This paper presents a state of the art review of adsorption models for a new plant-based surfactant adsorption onto sandstone minerals. The adsorption data at both kinetic and equilibrium modes were obtained from batch experiments. Four adsorption kinetic models, five two-parameter, and six three-parameter equilibrium models were used for interpretation of the obtained data. Among the two and three-parameter isotherm models applied, the Jovanovic and the Khan isotherms showed the best fit, respectively. And the pseudo-second order model presented a better fit than other kinetic models. Finally, a computer-based modeling approach was developed and used for predicting the kinetics of...

This paper concerns with the interfacial tension (IFT), wettability modification and adsorption behavior of a new plant-based surface active agent, Zizyphus Spina Christi, onto sandstone minerals which has been rarely attended in the available literature. Both kinetics and equilibrium adsorption data were obtained from batch mode tests. It was revealed that Freundlich isotherms matched better fit to the equilibrium data which implied that multilayer coverage of Zizyphus Spina Christi onto the sandstone particle surfaces was more likely to occur. Analysis of experimental kinetic data based on intraparticle diffusion model disclosed that the intraparticle diffusion mechanism is not the only... 

A new mathematical model was developed and an exact analytical solution without approximations of previous work was derived for the description of the kinetics and equilibrium characteristics of drug loading from a finite external solution onto ion-exchange microspheres. The influence of important parameters pertinent to material properties and loading conditions on the kinetics, efficiency, and equilibrium of drug loading was analyzed using the developed model and equations. The numerical results showed that the rate of drug loading increased with increasing initial drug concentration in the solution or with the relative volume of the external solution and the microsphere. The maximum...
