Industrial wastewater volume reduction through osmotic concentration: Membrane module selection and process modeling
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Osmotic concentration (OC), a form of forward osmosis (FO) but without draw solution recovery, can be applied for reducing wastewater disposal volumes in the oil & gas industry. Within this industry, wastewater is often ...
G-C3N4/Ag@CoWO4: A novel sunlight active ternary nanocomposite for potential photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B dye
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Present study reports the fabrication of novel sunlight active heterogeneous photocatalyst, i.e. Ag@g-C3N4/CoWO4 for potential degradation of rhodamine B dye. The ternary nanocomposite was fabricated using thermal condensation ...
Optimization of a combined approach for the treatment of carbide slurry and capture of CO2
(
Science Publications
, 2016 , Article)
The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential use of electrocoagulation in the treatment of carbide slurry, a wastewater generated during the production of acetylene, and in the capture of carbon dioxide. An electrochemical ...
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 ...
Investigating the potential of using solid waste generated from stone cutting factories for phenol removal from wastewater: A study of adsorption kinetics and isotherms
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Remarkably toxic, phenol requires efficient elimination from water. This study investigates the utilization of solid waste generated by stone-cutting factories for extracting phenol from wastewater. The solid waste underwent ...
Coal fly ash supported CoFe2O4 nanocomposites: Synergetic Fenton-like and photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Rapid industrialization is causing a serious threat for the environment. Therefore, this research was aimed in developing ceramic cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanocomposite photocatalyst coated with coal fly ash (CFA-CoFe2O4) ...
Visible light assisted photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue using iodine doped Fe3O4-GO composite
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Environmental contamination and wastewater discharge from industrial activities are global issues that must be addressed immediately. The uncontrolled discharge of dangerous organic compounds constitutes a significant ...
Ternary silver tungstate-MoS2/graphene oxide heterostructure nanocomposite for enhanced photocatalysis under visible light and antibacterial activity
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Wastewater emanating out of industrial units is loaded with hazardous organic dyes. The hindrance in sunlight penetration into the water by this dye-loaded wastewater has led to disruption in an aquatic ecosystem. Along ...
The GO/Bi2O3/WO3 ternary hybrid composite as an efficient sunlight-driven heterogeneous photocatalyst for wastewater remediation
(
Springer Nature
, 2024 , Article)
Semiconductor photocatalysts with engineered heterostructure are gaining attention for environmental remediations. The combination of two or more metal oxides with support materials has proved an effective strategy for ...
