To further investigate the influence of pore structure on its adsorption performance, two SBA-15 samples with different microspores were also selected. It is shown that microporous material NaY has the largest adsorption capacity of 0.2873 mL/g, and the amorphous SiO2 exhibits the least capacity of 0.1003 mL/g. MCM-41 also shows a lower break through capacity in spite of the relatively small pore diameter, because it can not provide the necessary small geometric confinement for the tiny adsorbates. However, the mesoporous SBA-15 silica with certain micropore volume shows relatively higher adsorption capacity than that of MCM-41 silica. The presence of micropores directly leads to an increase in the dynamic adsorption capacity of toluene. Although NaY has the highest adsorption capacity for toluene, its complete desorption temperature for toluene is high (〉 350°C), which limits its wide application. On the contrary, mesoporous silica materials exhibits a good desorption performance for volatile organic compounds at lower temperatures. Among these materials mesoporous SBA-15 samples, with a larger amount micropores and a lower desorption temperature, are a potentially interesting adsorbent for the removal of volatile organic compounds. This behavior should been related with the best synergetic effect of mesopores and micropores.展开更多

The relative humidity (RH) of exhaust gas is normally >60% and is supersaturated. Maintaining the property of adsorbent on VOCs in a highly humid gas stream is a serious industrial problem. In this study, the adsorption/desorption behavior of toluene in a micro-mesoporous polymeric resin was investigated in a highly humid environment to explore the influence of abound water vapor on resin adsorption and regeneration. This resin could selectively adsorb toluene at an RH of 80%, and its adsorption property was unaffected by the presence of water vapor. In the case of humidity saturation, the resin displayed a high adsorption capacity at a moisture content of <30%. Therefore, the polymer resin is an excellent water-resistant adsorbent of VOCs. In the regenerative experiment, the resin maintained its original adsorption capability after four adsorption/ desorption cycles of toluene purging with nitrogen gas at 120℃. The resin exhibited excellent regeneration performance at high humidity.展开更多

The characteristics of diffusion in nano-scale pores in matrix and desorption on the matrix surface were both considered in the improved differential equations for seepage flow. By integrating the Langmuir isotherm desorption items into the new total dimensionless compression coefficient in matrix, the transport function and seepage flow could be formalized, simplified and consistent with the conventional form of diffusion equation. Furthermore, by utilizing the Laplace change and Sethfest inversion changes, the calculated results were obtained and further discussions indicated that transfer mechanisms were influenced by diffusion, adsorption/desorption. The research shows that when the matrix permeability is closed to magnitude of 10^-9D, the matrix flow only occurs near the surfacial matrix; as to the actual production, the central matrix blocks are barely involved in the production; the closer to the surface of matrix, the lower the pressure is and the more obvious the diffusion effect is; the behavior of adsorption/desorption can increase the matrix flow rate significantly and slow down the pressure of horizontal well obviously.展开更多

This new adsorbent could adsorb a large quantity of oxygen in the temperature range of 200-370 °C. Adsorbed oxygen could be released by raising temperature over 400 °C or by switching the atmosphere from oxygen to nitrogen. This oxygen adsorption and desorption process had good reproducibility. Taking advantage of this unique oxygen intake/release behavior, a nitrogen purification process was investigated. The results showed that YBaCo4O7+δ material was a promising candidate for the oxygen sorption process and could be used to produce high-purity nitrogen or to remove trace oxygen from other gases.展开更多

The adsorption energy is found to be 0.19eV from the surface tem- perature dependence of the adsorption time. This method can be extended to study the adsorption/desorption process of other alkali atoms on other surfaces of transparent substrates with an ultimate time resolution limited by the flight time of atoms in the evanescent wave which is of the order of nanoseconds.展开更多

Water vapor adsorption/desorption isotherm is a powerful tool to characterize such surfaces. The aim of this paper is to present theoretical approach for calculating roots surface parameters as adsorption energy, distribution of surface adsorption centers, as well as roots geometric and structure parameters as surface fractal dimension, nanopore sizes and size distributions on example of experimental isotherms of roots of barley taken from the literature.

Conclusions: Physicochemical surface parameters may be important for characterizing root surface properties, their changes in stress conditions, as well as for study and model plant processes. Physicochemical and geometrical properties of plant roots differ from these of the soils.展开更多

A reactive dye(red K-3B) was used as an adsorbate to investigate the adsorption behavior by static and mobile ways. The removal of reactive red K-3B was found to be initially pH and concentration dependent. Moreover, an increase of solution temperature ranging from 5℃ to 60℃ helped to enhance the rate of intraparticle diffusion of adsorbate and changes in the size of the pores of the adsorbent and thus to reduce the adsorption time. The total breakthrough adsorption capacity was 531 mg/g, and the saturated adsorption capacity was 560 mg/g, which prevailed over the activated carbons evidently. The reactive red K-3B adsorbed on AGLA could be recovered with a mixture of alcohol, NaCl and HCl aqueous solutions. The recovery percentage could reach 92.4%.展开更多

The eff ects of bed temperature, initial concentration, and feed fl ow rate on adsorption were investigated. The Yoon-Nelson model was used to fi t the toluene breakthrough curves. The length of mass transfer zone was calculated based on breakthrough curves. The Langmuir-Freundlich model fi t the adsorption isotherms of toluene on USY, which indicated that the surface of USY was heterogeneous. The adsorption isosteric heat calculated from adsorption isotherms ranged from 54.3 to 69.8 kJ/mol, indicating physical adsorption. The combined technique of temperature swing adsorption with vacuum swing adsorption (TVSA) exhibited excellent desorption performance, which was attributed to the low desorption activation energy. Under optimized TVSA conditions, the desorption rate of toluene reached 90.6% within 10 min. The long-term cyclic utilization results indicated that the adsorption capacity of USY was stable.展开更多

Results revealed that Cr(Ⅵ) absorption was enhanced and the adsorption amount for Cr(Ⅵ) increased from 155.7 to 190.8 mg/g when KCl concentration increased from 100 to 200 mg/L in the adsorption process, which was attributed to the stronger driving force. However, the adsorption amount sharply decreased to 90.2 mg/g when KCl concentration reached up to 1000 mg/L suggesting the negative effect for Cr(Ⅵ) removal that high KCl concentration had. As for the effect of BSA on ion adsorption, the amount for Cr(Ⅵ) significantly declined to 78.3 mg/g and p H was found to be an important factor contributing to this significant reduction. Then, the desorption performance was also conducted and it was obtained that the presence of KCl had negligible effect on Cr(Ⅵ) desorption, while promoted by the addition of BSA. The incomplete desorption was obtained and the residual chromium ions onto the electrode after desorption was detected via energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS). Based on above analysis, the enhanced removal mechanism for Cr(Ⅵ) in MCDI was found to be consisted of ion adsorption onto electrode surface, the redox reaction of Cr(Ⅵ) into Cr(III)and precipitation, which was demonstrated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and scanning electron microscope(SEM).展开更多

TEM, SEM and XRD analyses revealed that the TiO2 particles were an aggregation of nano-sized (approximately 10 nm) pure anatase-type TiO2. Adsorption experiments were carried out with particle concentrations of 100, 400 and 1000 mg/L, and their adsorption isotherms were found to decline successively, showing an obvious Cp effect. Desorption experiments indicated that adsorption in this system was irreversible, and the irreversibility increased with increasing Cp. These phenomena could be explained by the MEA (metastable equilibrium adsorption) theory and the Cp effect could be modeled well with an MEA-Freundlich-type Cp effect isotherm equation. This study may heln understand environmental behavior of contaminants on ultrafine natural particles.展开更多

However, theoretical explorations on such systems were greatly hindered because of the complexity in modeling solid/liquid interface and electrochemical environment. In the current work, we investigated two crucial processes in CO_(2) RR, i.e. adsorption and desorption of CO_(2) and CO at Fe-N_(4) center, with an explicit aqueous model. We used the ab initio molecular dynamics simulations associated with free energy sampling methods and electrode potential analysis to estimate the energetics under electrochemical environment, and found significant difference in aqueous solution compared with the same process in vacuum. The effect of applied electrode potential on the adsorption structures,charge transfer and free energies of both CO_(2) and CO on Fe-N-Gra was thoroughly discussed. These findings bring insights in fundamental understandings of the CO_(2) RR process under realistic conditions, and facilitate future design of efficient M-N-Gra-based CO_2 RR catalysts.展开更多

In addition, microplastics act as carriers influencing surfactant distribution. Environmental factors (pH, ionic strength, etc. ) significantly regulate this process. Current research still has limitations in areas such as desorption kinetics and combined pollution effects, necessitating in-depth studies under environmentally relevant conditions to provide a basis for risk assessment.展开更多

文摘As the fundamental unit of soil,aggregates exhibit significant variations in their abilities to adsorb and desorb trace elements,depending on their size.Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the characteristics of adsorption and desorption of cadmium(Cd),copper(Cu),and lead(Pb)on and from soil aggregate fractions from three layers of a calcareous soil profile in Changxing County,Zhejiang Prvince,China.The results showed that both Langmuir and Freundlich models successfully described the isothermal adsorption processes of single Cd,Cu,and Pb on different soil aggregates.Additionally,aggregates from the bottom soil layer showed the highest maximum adsorption capacity and required the lowest energy for Cd,Cu,and Pb adsorption compared to aggregates from upper soil layers.The physicochemical properties of soil aggregates were found to govern the adsorption and desorption processes of heavy metals rather than the aggregate size,wherein the contents of iron/aluminum oxides and organic matter were the most crucial influencing factors.Cadmium displayed higher mobility than Cu and Pb in different soil aggregates,and the maximum adsorption capacities of the metal ions followed the order of Pb>Cu>Cd,while their desorption rates followed the order of Cd>Cu>Pb.Additionally,the<0.053 mm microaggregates presented the lowest desorption rates for Cd,Cu,and Pb compared to other soil aggregate fractions in each soil layer.Furthermore,the orthogonal experiment results demonstrated that the competitive adsorption between metals occurred on soil aggregates in the ternary heavy metal system,but only the desorption of Pb was significantly affected by the coexistence of Cd and Cu.

文摘Four different types of adsorbents, SBA-15, MCM-41, NaY and SiO2, were used to study the dynamic adsorption/desorption of toluene. To further investigate the influence of pore structure on its adsorption performance, two SBA-15 samples with different microspores were also selected. It is shown that microporous material NaY has the largest adsorption capacity of 0.2873 mL/g, and the amorphous SiO2 exhibits the least capacity of 0.1003 mL/g. MCM-41 also shows a lower break through capacity in spite of the relatively small pore diameter, because it can not provide the necessary small geometric confinement for the tiny adsorbates. However, the mesoporous SBA-15 silica with certain micropore volume shows relatively higher adsorption capacity than that of MCM-41 silica. The presence of micropores directly leads to an increase in the dynamic adsorption capacity of toluene. Although NaY has the highest adsorption capacity for toluene, its complete desorption temperature for toluene is high (〉 350°C), which limits its wide application. On the contrary, mesoporous silica materials exhibits a good desorption performance for volatile organic compounds at lower temperatures. Among these materials mesoporous SBA-15 samples, with a larger amount micropores and a lower desorption temperature, are a potentially interesting adsorbent for the removal of volatile organic compounds. This behavior should been related with the best synergetic effect of mesopores and micropores.
文摘In many sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), large amounts of water vapor come from the air and the reactors. The relative humidity (RH) of exhaust gas is normally >60% and is supersaturated. Maintaining the property of adsorbent on VOCs in a highly humid gas stream is a serious industrial problem. In this study, the adsorption/desorption behavior of toluene in a micro-mesoporous polymeric resin was investigated in a highly humid environment to explore the influence of abound water vapor on resin adsorption and regeneration. This resin could selectively adsorb toluene at an RH of 80%, and its adsorption property was unaffected by the presence of water vapor. In the case of humidity saturation, the resin displayed a high adsorption capacity at a moisture content of <30%. Therefore, the polymer resin is an excellent water-resistant adsorbent of VOCs. In the regenerative experiment, the resin maintained its original adsorption capability after four adsorption/ desorption cycles of toluene purging with nitrogen gas at 120℃. The resin exhibited excellent regeneration performance at high humidity.

Physicochemical and geometrical properties of plant roots differ from these of the soils.
文摘A novel amphoteric granular lignin adsorbent(AGLA) was prepared using magnesium lignosulfonate as a raw material which was provided by a straw sulfite pulp mill in Guangdong Province, China. A reactive dye(red K-3B) was used as an adsorbate to investigate the adsorption behavior by static and mobile ways. The removal of reactive red K-3B was found to be initially pH and concentration dependent. Moreover, an increase of solution temperature ranging from 5℃ to 60℃ helped to enhance the rate of intraparticle diffusion of adsorbate and changes in the size of the pores of the adsorbent and thus to reduce the adsorption time. The total breakthrough adsorption capacity was 531 mg/g, and the saturated adsorption capacity was 560 mg/g, which prevailed over the activated carbons evidently. The reactive red K-3B adsorbed on AGLA could be recovered with a mixture of alcohol, NaCl and HCl aqueous solutions. The recovery percentage could reach 92.4%.

The combined technique of temperature swing adsorption with vacuum swing adsorption (TVSA) exhibited excellent desorption performance, which was attributed to the low desorption activation energy. Under optimized TVSA conditions, the desorption rate of toluene reached 90.6% within 10 min. The long-term cyclic utilization results indicated that the adsorption capacity of USY was stable.

Results revealed that Cr(Ⅵ) absorption was enhanced and the adsorption amount for Cr(Ⅵ) increased from 155.7 to 190.8 mg/g when KCl concentration increased from 100 to 200 mg/L in the adsorption process, which was attributed to the stronger driving force. However, the adsorption amount sharply decreased to 90.2 mg/g when KCl concentration reached up to 1000 mg/L suggesting the negative effect for Cr(Ⅵ) removal that high KCl concentration had. As for the effect of BSA on ion adsorption, the amount for Cr(Ⅵ) significantly declined to 78.3 mg/g and p H was found to be an important factor contributing to this significant reduction. Then, the desorption performance was also conducted and it was obtained that the presence of KCl had negligible effect on Cr(Ⅵ) desorption, while promoted by the addition of BSA. The incomplete desorption was obtained and the residual chromium ions onto the electrode after desorption was detected via energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS). Based on above analysis, the enhanced removal mechanism for Cr(Ⅵ) in MCDI was found to be consisted of ion adsorption onto electrode surface, the redox reaction of Cr(Ⅵ) into Cr(III)and precipitation, which was demonstrated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and scanning electron microscope(SEM).

文摘Adsorption/desorption in a new Zn(Ⅱ)-TiO2 adsorption system was investigated at different particle concentrations (Cp). TEM, SEM and XRD analyses revealed that the TiO2 particles were an aggregation of nano-sized (approximately 10 nm) pure anatase-type TiO2. Adsorption experiments were carried out with particle concentrations of 100, 400 and 1000 mg/L, and their adsorption isotherms were found to decline successively, showing an obvious Cp effect. Desorption experiments indicated that adsorption in this system was irreversible, and the irreversibility increased with increasing Cp. These phenomena could be explained by the MEA (metastable equilibrium adsorption) theory and the Cp effect could be modeled well with an MEA-Freundlich-type Cp effect isotherm equation. This study may heln understand environmental behavior of contaminants on ultrafine natural particles.

文摘Single-atom metal-nitrogen-graphene(M-N-Gra) catalysts are promising materials for electrocatalytic CO_(2) reduction reaction(CO_(2) RR). However, theoretical explorations on such systems were greatly hindered because of the complexity in modeling solid/liquid interface and electrochemical environment. In the current work, we investigated two crucial processes in CO_(2) RR, i.e. adsorption and desorption of CO_(2) and CO at Fe-N_(4) center, with an explicit aqueous model. We used the ab initio molecular dynamics simulations associated with free energy sampling methods and electrode potential analysis to estimate the energetics under electrochemical environment, and found significant difference in aqueous solution compared with the same process in vacuum. The effect of applied electrode potential on the adsorption structures,charge transfer and free energies of both CO_(2) and CO on Fe-N-Gra was thoroughly discussed. These findings bring insights in fundamental understandings of the CO_(2) RR process under realistic conditions, and facilitate future design of efficient M-N-Gra-based CO_2 RR catalysts.

文摘Microplastics loaded with phenanthrene and derivatives are widely detected in aquatic environments,and the coating of natural minerals or organic macromolecules may change the environmental behavior of microplastics.In this study,three kinds of composites with different coverage were prepared by coating goethite on the surface of polyvinyl chloride microplastics to investigate the adsorption and desorption behavior of phenanthrene(PHE)and 1-hydroxyphenanthrene(1-OHPHE),and the effect of mucin on desorption was inves-tigated.The results showed that goethite promoted the adsorption of PHE and 1-OHPHE by increasing the specific surface area of the composites.With the increase of the cover de-gree,the adsorption of PHE decreased because of the decrease in hydrophobicity;while the adsorption of 1-OHPHE initially increased and then decreased with the contributions of hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bond.The adsorption of 1-OHPHE could be influenced by the pH and ionic strength primarily through electrostatic interactions and Ca2+bridg-ing.The goethite significantly increased the desorption hysteresis for two chemicals due to the complicated pore structures and increased adsorption affinity.Mucin promoted the desorption of PHE through competitive adsorption,and inhibit the desorption of 1-OHPHE through hydrophobic interaction,hydrogen bonding and Ca2+bridging.This study elucidated the effects of natural minerals on the adsorption and desorption behavior of organic pollutants on microplastics,briefly discussed the effects of organic macromolecules on the desorption behavior of pollutants with different properties,and emphasized the different environmental behaviors of pollutants.

文摘This paper summarizes the mechanisms and environmental effects of interactions between microplastics and surfactants: surfactants adsorb onto microplastics surfaces through hydrophobic interactions and electrostatic forces, changing their surface properties and transport behavior. In addition, microplastics act as carriers influencing surfactant distribution. Environmental factors (pH, ionic strength, etc. ) significantly regulate this process. Current research still has limitations in areas such as desorption kinetics and combined pollution effects, necessitating in-depth studies under environmentally relevant conditions to provide a basis for risk assessment.

文摘Understanding the adsorption and desorption behavior of methane has received considerable attention since it is one of the crucial aspects of the exploitation of shale gas.Unexpectedly,obvious hysteresis is observed from the ideally reversible physical sorption of methane in some experiments.However,the underlying mechanism still remains an open problem.In this study,Monte Carlo(MC) and molecular dynamics(MD) simulations are carried out to explore the molecular mechanisms of adsorption/desorption hysteresis.First,a detailed analysis about the capillary condensation of methane in micropores is presented.The influence of pore width,surface strength,and temperature on the hysteresis loop is further investigated.It is found that a disappearance of hysteresis occurs above a temperature threshold.Combined with the phase diagram of methane,we explicitly point out that capillary condensation is inapplicable for the hysteresis of shale gas under normal temperature conditions.Second,a new mechanism,variation of pore throat size,is proposed and studied.For methane to pass through the throat,a certain energy is required due to the repulsive interaction.The required energy increases with shrinkage of the throat,such that the originally adsorbed methane cannot escape through the narrowed throat.These trapped methane molecules account for the hysteresis.Furthermore,the hysteresis loop is found to increase with the increasing pressure and decreasing temperature.We suggest that the variation of pore throat size can explain the adsorption/desorption hysteresis of shale gas.Our conclusions and findings are of great significance for guiding the efficient exploitation of shale gas.
