Abstract:The main purpose of this investigation is to model the results related to biosorption using COMSOL (Multiphysics 4.3a), and to solve the advection‐dispersion equation by using both linear and Langmuir models. A bidimensional model was then proposed to study the mass transfer in the process of copper ions sorption in a dynamic mode on cider vinegar residues. Sorption tests were realized by evaluating the influence of flow rate (0.75, 1, and 2.65 ml min−1), bed height (3.5, 7 and 8.5 cm), and copper initial conc… Show more
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.
