The present study was conducted for the removal of color of pulp and paper mill effluent using coal fly ash as an adsorbent. The effect of adsorbent dose and pH on color removal has been determined. 100 % color removal was achieved when adsorbent dose was 2.4 gm or more and at pH 6.8 and above.

An Adsorbent based treatment system is presented for toxic metal removal from rinsewater streams. The adsorbent is a Mg-A1 oxide anion exchange material with high capacity (approaching 5.5 meq/g) and strong selectivity for difficult to treat species such as Electroless plating metal chelates, Fixed Cyanides and chrome conversion solutions. Data is presented describing treatment of various metal...

In this paper, waste coconut shells are used as raw materials to prepare the corresponding bio-char (BC), and further magnetically modified magnetic (MBC), explore adsorption of BC MBC on amount adsorbent, time pH. The recyclability were contrasted. results study found that compared BC, has a larger specific surface area richer functional groups, which provides more sites for removal tetracycli...

Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were oxidized with different agents and a characterization study was carried out. Then, hybrid-magnetic nanoparticles (HMNPs) were synthesized as iron oxide supported on the selected multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-Fe₃O₄) obtained from MWCNTs oxidized with HNO3. The HMNPs characterization revealed the presence of iron oxide as magnetite onto the MWCNTs s...

Adsorption studies were conducted to determine whether adsorbent concentration (soil-solution ratio) affected insecticide adsorption by soils and clays. Adsorption isotherms were obtained for several insecticides in Bondhead sandy loam and Ca-saturated illite suspensions using adsorbent concentrations that were varied over several orders of magnitude. There was no evidence that altering adsorbe...

In this paper, Fe3 O4 @SiO2 core/shell magnetic nanostructure has been synthesized and modified by N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AEAPTMS). Fe3 O4 @SiO2 was used as a novel adsorbent for separation of hexachloroplatinic acid. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and FT-IR technique were used to characterize morphologies and surface texturing of these ads...

Wastewaters obtained from fenvalerate manufacturing process were treated for its safe disposal using activated coconut shell carbon (acc) as adsorbent. In this work, the removal efficiency of organic matter in terms of chemical oxygen demand (COD) utilizing acc has been investigated. Various parameters which can influence the adsorption like adsorbent dosage, contact time of solution with adsor...
