Sterilized plum pomace biochar as a low-cost effective sorbent of environmental contaminants
(Journal of Water Process Engineering, 2023)
The removal of environmental pollutants is significant because of their harmful effects on living organisms. Biochar is favorable as a natural adsorbent of environmental pollutants due to its advantages, such as environmental ...
Alkali activated slag cement doped with Zn-rich electric arc furnace dust
(Journal of Materials Research and Technology-JMR&T, 2020)
Steel production in electric arc furnaces yielding formation of two waste materials, toxic electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) and non-hazardous electric arc furnace slag (EAFS). EAFD presents a potential hazard to the ...
Green pH- and magnetic-responsive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) and Eucalyptus wood nanocellulose for controlled release of ibuprofen
(Cellulose, 2021)
pH- and magnetic-sensitive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA), nanocellulose (NC), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and magnetite particles (MN) were prepared as ibuprofen delivery system. NC was isolated ...
Determination of temperature stresses in CWR based on measured rail surface temperatures
(Construction and Building Materials, 2021)
The main aim of conducted research is determination of temperature stresses due to the uneven temperature distribution in CWR. This paper presents a methodology for determination of temperature stresses in CWR based on (1) ...
Novel azo pyridone dyes based on dihydropyrimidinone skeleton: Synthesis, DFT study and anticancer activity
(Dyes and Pigments, 2021)
Seven novel azo dyes with 2-pyridone and dihydropyrimidinone moieties have been synthesized and thoroughly characterized. The azo-hydrazone tautomerism has been investigated by experimental and theoretical approaches. The ...
Antioxidant activity of PLA/PCL films loaded with thymol and/or carvacrol using scCO2 for active food packaging
(Food Packaging and Shelf Life, 2020)
Present study was aimed to produce biodegradable films with antioxidant activity for active food packaging. Films of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with 5 wt% of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), denoted as PLA-5, were loaded with ...
Composite poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide)/poly(acrylic acid) hydrogels synthesized using UV and gamma irradiation: comparison of material properties
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Composite hydrogels capable of controlled drug delivery via ion exchange are an interesting group of materials for the construction of implantable drug reservoirs for electrically charged drugs. In this study, we synthesized ...
Utilization of gamma and e-beam irradiation in the treatment of waste sludge from a drinking water treatment plant
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
An increasing production of drinking water and a significant amount of waste in the form of treated sludge can lead to a serious environmental problem. The high organic content in the sludge, together with the high summer ...
Mechanism of mediated alkali peroxide oxidation and triplet versus singlet oxygen formation
(Nature Research, 2021)
Aprotic alkali metal-O-2 batteries face two major obstacles to their chemistry occurring efficiently, the insulating nature of the formed alkali superoxides/peroxides and parasitic reactions that are caused by the highly ...
Alkali activated slag cement doped with Zn-rich electric arc furnace dust
(Elsevier, 2020)
Steel production in electric arc furnaces yielding formation of two waste materials, toxic electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) and non-hazardous electric arc furnace slag (EAFS). EAFD presents a potential hazard to the ...
