The objectives of this study were to evaluate the applicability of adsorption models for adsorption properties of adsorbents. For this study, adsorption experiment of $NO_3^-$ ion using anion exchange resin has been investigated under adsorption equilibrium and kinetic in bach process. Adsorption equilibrium experiment were carried out that two conditions is change of adsorbate concentration and change of adsorbent weight. Experiment results have been analyzed by adsorption isotherm models, energy models and kinetic models. Under the condition of change of adsorbate concentration was best described by Sips and Redlich-Perterson isotherm models. However case of change of adsorbent weight was described by Langmuir isotherm models. It seems reasonable to assume that isotherm model was dominated by multiple mechanism according to experiment condition.

오염물 이동에 영향을 미치는 지연계수는 용질과 시료의 흡착특성을 나타낸다. 흡착특성을 표현하는 데에는 Freundlich등온식, Langmuir등온식 또는 선형등온식등을 사용할 수 있는 데, 본 연구에서는 상관계수를 이용하여 각등온식의 적용성을 평가하고 용질이동 수치해 석을 하여 농도가 10ppm 이하로 낮을 경우의 용질이동정도를 상호 비교하였다. 아연, 크롬, 납에 대한 등온식의 상관계수에 따른 적용성 평가결과 Freundlich 등온식이 보편적으로 적용 가능한 것으로 나타났고, 수치해석 결과 농도가 10ppm 이하일 경우는 용질이동성이 동일하게 나타났다.

Altered Langmuir adsorption isotherm has been suggested for adsorption reactions occurring in aqueous environment based upon the concept of the steric displacement between adsorbates and water molecules at the surface of adsorbent. For the adsorption of $Cd^{2+}$ on activated carbon, the suggested adsorption isotherm was shown to be more well applied to the experimental results compared with the classical Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Based on this, regarding the adsorption system which following the Langmuir model more precise design and controllable operation of the process were considered to be attainable when the adsorption process is analyzed employing the altered adsorption isotherm.

본 연구는 목재로서 활용가치가 적은 수피(bark)를 활용하여 수질오염물질을 제거할 수 있는 여과 시스템에 대한 기초연구로서 소나무의 일종인 loblolly pine(Pinus taeda L.) 수피의 인 ($PO_4-P$) 흡착특성을 연구하였다. 실험에 사용된 수피는 입상형태로서 polyallylamine hydrochloride로 전처리하여 회분식 등온 흡착실험을 수행하였다. 회분식 등온흡착실험은 수용액 pH 3~pH 8범위에서, 인의 농도별(10, 20, 30, 40 mg/L)로 수행하였다. pH 5에서 가장 높은 인 제거 효율을 나타냈으며, 수용액의 pH는 실험 후 pH 3으로 감소하였다. 이러한 감소는 수피에 의한 phosphate의 흡착이 Lewis acid-base 반응으로서 이 과정에서 $H^+$의 방출로 인하여 나타난 현상인 것으로 여겨지며, 주된 반응 메카니즘은 더 연구할 필요성이 있다. 인 흡착은 초기에 빠른 속도로 진행되었으며 대략 200분 이후에 평형에 도달하였고, 시간이 지날수록 흡착양이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 인의 흡착특성 결과는 Langmuir 등온흡착식과 Freundlich 등온흡착식으로 설명될 수 있으며, 등온흡착식 적용결과, 흡착제에 대한 최대 흡착능은 7.14 mg/g 이며 다른 흡착제와 비교하여 더 높았다. 실험결과와 모델에 의한 흡착능을 비교하고자 pseudo second-order model을 적용하여 흡착 동역학 상수를 구하였다. 또한 EDXA분석으로 회분식 흡착실험 후 수피와 인이 결합되어있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Computational simulations of adsorption columns were carried out to investigate the removal characteristics of VOCs from a laundry shop. n-Decane was selected as the representative component among the VOCs emitted, and the activity of the adsorbents, such as activated carbon, was evaluated using commercial CFD code. The mathematical framework was composed of continuity and Navier-stokes equations, and the simulation was performed using the Matlab program. The adsorption isotherms of LDF, Freundlich, and Langmuir were evaluated, and the adsorption amount of the adsorption isotherms with the adsorption parameter was compared. The simulation was carried out using a particle porosity, dispersion coefficient, particle density, bed diameter, and bed length of 0.79, 42.4 ㎠/min, 485 g/L, 2.0 cm, and 2.5 cm, respectively. The effect of the gas velocity, dispersion coefficient, and voidage on the adsorption amount was compared in the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The simulation was carried out in the velocity range of 50 to 200 cm/min, dispersion coefficient range of 100 to 400 ㎠/min, and particle porosity range of 0.66 to 0.79. The simulation results of activated carbon with benzene coincided with the Langmuir isotherm. Three types of adsorption isotherm were compared under similar conditions, and the simulation results showed the efficient adsorption condition for hydrocarbons.

In this study, experiments on the static adsorption of benzene were carried out using activated carbon made from Pinus koraiensis which is normally discarded waste timber in South Korea. The experiment were performed at 303.15 K, 318.15 K and 333.15 K under the pressure up to 7.999 kPa. Isothermal adsorption curves were obtained using Langmuir isotherm, Freundlich isotherm and Toth isotherm for comparison. Based on the fitting, the adsorption quantity of Benzene (q), the isothermal adsorption curves obtained from Langmuir isotherm and Toth isotherm showed the higher accuracy. Although there was little difference in accuracy between result from Langmuir isotherm and that from Toth isotherm, the adsorption quantity of Benzene (q) was expressed in terms of Langmuir isotherm because less parameters were required for Langmuir isotherm than for Toth isotherm. Moreover SEM images of the activated carbon from Pinus koraiensis and the commercial activated carbon were taken to observe the pore size development. The results showed that the perforation development of activated carbon from Pinus koraiensis (waste timber) was better than that of commercial activated carbon (DARCO A.C., SPG-100 A.C.). Adsorption quantity of benzene on activated carbon from Pinus koraiensis was confirmed to be higher than that on commercial activated carbon. Therefore, we may conclude that it is feasible to commercialize the process to manufacturing activated carbon from waste timber.

We have introduced two dimensional cluster aggregation model to explain theoretically two phase coexistence phenomena such that adsorption is increased sharply discontinuous in particular pressure on the surface. And then, we have derived adsorption isotherms by applying fundamental statistical thermodynamics and Lagrange multipliers to the our model. By analyzing the our derived adsorption isotherms, we can explain well qualitatively that two phase coexistence on the surface adsorption would be a phenomena that occurs with the strong attractive forces between the adsorbed particles.

For the purpose of controlling the release of radioiodine to the environment in nuclear power plants, adsorption characteristics of elemental iodine and methyl iodide on the base carbon and 2%, 5% TEDA impregnated carbons were studied. The amounts of adsorption of elemental iodine and methyl iodide on the carbons were compared with Langmuir, Freundlich, Sips and Dubinin-Astakhov(DA) isotherm equations. Adsorption data were well correlated by the DA equation based on the potential theory. Adsorption energy distributions were obtained from the parameters of the DA equation derived from the condensation approach method. For the adsorption of methyl iodide and elemental iodine-carbon system, the DA equation can be well expressed by the degree of heterogeneity of the micropore system because the surface is nonuniform when its potential energy is unequal. The adsorption energy distribution wes investigated to find a surface heterogeneity on the carbon. The surface heterogeneity for iodine-carbon system is highly affected by the adsorbate-adsorbent interaction as well as the pore structure. The surface heterogeneity increases as a content of TEDA impregnated increases. The adsorption nature of methyl iodide on carbon turned out to be more heterogeneous than that of elemental iodine.

Theory of the adsorption by a monolayer is extended to the multiple adsorption layers. Though the model used is extremely simple, the adsorption isotherm thus obtained describes well qualitatively the nature of unsaturation adsorptions such as $Br_2$adsorption by the silica gel.
