EDX Analysis Of The BJH Method

Improved Essays
In Fig 4 pore size distribution profiles of the Y and MY is observed. By the BJH method, which uses desorption branch of the nitrogen isotherm in order to calculate the pore size distribution and the adsorbed volume[12], the pore size in the range of only 1.4 nm could be seen in Fig. 4a. Presence of various distribution of pore size is the manifest of the related BJH of the MY zeolite in Fig. 4b. As can be seen there are the pore size distributions from 1.2-6 nm in which the pores in the range of almost 2.2 nm are in maximum amount. The procedure observed in the BJH method is completely in agreement with the information achieved by BET methods.

An adsorption equilibrium usually named adsorption isotherm. It shows how an adsorbate interacts with adsorbent surface and also the amount of tendency of adsorbate to adsorbent will be understood. An adsorption isotherm consists of some constants which values express the surface properties and affinity of the adsorbent (عینا). It can also be used to find the adsorption capacity of adsorbent. At equilibrium the concentration will remain constant (CEJ). By plotting the solid-phase concentration versus liquid-phase concentration the adsorption isotherm achieve whereby certain constants will be attained containing various information about the surface properties and affinity of the adsorbent. …show more content…
As can be seen in the table— from the Langmuir isotherm, the maximum adsorption capacity (qm) for usual zeolite Y is about 15 mg/g. After modification of parent zeolite its value was reached to remarkable amount of 133 mg/g. The essential characteristics of the Langmuir isotherm can be expressed in term of the dimensionless constant separation factor, RL, is as follow:(MW).
R_L=1/(1+K_L C_0 )
Where C0 is the initial concentration and KL is the Langmuir isotherm constant. The RL values reflect the property of adsorption; RL > 1 is unfavorable, RL=1 is linear, 0 < 1/n <1) indicative of a higher adsorb ability of MB for both adsorbents [32] (CEJ).
As can be seen in the table ---, the Redlich–Peterson g parameter is almost 0.95 for both adsorbent which is near 1and imply that this isotherm is approaching to Langmuir isotherm [رفرنس].
The Temkin parameters A and B were also listed in Table ---. From Y11 to modified MY12, the values of A and B became larger. This issue also confirms the promotive characteristic of the hierarchical modified MY12 zeolite.

    5. CONCLUSIONS Dry waste prawn shell converted to chitin and chitosan by using 3.5% of NaOH and 1N HCl with the temperature range from 20 oC-120 oC in the process of deprotinized, demineralized , decolourized and deacytilated .CMC was synthesized by carboxymethylation, as some of the –OH group of chitosan were substituted by –CH2COOH groups. Carboxymethyl chitosan was used as an adsorbent for the removal of copper from the wastewater. The removal efficiencies of copper were affected by different parameters such as pH, adsorbent dosage, temperature, contact time, initial metal ion concentration, anion and cation.…

    In this experiment, two different Bentonite clays (zeolites) were synthesized, one magnetized and one not, to determine if either material could possibly be a better sequestering agent than charcoal. Introduction PAHs are a group of chemicals that pollute both the environment and water supply through the incomplete burning of coal, oil and gas, trash, tobacco, and other organic substances High concentrations of PAHs in the environment are a serious concern due to the fact that they are human carcinogens as well as toxic to wildlife Due to their detrimental nature, there are measures being take to remove these pollutants from the environment, especially in water sources. The most common method for doing this is by utilizing a sequestering agent, which is often charcoal This purpose of…

    The beginning of the lab contained a substantial amount of information detailing what chemical properties make up the structure of a salt hydrate. It provided essential knowledge proceeding to the successful completion of this lab such as the idea that hydrates are salt compounds which have formed weak bonds to water molecules that can easily be broken through the use of heat. With this information in mind, it was expected that a series of procedural guidelines following this information be used to aid in the identification of the chemical change taking place as one of the 2 following chemical formulas: BaCl2 + 2H2O (s)  BaCl2 + 2H2O (g) BaCl2 + 2H2O (s)  BaO (s) + 2HCl (g) + 2H2O (g) Based on the information given to us in the preliminary portion of the lab, it is easy to identify whether the heating of the hydrates will result in either a release of solely water vapors or water as well as acidic vapors. With the 2 chemical equations written above it is easy to make a scientific prediction of…

    The purpose of this step is to remove any water that adheres to the compound that would lead to an inaccurate mass. A known mass of about 0.12xx grams of KIO3 is then weighed and dissolved with water in an Erlenmeyer flask. Excess KI and HCl was added to react with KIO3 to form I2 in the following equation: KIO3 + KI + HCl  KCl + I2 + H2O. Since KI and HCl is added in excess, the reaction will be forced to the right due to Le Chatalier Principle. It is important for the titration process to be carried immediately after HCl is added since iodide oxidizes readily in the presence of oxygen in air due to an acidic environment. The resulting I2 is then titrated with the thiosulfate standard.…
