Most geotextiles consist of polymers of polyolefin, polyester or polyamide family, which
involve environmental problems related to soil pollution. Geotextiles can be used for at least …

This study was carried out to examine the adsorption capacity of the flax fibres tows (FFT)
adsorbent for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution using batch-adsorption …

The accurate determination of mass transport and microstructural properties within highly-
porous trabecular bone specimens and substitutes still represents a challenge due to the …

This study reports on the evaluation of the equilibrium, thermodynamics and kinetics of
mercury (II) biosorption using a living biofilm, developed on a nonwoven polypropylene and …

Building construction technology by raw earth materials is already known and used since
ancient times. The raw earth material is abundant, low cost, requires very low energy to …

The traditional technology of linseed harvesting involves the cutting of the stems with
subsequent threshing. During cutting part of the stem remains on the field, which causes …

In this paper, numerical simulations of experimental data were performed with kinetic rate
coefficients to characterize the retention and re-entrainment dynamics under different …

Linseed flax is an oilseed producing crop but its stems are rich in high potential fibers.
However, linseed flax is not highly promoted for fiber application purposes. It is mainly due …

A time-distance-dependent deposition model is built to investigate the effects of
hydrodynamic forces on the transport and deposition of polydispersed particles and the …

Batch-adsorption technique was employed to evaluate the adsorption capacity of the
nonwovens produced from lignocellulosic milkweed fibers for the removal of heavy metal …
