Plant barks are among the most widely applied low-cost biomass materials in the study of
pollutant removal from aqueous media. This paper extensively reviews the experimental …

The presence of pollutants in aqueous solution mainly from hazardous heavy metals and
metalloids is creating an environmental and social problem. The ammonia and nitrates are …

The adsorptive capability of superheated steam activated biochar (SSAB) produced from
Colocasia esculenta was investigated for removal of Cu 2+, Fe 2+ and As 5+ from simulated …

Plum stones, as a part of industrial and municipal organic waste, were used as a precursor
for preparation of a low-cost activated carbon. Engineered, thermochemically-modified …

In the present study, an alumina nanoparticle adsorbent is developed using solution
combustion synthesis method and is further utilized for the removal of zinc (Zn (II)) and color …

Soy hull was evaluated as a new material for Cr (VI) removal from aqueous solutions. Cr (VI)
removal was associated to a redox mechanism, in which Cr (VI) was reduced to Cr (III) by …

Present study deals with the development of a nano-porous adsorbent using neem bark for
the simultaneous removal of Cu (II), Cr (VI) and Zn (II). The developed adsorbent is …

With this increase in the urbanization and industrialization of the textile industry and paint
industry, there is a vast utilization of the dye in the daily use. This had led to the increase in …

Continuous adsorption experiments are carried out in a fixed-bed to evaluate the
performance of a newly developed low-cost adsorbent (activated neem bark, ANB) for the …

A variety of industrial effluents causing detrimental effects have been posing serious
environmental issues. Efforts have been taken to remove these effluents by using different …
