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, ...
Enhanced Interface Adhesion by Novel Eco-Epoxy Adhesives Based on the Modified Tannic Acid on Al and CFRP Adherends
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
This paper presents a new process for obtaining eco-epoxide adhesives synthesized from bio-renewable raw material (tannic acid-TA) and used for bonding lightweight materials (aluminum (Al) and carbon fiber reinforced polymer ...
Graphene-based poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan hydrogels with electrochemically synthesized silver nanoparticles for medical applications – A review
(Bulgarian Chemical Communications, 2020)
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have become an interesting alternative to antibiotics for potential applications in biomedicine, since nanocrystalline silver is proved to be highly efficient antimicrobial agent with a wide ...
Controlled Curcumin Release from Hydrogel Scaffold Platform Based on 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate/Gelatin/Alginate/Iron(III) Oxide
(Wiley-VCH Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2020)
The strategy of combining polymers of natural and synthetic origin with inorganic components to use their unique synergistic effect for the development of the novel, sophisticated, and efficient 3D polymeric biomaterials, ...
Stability of TEMPO-oxidized cotton fibers during natural aging
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Stability of cotton fibers oxidized by the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO)-mediated system during natural aging was monitored; the oxidized and five-year-aged fibers were characterized in terms of ...
Numerical determination and experimental validation of the fracture toughness of welded joints
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Most of the serious weldment failures lead to catastrophic consequences in terms of damage of other equipment, loss of production, and risks to workers' health and safety. Hence, there is motivation to find margin between ...
Brewing and malting technology by-products as raw materials in L-(+)-lactic acid fermentation
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
BACKGROUND Brewer's spent grain (BSG), brewer's yeast (BY), malt rootlets (MR), and soy lecithin (SL) are valuable and abundant by-products obtained from brewing, malting, and oil industry, respectively. L-(+)-lactic acid ...
Optimization and kinetic study of anthraquinone dye removal from colored wastewater using soybean seed as a source of peroxidase
(Macedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, 2020)
As water contamination emerges as a serious threat to the environment, ventures for cleaner and sustainable solutions are continuously being developed. The present study investigates the ability of crude peroxidase extract ...
Batch and column adsorption of cations, oxyanions and dyes on a magnetite modified cellulose-based membrane
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2020)
An optimized method is presented to make magnetite (MG) modified cellulose membrane (Cell-MG) from 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid dianhydride functionalized waste cell fibers; (Cell-NH(2)and ...
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, ...
