Improper discharge of waste dry cell batteries and untreated antibiotics laden effluents to the
environment pose serious threat to the sustenance of the ecosystem. In this study, synthesis …

Retort carbonisation is a novel technology especially suited to the sub-Saharan Africa
energy conversion challenges. This study aims to produce and characterise biochar from …

Carbon-based nanomaterials (CBNs) have drawn a lot of attention due to their distinct
physical and chemical properties. CBNs, such as fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, carbon …

In this study, the adsorption of Ni (II) and Cu (II) ions from aqueous solutions by powdered
Delonix regia pods and leaves was investigated using batch adsorption techniques. The …

The suitability of waste glass as an eco-friendly adsorbent for the removal of crystal violet
(CV) dye, Pb2+ and Cd2+ heavy metal ions in waste water samples was investigated in …

Introduction: Laccase is a muilti-copper enzyme that directs oxidation of compounds by
reducing oxygen to water molecules. It has been identified as a significant enzyme which …

This study focussed on the efficacy of two treatments, commercial-hardwood biochar and
Delonix regia pods biomass, an agricultural waste, as amendment to tropical soils …

The biosorption process of lead (II) and cadmium (II) ions onto blackthorn (Paliurus spina-
christi Mill.) was clarified by characterizing the biosorbent with Fourier-transform infrared …

Different treatment methods have been adopted for the removal of dyes from wastewaters in
order to prevent or reduce their hazardous effects on living organisms and on the …

The use of biochar obtained from various sources to effectively immobilize heavy metals in
soils have been widely reported, its use to remediate soils may reduce the problem of soil …
