Hybrid coagulants have recently received attention in water and wastewater treatment
technologies mainly due to their cost-efficiency and exceptional performance. As such, this …

Nowadays, access to clean water sources worldwide and particularly in Southern Africa is
inadequate because of its pollution by organic, inorganic, and microorganism contaminants …

Due to rapid industrialization, urbanization, and surge in modern human activities, water
contamination is a major threat to humanity globally. Contaminants ranging from organic …

Natural polymer Moringa oleifera seed as coagulant and bentonite clay as adsorbent were
used for preparing novel composite coagulant. Results obtained from FTIR, SEM, TEM and …

Chitosan (CS)-based nanocomposite materials are highly prone to swelling when in contact
with water. It is therefore essential to modify them to enhance their resistance to swelling, in …

Identifying the characteristics of an ideal system in nature and comparing it with existing real
system in a given area for possible improvement is one of the research methods in research …

In this work, hydrophobic silica aerogels were synthesized using sol-gel method and drying
at ambient pressure. The surface morphology, pore size, and the presence of functional …

Abstract seed (MOS) biopolymers and bentonite clay separately have their own heavy metal
removal efficiency. However, it is not sufficient for drinking water treatment because of the …

The accessibility of safe drinking water is currently a critical concern; the challenge is to
develop an effective method to remove pollutants to ultra-low levels and recycle wastewater …

In this study Moringa oleifera-bentonite clay nanocomposite was successfully prepared by
the solution intercalation process. The intercalation of the cationic biopolymer Moringa …
