As nanomaterials get smaller, their properties increasingly diverge from their bulk material
counterparts. Written from a materials science perspective, Adsorption and Diffusion in …

The influence of treatment with ammonia on adsorption properties toward CO2 was
examined for commercially available CWZ-35 activated carbon. The treatment was …

This study aimed to develop a highly functionalized adsorbent material for the removal of
persistent anionic reactive dye. The modification process was commenced via a wet …

Small brightly fluorescent carbon nanoparticles have emerged as a new class of materials
important for sensing and imaging applications. We analyze comparatively the properties of …

The world is rapidly changing, the resources are getting depleted, and the demand for
newer technologies and products is increasing. To keep up with these new advances, highly …

The carbon-based materials (CbMs) refer to a class of substances in which the carbon
atoms can assume different hybridization states (sp1, sp2, sp3) leading to different allotropic …

The adsorption of organic micropollutants onto powdered activated carbon (PAC) was
investigated in laboratory scale based on samples from four wastewater process streams …

Pharmaceuticals have been recognized for saving billions of lives, but they also appear as a
novel group of environmental pollutants. The presence of pharmaceutically active residues …

The purpose of this study was to use yellow mombin fruit stones, a residue from the food
industry, as a precursor material for the synthesis of activated carbon and dye removal …

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is among the most powerful methods to determine
the surface chemical properties of carbon materials. Because heat-treated graphite oxide …
