Adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamics of the adsorption process were explored. Equilibrium data were fitted into Langmuir and Freundlich equations, and the result reveals that the Freundlich isotherm model fits better than the Langmuir model. Three simplified kinetic models： pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intrapartiele diffusion equations were adopted to examine the mechanism of the adsorption process, and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model proved to be the best in describing the adsorption data. The thermodynamic parameters of the adsorption process were estimated, showing that the adsorption of 2,4-DCP was exothermic and spontaneous, and the adsorption studied in this paper can be assigned to a physisorption mechanism.展开更多

Equilibrium data were obtained in the concentration range 50-1,200 mg·L-1 of ammonium and used in the estimation of thermodynamic parameters. Freundlich＇s isotherm model was found as with the best adjustment to equilibrium data at 25, 45 and 55℃, whereas, Redlich-Peterson＇s model had a better performance at 35 ℃. A discontinuous and unusual behavior was observed on adsorption capacity of the zeolite, with an increase from 25 ℃ to 35 ℃ followed by a decrease from 35℃ to 55 ℃. K0 values presented differences that reached up to 105 from one methodology to other. Depending on the method considered, AS results indicated both increase or decrease in system degree of disorder and △G indicated both physisorption or chemisorption process, proving the poor correlation between the estimation proceedings of such important data. The results from Gaines and Thomas method were recognized as the most correlated to calorimetric studies, as well as to equilibrium data and observations related to system entropy.展开更多

The proposed model as indicated in the results shows a better prediction of the experimental results compared with two others.展开更多

The kinetic and adsorption isotherm of the process could be well described by mathematical models. Chemical modification experiments and Fourier transform infrared spectra indicated that carboxyl and amine groups were the important functional groups for adsorption of Cd. The maximum contribution of physical adsorption in the overall adsorption process was evaluated as 5.5%. These results indicated that chemisorption was the dominating mechanism of Cd biosorption by C.reinhardtii.展开更多
