The obtaining and characterization of some polymeric eco-composites based on wood sawdust and natural rubber is presented. The natural rubber was cross-linked using the electron beam irradiation. The irradiation doses were of 75, 150, 300 and 600 kGy and the concentrations of wood sawdust were of 10 and 20 phr, respectively. As a result of wood sawdust adding, the physical and mechanical proper...

sawdust which is the main waste from wood industry has been used as a raw material forremoval of brilliant cresyl blue toxic dye. the effects of various parameters such as ph,electrolyte concentration, adsorbent dose, contact time and agitation rate were studied for theremoval of the dye in a concentration of 50 mg l-1. the optimum condition for the studiedparameters was applied for various con...

In this study, Ailanthus altissima sawdust was chemically activated and characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Energy Dispersive X rays (EDX), surface area analyzer. The used as an adsorbent for the removal of azo dye; Acid Yellow 29 (AY 29) from wastewater. Different kinetic equilibrium models were to calculate adsorption parameters. Among appli...

Abstract High loaded textile dying effluents should undergo for treatment prior to final disposal into the environment. The current study aimed apply naturally abundant and cheap by-product material namely sawdust (SWD) develop magnetized cellulosic nano-adsorbent based on magnetite nanoparticles reactive dye removal Synozol Red K-HL (R K-HL). powder of SWD, which is available through various i...

A composting toilet using sawdust as a matrix has the potential to trap pathogens that might occasionally be contained in human feces. Therefore, care should be taken when handling the sawdust. It should also be noted that pathogenic viruses tend to have stronger tolerance than pathogenic bacteria. The fates of several species of coliphages, T4, lambda, Qbeta and MS2, in sawdust were investigat...

Biofuel pellets were prepared from biomass (pine, chestnut and eucalyptus sawdust, cellulose residue, coffee husks and grape waste) and from blends of biomass with two coals (bituminous and semianthracite). Their mechanical properties and combustion behaviour were studied by means of an abrasion index and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), respectively, in order to select the best raw materials ...
