Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdsorption Study of Several Hydrophobic Organic Contaminants on an Aquifer MaterialBarbara Ruffino, Mariachiara ZanettiProblem statement: Aim of the present research was to determine coefficient of partition KD between soil and groundwater for five hydrophobic organic pollutants (benzene, chlorobenzene, trichloroethylene-TCE, perchloroethylene-PCE and toluene) in an Italian aquifer material characterized by a low organic carbon content (fOC = 0.00262) by means of laboratory batch tests. Initial aqueous concentrations (quite different among the five compounds) were … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSynthesis of Zeolite from Aluminium Etching By-Product: the Effect of Reaction Temperature on Crystallinity and Its CO2 Adsorption PropertyKanokorn Hussaro, Supaporn Douglas, Noppadon CheamsawatThe synthesis of zeolite from the by-product of aluminium etching process was investigated. The starting by-product reactant had high aluminium content, 92.17% wt. as Al2O3. Si and Na compositions were adjusted by the addition of sodium metasilicate, in the hydrogel process.The reaction time was fixed at 1 h., while the stirring speed was controlled at 200 rpm. and the temperature … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePhytoremediation and Adsorption of Heavy Industry Emitted from Cement Industry through Plant Leaves, Case Study: Golestan Peivand Cement FactorySoleyman Ghorbanzadeh, Meysam Madadi, Sara Abdollahi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariCement factories are found to be one of the major causes of pollution. Cement mist and dusts depositions affect the photosynthesis, secretion and fertility of the plant. Increasing the concentration of airborne dust reduces photosynthetic potential in leaves, closes leaf stomatals and, in general, reduces the growth and fertility of plants. The purpose of this study is to determine the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2020 · 6,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBiochar Types from Latrine Waste and Sewage Sludge Differ in Physico-Chemical Properties and Cadmium AdsorptionKoetlisi Andreas Koetlisi, Pardon MuchaonyerwaPyrolysis of latrine fecal waste could produce valuable products for minimizing environmental contamination with heavy metals. The objective of this study was to determine yields, characteristics and cadmium (Cd) sorption of biochar from latrine fecal waste and sewage sludge, as affected by pyrolysis temperature. Slow pyrolysis at 350, 550 and 650°C, was used to produce the biochar. In addition to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2017 · 8,517 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIndustrial Waste-an Economical Approach for Adsorption of Heavy Metals from Ground WaterMargherita Pettinato, Debolina Mukherjee, Silvestro Andreoli et al.A by product from steel industry mainly known as blast furnace slag is a waste product which was tested for the removal of As(III), from ground water. Steel slag is a commercial waste material mainly consisting of SiO2, Al2O3 and CaO, the former two chemicals being major components of zeolites and the latter a major component of Hydroxyapatite (HAP). Arsenic … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Apr 2015 · 8,159 accessesView PDFCite
