Development of advanced floating poly(lactic acid)-based materials for colored wastewater treatment
(Journal of Supercritical Fluids, 2021)
The release of industrial wastewater into the ecosystem prompted our research on the development of an efficient and biodegradable material that can be used for wastewater treatment. We optimized preparation of porous ...
Technologically Sustainable Route for Metals Valorization from Jarosite-PbAg Sludge
(Minerals, 2021)
By-products from zinc hydrometallurgy are classified as hazardous waste with strong leaching toxicities. Even though numerous research papers are dedicated to valorizing valuable metals in it, the primary management route ...
Oxidized Hemp Fibers with Simultaneously Increased Capillarity and Reduced Moisture Sorption as Suitable Textile Material for Advanced Application in Sportswear
(Fibers and Polymers, 2021)
Applications of hemp fibers, as a promising natural material in the textile field, mostly require improved fiber properties. In this paper, the oxidation of hemp fibers with potassium permanganate was applied to reduce the ...
Agricultural waste as a source of peroxidase for wastewater treatment: Insight in kinetics and process parameters optimization for anthraquinone dye removal
(Environmental Technology & Innovation, 2021)
The number of different technologies available for colored wastewater treatment shows the vastness of the issue. Finding the most feasible one, yet taking into account the cost, the efficiency and eco-friendliness is like ...
Influence of Electrolyte Impurities from E-Waste Electrorefining on Copper Extraction Recovery
(Metals, 2021)
In order to reflect possible issues in future sole e-waste processing, an electrolyte of complex chemical composition reflecting system of sole e-waste processing was obtained by following a specially designed pyro-elect ...
Highly Active Rutile TiO2 Nanocrystalline Photocatalysts
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2020)
The controllable synthesis of rutile TiO2 single crystal particles with the preferential orientation of {111} facets still remains a scientific and technological challenge. Here, we developed a facile route for fabrication ...
Ecological Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals in the Soil at a Former Painting Industry Facility
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2020)
Soil samples from the site of the former largest paint and varnish factory in ex-Yugoslavia were analyzed for arsenic and eight heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Zn, Cr, Ni, Cu, Fe, and Hg). Several additional soil properties (pH, ...
Novel amino-functionalized lignin microspheres: High performance biosorbent with enhanced capacity for heavy metal ion removal
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Novel highly effective amino-functionalized lignin-based biosorbent in the microsphere geometry (A-LMS) for removal of heavy metal ions, was synthesized via inverse suspension copolymerization of kraft lignin with poly(ethylene ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of {yK(2)HPO(4) + (1-y)KH2PO4}(aq) at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2020)
Isopiestic measurements have been made at 55 compositions of the {yK(2)HPO(4) + (1 - y)KH2PO4}(aq) system at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K, 11 for each of the limiting binary solutions and 33 for mixture compositions at K2HPO4 ...
Micro-kinetic modelling of photocatalytic CO2 reduction over undoped and N-doped TiO2
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2020)
CO2 photoreduction is studied using in-house synthesized undoped and N-doped TiO2 nanoparticle photocatalysts. Comparison with the commercial P25 TiO2 powder shows that the synthesized samples are more effective. P25 ...
