This study assessed the impact of inorganic and organic amendments upon zinc (Zn) and
cadmium (Cd) availabilities in leachates collected from a Cd-and Zn-contaminated soil …

In this work, a catalytic CVD process using ethanol as carbon source was used to convert an
iron rich waste, ie red mud (RM), in a magnetic composite. TPCVD (temperature …

The production of the aluminum metal from bauxite ore and bio-diesel from triglyceride oils
both generate large waste streams, and their management and valuation is therefore of …

Several industrial by-products may be used as amendments to reduce arsenic availability in
contaminated areas, hence contributing to phytoremediation processes. This study was …

The management of Red Mud generated as a waste by-product of bauxite processing in the
aluminum industry is key to the long-term sustainability of alumina production. At the same …

A magnetic fraction (15%) from a waste of foundry sand (WFS), composed of sand, carbon,
bentonite clay and iron (10%) was modified by thermal treatment at 400, 600 and 800° C …

New magnetic amphiphilic composites were prepared by the catalytic carbon vapor
deposition (CVD) growth of carbon nanotubes and nanofibers using ethanol as carbon …

Studies concerning competitive sorption of anions on oxidic materials eligible to be used as
soil amendments are crucial for a better understanding of the adsorbent's effectiveness and …
