Adsorption of an anionic surfactant at air-liquid and different solid-liquid interfaces from solutions containing high counter-ion concentration
(
Springer Verlag
, 2015 , Article)
The self-assembly (adsorption) of the anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylbenzenesulphonate (SDBS), at air-liquid and different (octadecanethiol, β-mercaptoethanol, α-lipoic acid) solid-liquid interfaces from aqueous solutions ...
Petroleum refinery wastewater treatment: A pilot scale study
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
A three-step pilot plant was designed, fabricated and tested for the treatment of highly contaminated petroleum refinery wastewater. The three-step process consisted of an electrocoagulation (EC) unit, a biological treatment ...
Adsorption kinetic, equilibrium and thermodynamic studies of eosin-B onto anion exchange membrane
(
Desalination Publications
, 2019 , Article)
In this research, batch adsorption of anionic dye Eosin-B (EB) onto anion exchange membrane (AEM)
(BI) from aqueous solution has been investigated at room temperature. The effect of some operating
conditions such as ...
Positron annihilation study on polyaniline nanocomposite used for Pb(II) ion removal
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2016 , Article)
Nanocomposites of polyaniline (PANI) with three different concentrations of micrometre-sized sawdust are prepared in aqueous media via chemical casting method at room temperature. Thereafter, the removal efficiency of the ...
Kinetic, equilibrium and thermodynamic studies for adsorption of nickel ions onto husk of oryza sativa
(
Desalination Publications
, 2019 , Article)
This research focus onto batch adsorption of nickel ions (Ni(II)) onto husk of Oryza sativa (HOS) from aqueous solution at room temperature. Several techniques such as Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy ...
How the activation process modifies the hydrogen storage behavior of biomass-derived activated carbons
(
Springer US
, 2017 , Article)
Microporous activated carbons (ACs) derived from biomass residues, by virtue of their low-cost, good thermo-mechanical stability and easy adsorbent regeneration, are widely considered as hydrogen storage materials for ...
Self-assembly of a surfactin nanolayer at solid-liquid and air-liquid interfaces
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Surfactin, a sustainable and environmentally friendly surface active agent, is used as a model to study the adsorption of biosurfactants at hydrophobic and hydrophilic solid–liquid interfaces as well as the air–liquid ...
Peach resin coated silica particles for imidacloprid removal as a greener approach to water remediation
(
Desalination Publications
, 2018 , Article)
Pesticides are one of the major toxic pollutants that can be lethal even at trace levels. They generally enter into the water reservoirs through agricultural run-off and hence pose serious threat to flora and fauna of ...
Modulation of wettability, gradient and adhesion on self-assembled monolayer by counterion exchange and pH
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
In this study, two quaternary ammonium salts derived from L-lipoic acid were applied for self-assembled monolayers formation on rough structured gold surface. The derivatives differ in functionality since one possesses ...
Nanofibers of resorcinol–formaldehyde for effective adsorption of As (III) ions from mimicked effluents
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Article)
In the present study, the core–shell structured RF/PVA nanofibers have been developed and used for the adsorption of As3+ ions from the mimicked liquid effluents. Efficient-facile fabrication of the structured nanofibers ...
