Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEquilibrium Kinetics and Isotherm Studies of Cu (II) Adsorption from Waste Water onto Alkali Activated Oil Palm AshZaira Zaman Chowdhury, Sharifuddin Mohd. Zain, Rashid Atta Khan, Abdulbari Abdulrahman AhmedProblem statement: Heavy metal accumulation in waste water could affect aquatic life, human health and overall ecosystem adversely. Therefore, in recent years much emphasis has been given for the use of industrial waste material as low cost adsorbents for removal of metallic contaminants from waste water. Approach: Present study deals with the adsorption equilibrium and kinetics of Cu (II) cation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFull Scale Tests of Short-Term Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Bottom Ash Weathering Before Landfill DisposalFranco Marchese, Giuseppe GenonProblem statement: Natural weathering is the most economic method of treatment in order to reduce the release of heavy metals present in the residue. Approach: The aim of the study was to optimize the minimum weathering times that were useful to reduce the lead release to within the Italian limits for landfill disposal. The mechanism of short-term weathering of MSWI … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpeciation of Chromium in Bottom Ash Obtained by the Incineration of the Leather Waste ShavingsK. louhab, H. AkssasThe evolution of bottom ash morphology and chromium metals behavior during incineration of a leather waste shavings at different incineration temperature have been studied. The Cr, Ca, Mg, Cl rates in bottom ashes, flay ashes and emitted gases in different incineration temperature of the tannery wastes are also determined. The morphology of the bottom ashes obtained by incineration at different … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Pulverised Fly Ash (PFA) as an Ameliorant of Lead Contaminated SoilsEdmond Gatima, Mwinyikione Mwinyihija, Ken KillhamFly Ash (FA) is obtained by electrostatic or mechanical precipitation of dust-like particles from the flue gases of furnace fired with coal or lignite at 1100 to 1400°C. About 95-99% of Fly Ash consists of oxides of Si, Al, Fe and Ca, about 0.5 to 3.5% consists of Na, P, K and S and the remainder is composed of trace … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePotential of Rice Husk and Rice Husk Ash for Phenol Removal in Aqueous SystemsA. H. Mahvi, A. Maleki, A. EslamiThe potential of rice husk and rice husk ash for phenol adsorption from aqueous solution was studied. Batch kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out under varying experimental conditions of contact time, phenol concentration, adsorbent dose and pH. Adsorption equilibrium of rice husk and rice husk ash was reached within 6 hours for phenolic concentration 150-500 μg/L and 3 hours … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 10,171 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAluminium-Induced Hepatotoxicity and the Protective Role of Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) in Wistar RatsAnchana Babu, Rekha D Kini, Nayanatara Arun Kumar, Megha GokulAluminium is a widely distributed environmental contaminant whose chronic exposure leads to accumulation in multiple organs, including the liver, resulting in oxidative stress and tissue damage. When reactive oxygen species production exceeds the body's antioxidant defense capacity, cellular injury ensues — a mechanism central to aluminium-induced hepatotoxicity. Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha), an evergreen herb of the Solanaceae family widely cultivated in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 6 Apr 2026 · 1,449 accessesView PDFCite

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and environmental safety of the use of fertilizers made from ash and slag on ordinary chernozem for common flax (Linum usitatissimum) crops. The laboratory experiments were conducted in the environmental protection laboratory. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 3 · 11 May 2023 · 5,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleManufacturing of Granular Matrix with Diatomacious earth, Lime and Sugarcane Bagasse ash to Encapsulate Entomopathogenic Nematodes (Steinernema glaseri)L.V. Bustamante-Espinosa, A. Castañeda-Ovando, J. Hernández-Ávila et al.An alternative for pest control in corn production is the use of biopesticides formulated with entomopathogenic nematodes encapsulated in granular matrices. However, it has been observed that the granular matrices´ lack of resistance to handling and transport causes their deterioration, therefore limiting their use. This study analyzes the use of lime and sugarcane bagasse ash as stabilizer additives in granular … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2020 · 7,732 accessesView PDFCite
