“…Adsorption on activated carbon is a well-established technology for water treatment owning to its versatility and high efficiency, including for PhCs (Putra et al, 2009;Calisto et al, 2015;Mashayekh-Salehi and Moussavi, 2016). Nevertheless, it is an expensive adsorbent, US $20-22/kg (Babel and Kurniawan, 2003), which limits its widespread applicability.…”

Marine macroalga Bifurcaria bifurcata was investigated as sorbent for two environmental emerging pollutants, the pharmaceuticals venlafaxine (VLF) and fluoxetine (FLX), from aqueous solutions, both in mono and bicomponent batch systems. The alga was characterized by means of IR spectroscopy, allowing to identify the most important groups for biosorption, carboxylic, sulfonic and hidroxile. The point of zero charge was determined, being 6.4. Adsorption of FLX follows a pseudo first order kinetics and kinetic constants are higher for FLX than for VLF. Its adsorption better represented by the pseudo second order model. For both pharmaceuticals, the equilibrium was reached within *100 min. Adsorption studies reveal that the process was more efficient at lower pH range and followed the Langmuir-Freundlich's model for VLF and Langmuir's model for FLX. Maximum adsorption capacities reached a level of 12-3 and 22-4 lmol/g for VLF and FLX, respectively, in the mono-component system. The difference was attributed to the presence of various functional groups of varying polarity within the adsorbates' molecules that affected their interactions with the adsorbent surface. The Langmuir-Freundlich's extended model was applied to the adsorption data of the bicomponent system and no changes in the maximum adsorption capacities were found (14-2 and 20-3 lmol/g for VLF and FLX, respectively), there is no evidence of competition between the adsorbates.

In this study, solubility and degradation of paracetamol were examined using subcritical water. The effect of temperature and static time was investigated during the solubility process in subcritical water at constant pressure (50 bar). The experimental results showed that temperature and static time have crucial effects on the degradation and solubility degrees. The maximal solubility of paracetamol was obtained at 403 K as (14.68±0.74)×10 3. An approximation model for the solubility of paracetamol was proposed. O 2 and H 2 O 2 were used for the degradation of paracetamol. The maximum degradation degree was found as 68.66±1.05 % and 100±0.00 % using O 2 and H 2 O 2 , respectively.

“…Among these methods, adsorption with activated carbon is an available removal method for the removal of organic and inorganic pollutants due to its cost‐effective, large surface area, numerous microporous structure, good surface chemistry, and renewability. Up to now, many adsorption studies have mainly focused on the removal of liquid contaminants, such as acetaminophen, dye, and heavy metal . However, studies on the adsorption of gaseous CH 3 COOH on activated carbon have hardly been reported.…”

Excessive exposure to hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) and acetic acid (CH 3 COOH) gases is extremely dangerous in a confined space. An effective indoor air pollutant removal porous carbon filter was developed using NaOH impregnated on activated carbon (NaOH/AC) for the adsorption of H 2 S and CH 3 COOH. Activated carbon (NaOH/AC) filter was characterized using various methods, indicating good physical and chemical properties (especially -OH functional groups) for the adsorption of air pollutants. The prepared NaOH/AC filter was cured at different curing temperatures and residence times to understand the effect of the curing conditions on the adsorption performance. The best results were obtained with NaOH/AC filter cured at 100 • C for 20 minutes as it eliminated the initial concentration of 400 ppm of CH 3 COOH in 15 minutes and H 2 S in 30 minutes at 20 • C and 60% relative humidity. Isotherm and kinetic models were used to analyze the adsorption process. Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second order kinetic models provided the best fit to the adsorption of CH 3 COOH and H 2 S on NaOH/AC filter. The adsorption mechanism was controlled by the intraparticle diffusion combined with film diffusion. The maximum adsorption capacity of NaOH/AC filter was 473 mg/g for H 2 S adsorption, and 550 mg/g for CH 3 COOH adsorption. In addition, the spent NaOH/AC filter was regenerated for reuse.This study is expected to develop low-cost and effective porous carbon filter using NaOH-modified activated carbon for indoor air purification.
