There is an increased global demand for activated carbon (AC) in application of water
treatment and purification. Water pollutants that have exhibited a greater removal efficiency …

Water pollution is one of the major environmental challenges in contemporary times. Biochar
from hydrothermal processes (known as hydrochars) has been explored as adsorbents for …

Lignin has been employed as a precursor to synthesize activated carbons with the aim of
lignin-biomass revalorization. The properties of these activated carbons were compared …

Preparing sustainable and highly efficient biochars as adsorbents remains a challenge for
organic pollutant management. Herein, a novel nitrogen-doped carbon material has been …

Preparing sustainable and highly efficient biomass-based carbon materials (BBPM) as
adsorbents remains a challenge for organic pollutant management. In this work, novel …

Heavy metals chelated with coexisting organic ligands in wastewater impose severe risks to
public health and the ambient ecosystem but are also valuable metal resources. For …

The wastewaters from pharmaceutical manufacturing units, hospitals, and domestic sewage
contaminated with excretal matters of medicine users are the prime sources of …

Rapid urbanization has led to the generation of a large quantum of complex wastewater
comprising of recalcitrant organic and inorganic pollutants. The inability of the conventional …

This study aimed to develop an extremely highly porous activated carbon derived from
soybean curd residues (SCB-AC) through two-step pyrolyzing coupled with KOH activating …

In this study, zinc terephthalate-metal-organic framework decorated on the surface of poultry
manure-derived biochar (ZT-MOF@ Ag@ C) was successfully fabricated and employed as …
