Activated carbons from agricultural byproducts (pine tree and coconut shell), coal, and carbon nanotubes as adsorbents for removal of sulfamethoxazole from spiked aqueous solutions: Kinetic and thermodynamic studies (2015, background): “According to Anirudhan and Radhakrishnan (2008), the magnitude of activation energy may give an idea about the type of adsorption, i.e., physiand/or chemisorption.”
Interpretation of Adsorption Thermodynamics and Kinetics (2020, background): “The effect of heat and time on the interaction between adsorbates and adsorbent surfaces during sorption processes is very important, because these interactions have been found to be temperature and time dependent [4] [5].”
Critical review in adsorption kinetic models (2009, methodology): “This equation has been successfully applied to the adsorption of metal ions, dyes, herbicides, oils, and organic substances from aqueous solutions (Yan and Viraraghavan, 2003; Al-Asheh et al., 2004; Petroni et al., 2004; Pan et al., 2007; Anirudhan and Radhakrishnan, 2008; Cheng et al., 2008; Hame”
