High-surface-area mesoporous MgO-templated nanocarbons made with reinforcing fibres from scrap tyres and a bituminous waste as carbon precursor were employed for the simultaneous adsorption of Cd and reactive Cibacron Brilliant Yellow 3G-P dye. A commercial activated carbon (AC) Darco KB-WJ was also used for comparison purposes. The effect of the pH of the solution was studied to establish whet...

This study investigates the adsorption behavior of Reactive Black 5 (RB) and Reactive Yellow 176 (RY) from aqueous solution on coal fly ash (FA-CO), HCl-treated coal fly ash (TFA-HCl), and biomass fly ash (FA-BM). In preliminary study, the FA-BM showed the greatest dye adsorption capacity of both dyes, compared to FA-CO and TFA-HCl. Hence only for the FA-BM, the effects of various experiment pa...

introduction: dye removal from industrial wastewater has been considered as one of the most environmental issues. recently, new methods of treatment such as catalytic ozonation have been used to increase dye removal efficiency. so, the efficiency of catalytic ozonation by copper coated zeolite as a catalyst in the removal of reactive red 198 was investigated. materials & methods: in order to re...
