Thermodynamic and kinetic analysis of jarosite Pb–Ag sludge thermal decomposition for hydrometallurgical utilization of valuable elements
(Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2023)
Jarosite is a specific type of hazardous waste determined by the origin of the primary raw materials of the hydrometallurgical process of zinc production. It represents a very demanding raw material for further treatment ...
Alginate-Based Hydrogels and Scaffolds for Biomedical Applications
(MDPI, 2023)
Alginate is a natural polymer of marine origin and, due to its exceptional properties, has great importance as an essential component for the preparation of hydrogels and scaffolds for biomedical applications. The design ...
The study of composition-properties relationships for composite hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) and high concentrations of MFI zeolite
(Elsevier, 2023)
High concentrations of hydrophobic MFI zeolite (26.0–51.3 wt%) were successfully embedded in poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) network in simple, one-pot synthesis of PMAA-MFI composite hydrogels. The effects of zeolite ...
Green Processing of Neat Poly(lactic acid) Using Carbon Dioxide under Elevated Pressure for Preparation of Advanced Materials: A Review (2012–2022)
(MDPI, 2023)
This review provides a concise overview of up-to-date developments in the processing of neat poly(lactic acid) (PLA), improvement in its properties, and preparation of advanced materials using a green medium (CO2 under ...
Morphological assessment of cavitation caused damage of cordierite and zircon based materials using principal component analysis
(Elsevier Ltd, 2023)
The pattern recognition approach, explored by this study, applies the principal component analysis (PCA) as the most widely used statistical method with the aim of assessing the initiation and propagation of the cracks and ...
Speciation of Hexavalent Chromium in Aqueous Solutions Using a Magnetic Silica-Coated Amino-Modified Glycidyl Methacrylate Polymer Nanocomposite
(MDPI, 2023)
A new magnetic amino-functionalized polymeric sorbent based on glycidyl methacrylate was synthesized and used in the separation of chromium Cr(VI) oxyanions sorption from aqueous solutions in a static batch system. The ...
Synthesis, Characterization and Application of Biobased Unsaturated Polyester Resin Reinforced with Unmodified/Modified Biosilica Nanoparticles
(MDPI, 2023)
This paper presents sustainable technology for environmentally friendly composite production. Biobased unsaturated polyester resin (b-UPR), synthesized from waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) glycosylate and renewable ...
Dielectric and Structural Properties of the Hybrid Material Polyvinylidene Fluoride-Bacterial Nanocellulose-Based Composite
(MDPI, 2023)
In the search for environmentally friendly materials with a wide range of properties, polymer composites have emerged as a promising alternative due to their multifunctional properties. This study focuses on the synthesis ...
A Novel Strategy for the Separation of Functional Oils from Chamomile Seeds
(Springer, 2023)
The main aim of this study was to evaluate the oils from chamomile seeds as a new source of bioactive compounds suitable for human consumption. A green extraction technique with supercritical carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) at ...
Risk Evaluation of Pollutants Emission from Coal and Coal Waste Combustion Plants and Environmental Impact of Fly Ash Landfilling
(MDPI, 2023)
Emission factors (EFs) of gaseous pollutants, particulate matter, certain harmful trace elements, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from three thermal power plants (TPPs) and semi-industrial fluidized bed boiler ...
