다분자흡착층에서의 흡착이론을 고려한다. 사용된 다분자흡착층 모형이 매우 간단한 것임에도 불구하고, 이로부터 유도된 흡착등온식은 실리카겔 기판상의 $Br_2$ 기체의 흡착과 같은 비포화흡착현상을 정성적으로 잘 설명하고 있다.

조성이 다른 3곳 갯벌과 적조구제를 위해 사용되는 2곳의 황토를 이용해 금속 (Cu, Cd 및 Pb)의 흡착 kinetic을 밝히고, nonlinear regression model을 이용하여 구한 흡착속도와 갯벌의 조성과의 관계를 평가해 보았다. 중금속흡착에 영향을 주는 갯벌이나 황토의 조성 중에서 강열 감량 (I.L.), 산화철${\cdot}$망간${\cdot}$알루미늄의 함량은 황토가 갯벌보다 $1.5{\~}6$배 높았다. 하지만 니질의 함량은 어은리 갯벌이 다른 시료보다 $4{\~}50$배 많았다. 중금속흡착은 초기 30분 동안에 매우 빠르게 일어났다. 이때 흡착량은 Cu, Cd과 Pb이 각각 $4.1{\~}14.7\;{\mu}g/g,\;42.8{\~}16.7\;{\mu}g/g$ 그리고 $43.3{\~}101.7 {\mu}g/g$으로 3시간 실험 후 총 누적흡착량의 $8{\~}70{\%},\;18{\~}31{\%}$ 그리고 $19{\~}52{\%}$이었다. 흡착실험시 초기 금속농도를 동일 (약$ 0.5{\times}10^(-5)M$)하게 하여 운전한 결과 흡착량은 Pb>Cu>Cd 순으로 많았다. 중금속의 흡착 kinetic은 one-site kinetic model로 표현할 수 있었다. 특히 구리의 경우 non-linear model로 계산된 흡착속도 (Ka)와 3개 갯벌의 I.L., 산화알루미늄 및 니질 함량 사이에는 $R^2=-0.88{\~}-0.99$의 역 상관관계를 나타내었다.

One of the methods of removing cyanide from wastewater is surface adsorption. We simulated the removal of cyanide from a synthetic wastewater in the presence of Titanium dioxide nano-particles absorbent uses VISUAL MINTEQ 3.1 software. Our aim was to determine the factors affecting the adsorption of cyanide from synthetic wastewater applying simulation. Synthetic wastewater with a concentration of 100 mg/l of potassium cyanide was used for simulation. The amount of titanium dioxide was 1 g/l under the temperature of $25^{\circ}C$. The simulation was performed using an adsorption model of Freundlich and constant capacitance model. The results of simulation indicated that three factors including pH, nanoparticles of titanium dioxide and the primary concentration of cyanide affect the adsorption level of cyanide. The simulation and experimental results had a good agreement. Also by increasing the pH level of adsorption increases 11 units and then almost did not change. An increase in cyanide concentration, the adsorption level was decreased. In simulation process, rising the concentrations of titanium dioxide nanoparticles to 1 g/l, the rate of adsorption was increased and afterward no any change was observed. In all cases, the coefficient of determination between the experimental data and simulation data was above 0.9.

The possibility of using carica papaya leaf powder for removal of copper from wastewater as a low cost adsorbent was explored. Different parameters that affect the adsorption process like initial concentration of metal ion, time of contact, adsorbent quantity and pH were evaluated and the outcome of the study was tested using adsorption isotherm models. A maximum of 90%-94.1% copper removal was possible from wastewater having low concentration of the metal using papaya leaf powder under optimum conditions by conducting experimental studies. The biosorption of copper ion was influenced by pH and outcome of experimental results indicate the optimum pH as 7.0 for maximum copper removal. Copper distribution between the solid and liquid phases in batch studies was described by isotherms like Langmuir adsorption and Freundlich models. The adsorption process was better represented by the Freundlich isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity of copper was measured to be 24.51 mg/g through the Langmuir model. Pseudo-second order rate equation was better suited for the adsorption process. A dynamic mode study was also conducted to analyse the ability of papaya leaf powder to remove copper (II) ions from aqueous solution and the breakthrough curve was described by an S profile. Present study revealed that papaya leaf powder can be used for the removal of copper from the wastewater and low cost water treatment techniques can be developed using this adsorbent.

Adsorption kinetics of aqueous ferric ion ($Fe^{3+}$) onto bio-natural rice grains (BRG) have been studied in a batch system. The influence of contact time (0-180 minutes), the dosage of BRG adsorbent (10, 20, 40, and $60gL^{-1}$), and ambient temperature (27, 37, 47, and $57^{\circ}C$) for the adsorption system have been reported. The equilibrium time achieved after 20 minutes of adsorption contact time. The maximum removal of ferric ion is 99% by using $60gL^{-1}$ of BRG, $T=37^{\circ}C$, and $50mgL^{-1}$ ferric ion solution. Adsorption kinetic and diffusion models, such as pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order, and Weber-Morris intra-particle diffusion model, have been used to describe the adsorption rate and mechanism of the ferric ion onto BRG surface. The sorption data results are fitted by Lagergren pseudo-second order model ($R^2=1.0$). The kinetic parameters, rate constant, and sorption capacities have been calculated. The new information in this study suggests that BRG could adsorb ferric ion from water physiosorption during the first 5 minutes. Afterward, the electrostatic interaction between ferric ion and BGR-surface could take place as a very weak chemisorptions process. Thus, there is no significant change could be noticed in the FTIR spectra after adsorption. I recommend producing BGR as a bio-natural filtering material for removing the ferric ion from water.

As a feasibility study for the application of carbon nanotubes to the treatment of environmental pollutants, the adsorption characteristics of humic acid on carbon nanotubes has been investigated. The dispersion features of carbon nanotubes in aquatic environment were investigated by measuring the variation of their electrokinetic potentials with pH, and the effects of some dispersants on their dispersion features were also examined. Under the experimental conditions, humic acid was observed to mostly adsorb on nanotubes within a few minutes and reach the equilibrium state within about one hour. The adsorption features of humic acid on nanotubes were found to follow the Freundlich model better than the Langmuir Model. Humic acid adsorbed on carbon nanotubes endothermically and the change of enthalpy in adsorption reaction was estimated to be ca. 18.37kJ/mol at standard state. The entropic change in adsorption reaction for humic acid was ca. 0.0503kJ/mol at standard state and the activation energy for adsorption was also estimated based on the change of rate constants with temperature. FT-IR investigations showed that the functional groups such as alcohol, ester, and aromatics existing in the chemical structure of humic acid might work as the bridge in its adsorption on nanotubes.

Sodium alginate and chitosan are added to a $CaCl_2$ solution to prepare calcium-alginate-chitosan and calciumalginate gels. After dehydration through stoving, two types of adsorbent particles are obtained. The adsorption process of the particles obtained for low concentrations of $Sr^{2+}$ satisfies a second-order kinetic equation and the Freundlich adsorption model. The thermodynamic behaviors of the particles indicate that adsorption occurs via a spontaneous physical process. XPS pattern analysis is used to demonstrate the adsorption of $Sr^{2+}$ by calcium alginate and chitosan. By building an interaction model of the molecules of chitosan and alginate with $Ca^{2+}$ and $Sr^{2+}$ to calculate energy parameters, Fukui index, Mulliken charge, and Mulliken population, adsorption of $Sr^{2+}$ on the molecular chains of chitosan as well as the boundary of calcium-alginate-chitosan is observed to show weak stability; by contrast, adsorption between molecular chains is high.

The adsorption characteristics of mixed heavy metals (Cr(III), As(VI)) in aqueous solution were investigated using a sediment amendment composite. Sediment amendment composite was composed of clean sediment (40%), zeolite (20%), recycled aggregate (10%), steel slag (10%), oyster shell (10%), and cement (10%). The experimental results showed that the adsorption equilibrium was attained after 180 mins. Heavy metal adsorption was characterized using Freundlich and Langmuir equations. The equilibrium adsorption data for the sediment amendment composite better fitted with the Langmuir model than the Freundlich model. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) (36.07 mg/g) was higher than As(III) (25.54 mg/g); and the adsorption efficiency of the Cr(VI) and As(III) ions solution decreased with decreasing pH from 2 to 10. The collective results suggested that the sediment amendment composite is a promising material for a reactive cap that controls the release of Cr(VI) and As(III) from contaminated sediments.

활성탄에 의해 수용액으로부터 acid blue 40을 흡착하는 과정을 통해 흡착평형, 동력학 및 열역학적 특성을 활성탄 양, pH, 온도, 접촉시간, 초기농도를 함수로 해서 알아내고자 하였다. 활성탄에 대한 acid blue 40의 흡착에 대한 pH별 흡착특성은 Sulfonate ion($SO_3{^-}$)과 amine ion($NH_2{^+}$)의 존재 때문에 pH 3과 pH 11에서 흡착률이 높아지는 욕조현상을 나타내었다. 활성탄에 대한 Acid Blue 40의 흡착평형관계를 흡착등온식에 적용해본 결과 Langmuir 식이 Freundlich 식과 Temkin 식보다 더 잘 맞는 것으로 나타났다. Langmuir 식과 Freundlich 식의 분리계수로 부터 활성탄에 의한 Acid Blue 40의 흡착처리가 유효한 흡착공정이 될 수 있음을 알았다. Temkin 식에 의해 구한 흡착에너지 값으로부터 흡착공정이 물리흡착공정이라는 것을 알았다. 활성탄에 대한 acid blue 40의 흡착공정에 대한 동력학적 해석을 통해 반응속도식의 적용결과는 유사이차반응속도식이 유사일차반응속도식에 비해 일치도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 평가된 활성화 에너지 값은 42.308 kJ/mol이었으며, 엔탈피변화는 80.088 J/mol로 흡열반응의 특성을 가지는 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 자유에너지변화가 -0.0553~-5.5855 kJ/mol로 온도가 올라갈수록 흡착공정의 자발성이 더 높아진다는 것을 알았다.

Adsorption of heavy metals by sawdust was investigated to evaluate the effectiveness of using sawdust to remove heavy metals from aqueous solutions. Kinetic and isotherm studies were carried out by considering the effects of initial concentration and pH. The adsorption isotherms of heavy metals fitted the Langmuir or Freundlich model reasonably well. The adsorption capacity of metal was in the order $Pb^{2+}$ > $Cu^{2+}$ > $Zn^{2+}$. A high concentration of co-existing ions such as $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ depressed the adsorption of heavy metal. Adsorption data showed that metal adsorption on sawdust follows a pseudo-second-order reaction. Kinetic studies also indicated that both surface adsorption and intraparticle diffusion were involved in metal adsorption on sawdust. Column studies prove that sawdust could be effective biosorbent for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous phase.
