This study investigated the adsorption of methylene blue with natural and artificial zeolite. The effect of pH, contact time, initial concentration and adsorbent dose on adsorption was also investigated. An artificial dye was prepared. Adsorption removal efficiency was low at pH = 2, 3 and 4 but it was quite high at pH = 7. It was determined that the contact time reaches equilibrium within 60 minutes in the adsorption of methylene blue with natural and artificial zeolite. The initial dyestuff concentration for both adsorbents was 5 mg/L. For the removal of methylene blue, a 0.5 g natural and artificial zeolite dosage was sufficient. In order to express the adsorption of natural and artificial zeolite on methylene blue, Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) isotherm models were examined. In the isotherm study, both natural and artificial zeolite adapted to the Langmuir isotherm model. Langmuir correlation coefficient was 0.998 for artificial zeolite and 0.993 for natural zeolite. Both adsorbent materials best fit into the pseudo-second kinetic model with similar correlation coefficient values of 0.999.

Neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, present formidable challenges in modern medicine due to their complex pathologies and the absence of curative treatments. Despite advances in symptomatic management, early diagnosis remains essential for mitigating disease progression and improving patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as MRI, PET, and cerebrospinal fluid biomarker analysis, are often inadequate for the early detection of these diseases.

Entropy-driven strategy enables the systematic design of complex systems by using entropy as a quantifiable design parameter for the degree of mixing. In this study, we present mixed-linker zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), sod-ZIF-1 series, that features two types of six-membered rings (6MRs) with aperture sizes of 3.4 Å and 1.

This study aims to improve the properties of polyether sulfone (PES) membranes by using an innovative composite filler. Pistachio shell-derived activated carbon (PSAC) was initially synthesized via chemical activation, followed by surface modification with ZIF-8 and ZIF-67. Subsequently, modified membranes with varying weight percentages of this composite were fabricated using the phase inversion method.

Composite membranes incorporated with high-performance adsorbents are promising for uranium removal. The impact of speciation and ionic strength on uranium adsorption by zeolites was investigated in both static adsorption and composite membrane filtration. Zeolites with high Si/Al ratios exhibited the highest uranium adsorption capacity.
