Pyrolysis of Canarium schweinfurthii hard-shell: Thermochemical characterisation and pyrolytic kinetics studies
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Canarium schweinfurthii fruit used in food and cosmetics produces waste nuts with a hard shell (hard-shell) and kernel. The hard-shell contained lignin and holocellulose, besides 51.99 wt% carbon, 6.0 wt% hydrogen, 41.68 wt% ... -
Review on sustainable production of biochar through hydrothermal liquefaction: Physico-chemical properties and applications
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Other)This review examines in detail the production and characteristics of biochar resulting from hydrothermal liquefaction. Specifically, the impact of feedstocks and different process parameters on the properties and yield of ... -
Short-term greenhouse emission lowering effect of biochars from solid organic municipal wastes
( Center for Environmental and Energy Research and Studies , 2018 , Article)Qatar economy has been growing rapidly during the last two decades during which waste generation and greenhouse gas emissions increased exponentially making them among the main environmental challenges facing the country. ... -
Sludge-derived biochars: A review on the influence of synthesis conditions on pollutants removal efficiency from wastewaters
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Pyrolysis is a thermochemical process that permits the conversion of biomasses into energy (bio-oil and biogas) and a solid residue called biochar. The generation of biochar from lignocellulosic materials has been, for ... -
SYNTHESIS AND OPTIMIZATION OF GREEN ADSORBENTS FOR THE REMOVAL OF 2,4-DICHLOROPHENOL FROM THE WASTEWATER
(2023 , Master Thesis)2, 4-Dichlorophenol (2, 4-DCP) is a water-soluble contaminant that is frequently discovered in wastewater from a variety of industries, including triclosan's aerobic breakdown and pharmaceutical and fungicide production ... -
Synthesis of iron modified rice straw biochar toward arsenic from groundwater
( Institute of Physics Publishing , 2019 , Article)The potential of Fe modified biochar (BC) as an alternative, inexpensive adsorbent for removing As(V) from wastewater was investigated. BC was synthesized from the slow pyrolysis of rice straw and then modified with FeCl3. ... -
A systematic review on the bioremediation of metal contaminated soils using biochar and slag: current status and future outlook
( Springer , 2023 , Article Review)Heavy metals contaminated soils are posing severe threats to food safety worldwide. Heavy metals absorbed by plant roots from contaminated soils lead to severe plant development issues and a reduction in crop yield and ...
