The aim of this communication is to understand the different aspects and needs of the
modification of micro and meso-porous clay or clay based materials in particular to its …

The presence of heavy metals in the environment is an issue of great concern because of
their growing discharge, toxicity, and other adverse effects on the receiving water …

This study reports the synthesis and characterization of a porous geopolymer systems based
a naturally occurring Moroccan pyrophyllite clay. The contribution of pyrophyllite in …

The adsorption of cationic Methylene Blue (MB) and anionic Procion Crimson H-EXL (PC)
dyes from aqueous medium on pyrophyllite was studied. Changes in the electrokinetics of …

The presence of heavy metals in the aquatic environment has been a big deal to scientists
due to their increased discharge, toxic nature, and other adverse effects on receiving waters …

The composition, structure and properties of the reaction product resulting from the alkali
activation of metakaolin (MK) are directly impacted by the specific surface and composition …

Unlike hydrophobic organic pollutants, the potential of organoclays to adsorb inorganic ionic
contaminants is relatively underexplored. The present study attempts to characterise …

The high cost and difficulty in sustainability have hindered the wide application of the
general synthetic resins in the controlled-release fertilizers (CRF). Here, the degradable …

Organoclays, which are synthesized by introducing organic molecules into the clay structure,
have been proven effective for remediation of many contaminants in soil and water. The …

The present work explored the effectiveness of a geopolymer, synthesized from pyrophyllite
mine waste, as an adsorbent for heavy metals such as Co, Cd, Ni, and Pb from aqueous …
