The contamination of water with heavy metals is a global issue. Its water solubility and non-
degradability nature convert it into a potential threat to human health as well as flora and …

Activated carbon has been recognized as one of the oldest and widely used adsorbent for
the water and wastewater treatment for removing organic and inorganic pollutants. The …

The effects of adsorbent characteristics on its water adsorption performance were
investigated using low-temperature oxygen plasma technology (LTOP) as a surface …

Global warming and water/air contamination caused by human activities are major
challenges in environmental pollution and climate change. The improper discharge of a …

Wastewater remediation by biopolymers and biopolymer composites is one of the most
interesting research topics in the current day scenario. Emerging pollutants abatement from …

The preparation of activated carbon fiber (ACF) with cotton as raw precursor via microwave
assisted H 3 PO 4 activation was explored in the present study. The influence of microwave …

In this study, the activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were prepared using cotton woven waste as
precursor. The cotton woven waste was first partly dissolved by 80% phosphoric acid and …

As a promising surface treatment technique, low‐temperature plasma (LTP) technology has
been widely used over the past two decades. Herein, the surface modification of carbon …

Continuous flow experiments (450 mL min− 1) were performed in household filter in order to
investigate the removal and/or inactivation of T4 bacteriophage, using granular activated …

Activated carbon fibers (ACFs) are widely used adsorbent materials for wastewater
treatment. In this study, polyacrylonitrile-based ACFs (PAN–ACF) were modified with oxalic …
