Generation of geothermal energy is associated with a significant amount of geothermal
fluids, which may be abundant in high-value metals, such as lithium, cesium, rubidium, and …

Developing cost-effective, efficient and environmentally friendly recovery process for gold
tailings is imperative for environmental protection and resource recycling. In this paper, we …

The copolymerization of styrene with divinylbenzene (DVB) in the presence of silica particles
produces a commercial silica-supported polymer (SiO 2-P) that was chemically reacted with …

Novel and environmentally benign adsorbents were prepared via a simple sulfuric acid
treatment process using the wastes of astringent persimmon, a type of biomass waste, along …

A low cost and environmentally “green” adsorption material was developed by anchoring
tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) groups on persimmon tannin and its potentiality for …

Effective recovery of gold from aqueous acidic chloride media was achieved with different
kinds of polysaccharides with different structures by treating with concentrated sulfuric acid …

In this study, a novel and cost-effective adsorbent, sulfonated modified rice straw (SRS), was
developed for the selective adsorption and extraction of gold ions from acidic solutions. The …

A lignin-based composite, PANI–EHL, was prepared in a facile manner from enzymatic
hydrolysis lignin (EHL) and aniline. The effects of initial pH value, biosorbent concentration …

Gold tailings are secondary resources, however, a suitable method to extract the remaining
gold has not yet been found. Thus, this study investigated that a gold tailings was pretreated …

Herein, we introduce efficient, cost-effective, and eco-friendly microalgae-based adsorbents.
Two microalgae with different compositions and sizes were employed as adsorbents with …
