Abstract

Studies of leaf litter as a sorption material with respect to oil at various temperatures have been carried out. It has been revealed that with process temperature increasing, the samples sorption capacity decreases. The oil sorption mechanism has been studied. It has been shown that the active sorption time was in the interval from 60 to 600 seconds. It has been proved that at the time of oil and sorption material contact for more than 600 seconds, the desorption process began. Kinetic dependencies of oil absorption by the proposed sorption material have been constructed and analyzed. The reaction order determination by a graphic method has showed that obtained functions with a high degree of correlation can be attributed to first-order heterogeneous reactions. Have been calculated thermodynamic parameters confirming the absence of a chemical reaction between oil and leaf litter. The carried out researches determine the most acceptable parameters of oil sorption by material based on leaf litter.
