BET, FTIR, and RAMAN characterizations of activated carbon from waste oil fly ash
(
TUBITAK
, 2020 , Article)
Activated carbon (AC), a porous material with high pore volume, attracts increasing attention owing to
its potential applications in several fields. The development of a porous structure in AC marginally relies on both
the ...
Activated carbon-doped polystyrene fibers for direct contact membrane desalination
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
Membranes for direct contact membrane distillation were produced from electrospun polystyrene microfibers doped with activated carbon. The addition of activated carbon reduced the hydrophobicity of the fibers. Therefore, ...
The application of iron coated activated alumina, ferric oxihydroxide and granular activated carbon in removing humic substances from water and wastewater: Column studies
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2010 , Article)
The efficiency of iron coated activated alumina, ferric oxihydroxide and granular activated carbon for the removal of humic substance (HS) from water and wastewater was demonstrated in batch studies. This paper investigated ...
Kinetics of humics removal from water and wastewater using granular activated carbon, iron-coated activated alumina, and beta ferric oxihydroxide
(2010 , Article)
Application of kinetic models to represent the removal of humic substances from water and wastewater was investigated. An adsorbate-adsorbent system was represented by humic substances and three adsorbents, namely granular ...
Kinetics and thermodynamics of enhanced adsorption of the dye AR 18 using activated carbons prepared from walnut and poplar woods
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Activated carbons prepared from walnut and poplar woods are used as economical adsorbents for the rapid removal and fast adsorption of Acid Red 18 dye from the aqueous solutions; the kinetics, isotherm and thermodynamics ...
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 ...
Date pits activated carbon as an effective adsorbent for water treatment
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Book chapter)
Water pollution is becoming increasingly evident throughout the last few decades due to several anthropogenic reasons. Mitigating the pollution effects has become a priority to conserve the already limited water resources ...
