Removal of cadmium from aqueous solutions by oxidized and ethylenediamine-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2010)
Surface functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by ethylenediamine, via chemical modification of carboxyl groups, using O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate, was ...
Removal of lead from water by amino modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2011)
Pristine, oxidized, ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine and triethylenetetramine modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (raw-MWCNT, o-MWCNT, e-MWCNT, d-MWCNT and t-MWCNT, respectively) were employed as adsorbents in order ...
Study of factors affecting Ni2+ immobilization efficiency by temperature activated red mud
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2011)
The waste red mud, remaining in remarkable quantities after the digestion of bauxite ores following the Bayer process, contains number of voluble minerals with excellent sorption properties towards aqueous heavy metals. ...
Chromium (VI) removal from aqueous solutions using mercaptosilane functionalized sepiolites
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2011)
Natural and acid-activated sepiolite samples were functionalized with (3-Mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane. By X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and differential thermal analysis it was shown ...
Synthesis and characterization of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate/itaconic acid/poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate) hydrogels
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2012)
Hydrogels based on 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), different poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylates (PEGDMA) and itaconic acid (IA) were prepared by free radical crosslinking copolymerization. The influence of different ...
Decolorization of textile dye CI Basic Yellow 28 with electrochemically generated active chlorine
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2012)
Reaction of the indirect electrochemical decolorization of cationic textile dye CI Basic Yellow 28 with electrochemically generated "active chlorine" has been studied, using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, ion chromatography, ...
ZnO/Ag hybrid nanocubes in alginate biopolymer: Synthesis and properties
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2014)
A procedure for the preparation of ZnO nanocubes in an alginate biopolymer was introduced. The obtained nanocubes were used for the preparation of ZnO/Ag heterostructures. High resolution scanning electron microscopy showed ...
Mathematical modeling of heavy metal ions (Cd2+, Zn2+ and Pb2+) biosorption by chemically modified short hemp fibers
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2011)
Biosorption, an innovative and low-cost effective method for removal of heavy metal ions from wastewaters, primarily depends on the diffusion of metal ions through the porous structure of sorbent and the resistance effects ...
The influence of citrate anion on Ni(II) removal by raw red mud from aluminum industry
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2013)
The removal of Ni(II) from aqueous solutions by raw red mud powder was studied in the absence and in the presence of citrate ligand, as a function of process parameters. Using lower initial Ni(II) concentration (10(-3) ...
SBA-15 templated mesoporous carbons for 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid removal
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2013)
The ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 was synthesized and used as a template for obtaining mesoporous carbon replicas. Adsorptive removal of pesticide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) from aqueous solutions onto two ...
