Banana Pseudo–stem (BPS) is an annual renewable agricultural by–product with a potential
for valorization in the production of paper, textile fibre or new bio–based materials. A gradual …

In this work, a simplified and cost-effective chlorite pretreatment method to improve the
hydrolysabiliy of biomass was developed. Compared to common used sodium chlorite …

Uranium (VI) is an important strategic resource in the development of nuclear energy with
4.5 billion tons in the seawater. However, because of the low concentration of U (VI) and the …

Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is an appealing industrial chemical obtained by
modification of cellulose with redundant applications in food, pharmaceuticals, paints …

In this current paper, we perform a theoretical examination of adsorption systems
undertaken through the application of statistical physics modeling to experimental data …

The properties of phosphorylated kraft fibers, including their flame retardancy and behavior
in water, such as electrical charge and swelling capacity, were investigated in this study …

Furfural residues (FRs) were pretreated with ethanol and a green liquor (GL) catalyst to
produce fermentable sugar. Anthraquinone (AQ) was used as an auxiliary reagent to …

Furfural residues (FRs) is an industrial waste material with an enormous potential for bio-
ethanol production. In this study, FRs were pretreated with green liquor (GL) combined with …

Adsorption is considered the most favorable method for heavy metal removal. In this paper,
a low-cost, high-efficiency heavy metal adsorbent, mannitol-modified loofah (MML) was …

The potential of banana stem fiber (BSF) as a low cost biosorbent for Hg (II) removal was
studied. HCl treatment increased the cellulose accessibility which led to an enhanced …
