Hemp-Based Materials for Applications in Wastewater Treatment by Biosorption-Oriented Processes: A Review
(Singapore : Springer Nature, 2022)
Treatment of wastewater pollution is a critical issue in the context of growing population and industrialization. Actual treatment methods are expensive and not fully effective and rely on fossil fuel-derived chemicals, ...
Plants as Monitors of Lead Air Pollution
(Cham : Springer, 2013)
The most important environmental problems are caused by intensive industrial
activities, urbanization and population growth. The increase in air pollution resulting
from the expanding use of fossil energy sources and the ...
Chemical Modifications of Jute Fiber Properties for Lifecycle Enhancement by Utilization in Wastewater Treatment
(New York : Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2022)
The increased demand for cheap, biodegradable, renewable, and recyclable fibers with exceptional properties positioned jute (Corchorus capsularis L. and Corchorus olitorius L.) in the second place (after cotton) in the ...
Removal of Synthetic Dyes from Wastewaters Using Horseradish Peroxidase
(New York: Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2019)
Horseradish peroxidase is a heme-containing plant enzyme (HRP; EC 1.11.1.7) with a wide range of biotechnological and medical applications. In combination with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidant HRP can be used in the ...
Thermal studies of compatibilized polymer blends
(Compatibilization of Polymer Blends: Micro and Nano Scale Phase Morphologies, Interphase Characteriz, 2019)
Thermal stability of the polymer blends strongly depends on the composition and compatibility of involved polymers. Thermal stability of polymer blends is directly linked with the bond energies in the polymer structure, ...
Thermal and rheological properties of unsaturated polyester resins-based composites
(Unsaturated Polyester Resins: Fundamentals, Design, Fabrication, and Applications, 2019)
Unsaturated polyester resins (UPR) are among the most commercially important thermosetting matrix materials for composites. This chapter summarizes the importance of the thermal and rheological properties of UPR. The ...
Health hazards of heavy metal pollution
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2016)
The global population growth, urbanization and the increased energy demand led to serious changes in the environment. Numerous anthropogenic activities release a variety of toxic and potentially toxic pollutants into the ...
Compatibilization of polymer blends by the addition of graft copolymers
(Compatibilization of Polymer Blends: Micro and Nano Scale Phase Morphologies, Interphase Characteriz, 2019)
Polymer blends are mixtures of two or more polymers that are very often immiscible components and they need to be compatibilized. The compatibilization must not only ensure improvement in microstructure uniformity, but ...
Semi-interpenetrating networks based on (Meth)acrylate, itaconic acid, and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) hydrogels for biomedical applications
(Springer Singapore, 2020)
In this study, three series of semi-interpenetrating networks were synthesized based on 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA), itaconic acid (IA), and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) as interpenetrating ...
Antimicrobial properties of (meth)acrylate based hydrogels
(An Introduction to Antibacterial Properties, 2020)
The rapid emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens is becoming an imminent global public health problem. The development of novel antimicrobial materials aiming to prevent or control infections caused by these pathogens ...
