The present paper investigates the surface modification of activated carbon (AC) by alkaline
(NaOH) and dye removal ability of the surface modified activated carbon (SMAC). Acid Red …

Rapid urbanization has led to the generation of a large quantum of complex wastewater
comprising of recalcitrant organic and inorganic pollutants. The inability of the conventional …

Effective and low-cost removal of dye and heavy metals from wastewater still is a great
challenge for researchers. Adsorption using activated carbon is widely used in removing …

Dyes are colored compounds which are visible even at trace concentrations. Due to their
recalcitrance and esthetic persistence, certain methods are unable to effectively eliminate …

Sludge, a byproduct produced from numerous industrial activities, has been recognized as
an ecological burden for the society. However, viewing the sludge, as a carbon-rich material …

Water scarcity and pollution rank equal to climate change as the most intricate
environmental turmoil for the 21st century. Today, the percolation of textile effluents into the …

During the last decade, several physico-chemical and biological techniques have been
developed to remove colour from textile wastewaters. Some of these techniques rely on and …

Activated carbon (AC) has been widely used in wastewater treatment for a long time.
However, the applications of the AC are limited by the difficulties associated with their …
