Conversion of foliar residues of Sansevieria trifasciata into adsorbents: dye adsorption in continuous and discontinuous systems
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2022-09-04)
The study analyzed the potential of leaf powder prepared from the residual leaves of the species Sansevieria trifasciata, as a potential adsorbent for methylene blue (MB) removal. The equilibrium was reached fast for almost ...
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 ...
A review of the toxicology presence and removal of ketoprofen through adsorption technology
(Elsevier BV, 2022)
The present review was carried out to analyze the works developed using the adsorption technology to remove the anti-inflammatory ketoprofen (KET). The main factors that inflated the KET adsorption were analyzed. It was ...
Effective removal of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug from wastewater by adsorption process using acid-treated Fagopyrum esculentum husk
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2022)
In this work, buckwheat husks (Fagopyrum esculentum) were modified by acid treatment and posteriorly employed to remove the ketoprofen in batch adsorption. The characterization results indicated that a more irregular surface ...
Investigation of biochar from Cedrella fissilis applied to the adsorption of atrazine herbicide from an aqueous medium
(Elsevier BV, 2022)
Biochar was produced from the sawdust of the wood forest species Cedrella fissilis and later used as an adsorbent to remove atrazine herbicide from aqueous media. Biochar showed high thermal stability, an amorphous structure, ...
Application of biowaste generated by the production chain of pitaya fruit (Hylocereus undatus) as an efficient adsorbent for removal of naproxen in water
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2022-02-02)
Pharmaceutical compounds are a serious problem in the environment. They cause damage to the aquatic, animal, and human organisms and soon became considered emerging pollutants where their removal is extremely urgent. Among ...

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 ...
Improved adsorption of the toxic herbicide diuron using activated carbon obtained from residual cassava biomass (manihot esculenta)
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-11-04)
The production and consumption of cassava (Manihot esculenta) occur in several places worldwide, producing large volumes of waste, mostly in the form of bark. This study sought to bring a new purpose to this biomass through ...
