Wastewater has a high concentration of dyes and heavy metals, which are the two most
significant contaminants. Due to their high toxicity and vulnerability, they possess a potential …

Activated carbon samples were prepared from peanut shell by conventional pyrolysis (P
sample) and microwave irradiation followed by pyrolysis (MW-P sample). These samples as …

Natural water resources are polluted due to human activities like discharge from municipal
and industrial wastewater. In general industrial wastewater contains toxic chemicals like …

In this work, the excision of hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) was studied from an aqueous
solution using the chemically modified arecanut leaf sheath (CALS) as a novel bio …

Biomass-derived activated carbons have gained significant attention as electrode materials
for supercapacitors (SCs) due to their renewability, low-cost, and ready availability. In this …

Cr (VI) compounds are the most dangerous for human health and the environment,
therefore, the study of their adsorption features is of great interest. A comprehensive study of …

In the present study, the thermal conversion of Arachis hypogaea (groundnut) husk into
biochar and its subsequent application in the adsorptive removal of Cr (VI) from an aqueous …

There is a need for the removal of hexavalent chromium from contaminated water prior to its
discharge into the environment, as part of industrial effluents, due to its toxic nature. In this …

Biosorbents prepared from the waste of Arachis hypogea (peanut) shells, Ziziphus
mauritiana (Indian jujube/Ber) sawdust and Cassia fistula (amaltas) leaves were used for the …

Cr (VI) is a toxic water pollutant, which causes cancer and mutation in living organisms.
Adsorption has become the most preferred method for removal of Cr (VI) due to its high …
