Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Agricultural residues, specifically canola meal (CM) and oat hull (OH), have been innovatively utilized to develop biosorbents for sorbing water vapor from the air. These biomaterials are comprised of hydrophilic functional groups that effectively perform air dehydration. Air, being non-polar, was used as a model gas in this study to simulate gas dehydration. In the current research, these materials were formed into pellets to produce high-quality biosorbents with controlled size, shape, and enhanced moisture uptake capacity. CM (309.48 mg/g) and OH (233.07 mg/g) pellets had higher or comparable water sorption capacities than commercialized adsorbents used for drying gases. The mixed-order kinetic model described the sorption process well and identified both mass transfer and sorption on active site steps (R2 > 0.991 and χ2 < 16.0). Regarding the OH pellet, sorption on active sites was the predominant kinetic mechanism at the beginning, followed by intraparticle diffusion until equilibrium. However, sorption on CM pellets was delayed at 4.2 min at the initial stage, owing to the external mass transfer resistance; then, intraparticle diffusion controlled the process until equilibrium. Adding sodium lignosulfonate (LSNa) lowered the initial sorption rate but enhanced the water uptake and strength of pellets. The addition of LSNa resulted in a 25% and 14% increase in the water uptake capacity of oat hull and canola meal pellets, respectively; conversely, it also caused an increase in the delay time for sorption on CM pellets at the beginning of the process, extending it to 9.50 min.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
