Soil pollution is an increasingly urgent problem for the global environment. Soil can be
contaminated with potential toxic metals from many anthropogenic activities, besides fossil …

Pumice is a valuable scouring, scrubbing, and polishing material both in powdered form and
as a pumice stone. It has been traditionally used in construction industry and biomedicine. It …

Chitosan-tripolyphosphate (CTPP) beads were synthesized, characterized and were used
for the adsorption of Pb (II) and Cu (II) ions from aqueous solution. The effects of initial pH …

A new composite adsorbent, iron oxide coated zeolite (IOCZ), was characterized and
employed for the removal of Cu (II) from aqueous solution using fixed bed column. Scanning …

Lignocellulosic materials are good precursors for the production of activated carbon. In this
work, coffee residue has been used as raw material in the preparation of powder activated …

In this study, the sorption potential of pumice was investigated as geomaterial adsorbent for
removal of two cationic dyes, malachite green (MG) and crystal violet (CV), from aqueous …

Plants that hyperaccumulate heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd) are important agents of
phytoremediation. Availability of resources such as light, nutrients, and water can affect …

This study was initiated to investigate the adsorption of cadmium from aqueous solution by
two different rock types—Pumice (VPum) and Scoria (VSco), which are readily available in …

A continuous fixed-bed study was carried out by using zeolite as a low-cost adsorbent for the
removal of uranium (VI) ions from aqueous solution under the effect of various process …
