Arsenic (As), a poisonous and carcinogenic heavy metal, affects human health and the
environment. Numerous technologies can remove As from drinking water. Adsorption is the …

Arsenic is a toxic element for humans and a major pollutant in drinking water. Natural and
anthropogenic sources can release As into water bodies. The countries with the greatest …

Experimental data demonstrates that the breakthrough curves of column adsorption exhibit
qualitative differences related to the size of the adsorbent particles. Standard models do not …

We develop a mathematical model for adsorption based on averaging the flow around, and
diffusion inside, adsorbent particles in a column. The model involves three coupled partial …

Lack of comprehensive general theoretical model on photocatalytic mixed-matrix-membrane
(PMMM) makes its practical application infeasible. The dynamic process involves bulk and …

Various composite conductive polymeric beads were prepared by phase inversion method
for defluoridation studies. Base polymer (polyether sulfone) was impregnated with doped …

In this study four models are developed and validated to describe the dynamic adsorption of
ammonia on zinc sulfate-doped activated carbon, ranging from simple single-scale to …

Abstract The Bohart-Adams model provides a standard expression for the breakthrough
curve of contaminant at the outlet of a packed column. It is a basic building block for analysis …

Rotating annular photo-reactor (RAPR) is the state-of-the-art solution to the global challenge
of wastewater treatment. Its widespread application needs elemental theoretical. In this …

Several natural and industrial processes involve the extraction or retention of a solute by a
fluid invading a network of channels. Examples include aquifer contamination, chemical …
