Abstract Heavy metals (Cd, Ni, Zn, Cu, Cr, and Pb) are widely recognized as being
hazardous to human health and environmentally deleterious. Therefore water hyacinth is …

Water on Earth is a precious and finite resource, which is endlessly recycled in the water
cycle. Water, whose physical, chemical, or biological properties have been altered due to …

The use of low-cost activated carbon derived from bagasse, an agricultural waste material,
has been investigated as a replacement for the current expensive methods of removing …

This paper presents the feasibility of removal of basic dye Rhodamine-B from aqueous
solutions by using a low cost natural adsorbent perlite. Batch adsorption experiments were …

An inexpensive and effective adsorbent was developed from bagasse fly ash, obtained from
a sugar industry, for the dynamic uptake of lead and chromium. Lead and chromium are …

Successful removal of rhodamine B, fast green, and methylene blue from wastewater was
achieved using red mud, an aluminum industry waste. The percentage removals of …

Permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) are receiving a great deal of attention as an innovative,
cost-effective technology for in situ clean up of groundwater contamination. A wide variety of …

The bagasse fly ash, obtained from the local sugar industry, has been used as inexpensive
and effective adsorbent for the removal of lindane and malathion from wastewater. The …

Removal of heavy metal ions from wastewater by natural clinoptilolite has been well
investigated. However, the removal efficiency of heavy metals with natural clinoptilolite is not …

Ag+–Na+, Zn2+–Na+, and Cu2+–Na+ equilibria for clinoptilolite-rich mineral from Gördes
(Western Anatolia) were investigated at 25° C and 0.1 N total solution normality. While silver …
