The presence of various forms of heavy metals (HMs)(eg, Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cr, Ni, As, Co, Hg, Fe, Mn, Sb, and Ce) in water bodies and sediment has been increasing due to industrial and …
Presence of copper within water bodies deteriorates human health and degrades natural environment. This heavy metal in water is treated using a promising biochar derived from …
The performance of Picralima nitida extract (PNE) in bio-coagulation-flocculation (BCF) for the reduction of chemical oxygen demand (COD) in municipal solid waste leachate (MSWL) …

This study investigates the use of synthesized mesoporous carbon in the fixed bed adsorption, as a promising process, to eliminate tetracycline from wastewater. In order to …
Acid mine drainage is the reaction of surface water with sub-surface water located on sulfur bearing rocks, resulting in sulfuric acid. These highly acidic conditions result in leaching of …
Di-carboxylic acid functionalized zeolites were synthesized from coal fly ash (CFA). The materials were then evaluated for adsorption of Cd (II) from spiked aqueous solutions and …
Coupled with the highly voluminous wastewater–palm oil mill effluent (POME)–usually produced during the palm oil processing, there are also abundant solid wastes such as …
