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 ...
Composite carbon materials from winery composted waste for the treatment of effluents contaminated with ketoprofen and 2-nitrophenol
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021)
The present work consisted of preparing and characterizing composite carbon materials (WRCC) from raw winery residues (WR) activated with zinc chloride to produce a carbon adsorbent. The WRCC was used for the adsorption ...
Evaluation of Ocotea puberula bark powder (OPBP) as an effective adsorbent to uptake crystal violet from colored effluents: alternative kinetic approaches
(Universidad de la Costa, 2020-04-30)
The Ocotea puberula bark powder (OPBP) was evaluated as an effective adsorbent for the removal of crystal violet (CV) from colored effluents. OPBP was characterized and presented a surface with large cavities, organized ...
Transforming agricultural waste into adsorbent: application of Fagopyrum esculentum wheat husks treated with H2SO4 to adsorption of the 2,4-D herbicide
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021)
Wheat husks (Fagopyrum esculentum) were modified by treatment with sulfuric acid. The precursor material (FEWS) and the modified material (TFEWS) were characterized by different techniques to identify the structural changes ...
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 ...
Development of highly porous activated carbon from Jacaranda mimosifolia seed pods for remarkable removal of aqueous-phase ketoprofen
(2021)
In this work, a high porous activated carbon from Jacaranda mimosifolia was developed and employed for ketoprofen adsorption. After the pyrolysis process at 973.15 K, the material presented cavities with different sizes ...
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 ...
Adsorptive decontamination of wastewater containing methylene blue dye using golden trumpet tree bark (Handroanthus albus)
(Universidad de la Costa, 2019-09-05)
The golden trumpet tree bark (GTB), a wood-processing residue, was tested as adsorbent material for decontamination of wastewaters containing methylene blue dye (MB). The powdered material was preponderantly amorphous, ...
A review of the antibiotic ofloxacin: Current status of ecotoxicology and scientific advances in its removal from aqueous systems by adsorption technology
(Institution of Chemical Engineers, 2023)
It is estimated that the growth of the population, the augmented expectancy of life, and the emergence of new pandemics will significantly increase the consumption of pharmaceutical drugs in the coming years. Due to its ...
