Recycling of Date Pits Into a Green Adsorbent for Removal of Heavy Metals: A Fractional Factorial Design-Based Approach
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2019 , Article)
Date pits (DPs) have been recycled into a low-cost adsorbent for removing of selected heavy metals (HMs) from artificially contaminated aqueous solutions. Adsorption of targeted HMs, both by raw date pits (RDP) and burnt ...
Kinetics of alkoxysilanes and organoalkoxysilanes polymerization: A review
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article Review)
Scientists from various different fields use organo-trialkoxysilanes and tetraalkoxysilanes in a number of applications. The silica-based materials are sometimes synthesized without a good understanding of the underlying ...
Eco-structured biosorptive removal of basic fuchsin using pistachio nutshells: A definitive screening design-based approach
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Biosorptive removal of basic fuchsin (BF) from wastewater samples was achieved using the recycled agro-wastes of pistachio nut shells (PNS). Seven adsorbents were developed; raw shells (RPNS) and the thermally activated ...
Bio-Waste Aloe vera Leaves as an efficient adsorbent for Titan Yellow from Wastewater: Structuring of a novel adsorbent using Plackett-Burman factorial design
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Titan yellow (TY), a triazene azo dye, was removed from contaminated wastewater samples using a green adsorbent recycled from Aloe vera leaves (AV) waste. Two adsorbents were developed-air-dried Aloe vera (ADAV) and thermally ...
Kinetics of alkoxysilanes hydrolysis: An empirical approach
(
Nature Research
, 2019 , Article)
Alkoxysilanes and organoalkoxysilanes are primary materials in several industries, e.g. coating, anti-corrosion treatment, fabrication of stationary phase for chromatography, and coupling agents. The hydrolytic polycondensation ...
Pomegranate peels as versatile adsorbents for water purification: Application of box–behnken design as a methodological optimization approach
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Pomegranate peels (PGP) were tested as a green adsorbent for the removal of Ni(II) from contaminated water samples. Both raw (RPG), and char/burnt peels (BPG) were tested. A multivariate analysis approach, Box–Behnken (BB) ...
