In this work, the kinetics, isotherms of Cr(Ⅲ) and Cr(V[) adsorption and their removal by SPR were investigated. The results show that the removal percentages of Cr(Ⅵ) and Cr(Ⅲ) increase with increasing SPR dosage and temperature and decrease with increasing SPR particle size and the initial concentration of chromium ions. However, the influence of pH value on the Cr(Ⅵ) removal differs from that of the Cr(Ⅲ) removal. The Cr(Ⅵ) removal percentage decreases with increasing pH values, while the Cr(Ⅲ) removal percentage increases with increasing pH value. The adsorption kinetics of Cr(Ⅵ) and Cr(Ⅲ) well fits with pseudo-second-order model. Langmuir adsorption isotherm can well describe the adsorption phenomena of chromium ions with the maximum adsorption capacity of 0.567 mg/g for Cr(Ⅵ) and 3.446 mg/g for Cr(Ⅲ). Moreover, SPR reveals higher adsorption capacity for Cr(Ⅲ) than that for Cr(Ⅵ), which implies that SPR has more potential application for Cr(Ⅲ)-containing wastewater treatment than that for Cr(Ⅵ)-containing wastewater treatment.展开更多

Practicallyspeaking, N_2O is a major greenhouse gas, whose continuous presence in theatmosphere is expected to last over a 100 years and produce its radiative warmingeffect just next to CO_2. In spite of its rather small concentration in the atmosphere,it is the Number Four largest greenhouse gas contributor to the overallglobal warming, behind carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour. Thebiofiltration experiments we have conducted to explore its removing rate of N_2Ofrom flue gas help us to find various operating factors in the biofilter system. Sofar as we know, N_2O gas has been fed from the top of the column. It was flowingthrough the column when it is made to get circulated with a peristaltic pumpfor 6 hours. The data obtained in our paper prove to be in conformity with theLangmuir adsorption model. The highest N_2O gas removing efficiency can bemade to be as high as 70.22% at the highest biofilter length of 50 cm with thegas flowing rate of 200 mL/min. The results of this research have finally beenmodeled by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm formula with its K value obtainedbeing 16.949 L/mol.展开更多
