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 ...
Optimization of ketoprofen adsorption from aqueous solutions and simulated effluents using H2SO4 activated Campomanesia guazumifolia bark
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2021)
This study used the bark of the forest species Campomanesia guazumifolia modified with H2SO4 to absorb the anti-inflammatory ketoprofen from aqueous solutions. FTIR spectra confirmed that the main bands remained after the ...
Synthesis of geopolymers from fly and bottom ashes of a thermoelectrical power plant for metallic ions adsorption
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2021)
A series of geopolymers were synthesized from fly and bottom ashes of a thermoelectrical power plant located in the Brazilian southern, aiming to add value for these wastes. The geopolymers were prepared in conventional ...
Adsorption of atrazine herbicide from water by diospyros kaki fruit waste activated carbon
(Elsevier, 2021-11-10)
In this work, Diospyros kaki fruit waste was employed as a precursor material to develop a high surface area activated carbon, which efficiently removed the toxic herbicide atrazine (ATZ) from synthetic water solutions and ...
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 ...
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 ...
