The electronic and adsorption structures of Mg and p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (p-TBCA) adsorbed onto a Ge(100) surface under a variety of sample conditions were characterized using high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy (HRPES) and their corresponding DFT calculation results. Interestingly, after 0.10 ML p-TBCA molecules had been adsorbed onto a Ge(100) surface, subsequent adsorption of a small amount of metallic Mg (~0.10 ML) resulted in the formation of a capped structure inside the pre-adsorbed p-TBCA molecules. The adsorption structures resulting from further deposition of Mg (~0.50 ML) onto the Ge(100) surface were monitored based on the surface charge state and Mg 2s core level spectrum. Work function measurements clearly indicated the electronic structures of the Mg and p-TBCA adsorbed onto the Ge(100) surface. Moreover, we confirmed that three different adsorption structures are experimentally favorable at room temperature through DFT calculation results.

This study was undertaken to judge the quality of air-tightened exhibition cases and to predict the dynamic variation of the relative humidity in the showcase. We performed a lot of experiments for the a few conditions and we numerically calculated the air change rate and the relative humidity in the showcase with the Artsorb under the same conditions. In all cases we confirmed that the numerical results about the relative humidity in the showcase had a good agreement with the experimental ones. Through the experiments of humidity control, we found out that the adsorption efficiency is varied with the location and the amount of the Artsorb. And the numerical results showed that the adsorption material is always needed to keep on the appropriate humidity condition in the showcase even though any kind of the showcases are used.

Adsorption and desorption characteristics of methyl iodide at high temperature conditions up to $250^{\circ}C$ by TEDA-impregnated activated carbon, which is used for radioiodine retention in nuclear facility, was experimentally evaluated. In the range of temperature from $30^{\circ}C$ to $250^{\circ}C$, the adsorption capacity of base activated carbon decreased sharply with increasing temperature but that of TEDA-impregnated activated carbon showed higher value even at high temperature ranges. Especially, the desorption amount of methyl iodide on TEDA-impregnated carbon represented lower value than that on unimpregnated carbon. The breakthrough curves of methyl iodide in the fixed bed packed with base carbon and TEDA-impregnated activated carbon at high temperature were compared. TEDA-impregnated activated carbon would be applicable to adsorption process up to $150^{\circ}C$ for the removal of radioiodine in a nuclear facility.

Adsorption capacities of toxic heavy metal ions using as-received carbon(AC), single and double surface-modified activated carbon(OAC and DSMC) in wide pH ranges are extensively evaluated. Physical and chemical properties of surface-modified activated carbons are evaluated through BET analysis, surface acidity and oxides measurements. Based oil tile adsorption isotherms of Pb, Cd and Cr ions by AC, OAC and DSMC, the adsorption amount on DSMC was obviously higher than that on the other carbons. Breakthrough behaviors of ternary metal ions in a column packed with three kinds of carbon were also characterized with respect to the variations of the influent pH and concentration. The adsorption capacity of DSMC in a fixed bed stood a favorable comparison with that of as-received carbon.

The adsorption characteristics of methyl iodide generated from the simulated off-gas stream on various adsorbents such as silver ion-exchanged zeolite (AgX), zeocarbon and activated carbon were investigated. An extensive evaluation was made on the optimal silver ion-exchanged level for the effective removal of methyl iodide at temperature up to 38$0^{\circ}C$. The degree of adsorption efficiency of methyl iodide on silver ion-exchanged zeolite is strongly dependent of silver ion-amount and process temperature. The influence of temperature, methyl iodide concentration and silver ion-exchanged level on the adsorption efficiency is closely related to the pore characteristics of adsorbents. It would be facts that the effective silver ion-exchanged level was about 10 wt%, based on the degree of silver utilization for the removal of methyl iodide.

This paper discuss the adsorption and fluidity properties of recycled cement powder with different hydration hysteresis and particle size. Reactivity of hydrated fine powder was negligible low. Therefore, the adsorption and fluidity properties with super-plasticizer for hydrated recycled cement powder was very important for using additive material. Adsorption amount of super-plasticizer was increased by the finer hydrated recycled cement powder addition. And the fluidity of hydrated recycled cement powder was very poor than un-hydrated cement powder. To Improve the fluidity of hydrated recycled cement powder, PC super-plasticizer is the more effective than NS super-plasticizer.

A study on the removal of mercury by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aureobasidium pullulans was done, in which the model of adsorption isotherm and adsorption rate was proposed. The adsorption isotherm of mercury by S. cerevisiae was accorded with Langmuir model but A. pullulans was followed to Freundlich model. The amount of mercury removed by A. pullulans was higher than that of S. cerevisiae, but the adsorption rate of mercury by A. pullulans was slower than that of S. cerevisiae. In a rapid adsorption process, therefore, it is more useful to use S. cerevisiae as a biosobent.

Adsorption characteristics of glass fibers, obtained from the spent lithium primary batteries recycling process, were investigated for the removal of Acid Red 27 dye from aqueous solution. The batch data clearly showed that increasing the initial sorptive concentration apparently enhanced the amount adsorbed and the uptake process followed the pseudo-second order rate model. The equilibrium adsorption data at different initial sorptive concentrations were fitted well to Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms. Moreover, the increase in temperature, favored the uptake of dye on this solid, indicated the process was endothermic in nature. Further, using the temperature dependence sorption data obtained at different temperatures was used to estimate various thermodynamic parameters.

Synthesized hydroxyapatite (Hyd) and Fe-hydroxyapatite (Fe-Hyd) composite were used for the removal of Methylene Blue (MB) from aqueous solutions in this study. The effect of adsorbent amount, pH and initial MB concentration were carried out to investigate in the aqueous solution. The kinetic study shows that the MB adsorption process with Hyd or Fe-Hyd follow pseudo-second order kinetic model. Experimental results are well fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacities of Hyd and Fe-Hyd were obtained as 2.90 mg/g and 5.64 mg/g for MB according to Langmuir Isotherm models, respectively. Fe-Hyd composite increased the adsorption capacity of Hyd by 1.95 times that Hyd. It is concluded that Fe-Hyd composite is promising and economical adsorbent for MB removal in the aqueous solution.

UiO-66 particles were synthesized under various synthesis conditions to study the adsorption of carbon dioxide for hydrogen purification. For the purpose, the design and analysis of experiments was performed using statistical design of experiment method. As the synthesis time, temperature and acetic acid amount increased, the crystallinity of UiO-66 particles increased. Especially, the amount of acetic acid was confirmed as an important factor in determining the crystallinity of the particles. The specific surface area of the particles measured by the nitrogen adsorption method also showed a similar tendency. Using the general factor analysis in the experimental design method, the main effects and interactions of major factors were analyzed. In addition, the carbon dioxide adsorption capacity was predicted using a nonlinear regression method. Then, the adsorption performance was shown through surface and contour maps for all ranges.
