Adsorption of 1-naphthyl-n-methyl carbamate by selected soils from lake naivasha region in kenya : adsorption properties and related thermodynamic data
semanticscholar(2016)
Abstract
The adsorption properties of 1naphthol N-methylcarbamate (Carbaryl) by soils in aqueous solutions from Lake Naivasha was studied in terms of the first order model of a binary solution, which is expressed as follows: n SX S nX and ] [ ] /[ ] [ S X SX K n n , .............................................................(1) X is the chemical species of interest, carbaryl (pesticide) , S is the substrate (soil particles), K is the adsorption equilibrium constant and n SX is the particle-pesticide complex. According to this model, the apparent adsorption equilibrium constant K’ is given by equation 2: ln[x]ads =ln(nk’) + n(ln[x]e + [sxn]w )............................................................................(2) where [ X ]ads is concentration of X in adsorbed state. [ X ]e is the concentration of X in solution at equilibrium. [ n SX ]w is the pesticide adsorption site complex in the suspension at equilibrium. The average values of ' K (the apparent adsorption equilibrium constant), n and ∆G’ (the apparent adsorption free energy) for Lake Naivasha soils obtained for Carbaryl were 20.56, 0.63 and -7.26 KJ/mol, respectively.
