Green synthesis of MNO nanoparticles using abutilon indicum leaf extract for biological, photocatalytic, and adsorption activities
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
We report the synthesis of MnO nanoparticles (AI-MnO NAPs) using biological molecules of Abutilon indicum leaf extract. Further, they were evaluated for antibacterial and cytotoxicity activity against different pathogenic ...
Modified os sepiae of Sepiella inermis as a low cost, sustainable, bio-based adsorbent for the effective remediation of boron from aqueous solution
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2022 , Article)
The occurrence of boron in low concentration is essential; however, a higher concentration of boron source in water has a toxic effect on humans as well as have retard effect on agricultural plant growth. Thus, the affordable ...
Purification of emulsified oily polluted waters with modified melamine foams
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Oil and gas industry operations produce tremendous amounts of wastewater (produced water; PW). Tertiary treatment of the PW in the final treatment stage is challenging due to the presence of colloids with sizes < 500 nm ...
The recovery of strontium ions from seawater reverse osmosis brine using novel composite materials of ferrocyanides modified roasted date pits
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
In this study, three types of adsorbents were used to remove and recover strontium ions (Sr2+) from aqueous and brine solution of seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO), namely roasted date pits (RDP) and RDP modified using copper ...
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 ...
