Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) modified with sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) were synthe-sized, characterized and successfully used for the removal of Pb2+ from aqueous solutions. Adsorp-tion results revealed that this ...

The adsorption of phosphate ion onto natural reed (Arundo donax) was studied in this work. The effect of phosphate initial concentration, adsorbent dose, pH, temperature, and salt addition on adsorption uptake was investigated. ...

In this study, a relevant literature has been reviewed focusing on the carbon dioxide capture technologies in general, such as amine-based absorption as conventional carbon dioxide capturing technology, aqueous ammonia-based ...

Eutrophication phenomena occurred at JUST constructed pond. The main reason of this eutrophication process is the wastewater effluent of the campus wastewater treatment plant. This is due high nitrate content of the water ...

The oil and gas industry has had to deal with a massive amount of waste water as a bi-product of the exploration of oil and gas. This waste water referred to as produced water (PW) and the amount of PW increases with the ...

Different activated carbons were produced from sewage sludge taken from Sharjah waste water treatment plant. Carbonization and activation were carried out in steam environment without an external flowing inert stream or ...

Adsorption is a well-known method for high efficiency in treatment of water and wastewater at low costs. It is a promising method that can compete strongly with conventional purification methods. Carbon-based materials ...

Organic dyes released from many industries such as textile, leather, and paper industries can be a threat to the environment and living creatures. Adsorption stands out as one of the favorite dye removal methods among the ...

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 ...

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 ...
