Cyanide is used extensively in the electroplating and mining industries due to its strong
affinity to metal cations. Commercial granular activated carbon (GAC) was used as …

In this study, the removal of free cyanide from aqueous solutions by activated carbon was
investigated. Effects of metal impregnation (Cu and Ag), aeration, and concentrations of …

Mercury (Hg) is one of the most harmful metals to human health. Combined with cyanide
(CN−), Hg forms a stable complex (Hg (CN) 2) that is difficult to remove from solution …

The ability of lignite-activated carbon (LAC) and iron-impregnated activated carbon (FeAC)
obtained from Gölbaşı lignite to remove cyanide ions from aqueous solution by adsorption …

In this study the removal of free cyanide from aqueous solutions by air oxidation and
adsorption was investigated. Effects of air and pure oxygen, and catalyst on the rate and …

Impregnated activated carbons are carbonaceous adsorbents which have silver and nickel
distributed on their surface. The impregnation optimises the existing properties of the …

Nanocrystalline metal oxides including TiO 2, Fe 2 O 3, and ZnO and their combinations
were impregnated on activated carbon (AC) and characterized by XRD, FTIR, and FESEM …

Lab scale studies were carried out to investigate the feasibility of employing zero-valent iron
as a potential adsorbent for removal of cyanide from a synthetic coke oven wastewater. A …

The investigation was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of using activated carbon
(AC) in conjunction with ultrafiltration (UF) in the removal of methylene blue (MB) from …

Cyanide contamination in steel industry wastewater is a long-standing environmental
problem. The present work demonstrates the usability of coke breeze, a carbon rich by …
