Application of eggplant peels powder for the removal of oil from produced water
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
The removal efficiency of oil from simulated samples of produced water (SPW) was studied using a low-cost adsorbent eggplant peel powder (EPP). The effects of pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time, and temperature on the ...
Novel method for water purification using activated adsorbents developed from sewage sludge
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Sewage sludge from Dubai was characterized using inductively coupled plasma and CHN elemental analysis. Selected sludge samples were washed with deionized water until constant conductivity was achieved. The sludge samples ...
Produced water treatment using olive leaves
(Desalination Publications, 2017-01)
Olive leaves powder (OLP) was employed as a low cost adsorbent for the removal of hexane extractable crude oil from simulated produced water. The effect of contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH, salinity as well as temperature ...
Removal of benzo (a) anthracene from water using a novel UAE sludge-based activated adsorbent
(Desalination Publications, 2017-12)
A new adsorbent material from sewage sludge of relatively high surface area (2,230 m2/g) was prepared by carbonization and chemical activation using steam at controlled semi-static conditions. The pore size distributions ...
