Adsorption of Phenols onto Granular Activated Carbon in a Liquid-Solid Fluidized Bed

Recovery, concentration and purification of phenolic compounds by adsorption: A review

“…The different possibilities of contacting adsorbents and solutions have been compared (Corrêa et al, 2007). Fluidized equipment have been proposed to adsorb phenols from model solutions (Wang et al, 1997;Khalili et al, 2002) and frrom processing wastewaters (Sutton and Mishra, 1994;Englert et al, 2006;Mohanty et al, 2008a) onto AC. Fluidized resin beds have been used for wastewater purification (Corrêa et al, 2007), food applications (Wilson et al, 1989) and flavonoid purification (Li and Chase, 2009).…”

Applicability of the various adsorption models of three dyes adsorption onto activated carbon prepared waste apricot

“…Adsorption rate and equilibrium data are the basic requirements for the design of adsorption systems. Adsorption isotherms have been studied by many researchers [3][4][5][6][7].…”

Development of a novel mobile industrial-scale fluidized adsorption process for emergency treatment of water polluted by aniline: CFD simulation and experiments

“…And then water refluxed to the water tank (1). We can take the samples in the bed outlet (10) to measure the aniline concentration, and measured the bed pressure drop at the pressure hole (8).…”

“…Nevertheless, water had to overcome a high pressure drop offered by the stationary phase of activated carbon from a hydrodynamic point of view, which resulted in extra water resistance and affected the adsorption efficiency. Fortunately, fluidized adsorption, which might be a qualified approach for emergency water treatment, may address the above mentioned disadvantages [8]. Besides, the Liquid-Solid Circulating Fluidized Bed (LSCFB) could be easily carried by ships or other flotation devices for mobile emergency disposal as a modular unit.…”
