Pharmaceutical wastewater treatment using graphene oxide derivatives
(2019-12)
The rising problem of pharmaceutical contamination in different water bodies calls for a swift action in the treatment and removal of these emerging pollutants from water using advanced methods. Adsorption is employed as ...
Scale-Up of Self-Regenerating Semi-Batch Adsorption Cycles through Concurrent Adsorption and Reduction of Cr(VI) on Sheep Wool
(MDPI, 2020)
A previous publication by our group reported that adsorption of Cr(VI) on sheep wool reached 99% when allowed a long residence time, with concurrent reduction to Cr(III). In this study, the process was scaled up by optimizing ...
Selective removal of dual dyes from aqueous solutions using Metal Organic Framework (MIL-53(Al))
(Elsevier, 2020)
The adsorption process of the cationic dye Malachite Green (MG) and the anionic dye Methyl Orange (MO) onto a MOF, namely, MIL-53(Al) was studied under several experimental parameters. Batch experiments were performed to ...
Removal of Hexavalent Chromium from Wastewater using Modified Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes
(2018-12)
Recently, the interest and research on the removal of heavy metals from wastewater have dramatically increased due to the adverse effects they have on humans, flora and fauna. Chromium, which is a heavy metal, is the tenth ...
Development of Activated Carbon Fibers for Organic Removals
(2017-11)
Phenols are classified to be one of the most hazardous pollutants found in wastewater. They are discharged into rivers, lakes and seas, causing adverse effects on the enviromental and human health. Adsorption is a well-known ...
Modeling Adsorption Data of Hydrocarbons on 13X Zeolite using the Gaussian Adsorption Isotherm Model
(2013-01)
Subcritical and supercritical adsorption data available in the literature for alkanes, alkenes and aromatics on 13X zeolite are correlated using the Gaussian adsorption model. This model is specified by three parameters: ...
Adsorptive Removal of Dyes from Aqueous Solutions Using Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs)
(2019-04)
Synthetic dyes are commonly found in industrial wastewater due to their wide application as colorants in the textile, paper, food, leather and plastic industries. Among the various treatment methods, adsorption is generally ...
Corrosion Inhibition of Mild Steel using Fig Leaves Extract in Hydrochloric Acid Solution
(ResearchGate, 2011)
The inhibition effect of Fig leaves extract on corrosion of mild steel in 2M acid solution was investigated using traditional weight loss measurements and various electrochemical techniques. Corrosion inhibition efficiency ...
Corrosion Inhibition of Mild Steel using Potato Peel Extract in 2M HCl Solution
(ResearchGate, 2011)
The inhibitive effect of naturally available potato peel extract (PPE) toward the corrosion of mild steel in 2M HCl solution has been investigated by weight loss and electrochemical techniques. The results showed increase ...
