adsorption

The article is dedicated to the problem of decarbonising industrial gas emissions using adsorption methods. The article examines promising approaches to reducing carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions using adsorption materials with high selectivity and efficiency in capture processes. The purpose of the study is to determine the adsorption capacity of various types of adsorbents, including synthetic and natural materials, in particular, fly ash synthesised by the hydrothermal method, zeolite obtained by the sintering method, natural zeolite, and fly ash from thermal power plants.

Reducing or eliminating ions of toxic heavy elements such as iron and zinc from aqueous solutions has been adopted in this research. The batch process is used to remove metal ions using a cheap adsorbent material that is called hawthorn nucleus. In addition, the influences of contact time, pH, metal ions concentration, and adsorbent dose on the removal percentage have been studied.

The adsorption of glycine on amorphous silica surface has been studied to demonstrate the catalytic activity of silica surfaces towards the formation of peptide bonds on prebiotic earth. Silica nanoparticles were synthesized using a microwave assisted method and the nanoparticles were characterized using SEM. Glycine was adsorbed from aqueous solution on the nanoparticles and the adsorption behavior was characterized using FTIR and TGA analyses. At a glycine concentration of 0.5M and at pH=7, favorable adsorption was observed which obeyed the Langmuir isotherm model.

In the present study, a novel functionalized silica composite was prepared by adsorption of poly[8- oxyquinoline methacrylate] on the surface of silica gel. Immobilization of poly[8- oxyquinoline methacrylate] on the silica gel surface was confirmed using IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis combined with mass spectrometry. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the polymer almost completely covers the surface of the silica gel in the form of agglomerates of different geometric shapes.

The article is devoted to studying the process of adsorption of oil products using multivariate cluster analysis methods. The study solves the problem of environmental pollution with petroleum substances and the search for effective cleaning methods. The work aims to study the prospects of using synthetic zeolites to effectively purify industrial wastewater from oil products.

This article is devoted to the study of the carbon dioxide adsorption process. The relevance of using carbon nanotubes for adsorbing carbon dioxide from industrial emissions is that carbon nanotubes have a high surface area and can effectively interact with carbon dioxide molecules. In addition, they have high mechanical strength and chemical resistance, which makes them attractive for industrial use. Carbon nanotubes have the potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and reduce the negative impact on the environment.

Considering general trend of energy consumption, according to which the amount of consumed energy increases, its cost and scarcity continuously increase. The 10–12 % of all energy is spent on drying processes in the world. At the current stage of the development of dehydration processes in Ukraine and the world, an urgent problem has arisen in the creation and development of highly efficient thermal technologies that would ensure minimal energy consumption for the process and high quality of the material.
