The efficiency of Jordanian natural zeolite for heavy metals removal
Open accessAbstract
The capability of Jordanian natural zeolite to remove nickel from aqueous solutions was experimentally investigated using a packed bed column. The zeolite samples were obtained from Jabal AL Aritayn in the northeast of Jordan. The effects of the initial concentration of nickel ( C 0 ), the packed bed length ( L ) and the zeolite grain size ( D p ) on the adsorption process were considered. The finding indicated that these parameters named had a significant effect on the removal of nickel by the Jordanian zeolite. The characteristic breakthrough curves of the adsorption process were measured. The Klinkenberg model was adopted to explain the kinetic behavior of the adsorption phenomena, and we attempted to fit the packed bed experimental data to the breakthrough curve. The effective diffusivity was estimated and used to predict breakthrough curves under other adsorption conditions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
