(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
The pollution of water by effluents from dye industries is a widely established environmental and health problem that requires new insights and urgent attention. In this study, methylene blue (MB) and acid blue 29 (AB29) ...
Natural and Low-Cost P. turgidum for Efficient Adsorption of Hg(II) Ions from Contaminated Solution: Isotherms and Kinetics Studies
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Mercury (II) ions (Hg(II)), a potent heavy metal water pollutant, was efficiently removed using a novel adsorbent prepared from Panicum turgidum roots by facile drying. The experimental conditions such as the solution pH, ...
Utilization of biochars as sustainable catalysts for upgrading of glycerol from biodiesel production
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Abundant bioglycerol generated via transesterification of triglycerides was used to synthesize valuable glycerol carbonate, GC. This was achieved by pyrolyzing cow dung (CDB) and fish scale (FSB) biowastes at various ...
Solid Sorbents as a Retrofit Technology for CO2 Removal from Natural Gas Under High Pressure and Temperature Conditions
(
Nature Research
, 2020 , Article)
The capture of CO2 under high pressure and temperature is challenging and is required in a number for industrial applications including natural gas processing. In this work, we examine the use of benchmark hybrid ultraporous ...
