Abstract:
A mistake of using pseudo-first-order kinetic equation for testing kinetic parameters of adsorption has been pointed out, as well as inappropriate citations for the adsorption kinetic models. Further, this discussion gives a correct pseudo-first-order kinetic equation and makes a suggestion for citing the original papers for the pseudo-second-order and intra-particle diffusion kinetic equations.

00:46Bioremediation
Bioremediation is the use of prokaryotes, fungi, or plants to remove pollutants from the environment. This process has been used to remove harmful toxins in groundwater as a byproduct of agricultural run-off and also to clean up oil spills.
01:06Coagulation
Colloidal solids are solid particles suspended in solution. They are usually negatively charged, attracting a compact primary layer of positively charged ions, which attract more counterions to form an electrical double layer. Electrostatic repulsion between the charged double layers prevents the particles from colliding, stabilizing the colloids. These solids are often undesirable because they can contain toxins that are difficult to remove. Coagulation is a technique that helps aggregate and...
