Influence of diesel acidification on dibenzothiophene removal: A new desulfurization practice
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Commercial diesel is often loaded with organosulphur compounds including hard-to-remove dibenzothiophene DBT and other derivatives. Following uncommon and simple procedure, dibenzothiophene was selectively removed upon ...
Photocatalytic activity of transition metal ions-loaded activated carbon: Degradation of crystal violet dye under solar radiation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In this work, activated carbon (AC) was prepared from date palm stone by chemical activation method. Its properties were investigated, the surface of the AC was found to be acidic (pHpzc of 3.95), Brunauer-Emmet-Teller ...
Evaluation of an activated carbon packed bed for the adsorption of phenols from petroleum refinery wastewater
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The performance of an adsorption column packed with granular activated carbon was evaluated for the removal of phenols from refinery wastewater. The effects of phenol feed concentration (80–182 mg/l), feed flow rate (5–20 ...

The main objective is to contribute via this study, in solving an environmental issue and helping Qatar in finding suitable water resources; useful in agriculture. Qatar faces diverse water challenges; the number one that ...
Carbon dioxide sequestration and methane removal from exhaust gases using resorcinol-formaldehyde activated carbon xerogel
(
Springer
, 2013 , Article)
The world is faced with intrinsic environmental issues. Among these issues, the minimization of greenhouse gas emission to acceptable levels presents a high priority. This study seeks to help to reduce the greenhouse effect ...
Adsorption energy and pore-size distributions of activated carbons calculated using Hill's model
(
Multi-Science Publishing Co. Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
An integral equation derived using a statistical physics treatment by considering the adsorption energy distribution (AED) was used to model the adsorption of ethylene and ethane on resorcinol-formaldehyde-based activated ...
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 ...
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, ...
