Determination of cyanide ion has been studied by adsorptive stripping voltammetry using hanging mercury electrode. Cyanide ion complexed with copper ion is adsorpbed on the electrode and oxidised at the positive potential scan. Optimal conditions of CN determination were found to be ; supporting electrolyte solution ; 0.1 M NaCl of ammonium buffer at pH 10, accumulation potential; -800 mV vs Ag/AgCl, accumulation time ; 300 s, scan rate ; 50mV/s. The linear concentration of cyanide ion was observed in the range $1{\times}10^{-8}$, $1{\times}10^{-7}M$. The detection limit(n/s=3) was $0.13{\mu}g/L$($5{\times}10^{-9}M$) with 3.5% RSD.

Trace vanadium was determined by Adsorptive stripping voltammetry with HMDE in PIPES buffer solution. N-Benzoylphenylhydroxylamine was used as a ligand. The calibration curve of vanadium was linear over the range of $10{\sim}70{\mu}g/L$ on accumulation potential of +0.15V and on accumulation time of 10 sec. The various metal ions did not interfere with the determination of vanadium(V) in this case.

Removing hazardous materials from water resources is very important for efficient utilization of the resources, and adsorptive removal is regarded as a competitive technology when good adsorbents with high capacity/selectivity are available. Metal-organic framework (MOF), composed of both organic and inorganic (metallic) species, have been tried for various adsorptions because of huge surface area/pore volume, well-defined pore structure, and facile functionalization. In this review, we summarized technologies on adsorptive removal of hazardous organics from water mainly using MOFs as adsorbents. Instead of reporting high adsorption capacity or rate, we summarized mechanisms of interaction between adsorbates (organics) and adsorbents (MOFs) and methods to modify or functionalize MOFs for effective adsorptions. We expect for readers of this review to understand needed characteristics of adsorbents for the adsorptive removal, functionalization of MOFs for effective adsorption and so on. Moreover, they might have an idea on storage and delivery of organics via understanding of the mechanism of adsorption and interaction.

Microfiltration/ultrafiltration (MF/UF) Adsorptive polyamide-6 (PA-6) membranes were prepared using wet phase inversion process. The prepared PA-6 membranes are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), porosity and swelling degree. In this study, the membranes performance has examined by adsorptive removal of copper ions from aqueous solutions in a batch adsorption mode. The $PA-6/H_2O$ membranes display sponge like and highly porous structures, with porosities of 41-73%. Under the conditions examined, the adsorption experiments have showed that the $PA-6/H_2O$ membranes had a good adsorption capacity (up to 120-280 mg/g at the initial copper ion concentration ($C_0$) = 680 mg/L, pH7), fast adsorption rates and short adsorption equilibrium times (less than 1.5-2 hrs) for copper ions. The fast adsorption in this study may be attributed to the high porosities and large pore sizes of the $PA-6/H_2O$ membranes, which have facilitated the transport of copper ions to the adsorption. The results obtained from the study illustrated that the copper ions which have adsorbed on the polyamide membranes can be effectively desorbed in an Ethylene dinitrilotetra acetic acid Di sodium salt ($Na_2$ EDTA) solution from initial concentration (up to 92% desorption efficiency) and the PA-6 membranes can be reused almost without loss of the adsorption capacity for copper ions. The results obtained from the study suggested that the $PA-6/H_2O$ membranes can be effectively applied for the adsorptive removal of copper ions from aqueous solutions.

An efficient propylene/propane separation technology is needed to obtain high-purity propylene, which is a raw material for polypropylene synthesis. Since conventional cryogenic distillation is an energy-intensive process due to the similar physicochemical properties of propylene and propane, adsorptive separation has gained considerable interest. In this study, we have computationally investigated the changes in adsorption separation performances by arbitrarily controlling the adsorption strength of open metal sites in two different types of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Through the evaluation of adsorptive separation performances in terms of working capacity, selectivity, and Adsorption Figure of Merit (AFM), we have suggested proper density and strength of adsorption sites as well as appropriate temperature condition to obtain optimal propylene/propane adsorptive separation performances.

A stripping voltammetric procedure for determining ruthenium was developed, based on the adsorptive accumulation of ruthenium in the presence of hydrazine in acidic acetate buffer. After preconcentration of ruthenium compelex and reduction, the ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogen current at -0.84V was measured by differential pulse voltammetry. Optimal experimental conditions were found to be a stirred acetate buffer solution(pH 2.0) containing 0.01M acetate and 0.01M hydrazine, accumulation potential of -0.76V, and a scan rate of 5mV/s. The detection limit was $2{\times}10^{-9}M$ for a 7 min accumulation period. The possible interferences by other platinum group metals were also investigated.

This is a study on the volatile organic compounds(VOCs) concentrator with zeolite adsorptive honey rotor and catalytic combustion system for abating VOCs emitted from printing industry. VOCs emitted from the printing industry is mainly caused by organic solvent of printing ink. The content of organic solvents in printing ink varies from 40% to 75% and its content in the gravure ink is higher than that in any other ink. The average concentrations of each VOCs are 139 ppm for toluene, 152.1 ppm for MEK, 256.9 ppm for methanol and 42.9 ppm for isopropyl alcohol. We used zeolite honeycomb for absorbent of VOCs concentrator and palladium for catalyst combustion system. This system abated over 96% of emitted total VOCs, 98% of toluene, 100% of MEK, 92% of methanol and, 100% of isopropyl alcohol. It is concluded that the low-leveled high-volume VOCs emitted from printing process were removed almost by concentrator with zeolite adsorptive honey rotor and catalytic combustion system.

Determination method of trace thioglycolate has been studied by adsorptive stripping voltammetry. Copper(II)-thioglycolate complex is adsorbed at the hanging mercury drop electrode and stripped during cathodic scan. Electrolyte was used pH 6.5 phosphate and pH 9.5 borate buffer solutions. Optimal conditions were a copper(II) concentration $1{\times}10^{-4}M$, an adsorption accumulation potential -0.2V, an adsorption accumulation time 60 sec and a scan rate 20mV/sec. A detection limit of $1{\times}10^{-9}M$ thioglycolate was obtained. The method was applied to the determination of thioglycolate in cold wave fluids and depilating creams.

A gaseous oxygen detector has been developed in a configuration of Pd-$SnO_x$-$Si_3N_4$-$SiO_2$-Si-Al with highly resistive $SnO_x$ layer as the oxygen adsorptive element. In this paper, we present the characteristics of the device in response to oxygen adsoption/desorption under applied d.c. bias. Experimental results showed that the oxygen adsorptive response by the device was reduced significantly under a positive gate bias, for all experimental regions of $O_2$ partial pressure. On the other hand, the application of a negative gate bias increased the device's adsorptive response of oxgyen. A device model concerning this electroadsorption/desorption behavior of the device is provided.
