This work involves the application of carbon xerogels in the removal of two emerging
contaminants, caffeine and diclofenac, from aqueous solutions. Textural characterization of …

Several hundred papers are published yearly reporting liquid-phase adsorption kinetics
data. In general the data is analyzed using a variety of standard models such as the pseudo …

In this work, ZnO nanoparticles, synthesized by the sol-gel process, are immobilized on the
external surface of raw kaolinite particles and kaolinite activated by different treatments: heat …

Carbon xerogels studied were synthesized by two methods. The first was based on
polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde. The material obtained in this way was …

ZnO is known to be photocatalytic, but with limited performances due to the strong electron-
hole recombination after irradiation. The integration of ZnO nanomaterials on a conductive …

The study demonstrates the preparation of MnFe 2 O 4 impregnated chitosan-microspheres
(CMMS) as adsorbents for efficient removal of cationic thiazine dye, methylene blue. A facile …

Carbon xerogels were obtained by polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde in a
water medium. Their surface was oxidized by ammonium persulfate and then modified with …

The first tannin-based carbon xerogel microspheres were prepared and characterised. The
materials were synthesised by inverse emulsion polymerisation in sunflower oil, based on …

This work reports an environmental benign porous carbon catalyst for the catalytic peroxide
oxidation of 4‐nitrophenol (4‐NP) pollutant. Nitrogen and phosphorous‐doped carbon …

The presence of vapor-liquid interface, and more specifically the pressure gradient across
such interface at the time of drying the precursor gel may significantly alter the pore structure …
