Since the introduction of pseudo-second-order (PSO) model for the description of adsorption
kinetics in 1999, it has been widely applied in liquid-phase adsorption systems. An …

The recyclability of carbon nanotube (CNT) sponges in terms of oil absorption was studied.
The sorption capacities of these sponges are greater than 100 gg–1 for many organics and …

In the present study, activated clay was used as adsorbent for the kinetics of 2, 4, 6-
trichlorophenol (TCP) adsorption from aqueous solution in a batch system. Experiments …

This study aimed to describe the adsorption of three pharmaceuticals compounds
(ibuprofen, naproxen and carbamazepine) onto natural clay on the basis of equilibrium …

Sorption capacity as well as sorption kinetics of oil onto four different expanded perlites with
different physical and surface properties were studied. In order to meticulously measure the …

A series of organic sensitizers with the direct electron injection mechanism and a high molar
extinction coefficient comprising double donors, a π-spacer, and anchoring acceptor groups …

The article describes the performance of acid activated jute stick char (AAJSC) for the
adsorption of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) from aqueous solution in batch mode. Jute stick, a bulk …

The present work describes the fabrication of superhydrophobic and superoleophilic
reduced graphene oxide-coated cotton (rGO@ cotton) by a facile one-step hydrothermal …

Biochar from sugarcane baggase was prepared by heating at high temperature for 20 min.
Surface properties of the biochar were determined by Boehm titrations and FTIR. Biochar …

Oil spills in the sea have caused many serious environmental problems worldwide. In this
study, carbon nanotube (CNT) sponges were used to cleanup oil slicks on sea waters. This …
