Pharmaceuticals, heavy metals, pesticides, and dyes are the main environmental
contaminants that have serious effects on both land and aquatic lives and necessitate the …

The global industrialization accelerates the use of fossil fuels and hence the excessive
emissions of greenhouse gasses, especially carbon dioxide (CO 2), which poses a serious …

The pore structure of adsorbent plays a critical role during the CO 2 and volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) adsorption. To improve the adsorption performance, fine-tuned …

Crop residues are representative agricultural waste materials, massively generated in the
world. However, a large fraction of them is currently being wasted, though they have a high …

In recent years, emissions of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have been increasing,
leading to increasingly severe global warming. In the construction industry, the increase in …

Green and low-cost biomass-based porous carbon adsorbents have a good prospect for the
removal of some environmental pollutants. Here, sodium lignosulphonate, chitosan, and …

The excessive dependency on fossil fuel resources could be curtailed by the efficient
conversion of lignocellulosic biomass. Biochar, a porous carbonaceous product synthesized …

Effective decarbonisation is key to ensuring the temperature rise does not exceed the 2° C
set by the Paris accords. Adsorption is identified as a key technology for post-combustion …

Activated carbon (AC) has gained immense popularity owing to its excellent
physicochemical properties and its ability to remove carbon dioxide (CO 2) from flue gas …

Biochar produced from sources such as forestry, agricultural, and marine wastes has
demonstrated an ability to adsorb CO 2. The adsorption capacity is a function of biochar …
