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 ...
Efficient removal of naproxen from aqueous solution by highly porous activated carbon produced from Grapetree (Plinia cauliflora) fruit peles
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021)
In this work, jabuticaba (Plinia cauliflora) fruit peels were pyrolyzed in the presence of zinc chloride to generate a novel porous adsorbent to remove naproxen (NPX) from aqueous solutions. The maximum adsorption capacity ...
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 ...
Preparation of activated carbon from the residues of the mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) production chain for the adsorption of the 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic herbicide
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021)
The production of the edible mushroom Agaricus bisporus occurs on a world scale, where tons are constantly produced. At the same time, this production generates a large amount of waste that needs to be adequately conditioned. ...
Effective adsorption of harmful herbicide diuron onto novel activated carbon from Hovenia dulcis
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
A porous activated carbon from Hovenia dulcis was prepared using zinc chloride (ZnCl2) as an activating agent and applied to remove diuron in aqueous solutions. The carbon presented a smooth and regular surface, with an ...
Transformation of residual açai fruit (Euterpe oleracea) seeds into porous adsorbent for efficient removal of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid herbicide from waters
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-11-11)
Brazil’s production and consumption of açai pulp (Euterpe oleracea) occur on a large scale. Most of the fruit is formed by the pit, which generates countless tons of residual biomass. A new purpose for this biomass, making ...
