本研究通过吸附等温线和速率实验，研究了化学和物理现象对三种活性炭吸附一种黄腐酸和两种腐殖酸的影响。该研究侧重于识别和量化影响活性炭吸附腐殖物质的参数，并将这些发现应用于水处理实践。结果表明，吸附与pH值、腐殖物质初始浓度、碳用量和颗粒大小以及溶液中各种无机离子的水平有关。许多观察到的影响归因于腐殖物质是化合物的混合物，因此它们的吸附是一个多组分过程。这些混合物中吸附性的分布似乎随某些离子的存在而变化，最显著的是Ca2+和Mg2+。这些发现已应用于实验室规模的颗粒炭柱和粉末炭柱- 碳浆系统。从理论和应用两个角度对结果进行了讨论。包括37个参考文献、表格、图表。

For this investigation, adsorption isotherm and rate experiments were conducted to study the effects of chemical and physical phenomena on the adsorption of one fulvic acid and two humic acids by three activated carbons. The study focused on the identification and quantification of parameters that affect the adsorption of humic substances by activated carbon and on the application of these findings to water treatment practice. Results demonstrate the dependence of adsorption on pH, initial concentration of humic material, carbon dosage and particle size, and levels of various inorganic ions in solution. Many of the observed effects are attributable to the fact that humic substances are mixtures of compounds and that their adsorption is therefore a multicomponent process. The distribution of adsorptivities within these mixtures appears to vary with the presence of certain ions, most notably Ca2+ and Mg2+. These findings have been applied to bench-scale granular carbon columns and to powdered-carbon slurry systems. The results are discussed from both theoretical and application points of view.
