Abstract Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) contaminations are disturbing environmental issues,
which cause serious harm to aqueous systems and human health. Therefore, removing …

The kinetic models were widely used to analyze the dynamic adsorption behaviors in a
batch system and reveal the mass-transfer mechanisms. The previous review papers were …

The past decade has seen a boom in environmental adsorption studies on the adsorptive
removal of pollutants from the aqueous phase. A large majority of works treat kinetic …

One of the first reported equations to describe adsorption at equilibrium is the Langmuir
model (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1918, 40, 1361–1403). Initially, the model was used to describe …

One of the most serious environmental problems is the existence of hazardous and toxic
pollutants in industrial wastewaters. The major hindrance is the simultaneous existence of …

Due to population growth and global warming, water treatment is required. In this study, we
investigated the characterization, examination, and adsorption capacity of sodium alginate …

In this study, sodium alginate was employed as a starting material for preparing two kinds of
biocompatible adsorbents, including calcium alginate hydrogel beads and magnetic …

Adsorption is an important phenomenon, underlying a number of processes of great
environmental and technological significance. The vital role of adsorption in industry and …

In this study nanoporous metal organic framework (MOF-5) was synthesized as the copper
ion (Cu 2+) adsorbent. The morphology and structure of the obtained adsorbent were …

During the years, adsorption has garnered considerable attention being one of the most cost-
effective and efficient methods for separating contaminants out of liquid phase. A …
