Nanotechnology has immensely contributed for the treatment of contaminated water with the
development of nano-adsorbents. In last few years, the demand of nano-adsorbents in the …

The development of cellulose and nanocellulose based materials have been a subject of
intense research in recent decades due to their renewability, high strength and stiffness, as …

The sisal (Agave sisalana) is a cellulosic fiber produced in Brazil since 1903 and until now
has been one of the most traded due to its characteristics such as the low cost, low density …

This study applies green coconut shells as adsorbent for the removal of toxic metal ions from
aqueous effluents using column adsorption. The results show that a flow rate of 2 mL/min …

In this work, fluorescent adsorbents that can efficiently detect and remove Pb 2+ were
developed by integrating the designed amino-modified carbon quantum dots and carboxyl …

This study investigates the effect of NaOH and NaOCl treatments on chemical composition,
morphology and crystalline structure of Agave americana L. fibers. These fibers have been …

In this study the chemical treatment of sisal fiber using the combined alkali (NaOH) and clay
is discussed. The purpose of this fiber treatment is to improve the fiber–matrix compatibility …

Abstract Highly uniform Ag/ZnO/ZnFe 2 O 4 ternary composites with porous and hollow
nanostructures are synthesized using Ag-loaded Prussian blue analogue Zn 3 Fe (CN) 6· xH …

Electroplating wastewater contains various types of toxic substances, such as heavy metals,
solvents, and cleaning agents. Carbon foam was used as an adsorbent for the removal of …

The powder of green coconut shell (Coco nuscifera L.) was chemically modified and used to
remove inorganic anions from aqueous solution through batch process. The solid was …
