This study employed a simple hydrothermal (HT) approach to synthesize vanadium pentoxide (V 2O 5) nanomaterials. The inherent limitations of V 2O 5, including low quantum efficiency and insufficient light sensitivity, restrict its potential for enhanced photocatalytic activity. The study...

In this study, various types of zeolite support (LTA, GIS-NaP1, and FAU-type Y) were coupled with CdO active sites to develop effective photocatalysts for volatile organic compounds (VOC) treatment (isopropanol as a model). Notably, both LTA-Cd and FAU-Cd samples retained the structure of the...

Jordan is the world’s second water-poorest country. Treating and reusing of wastewater are significantly important at the national level. This research aims to investigate the use of natural and modified Zeolite for the removal of Methylene Blue Active Substances (MBAS) and lead (Pb), major...

This article represents the photocatalytic activity of harmful pollutants from textile and pharmaceutical industries and compares the photocatalytic efficiency between pure MgO and MgO – SiO 2 nanocomposite. The MgO NPs are synthesized using hydrothermal synthesis, in which the extract from Nerium...

In this study, activated carbon (AC) was prepared from teff grass straw via chemical activation and microwave-assisted pyrolysis. The AC was modified by magnetization followed by it was characterized by particle size, FTIR, XRD , thermogravimetric study, pore size, and magnetic properties. Further...

In order to investigate the main pollution factors of underground drinking water sources in semi-arid agricultural areas in China, and to reveal the threatening influence of pollutants on the normal water security of local society. Single-factor evaluation index, principal component analysis, basic...

The dairy industry is a major food industry that processes raw milk into a variety of products. The milk processing factory produces DWE with soluble organic components, suspended particles, and trace elements. These components degrade, causing cloudiness and odour. Adsorbing total solids (TS) and...

As the groundwater pollution is increasing, it is crucial to assess groundwater quality and characterize hydrogeochemistry accurately for long term water supply. In this study groundwater samples were collected from 120 locations from Bahawalpur district and analyzed for electrical conductivity (EC)...

This study focuses on extraction of Boswellia sacra resin essential oil that was performed using the hydrodistillation method, resulting in a yield of 2.45%. Phytochemical screening of the essential oil provided information about its major compounds, which include terpenes and anthocyanins. To...

Natural dyes, such as annatto, are widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. However, the effluents from annatto dye production pose environmental challenges due to the presence of residual dye components, organic matter, and dissolved inorganic species (chloride and sulfate). This...

An Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) was applied for treating wastewater of a seafood processing factory in Vietnam. However, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Total Phosphorus (TP), and Total Nitrogen (TN) values of the AnMBR effluent were 250.43 mg/l, 19.96 mg/l, and 62.65 mg/l, respectively, and...
