Iron Sulfide Scale Inhibition in Carbonate Reservoirs
(
American Chemical Society
, 2022 , Article)
Hydrocarbon production operations include water injection, varying stimulation approaches, and enhanced oil recovery techniques. These treatments often affect reservoir formation, production, and injection facilities. Such ...
Biochar from olive mill solid waste as an eco-friendly adsorbent for the removal of polyphenols from olive mill wastewater
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
In Tunisia, olive mill waste water (OMW) is discharged into evaporation ponds where they turn into solid waste (OMSW) and become a serious threat to the environment. This paper addresses for the first time how to valorize ...
An updated review on boron removal from water through adsorption processes
(
Springer Nature
, 2021 , Article)
Boron is an essential micronutrient that has raised much interest, given the narrow balance between its necessity and toxicity. Both natural and anthropogenic emissions of boron into water sources can eventually deteriorate ...
Occurrence and removal characteristics of phthalate esters from bottled drinking water using silver modified roasted date pits
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2021 , Article)
Background: This paper aims to investigate the occurrence and removal characteristics of phthalate esters from bottled drinking water using silver modified roasted date pits. Three adsorbents, namely roasted date pits ...
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 ...
Green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles for removal of carbamazepine in water and soil systems
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a significant increase in pharmaceutical releases (4 %), which created a pressing global need for solutions. In this study, we explored the use of zinc oxide nanoparticles (GS-ZnONPs) ...
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 ...
Investigation of lanthanum impregnated cellulose, derived from biomass, as an adsorbent for the removal of fluoride from drinking water
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
High concentrations of fluoride in drinking water can cause the disease fluorosis. Our scope goal is to develop an effective biopolymeric adsorbent for the removal of fluoride to below a specific safety limit set by the ...
Continuous adsorptive removal of glimepiride using multi-walled carbon nanotubes in fixed-bed column.
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Water pollution by emerging pollutants such as pharmaceutical and personal care products is one of today's biggest challenges. The presence of these emerging contaminants in water has raised increasing concern due to their ...
Desorption of chloramphenicol from ordered mesoporous carbon-alginate beads: Effects of operating parameters, and isotherm, kinetics, and regeneration studies
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
This study has investigated the desorption of an emerging contaminant, known as chloramphenicol (CPC), from ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC)-alginate beads. The effects of initial concentration, operating temperature, and ...
