AbstractThermodynamics and kinetics of adsorption of congo red (CR) on cellulose are studied at 308–328 K. In the used concentration range of CR, interaction of CR with cellulose is exothermic and CR molecules adsorb chemically on cellulose surface. The effects of contact time, temperature and initial concentration of CR on kinetics of its adsorption on cellulose were investigated. The process proceeds according to the pseudo-second-order equation. Initial adsorption rate of adsorption is first-order in CR and the intraparticle diffusion of CR molecules within cellulose is identified as the main rate-limiting step.

Kinetics of oxidation of 1- and 2-acetylnaphthalenes by iodate in the presence of sulphuric acid in aqueous methanol has been studied. The reaction is first order with respect to both [iodate] and [acetylnaphthalene]. Solvent effect indicates a cation-dipole type of interaction in the rate limiting step. A mechanism is proposed with a slow attack of IO2+ on enol form of acetylnaphthalene forming an intermediate carbonium ion, which ultimately gives corresponding ω-hydroxyacetylnaphthalene. The higher reactivity of 2-acetyl isomer is attributed to the greater stability of the corresponding carbonium ion than that of 1-acetyl isomer.

Abstract Biochar was prepared from rabbit faeces (RFB550) at 550 °C through pyrolysis and was characterised using elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The related factors, kinetics, isothermal curves and thermodynamics of the adsorption behaviours were investigated by conducting batch experiments. The results revealed the adsorption equilibrium of rhodamine B (RhB) and Congo red (CR) onto RFB550 with initial concentrations of 30 mg · L−1 at 25 °C and 210 min, and the best adsorption was observed when the pH of the RhB and CR solutions was 3 and 5, respectively. Pseudo-second-order kinetics was the most suitable model for describing the adsorption of RhB and CR onto RFB550, indicating that the rate-limiting step was mainly chemical adsorption. The isotherm data were best described by the Freundlich model, and the adsorption process was multi-molecular layer adsorption. Thermodynamic parameters revealed the spontaneous adsorption of RhB and CR onto RFB550. According to the results of the FTIR analysis, the oxygen-containing functional groups and aromatic structures on the surface of RFB550 provided abundant adsorption sites for RhB and CR, and the adsorption mechanism was potentially related to the hydrogen bonds and π–π bonds.

Abstract In the present study, biosorption behavior of a green filamentous alga, spirogyra in its native and modified states was investigated for copper removal from an electroplating industrial effluent. For this, the effluent containing 194 mg·L−1 Cu2+ in sulfate medium was contacted with both forms of spirogyra, under the parametric variations of effluent pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time, and sorption temperature. The study revealed spirogyra as a prominent candidate for removing contaminant metal cation; however, at the same condition, biosorption capacity of modified biomass in gel form was higher than the native spirogyra. At the optimized condition with 6 g sorbent dosage treated to 100 mL effluent for 30 min at pH 6.0 and temperature 20 °C, the maximum 82.8% and 96.4% copper could be adsorbed by the native and modified spirogyra, respectively. The batch sorption data using native biomass followed pseudo-first-order kinetic; exhibiting the multilayer sorption mechanism via surface diffusion could be defined by the Freundlich model. In contrast, the sulfuric acid treated modified spirogyra followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and intra particle diffusion as the rate-limiting step.

The immediacy of the problem under study is due to the lack of data on the kinetics of polymer carrier impregnation with extraction agents. The article is aimed at obtaining the kinetic characteristics of the impregnation of a polymeric macroporous carrier—a weakly acidic cation resin with carboxyl groups—with trialkylamine and its solutions in acetone. The integral kinetic curves of the extraction agent adsorption on the carrier were obtained. This allowed estimating the time of equilibrium by the limited solution volume method. This time was 25-30 hours, decreasing with the application of a dilution agent and with the increase in temperature. The kinetic impregnation characteristics were calculated by means of the pseudo-second-order, Elovich, and internal diffusion models. The pseudo-second-order model describes the experimental kinetic data with a high correlation degree (R2 0.995-0.997) and points out that interaction with two sorption centres possibly takes place with the adsorption of a single trialkylamine molecule. The impregnation rate constants via an extraction agent were calculated using all kinetic models. Based on the apparent activation energy magnitude (37±14 kJ/mol), it can be assumed that diffusion is the rate-limiting step of the impregnation process. This article can be useful for creating impregnates containing extraction agents of various classes.

The adsorption of acid red G dye onto raw bentonite/cationic starch (RB/CS) and raw bentonite (RB) was investigated in aqueous solution in a bath system with respect to the adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherms, respectively. For RB and RB/CS composite, the kinetic data showed that the kinetics of adsorption was best described by a pseudo-second-order expression than the pseudo-first-order. Adsorption isotherms of acid red G dye onto RB and RB/CS composite were determined with common isotherm equations such as the Langmuir and Freundlich models. The results showed that for RB/CS composite, the Langmuir model agreed very well with the experimental data, whereas the RB was fitted to both Langmuir and Freundlich models. In summary, the results showed that RB/CS could be employed as low-cost materials for the removal of acid red G dye from effluents compared to RB.

The kinetics of oxidation of diethyl ether (DE) with sodium N-chloro-p-toluenesulphonamide (CAT) in hydrochloric acid solution has been studied at (313°K).The reaction rate show a first order dependence on [CAT] and fractional order dependence on each [DE] and [H+] .The variation of ionic strength of the medium has no significant effect on the reaction rate , addition of p-toluenesulphonamide (p-TSA) affects the reaction rate marginally the rate increased with decreasing dielectric constant of the medium , the stochiometry of the reaction was found to be 1:2 and oxidation products were identified , A Michaelis – Menten type mechanism has been suggested to explain the results.The equilibrium and the decomposition constants of CAT – diethyl ether complex have been evaluated. Thermodynamic parameters were computed by studying reaction at temperatures range ( 308 – 323°K) for the rate limiting step and for the observed first order constants by the linear Arrhenius plot. The mechanism proposed and the derived rate law are consistent with observed kinetics.

Kinetics of formation of 2-imino-4-thiazolidone from S-ethoxycarbonylmethylisothiouronium chloride has been studied in aqueous buffers and dilute hydrochloric acid. The reaction is subject to general base catalysis, the β value being 0.65. Its rate limiting step consists in acid-catalyzed splitting off of ethoxide ion from dipolar tetrahedral intermediate. At pH < 2 formation of this intermediate becomes rate-limiting; rate constant of its formation is 2 . 104 s-1.

The cyclization kinetics of N-(2-methylcarbonylphenyl)-N’-methylsulfonamide (IIb) into 3-methyl-(1H)-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide (Ib) has been studied in ethanolamine, morpholine, and butylamine buffers and in potassium hydroxide solution. The cyclization is subject to general base and general acid catalysis. The value of the Bronsted coefficient β is about 0.1, which indicates that splitting off of the proton from negatively charged tetrahedral intermediate represents the rate-limiting and thermodynamically favourable step. In the solutions of potassium hydroxide the cyclization of dianion of the starting ester IIb probably becomes the rate-limiting step.

Abstract Commercial Granulated Active Carbon (GAC) has been modified using 10 Gy dose Gamma irradiation (GAC10 Gy) for increasing its ability of air purification. Both, the raw and treated samples were applied for removing Chlorpyrifos pesticide (CPF) from ambient midair. Physicochemical properties of the two materials were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and Raman spectroscopy. The phase formation and microstructure were monitored using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), supported with Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX). The Surface area measurement was detected using BET particle size prosometry. Obtained outcomes showed that, the maximum adsorption capacity, given by Langmuir equations, was greatly increased from 172.712 to 272.480 mg/g for GAC and GAC10 Gy, respectively, with high selectivity. The overall removal efficiency of GAC10 Gy was notably comparable to that of the original GAC-sorbent. The present study indicated that, gamma irradiation could be a promising technique for treating GAC and turned it more active in eliminating the pesticides pollutants from surrounding air. The data of equilibrium has been analyzed by Langmuir and Freundlich models, that were considerably better suited for the investigated materials than other models. The process kinetics of CPF adsorbed onto both tested carbon versions were found to obey the pseudo first order at all concentrations with an exception at 70 mg/l using GAC, where, the spontaneous exothermic adsorption of Chlorpyrifos is a strong function for the pseudo-first order (PFO) and pseudo second order (PSO) kinetics.
