Mathematical modelling of heavy metals removal from petroleum refinery wastewater

Abstract EN

Adsorption is a commonly used procedure in environmental applications in the chemical industry.

In comparison proposed mathematical models to explain batch adsorption as it relates to isotherms and kinetics, fixed-bed or column adsorption has a dearth of models to describe and forecast.

While the latter is the most common alternative in practice.

The current analysis begins with a brief overview of basic concepts and mathematical models used to characterize batch adsorption's mass transfer and isotherm behavior, which dominates Natural adsorption behavior in columns.

Following that, the commonly used models for predicting the breakthrough curve, such as the Clark, Thomas, Adams-Bohart, and Yoon-Nelson models, are fleetingly discussed from a mathematical and process perspective.

Their fundamental characteristics are also discussed, including their benefits and intrinsic flaws.

This analysis can aid those who are involved in adsorption in columns in selecting or developing a correct and realistic model for their research and Adsorption is a commonly used procedure in environmental applications in the chemical industry.
