Effect of the acidic and alkaline activation of bentonite-like clays on sorption properties in relation to Fe³⁺ ions under static conditions

A study is performed of the effect the means of activation of bentonite-like clays (acidic, alkaline, combined) have on the adsorption characteristics of Fe³⁺ ions under static conditions. The mechanism of the acidic and alkaline activation of montmorillonite is identified and found to depend on the concentration of the activating agen

Effective purification of water from iron lons and potentially pathogenic microorganisms using a montmorillonite composite sorbent

The use of the developed composite sorbent based on the plant wastes (sunflower seed husks) and montmorillonite clay was shown to be highly effective for water purification from iron ions and potentially pathogenic microorganisms. It was shown experimentally that the developed composite sorbent at concentrations of up to 50 mg/L is capable of purifying water from iron ions under static and dynamic condition

Changes in the crystal lattice parameters of montmorillonite during its modification by cobalt and aluminum cations

The effect the modification (pillarization) of montmorillonite clays from different locations has on the crystallographic lattice parameters of montmorillonite is determined. It is revealed through ultrahigh resolution transmission electron microscopy and analyzing microdiffraction patterns that pillarization raises the distance between montmorillonite structural units to 2.2 nm, while the intracrystal distance between the atoms grows by 0.4 n

Adsorption of glyphosate on carbon-containing materials

A study is performed of the adsorption of glyphosate on carbon-containing materials obtained from pyrolysis products of sugar cane waste and commercial coconut activated carbon. The adsorption capacity of the materials with respect to glyphosate was determined using a variety of experimental model

On the adsorption mechanism of copper ions on bentonite clay

The adsorption of copper ions on bentonite clay was studied as a function of the pH of the medium, contact time, and temperature. A comparative study of the applicability of the Langmuir and Freindlich adsorption models for the description of the experimental adsorption isotherms of Cu²⁺ was carried ou

Adsorption of phenol and 2,4-dichlorophenol on carbon-containing sorbent produced from sugar cane bagasse

An adsorbent prepared from carbonized sugar cane bagasse Cl shows high adsorption capacity to phenol and 2,4-dichlorophenol that is equal to 2.24 and 2.45 mmol g-1, respectivel

Vortex merger near a topographic slope in a homogeneous rotating fluid

This work is a contribution to the PHYSINDIEN research program. It was supported by CNRS-RFBR contract PRC 1069/16-55-150001.The effect of a bottom slope on the merger of two identical Rankine vortices is investigated in a two dimensional, quasi-geostrophic, incompressible fluid. When two cyclones initially lie parallel to the slope, and more than two vortex diameters away from the slope, the critical merger distance is unchanged. When the cyclones are closer to the slope, they can merge at larger distances, but they lose more mass into filaments, thus weakening the efficiency of merger. Several effects account for this: the topographic Rossby wave advects the cyclones, reduces their mutual distance and deforms them. This along shelf wave breaks into filaments and into secondary vortices which shear out the initial cyclones. The global motion of fluid towards the shallow domain and the erosion of the two cyclones are confirmed by the evolution of particles seeded both in the cyclone sand near the topographic slope. The addition of tracer to the flow indicates that diffusion is ballistic at early times. For two anticyclones, merger is also facilitated because one vortex is ejected offshore towards the other, via coupling with a topographic cyclone. Again two anticyclones can merge at large distance but they are eroded in the process. Finally, for taller topographies, the critical merger distance is again increased and the topographic influence can scatter or completely erode one of the two initial cyclones. Conclusions are drawn on possible improvements of the model configuration for an application to the ocean.PostprintPeer reviewe
