Obtaining jute fabrics with enhanced sorption properties and "closing the loop" of their lifecycle
(Industrial Crops and Products, 2021)
The objective of this investigation was to obtain jute fabrics with enhanced sorption properties (by using simple and cost-effective alkali and oxidative modifications) and a long life cycle. The applied alkali modifications ...
Characterization of antifungal citrus pectin-based films for potential agricultural application
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)
In this study, pectin-based films blended with alginate and crosslinked with copper ions for potential application in agriculture were investigated. Copper was selected as crosslinking agent, due to its key role as a plant ...
Multifunctional jute fabrics obtained by different chemical modifications
(Springer, 2020)
The aim of the present research is first to reduce the jute fabric non-cellulosic components by using different chemical modifications (i.e. alkali and oxidative) and then to analyze their influence on the jute fabric ...
Principal component analysis of morphological descriptors for monitoring surface defects induced by thermal shock
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
Pattern recognition techniques are applied to various morphological descriptors to monitor the formation and propagation of surface defects of materials subjected to thermal shock. A low-cement high-alumina castable was ...
Impedance analysis of milk quality using functionalized polyamide textile-based sensor
(Computers and Electronics in Agriculture, 2021)
Present paper demonstrates design and characterization of a textile based microfluidic chip sensor for the detection of milk adulteration through measuring the real part of the impedance and impedance phase angle. Polyamide ...
Closing the loop: As(V) adsorption onto goethite impregnated coal-combustion fly ash as integral building materials
(Journal of Cleaner Production, 2021)
Fly and bottom ash(es) are the most abundant generated by-products of coal combustion in thermal power plants. This investigation offers a sustainable solution of a double and circular use of industrial waste material in ...
Influence of Potassium Permanganate Oxidation on Structure and Properties of Cotton
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2022)
Cotton yarn was oxidized using the various concentrations and pH of potassium permanganate solutions, in order to investigate the influence of oxidation parameters on chemical, mechanical and sorption properties of cotton. ...
Valorization of unexploited artichoke leaves dust for obtaining of extracts rich in natural antioxidants
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2021)
This study has developed an improved and fast microwave-assisted procedure for extraction of high yields of natural antioxidants from artichoke leaves dust. The material is derived as an abundant residue remained after ...
Analysis and experimental demonstration of forced periodic operation of an adiabatic stirred tank reactor: Simultaneous modulation of inlet concentration and total flow-rate
(Chemical Engineering Journal, 2021)
It is well known, that forced periodic operation possesses the potential for process improvements. Nevertheless, only a small number of applications is reported, due to complex realization, limited predictability and high ...
Physico-chemical, structural, and adsorption properties of amino-modified starch derivatives for the removal of (in)organic pollutants from aqueous solutions
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)
In this study, an environmentally sustainable process of crystal violet, congo red, methylene blue, brilliant green, Pb2+, Cd2+, and Zn2+ ions adsorption from aqueous solutions onto amino-modified starch derivatives was ...
