameter linear and non-linear equilibrium modelling

The study deals with adsorption of Naphthol Green B on two unburned carbons and the parent coal,from which the UCs have been created in a fluidised-bed power station.Particular attention has been paid to the adsorption equilibrium modelling:experimental data has been analysed using 2-parameter(Langmuir,Freundlich) and3-parameter(Redlich-Peterson) isotherms — both linear and non-linear regressions have been used for the estimation of the isotherm parameters.In the case of both UCs,the Langmuir isotherm model provides the worst fit,whereas 2-parameter Freundlich and 3-parameter Redlich-Peterson models are both good,from which 3-parameter Redlich-Peterson isotherm provides slightly better results(despite the penalty used for the higher number of parameters).In the case of both UCs,the linear regression of Freundlich and Redlich-Peterson models provides good results(comparable with non-linear regressions).Unlike both UCs,the best fit of the experimental data from the adsorption on the coal has been achieved by the Langmuir isotherm model.The results based on the Freundlich or Redlich-Peterson model were(in this case) somewhat worse.

Water Adsorption Isotherms of Amaranth (Amaranthus caudatus) Flour

Water sorption isotherms are unique for individual food materials and can be used directly to predict shelf life and determine proper storage conditions. In this context, the aim of this study was to determine the moisture adsorption isotherms of amaranth flour at 15℃, 25℃ and 35℃ in a range of water activity from 0.1 to 0.9. Experimental data were modeled using five equations commonly applied in the foods field. The goodness of the fit for each isotherm model was evaluated through the coefficient of determination, the variance due to error and the confidence interval of the estimated parameters. All models can predict the adsorption isotherms of amaranth flour, but the GAB equation gives a better understanding of the observed sorption behavior. Estimated adsorption monolayer water contents ranged from 6.4 g to 7.2 g of water per 100 g of dry material. It was observed by a weak dependence of water activity with temperature. For ensuring microbiological stability, water content in amaranth flour should not be higher than 13 g of water per 100 g of dry material.

The results were analyzed using three kinetic models, Lagergen first order, second order and the Elovich model. The obtained results show that the best-fit correlation of the experimental data was obtained using the second order model. Thermodynamic parameters for the adsorption system were determined at 283, 298 and 313 K.

Adsorption of Naphthalene on Clay and Sandy Soil from Aqueous Solution

The adsorption behavior of naphthalene using clay and sandy soil as adsorbents is examined under ambient conditions. The adsorption equilibrium of naphthalene on clay and sandy soil was evaluated by the Langmuir, Freundlich and Tempkin isotherms. The results showed that the equilibrium data for naphthalene fitted the Freundlich model best within the concentration range studied for both clay and sandy soil. Experimental results showed that the time taken to attain adsorption equilibrium for naphthalene was 26 hrs and 20 hrs for clay and sandy soil, respectively. Among the tested kinetic models in this study, the pseudo-second order successfully predicted the adsorption process.

Adsorption equilibrium for Z-ligustilide on C18-bonded silica from supercritical carbon dioxide

Adsorption equilibrium is of great importance for the preparative supercritical fluid chromatography(pre-SFC) in defining supercritical adsorption behavior and the industrial amplification.This paper presents adsorption isotherms of Z-ligustilide from supercritical carbon dioxide(SC-CO_2) on C18-bonded silica.Adsorption behavior was studied at 305.15 K,313.15 K and 323.15 K with SC-CO_2 density varying from 0.687 g·cm^(-3) to0.863 g·cm^(-3) with the elution by characteristic points(ECP) method.The adsorption amount of Z-ligustilide from SC-CO_2 on C18-bonded silica decreased with the increasing density of the mobile phase as well as the increasing temperature.Adsorption equilibrium data were fitted by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models,and the Langmuir isotherm model performed better for describing the whole adsorption process on the column.The monolayer saturation adsorption capacity of Z-ligustilide is in the range of 3.0 × 10^(-4) mg·cm^(-3) to5.5 × 10^(-4) mg·cm^(-3) with an average value of 4.0 × 10^(-4) mg·cm^(-3).

Adsorption equilibria of paeoniflorin and albiflorin on cyano-silica column from supercritical carbon dioxide/ethanol

Adsorption equilibria of paeoniflorin and albiflorin on a cyano-silica column(CN column) from the solution of supercritical carbon dioxide(scCO2) modified with ethanol were studied. The adsorption capacity at 308.15 K,313.15 K, 318.15 K and 323.15 K under pressures corresponding to carbon dioxide/ethanol densities from0.347 g·cm^-3 to 0.662 g·cm^-3 were determined using the elution by characteristic point method(ECP). The effects of temperature and pressure on the solute loading were investigated. The results showed that the lower the temperature, the higher the adsorption capacity. With the decrease of density of scCO2, the adsorption capacity strengthens. The maximum adsorption capacity of paeoniflorin(albiflorin) on the CN column was15.24 mg·ml^-1(31.14 mg·ml^-1) in the range of 0–1.84 mg·ml^-1(0–1.67 mg·ml^-1) of paeoniflorin(albiflorin)standard solution. The adsorption capacity of albiflorin was twice as much as that of paeoniflorin under the same conditions. Adsorption data of paeoniflorin and albiflorin could be well described by the Langmuir model and Freundlich model. Compared with the two model fitting results, the adsorption of paeoniflorin and albiflorin belonged to the monolayer adsorption under conditions of 308.15–323.15 K and 10–17 MPa.

Methylene Blue Removal from Aqueous Solution by Adsorption on Archidendron jiringa Seed Shells

A study of batch and column adsorption using A. jiringa seed shell as a natural adsorbent to remove methylene blue from aqueous solution was carried out. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of A. jiringa seed shell in removing methylene blue as well as to determine the isotherm and adsorption kinetics of methylene blue by A. jiringa seed shells. Parameters in the batch study showed optimum pH for adsorption was at pH 7 with the optimum contact time of 60 minutes whereas the adsorbent dose obtained was 12 g/l. The percentage removal of methylene blue increased with elevated temperature while the ionic strength reduced the adsorption capacity in the dye uptake. Langmuir isotherm was suitable for this study rather than Freundlich model due to the higher regression value: R2 = 0.9999. The most suitable kinetic model for this study was the pseudo second order, compared to pseudo first order, Elovich and intra particle with the value of regression: R2 = 0.9158. This column adsorption study used several different flow rates: 15 mL/min, 18 mL/min, 21 mL/min, 24 mL/min and 27 mL/min for 75 minutes long. The breakthrough time was lesser: 10 minutes in higher flow rates (24 mL/min and 27 mL/min), which indicated the shorter time for the adsorbent to be saturated. Thomas and Yoon & Nelson’s models were proven to be more suitable compared to Bohart-Adams model for the fixed bed adsorption study.

Adsorption of the Enantiomers of Tryptophan on Stationary Phase Bonded with Bovine Serum Albumin

Frontal analysis is frequently applied to measuring single or multi-component adsorption isotherms. In this work, the competitive adsorption isotherm data of two enantiomers of tryptophan were obtained by competitive frontal analysis. The stationary phase in the column was silica-immobilized bovine serum albumin (BSA) by the derivative method, and the mobile phase was a phosphate buffer. These isotherm data were fitted by the competitive Bilangmuir model. This model can account for the behavior of both tryptophan enantiomers and these profiles were found to fit the experimental band profiles (square error is 0.999 6). The parameters obtained were used in numerical calculations to predict the band profiles of the racemic mixtures of tryptophan. The equilibrium-dispersive model provides satisfactory prediction, with minor differences between the calculated and the experimental profiles.

Soils Developed from Dolomitic Shale in the Yichang Area, China and Adsorption Characteristics for Phenol

Recently, the problem of phenolic organics pollution has become increasingly serious. More and more strategies have been developed to remove phenolic organics from water, including oxidation, adsorption, chemical precipitation, etc. Among them, adsorption technology has attracted great attention due to its advantages of high efficiency, simplicity and easy operation. In this study, the natural shale soil without any modification was directly used as adsorbent to remove phenol from aqueous solutions. The shale soil samples were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. Detailed kinetics and isotherm studies of phenol adsorption onto shale were investigated. According to the results of the orthogonal test, the influence degree of the four factors on the removal of phenol by soil samples was operating temperature > adsorbent dosage > contact time > pH. The adsorption kinetics of phenols by the soil corresponded with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Thermodynamic studies indicated that Freundlich adsorption isotherm model could better describe phenol removal characteristics than Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. And the maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 9.68 mg/g for phenol. It is concluded that shale soil without any modification or activated methods could be employed as a low-cost alternative adsorbent for wastewater treatment.

Urban Wastewater Treatment by Adsorption of Organic Matters on Modified Bentonite by(Iron-Aluminum)

In this research, the natural bentonite clay (from Maghnia, western Algeria) was purified (Na+- montmorillonite, CEC = 91 meq/100 g), noted (puri.bent) and modified with mixed hydroxy-Fe-Al (FeAl-PILC). The purified bentonite clay and FeAl-PILC were heated at 383 K for 2 hr and characte-rized by the chemical analyses data, XRD, and N2 adsorption to 77 K techniques. Puri.bent and FeAl-PILC were applied to fix the organic matter (OM) present in urban wastewater from the city of Sidi Bel-Abbes (western Algeria). The adsorption of organic matter was followed by spectro-photometry at 470 nm, and the adsorption data were a good fit with Freundlich isotherm for pu-ri.bent but for FeA-lPILC, were well fit by Elovitch isotherm model. The maximum adsorption ca-pacity (qm) was 571.6 mg/g for puri.bent and 1120.69 mg/g for FeAl-PLC. The degree of OM removal was 67% for puri.bent and 97% for FeAl-PILC. FeAl-PILC can be considered as a promising adsorbent for the removal of OM from wastewater.

高岭土对含有Cu^(2+)和Pb^(2+)污水吸附性实验

这是一篇环境工程领域的论文。为了研究高岭土对含有Cu^(2+)和Pb^(2+)污水吸附性能的影响,开展了不同初始浓度、温度、吸附时间、高岭土掺量和pH值作用下高岭土吸附重金属离子实验,并分析了高岭土对Cu^(2+)和Pb^(2+)共同吸附实验结果。结果表明:高岭土吸附金属Pb^(2+)离子的效果要好于高岭土吸附金属Cu^(2+)离子的效果。结合实验结果和经济效益而言,在初始浓度为200 mg/L,pH值为6、温度为30℃,高岭土掺量为1.5 g,吸附时间为2.0 h时,高岭土对金属Pb^(2+)和Cu^(2+)离子的吸附效果较优,其中金属Pb^(2+)离子的吸附量分别达到了56.38、56.22、58.76、35.75、和42.42 mg/g,金属Cu^(2+)离子的吸附量45.99、47.45、47.27、25.26、22.52 mg/g。整体上,高岭土对共同吸附金属离子(Cu^(2+)、Pb^(2+))的吸附量要小于单一离子的吸附量,这是由于两个金属离子在吸附过程中会相互影响对方的吸附过程。Langmuir模型对实验曲线的拟合度要远远高于Freundlich模型对实验曲线的拟合度,这就说明了Langmuir等温吸附模型更加适用于高岭土吸附金属离子吸附量的变化规律,进而证明了高岭土吸附重金属离子属于表面吸附,被吸附的重金属离子都是相互独立存在的。

电化学方法下的聚β-环糊精吸附苯胺特征

聚β-环糊精(聚β-CD)是通过电化学合成法制备的一形状类似β-环糊精(β-CD)锥筒型的β-环糊精聚合物。苯胺是一种危害较大的环境污染物之一,聚β-CD包合吸附苯胺(An)的机制研究对今后聚β-CD去除苯胺具有重要的意义。在298.15~323.15 K的温度范围内,以电聚合法合成的聚β-CD/聚苯胺(PANI)复合材料的荷电量为吸附量,通过6种吸附等温模型(Langmuir、Freundlich、Langmuir-Freundlich、Temkin、Henry和BET)和4种动力学方程(准一级动力学、准二级动力学、颗粒内扩散及Elovich方程)的拟合,考察了聚β-CD包合吸附苯胺过程中的等温模型及其吸附动力学特征。结果显示,在此温度范围内,Langmuir-Freundlich、Temkin等温吸附模型适合描述聚环糊精对苯胺的包合吸附,说明聚β-CD包合苯胺是单分子层与多分子层吸附共存,且其吸附热与温度呈线性关系,吸附热随表面覆盖率增加而下降;准一级动力学模型更适合模拟聚β-CD包合吸附苯胺的反应过程,表明聚β-CD包合吸附苯胺以物理吸附为主,因此聚β-CD可以应用于苯胺的去除。
