The utilisation of magnetic biosorbents (metal or metal nanoparticles impregnated onto
biosorbents) has attracted increasing research attention due to their manipulable active …

Arsenic's history in science, medicine and technology has been overshadowed by its
notoriety as a poison in homicides. Arsenic is viewed as being synonymous with toxicity …

In the present work, we analyzed the linear and nonlinear model suitabilities for adsorption
data from aqueous As (III) removal by manganese ferrite nanoparticles (NPs). Hence, As (III) …

A literature review of the use of sorbents and biosorbents to treat polluted aqueous effluents
containing dyes/organics or metal ions has been conducted. Over 70 systems have been …

The sorption of two dyes, namely, Basic Blue 69 and Acid Blue 25 onto peat has been
studied in terms of pseudo-second order and first order mechanisms for chemical sorption …

A comparison of kinetic models describing the sorption of pollutants has been reviewed. The
rate models evaluated include the Elovich equation, the pseudo-first order equation and the …

This study presents a literature review concerning the preciseness of over 170 publications
citing the original Lagergren's paper in kinetics equation for solute adsorption on various …

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are lamellar mixed hydroxides containing positively
charged main layers and undergoing anion exchange chemistry. In recent years, many …

A review of the mechanisms of solute sorption onto various biosorbents has been
performed. The mechanisms have been subdivided into reaction based systems and …

Because of its toxicity, arsenic is of considerable environmental concern. Its solubility in
natural systems is strongly influenced by adsorption at iron oxide surfaces. The objective of …
