TiO2 has the potential to be a viable anode material for high-power lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the lower electronic conductivity of TiO2 limits its practical applications. Here, the synthesis of novel TiO2 ...

Turning fish wastes into value-added products is an economic and eco-friendly step for elimination of such waste. In the present work, porous carbon–based material form fish scale (FSC) was prepared by calcium chloride ...

The problem of lost circulation is a direct consequence of the presence of fractures or high permeability. Lost circulation material (LCM) is used to treat the loss that occurs or proactively strengthen the wellbore of the ...

Amine functionalized carbon (AFC) was synthesized from raw oil fly ash and later utilized it for simultaneous removal of methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) pollutant dyes from aqueous medium. AFC was analyzed through ...

The present study investigates the removal of copper ions (Cu (II)) from aqueous solution using chemically treated rice husk (TRH). The chemical treatment was carried out using NaOH solution and the effect of contact time ...

The K2CO3 activation of defatted olive cake in N2 atmosphere was attempted for activated carbon (DOC-AC) preparation to test its ability for the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) and acid blue 29 (AB 29). The optimum conditions ...

Hydrochars from lignocellulose biomass have received an upsurge of interest in different fields, especially in the area of adsorption. Hydrothermally produced hydrochars are effective adsorbents for removing different ...

The use of conventional heating techniques in adsorbents preparation involves long synthesis time, high energy consumption, high cost and material fast firing. Recently, Microwave heating technique has been used to replace ...

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) ...

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, ...
