Woody residues of the grape production chain as an alternative precursor of high porous activated carbon with remarkable performance for naproxen uptake from water
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2021-10-16)
Activated carbon prepared from grape branches was used as a remarkable adsorbent to uptake naproxen and treat a synthetic mixture from aqueous solutions. The material presented a highly porous texture, a surface area of ...
Adsorption performance of food red 17 dye using an eco-friendly material based on luffa cylindrica and chitosan
(Elsevier, 2021-11-22)
Luffa cylindrica (LC), a lignocellulosic material coveted for its versatility, was investigated to immobilize crosslinked chitosan and remove Food red 17 (FR17) dye from aqueous solutions. LC/chitosan was crosslinked with ...
Euterpe oleracea-based biochar for clonazepam adsorption: synthesis, characterization, adsorption properties, and toxicity assays
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2023-02-25)
The consumption of açaí fruit (Euterpe oleracea) has largely increased worldwide, resulting in a significant increase in the demand for its pulp. As a result, the small producing communities end up with large amounts of ...
Volcanic rock powder residues as precursors for the synthesis of adsorbents and potential application in the removal of dyes and metals from water
(Elsevier BV, 2021-11-30)
The present study verified the potential of volcanic rock powder residues originating from the extraction of semi-precious rocks in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, as precursors or adsorbents for dyes and metallic ...
Green β-cyclodextrin nanosponges for the efficient adsorption of light rare earth elements: cerium and lanthanum
(Elsevier, 2023-06-15)
During the past decades, the removal and recovery of Lanthanum (La) and cerium (Ce) have attracted considerable interest owing to their importance in several industrial processes. In the present work, green nanosponge ...
Application of araçá fruit husks (Psidium cattleianum) in the preparation of activated carbon with FeCl3 for atrazine herbicide adsorption
(Institution of Chemical Engineers, 2022-04)
The residual husks of the edible fruits of Psidium cattleianum were carbonized with FeCl3 as an activating agent and used as an adsorbent to remove the toxic herbicide. After the carbonization step, changes in the material’s ...
Adsorptive properties of highly porous activated carbon from açaí (Euterpe oleracea) towards the toxic herbicide atrazine
(Elsevier BV, 2023)
The great variety and possibilities of consumption of açaí pulp (Euterpe oleracea) have made its consumption increase considerably in recent years, mainly in Brazilian territory. The big problem is the generation of tons ...
Wood waste-based functionalized natural hydrochar for the effective removal of Ce(III) ions from aqueous solution
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2023)
In this study, a sustainable and easily prepared hydrochar from wood waste was studied to adsorb and recover the rare earth element cerium (Ce(III)) from an aqueous solution. The results revealed that the hydrochar contains ...
Polishing of painting process effluents through adsorption with biochar from winemaking residues
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2022-05-02)
A real industrial efuent from the pre-treatment and painting processes was polished through adsorption using alternative
biochar derived from grape pomace wastes. The biochar was produced in a pilot-scale plant from ...
One step acid modification of the residual bark from Campomanesia guazumifolia using H2SO4 and application in the removal of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic from aqueous solution
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2021)
The residual bark of the tree species Campomanesia guazumifolia was successfully modified with H2SO4 and applied to remove the toxic herbicide 2.4-dichlorophenoxyacetic (2.4-D) from aqueous solutions. The characterization ...
