The sorption of two acid dyes (Acid Yellow 99 and Acid Red 183) into locally available industrial waste materials, namely, Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GBFS) and Furnace Bottom Ash (FBA), has been investigated by performing batch equilibrium experiments with pH, ionic conductivity, initial dye concentration and temperature as variables. The kinetic sorption data indicated that the sorption capacity of GBFS for these dyes was almost zero. On the other hand, the color removal efficiency for FBA could reach 50% depending on the initial dye concentration. It was also found that the kinetics of sorption of Acid Yellow 99 and Acid Red 1 . . .83 onto the surface of FBA at different operating conditions were best described by the Elovich kinetic model. In addition, the adsorption equilibrium data were analyzed using various adsorption isotherm models and the results have shown that the sorption behaviors of the studied dyes could be best described by the Langmuir model. © 2010 Elsevier B.V Daha fazlası Daha az

Coupled transport of thiocyanate ions through a liquid membrane containing quaternary ammonium chloride salts in chloroform was examined. The influences of the carrier type in the membrane phase on the coupled transport of thiocyanate ions were investigated. The kinetics of the coupled transport were analyzed in the formalism of two consecutive irreversible first-order reactions and the kinetic parameters (k1d, k2m, k2a, Rmmax, tmax, Jdmax, Jamax,) were also calculated. For the coupled transport of thiocyanate ions, quaternary ammonium chloride salts having different carbon atom numbers (Cn) used as carriers were found to increase t . . .hiocyanate ions transport efficiency with increasing carbon atom numbers. Tetradecyl trimethylammonium chloride (TDTMACl), hexadecyl trimethylammonium chloride (HDTMACl), and tetraoctyl ammonium chloride (TOACl) were found to be the most effective carrier types for transport of thiocyanate ions when Cn is greater than 16. The activation energies for maximum membrane entrance and exit fluxes were calculated as 32.45 kJ/mol and 34.75 kJ/mol, respectively. The values of the activation energy indicate that the process is controlled by species diffusion Daha fazlası Daha az
