where, Cenergy is the energy required to pump the solution (kWh/
m3), CMH is the amount of adsorbent consumed (kg/m3) and Celuent
is the amount of eluent used (kg/m3). The letters x (0.088 US$/
kWh), y (28 US$/kg) and z (8.2 US$/kg) were unit prices for the
Turkish republic of northern Cyprus market in April 2016. The industrial electrical energy price is denoted as x, magnetic hybrid
adsorbent including modification as y and z represent the eluent
HCl (0.001 M). Based on optimised boron recovery experimental
runs, 1 m3 of the boron solution (100 mg/L) consumed 0.6 kg/m3 of
MH, 2.0 kWh/m3 of energy to pump the solution and 1.49 kg/m3 of
eluent (HCl).
