The adsorption of basic dyes from aqueous solutions onto granular activated
carbon and natural zeolite was studied using a fixed bed column. The design
procedures for fixed bed adsorption columns were investigated for two basic
dyes Maxilon Goldgelb GL EC 400 % (MG-400) and Maxilon Schwarz FBL-01 300 %
(MS-300). Acomputer program based on the solid diffusion control model has
been developed. The model parameters: solid diffusion coefficient, DS, axial
dispersion coefficient, DL and external mass transfer coefficient, kf for
all the investigated systems were estimated by means of a best fit approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
