This paper presents a method for removing silver ions from aqueous solutions using
sorption on biological material (coconut fiber). Sorption was carried out in a bath-type bed …

A novel adsorbent of mesoporous carbon stabilized alumina (MC/Al 2 O 3) was synthesized
through one-pot hard-templating method. The adsorption potential of MC/Al 2 O 3 for Cd (II) …

Sulphuric acid hydrolysis of coconut coir under case I (time: 2–10 min; temperature: 160–
240° C; acid concentration: 0.2–0.7% w/w) and case II (time: 10–60 min; temperature: 100 …

This study employed coconut copra to adsorb cadmium and investigated its adsorption
behavior via isotherm models. A total of seven isotherm models, namely Langmuir …

The present study investigates the effects of chemical treatment in characterising the
physicomechanical properties of coir geotextiles. Two woven and two non woven coir …

As indústrias têxteis utilizam grandes quantidades de água nos processos de tingimento e
beneficiamento das fibras, gerando volumes elevados de efluentes contendo corantes …

Presence of trace metal pollutants in the aquatic system is a worldwide foremost concern.
The present investigation was an attempt to find out the novel biosorbent for the removal of …

In this study, samples of pristine and chemically modified coconut shells are used as
adsorbents for the removal of crystal violet from an aqueous solution. The modification …

Textile industries use large amounts of water in the processes of dyeing and processing of
textile fibers, generating high volumes of wastewater containing dyes, surfactants, inorganic …

Heavy metal pollution and waste management are two major environmental problems faced
in the world today. Anthropogenic sources of heavy metals, especially effluent from …
