Currently, sequestration of contaminants like heavy metals and dyes from wastewater has
been widely studied by researchers using modified plant-based adsorbents in order to purify …

Industrial contaminants such as dyes and intermediates are released into water bodies,
making the water unfit for human use. At the same time large amounts of food wastes …

In the literature, the linear form of the pseudo-first-order (PFO) and pseudo-second-order
(PSO) models are often applied for fitting the data of adsorption kinetics. Many authors have …

The use of nonlinear fitting of data of isotherm and kinetics is becoming more frequently
used in the adsorption literature since the authors are becoming convinced that the use of …

Coffee, the second most traded commodity and the second-largest beverage consumed
around the world, is responsible for many environmental burdens in the form of spent coffee …

In order to improve the adsorption efficiency of ammonia nitrogen in low temperature
wastewater, the modified activated carbon (Fe-AC) was prepared by impregnation …

Microwave-induced chemical activation process was used to prepare an activated carbon
from cocoa shell for efficient removal of two anti-inflammatories, sodium diclofenac (DFC) …

Modified biochar has great potential for adsorbing cadmium (Cd) in the aquatic environment,
but the micro-immobilization mechanisms, driven by surface modifications, remain unclear …

A high quality activated carbon was developed from biological sludge of a beverage
wastewater treatment plant (BWTP). The material was characterized and its adsorption …
