ginger waste material (gwm) has been utilized as adsorbent for removal of hazardouspatent blue vf (pbvf) dye from aqueous solution. batch adsorption experiments wereperformed as a function of ph, contact time, dye concentration, adsorbent dose and temperature.the optimum ph required for the maximum adsorption was found to be 2. the experimentalequilibrium adsorption data were tested using langm...

nickel is one of the toxin heavy metals in surface waters. developing new approaches aimed at removing heavy metals from aqueous solutions that are simultaneously economical and environmentally friendly is of great importance. the purpose of this study will be using nano-lignocellulose adsorbent as a natural material to remove nickel heavy metal. in this study, several important environmental p...

the steel slag is the main by-product of steel industry. the aim of this study using the steel slag as a low-cost absorbent in order to remove cadmium pollutant from industrial wastewater. some factors that affect the process of cadmium removal by steel slag such as ph, contact time, absorbent dosage and cadmium initial concentration has been studied. standard solution of synthetic wastewater i...

High surface area and highly mesoporous activated carbon fibers (ACF) were obtained by physical activation of natural precursors (vetiver roots and bagasse) with steam and chemical activation using phosphoric acid. The textural characteristics of the activated were determined by nitrogen adsorption study and mercury porosimetry and showed that interesting porosity were obtained (SBET up to 1600...

background: the presence of lead in natural waters has become an important issue around the world. lead has been identified as a highly toxic metal that can cause severe environmental and public health problems and its decontamination is of utmost importance. the aim of this work was to evaluate the adsorption of lead (pb(ii)) on waste tea leaves as a cheap purification method. methods: in this...

The objective of this study was to determine the performance of modified commercial powdered activated carbon (MCPAC) in removal of ammonia from aqueous solution. The effects of adsorbent dosage (0.5–1.5 g/L), ammonia concentration (100–200 mg/L), pH (3 to 9) and contact time (2 to 120 min) were examined. In this study, experiments were performed based on Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The...
