The feasibility of a chitosan-coated coconut-shell (CS) carbon composite for landfill leachate treatment in fixed-bed study was investigated terms COD and NH3-N removal. surface the characterized using SEM, FT-IR, XRD to assess any changes before after column operations. To enhance its cost-effectiveness, saturated regenerated NaOH. results showed that had significantly better removal both NH3-...

To understand the nature of H2S adsorption onto carbon surfaces under dry and anoxic conditions, the effects of carbon pore structure and surface chemistry were studied using activated carbon fibers (ACFs) with different pore structures and surface areas. Surface pretreatments, including oxidation and heattreatment, were conducted before adsorption/desorption tests in a fixed-bed reactor. Raw A...

While most global productivity is driven by modern photosynthesis, river ecosystems are supplied by locally fixed and imported carbon that spans a range of ages. Alluvial aquifers of gravel-bedded river floodplains present a conundrum: despite no possibility for photosynthesis in groundwater and extreme paucity of labile organic carbon, they support diverse and abundant large-bodied consumers (...

Satellite remote sensing of trace gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) has increased our ability to observe and understand Earth’s climate. However, these remote sensing data, specifically Level 2 retrievals, tend to be irregular in space and time, and hence, spatio-temporal prediction is required to infer values at any location and time point. Such inferences are not only required to answer impo...
