The presence of heavy metals in water systems has become a serious problem. Therefore, the development of new methods to remove heavy metal ions from contaminated water is attracting attention. One of the most efficient techniques for removing harmful heavy metal ions is adsorption technology. Metals that are harmful to humans and the environment include…

The ability of activated carbon (CSAC) and polypyrrole coated sawdust (PPy/SD) obtained from the fruit of Cordia sebestena’s gardening plant material to adsorb acid orange -7 from aqueous solutions was examined. The adsorption method is a viable treatment option, particularly if the adsorbent is affordable and easily available. Variations in experimental parameters such as pH,…

Our current Shivee Ovoo coal research aimed to characterise the initial coal as well as its hard and liquid components after pyrolysis. For starters, proximal and ultimate studies of Shivee Ovoo coal revealed that it is an oxidised brown lignite coal with the B2 mark. The thermal degradation process of Shivee Ovoo coal was investigated…

The aim of this research was to look into the development of activated carbons (AC) from cashew shells and millet stalks, as well as their fluoride retention ability. Senegalese agricultural residues were collected. It is well known that certain Senegalese areas, known as the groundnut basin, suffer from a public health issue caused by an…

The present paper deals with removal of dye Eosin and Acid Yellow RR on two different samples of activated carbon by static batch method. Experimental data on optical density of blank solutions of different concentrations of the two dyes ranging from 10 to 100 mg/L and optical density of solutions after adsorption on activated carbon…

Chlorpyrifos pesticides are endocrine disruptors, inhibitors of acetyl cholinesterase, used to control pests and prime contributors to indoor pollution in retail stores. Seven selected locally sourced adsorbents; Bone charcoal (BCA), corncobs, cotton seed, kokoli, sawdust, coconut shell (CSA) and Muruchi were evaluated. Only BCA and CSA shows peaks and were further examined at adsorptive temperatures…

A micro porous activated carbon (JAC) was synthesis from Jatropha curcas shell an agricultural waste by chemical activation using KOH. The JAC was modified with triethanolamine (TEA) to produce (JAC-TEA). The performance of both adsorbents in CO2 capture study was evaluated in a cylindrical glass column equipped with a digital mass balance. The effect of…
