Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTartaric Acid Modified Rice Hull as a Sorbent for Methylene Blue RemovalSiew-Teng Ong, Pei-Sin Keng, Ai-Wen Chong et al.Problem statement: Improper dye discharge from various industries such as textile, paper, cosmetic and plastics into receiving streams can be one of the sources towards water pollution. The release of these effluents not only causes various disruptions in the ecosystems, but also poses hazard effect as most of the dyes are highly toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic in nature. Approach: To … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBasic and Reactive Dyes Sorption Enhancement of Rice Hull through Chemical ModificationSiew-Teng Ong, Pei-Sin Keng, Chnoong-Kheng LeeProblem statement: Many studies have been conducted on the removal of either anionic or cationic dyes. However, as a mixture of dyes does commonly exist together in wastewater, therefore it is of great interest to have a material that can remove both types of dyes. Approach: To prepare an inexpensive and efficient sorbent by chemically modifying rice hull for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsKinetics of Chromium Sorption on Biomass Fungi from Aqueous SolutionLouhab Krim, Sahmoune Nacer, Goma BilangoThe kinetics of chromium ions sorption from aqueous solution on fungi biomass have been investigated in a batch system. The experimental data were analysed based on an intraparticle diffusion equation and a pseudo-second-order mechanism, in order to predict the constant rate of sorption and the equilibrium capacity with the effect of initial chromium ions concentration, temperature and initial solution pH. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Purification Technology and Antioxidant Activity of Total Flavonoids from Sea Buckthorn LeavesJiale Shan, Yang Liu, Pu Zhao et al.China is rich in sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.)resources and a large amount of sea buckthorn fruit is used to extract oil andjuice every year. However, Sea Buckthorn Leaves (SBL), which are full offlavonoids, are discarded as waste. To make full use of resources and turn waste into valuables, theoptimal purification process of flavonoids from SBL was studied and theantioxidant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 27 Aug 2022 · 6,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWater Filter Fabrication from a Mixture of KMnO4 Modified Kapok Carbon Fiber, Zeolite, Bentonite and Clay for Fe3+Removal and Water Hardness TreatmentKannika Thongdee, Kalayaporn Parun, Suphakrit Benjatitmongkhon et al.A water filter was fabricated from a mixture of KMnO4 modified kapok carbon fiber, zeolite, bentonite and kaolinite clay for Fe3+ removal and water hardness treatment. The effects of amount of KMnO4 modified kapok carbon fiber (30-60 wt%), zeolite (20-40 wt%) and sintering temperature (500-700°C) on the properties of sintered products were evaluated. The best of sintered products were tested … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 15 Jun 2017 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValuation of Biomaterial: Phragmites australis in the Retention of Metal-Complexed DyesAida Kesraoui, Asma Mabrouk, Mongi SeffenThe purpose of this research was to estimate the potential of cellulosic fibers of highly available and renewable Tunisian biomass Phragmites australis for the biosorption of an anionic metal complexed dye: Alpacide blue. The present study shows that the Phragmite australis were used successfully for the adsorption of Alpcide blue from aqueous solution. Equilibrium was reached after 5 h at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 5 Jun 2017 · 7,427 accessesView PDFCite
