Immobilization of Candida rugosa lipase by adsorption onto biosafe meso/macroporous silica and zirconia
(Elsevier B.V., 2015)
Lipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized by adsorption onto laboratory prepared supports, silica SBA-15 and zirconia. The adsorption process was studied as a function of pH in terms of percent of adsorbed lipase, enzyme ...
Multifunctional use of magnetite-coated tuff grains in water treatment: Removal of arsenates and phosphates
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2019)
Natural filtration material tuff (T) was modified by coating with nano-sized magnetite. The grain fraction of 0.6-1.9 mm was submitted to hydrothermal synthesis of magnetite. Thus formed magnetite modified tuff (MMT) was ...
Production of activated carbon derived from waste hemp (Cannabis sativa) fibers and its performance in pesticide adsorption
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
The main objective of this work was to find optimal production parameters for the preparation of activated hemp fibers (ACh) with good adsorption properties toward pesticides. In order to examine the role of manufacturing ...
Fast evaluation of periodic operation of a heterogeneous reactor based on nonlinear frequency response analysis
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
The concept of higher-order frequency response functions (FRFs), which is based on Volterra series representation of nonlineral systems, is used to analyse the time-average performance of a perfectly mixed reactor subject ...
Fenitrothion adsorption - desorption on organo - minerals
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2011)
The adsorption-desorption of the pesticide fenitrothion on organo-montmorillonite, organo-clinoptilolite and organo-sepiolite was studied at different loadings of stearyl- dimethylbenzylammonium cations (SDBA). The SDBA ...
Adsorption of chromium (VI) from aqueous solutions onto amine-functionalized natural and acid-activated sepiolites
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2013)
Chromium(VI) adsorption onto amine-functionalized sepiolites from aqueous solution at 298 K was investigated. Natural and add-activated sepiolites were functionalized by covalent grafting [3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyl] ...
Mechanism of adsorption of Cu2+ and Zn2+ on the corn silk (Zea mays L.)
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2017)
In this study the novel biosorbent - raw corn silk (CS) was investigated for Cu2+ and Zn2+ removal from aqueous solutions. The physical and chemical properties of CS were determined by SEM - EDX and ATR - FTIR techniques. ...
Utilization of agro-industrial waste for removal of copper ions from aqueous solutions and mining-wastewater
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2019)
In this study, unmodified lemon peel, as agro-industrial waste, was used to investigate removal efficiency of copper ions from aqueous solutions and mining wastewater. The effects of solution pH, adsorption time, metal ion ...
Enhanced sorption of Cu2+ from sulfate solutions onto modified electric arc furnace slag
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2019)
Pristine electric arc furnace slag (EAFS) as well as EAFS modified by alkali activation i.e. alkali activated slag (AAS) have found a novel application as adsorbents used in Cu2+ removal from sulfate solutions. The adsorption ...
Efficient multistep arsenate removal onto magnetite modified fly ash
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2018)
The modification of the fly ash (FA) by magnetite (M) was performed to obtain FAM adsorbent with improved adsorption efficiency for arsenate removal from water. The novel low cost adsorbents are characterized by liquid ...
