SnO2-Containing Clinoptilolite as a Composite Photocatalyst for Dyes Removal from Wastewater under Solar Light
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Due to their adsorbent, ion exchange and catalytic properties zeolites are suitable for a variety of applications. We report on the photocatalytic activity of a readily available and inexpensive natural zeolite clinoptilolite ...
Unveiling a Recycling-Sourced Mineral-Biocellulose Fibre Composite for Use in Combustion-Generated NOx Mitigation Forming Plant Nutrient: Meeting Sustainability Development Goals in the Circular Economy
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Featured Application Surface flow filter for sorption of NOx in city/industrial pollution and conversion into a plant nutrient. Abstract NOx is unavoidably emitted during combustion in air at high temperature and/or pressure, ...
Prospect of Polysaccharide-Based Materials as Advanced Food Packaging
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
The use of polysaccharide-based materials presents an eco-friendly technological solution, by reducing dependence on fossil resources while reducing a product's carbon footprint, when compared to conventional plastic ...
Immobilized Alcalase on Micron- and Submicron-Sized Alginate Beads as a Potential Biocatalyst for Hydrolysis of Food Proteins
(Catalysts, 2021)
Enzymatic hydrolysis of food proteins is convenient method to improve their functional properties and physiological activity. Herein, the successful covalent attachment of alcalase on alginate micron and submicron beads ...
Thermodynamic and transport properties of biomass-derived furfural, furfuryl alcohol and their mixtures
(MDPI, 2021)
The limited reserves and well-known disadvantages of using fossil energy sources have increased the need for appropriate renewable substitutes in the production of various chemicals and materials. Biomass has been shown ...
Inorganically modified particles FeAl-LDH"SiO2 as reinforcement in poly (methyl) methacrylate matrix composite
(Royal Society Open Science, 2021)
Silica particles were obtained from rice husk to which layered double hydroxide particles were deposited (weight ratio 1 : 1). Fe2+-Al3+ layered double hydroxides (FeAl-LDH) were synthesized by co-precipitation with ratios ...
An Experimental Study of Mechanical Properties and Heat Transfer of Acrylic Composites with Structural and Surface Modified Al2O3 Particles
(International Institute for the Science of Sintering (IISS), 2020)
Thermal properties of acrylate-based composite combined with alumina-based particles were investigated. The composites were made of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) modified with dimethyl itaconate (DMI) as a matrix. Neat ...
Mechanical Properties of Biomass-derived Silica Nanoparticles Reinforced PMMA Composite Material
(Science of Sintering, 2022)
Rice husk was used to produce silica particles, which were then used to reinforce the polymer matrix. The synthesized SiO2 particles were characterized using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy ...
Amino-modified kraft lignin microspheres as a support for enzyme immobilization
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)
In this research, it has been demonstrated that amino-modified microspheres (A-LMS) based on bio-waste derived material, such as kraft lignin, have good prospects in usage as a support for enzyme immobilization, since ...
Use of chènevotte, a valuable co-product of industrial hemp fiber, as adsorbent for pollutant removal. Part i: Chemical, microscopic, spectroscopic and thermogravimetric characterization of raw and modified samples
(MDPI AG, 2021)
FINEAU (2021–2024) is a trans-disciplinary research project involving French, Serbian, Italian, Portuguese and Romanian colleagues, a French agricultural cooperative and two surface-treatment industries, intending to propose ...
