Dry-column Vacuum Chromatographic Removal of Hg2+ from Wastewater Based on an Acridino-crown Ether-modified Spherical Silica Gel Adsorbent

Synthesis of an affinity adsorbent based on silica gel and its application in endotoxin removal

An affinity media for endotoxin removal based on silica gel was prepared by activation with silane coupling agent and subsequent conjugation with histidine (His) as a ligand. The influence of pore size and particle dimension of the silica gel and the grafting conditions such as reaction temperature and concentration of His in solution on the grafting yield of His were studied by means of IR, th...

Column Studies of Micropollutant Removal from Wastewater

Surfactant Enhanced Chromium Removal Using a Silica Gel Column

A practical silver nanoparticle-based adsorbent for the removal of Hg2+ from water.

In this work, we describe the use of silver nanoparticles of 9 ± 2 and 20 ± 5 nm core diameter, protected by mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) and supported on activated alumina for the removal of mercuric ions present in contaminated waters, at room temperature (28 ± 1 °C). These two nanoparticle samples were prepared by using two Ag:MSA ratios 1:6 and 1:3, respectively, during synthesis and were lo...

use of surface modified silica gel factory waste for removal of 2,4-d pesticide from agricultural wastewater: a case study

the silica gel waste (sgw), after its collection from a local factory (kolkata, india) was modified with cationic surfactant and was utilized as an adsorbing media for the removal of 2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d) from agricultural runoff of a tea garden. characterization of base adsorbent and modified adsorbent was carried out. the efficacy of the adsorbent was evaluated through both ...
