Biological adsorption

System failure for in situ bioremediation efforts is often the result of ineffective transport of nutrients and electron acceptors due to channeling into preferential flow paths, heterogeneities, adsorption, biological utilization, and/or chemical reactions in the soil. Many of these problems can be overcome using electric fields for transport and injection instead of conventional groundwater injection by hydraulic techniques. [Pg.532]

Implementation of synergistic treatment concepts with conventional technologies (hybrid systems), e. g. carbon adsorption, biological treatment... [Pg.23]

Wastewater reclamation was pioneered using advanced conventional treatment processes to upgrade the water quality of wastewater to reusable standards. When RO was first introduced to produce water closer to drinking water quality from wastewater, a conventional treatment process was employed as pretreatment to the RO. A typical conventional pretreatment configuration would include flocculation, lime or alum clarification, recarbonation, settling, filtration, and activated-carbon adsorption. Biological activity is controlled by chlorination. [Pg.245]

Irreversible processes. Diffusion, thermal diffusion, gravitational, crystallization, adsorption, biological, laser-based photochemical, electrolysis. [Pg.1224]

Adsorption. Some organics are not removed in biological systems operating under normal conditions. Removal of residual organics can be achieved by adsorption. Both activated carbon and synthetic resins are used. As described earlier under pretreatment methods, regeneration of the activated carbon in a furnace can cause carbon losses of perhaps 5 to 10 percent. [Pg.319]

Enzymes are important catalysts in biological organisms and are of increasing use in detergents and sensors. It is of interest to understand not only their adsorption characteristics but also their catalytic activity on the surface. The interplay between adsorption and deactivation has been clearly illustrated [119] as has the ability of a protein to cleave a surface-bound substrate [120]. [Pg.404]

However, the B.E.T. and modificated B.E.T as well as isotherm of d Arcy and Watt fit the experimental data only in some range of the relative humidities up to about 80-85%. At the same time the adsorption in the interval 90-100% is of great interest for in this interval the A— B conformational transition, which is of biological importance, takes place [17], [18]. This disagreement can be the result of the fact that the adsorbed water molecules can form a regular lattice, structure of which depends on the conformation of the NA. To take into account this fact we assume that the water binding constants depend on the conformational variables of the model, i.e ... [Pg.121]

Mechanisms of Leukocyte Adsorption. The exact mechanism of leukocyte adhesion to filter media is not yet fuUy understood. Multiple mechanisms simultaneously contribute to the adhesion of cells to biomaterials, however, physical and biological mechanisms have been distinguished. Physical mechanisms include barrier phenomenon, surface tension, and electrostatic charge biological mechanisms include cell activation and cell to cell binding. [Pg.524]

Biomaterials with Low Thrombogenicity. Poly(ethylene oxide) exhibits extraordinary inertness toward most proteins and biological macromolecules. The polymer is therefore used in bulk and surface modification of biomaterials to develop antithrombogenic surfaces for blood contacting materials. Such modified surfaces result in reduced concentrations of ceU adhesion and protein adsorption when compared to the nonmodifted surfaces. [Pg.344]

Eosin [15086-94-9] (tetrabromofluorescein), C2QHgBi40, made by the bromination of fluorescein, is both a dye and an adsorption indicator. Eosin Y /7 7372-87-17, C2QH Br40 2Na, the disodium salt, is a biological stain. 475 -Dibromofluorescein [596-03-2], C2QH2QBr20, is used in D C Orange No. [Pg.298]

Other types of regenerators designed for specific adsorption systems may use solvents and chemicals to remove susceptible adsorbates (51), steam or heated inert gas to recover volatile organic solvents (52), and biological systems in which organics adsorbed on the activated carbon during water treatment are continuously degraded (53). [Pg.532]

Reaction kinetics at phase houndaiies. Rates of adsorption and desorption in porous adsorbents are generally controlled by mass transfer within the pore network rather than by the kinetics of sorption at the surface. Exceptions are the cases of chemisorption and affinity-adsorption systems used for biological separations, where the kinetics of bond formation can be exceedingly slow. [Pg.1510]
