“Functionalized activated carbon with whey protein amyloid fibrils for adsorption of arsenic from water”

Abstract: Globally, more than 200 million people are exposed to elevated concentrations of arsenic in groundwater, thus representing an important environmental and public health problem. … Leer más

“Evaluation and analysis of the adsorption mechanism of three emerging pharmaceutical pollutants on a phosphorised carbon-based adsorbent: Application of advanced analytical models to overcome the limitation of classical models”

Abstract: The double layer adsorption of sulfamethoxazole, ketoprofen and carbamazepine on a phosphorus carbon-based adsorbent was analyzed using statistical physics models. The objective of this research … Leer más

“Effective removal of textile dye via synergy of adsorption and photocatalysis over ZnS nanoparticles: Synthesis, modeling, and mechanism”

Abstract: In this work, we prepared sulfur-zinc nanoparticles (ZnS-TGA) functionalized with thioglycolic acid by a hydrothermal method and tested their photodegradation ability by solar irradiation. ZnS-TGA were characterized by Fourier transform infrared … Leer más

Abstract: The mercury adsorption properties of carbon-based materials prepared from jacaranda (Jacaranda mimosifolia) and guava (Psidium guajava) seed wastes are reported and compared in this paper. … Leer más

“A circular economy-based valorization of agricultural residues to remove heavy metals from water: Adsorption and final disposal strategy”

Abstract: This manuscript analyzes the valorization of agricultural wastes as heavy metal adsorbents and their eco-friendly final disposal as mineral admixtures to manufacture cement-based construction … Leer más

“Separation of the Biofuel Methyl Ethyl Ketone from Aqueous Solutions Using Avocado-Based Activated Carbons: Synthesis Conditions and Multilayer Adsorption Properties”

Abstract: This study reports the separation of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), a relevant compound in the biorefinery context, from aqueous solutions using activated carbons derived from … Leer más

“Reuse of drinking water treatment sludge for the removal of antibiotics: The case study of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim based on advanced statistical physics models”

Abstract: This study reports the valorization of drinking water treatment sludge (DWTS) to remove antibiotics from water. Sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim were used as model antibiotic … Leer más

“Purification of Biodiesel Polluted by Copper Using an Activated Carbon Prepared from Spent Coffee Grounds: Adsorption Property Tailoring, Batch and Packed-Bed Studies”

Abstract: Biodiesel produced via oil transesterification often contains metallic impurities, such as copper, which affects its quality and engine performance. This study explores the use … Leer más

“Isotherm Modeling and Statistical Physics Interpretation of Dye and Pesticide Adsorption on Activated Carbons for Environmental Remediation”

Abstract: A multilayer adsorption model was used to explain the adsorption mechanism of two toxic organic pollutants, methylene blue (MB) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), on … Leer más

“Incorporation of active phases of iron and bone char in clay ceramic monolith for arsenic removal from aqueous solutions”

Abstract: Clay-based monoliths with incorporation of active phases derived from the waste of the metallurgical and livestock industries (powdered iron and bone meal) and composite … Leer más
