Enhanced adsorptive removal of rifampicin and tigecycline from single system using nano-ceria decorated biochar of mango seed kernel
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) represent an emerging class of contaminants. With a potential to negatively impact human health and the ecosystem, existence of pharmaceuticals in the aquatic systems is becoming ...
Functionalized cellulose nanocrystals extracted from date pits as agricultural waste for the efficient remediation of molybdenum from groundwater: Performance and mechanistic studies
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
The adsorption technique has proven to be an excellent option for treating contaminated water. This work was designed to investigate the efficient remediation of molybdenum (Mo(VI)) from groundwater by using a novel adsorbent ...
Purification of colloidal oil in water emulsions by cationic adsorbent prepared from recycled polyethylene waste
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
This study deals with removing crude oil droplets from colloidal oil in water emulsions. The target was the development of efficient adsorbents for the tertiary treatment of industrial-produced water (PW). The novel adsorbent ...
Eco-structured adsorptive removal of tigecycline from wastewater: Date pits’ biochar versus the magnetic biochar
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2020 , Article)
Non-magnetic and magnetic low-cost biochar (BC) from date pits (DP) were applied to remove tigecycline (TIGC) from TIGC-artificially contaminated water samples. Pristine biochar from DP (BCDP) and magnetite-decorated biochar ...
Adsorption of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid onto date seeds activated carbon: Equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies
(2012 , Article)
Adsorption isotherm and kinetics of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) herbicide on activated carbon prepared from Barhi date seeds were determined from batch tests. The effects of contact time, initial herbicide ...
Batch study for herbicide bentazon adsorption onto palm oil fronds activated carbon
(2012 , Article)
The adsorption of herbicide bentazon from aqueous solution onto activated carbon derived from palm oil fronds (PFAC) was investigated through batch study. The effects of both; initial concentration of the bentazon (ranging ...
Crosslinked chitosan–montmorillonite composite and its magnetized counterpart for the removal of basic fuchsin from wastewater: Parametric optimization using Box-Behnken design
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
Treating wastewater polluted with organic dyestuffs is still a challenge. In that vein, facile synthesis of a structurally simple composite of chitosan with montmorillonite (CS-MMT) using glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker ...
Effect of gas templating of resorcinol-formaldehyde xerogels on characteristics and performances of subsequent activated carbons
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Gas-templated resorcinol formaldehyde-activated carbon xerogels (GT-RF-ACXs) were prepared from resorcinol-formaldehyde xerogels that were templated by infusing different gases (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, methane, ethylene, ...
Single and multi-component adsorption of aromatic acids using an eco-friendly polyaniline-based biocomposite
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
The polyaniline coated with an agricultural waste (Argan nut shell) was prepared via in-situ chemical polymerization and used as an adsorbent material for removal of trimellitic (Tri), hemimellitic (Hemi) and pyromellitic ...
A carbon dot-based clay nanocomposite for efficient heavy metal removal
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2023 , Article)
Carbon dots and their derivatives with fascinating photoluminescence properties have recently attracted tremendous scientific attention. This work describes the preparation of novel fluorescent bentonite clay (B), modified ...
