In the present work, corn stalk was used as a low cost adsorbent for removal of anionic dye (" CBB"). Corn stalk was treated with two methods to inform Modified corn stalk with magnetic particles (MMCS) and Modified corn stalk with sulfuric acid (SMCS). Comparison between raw and treated corn stalk...

Organic solvent extracts of three cyanobacterial species (Anabaena oryzae, Oscillatoria sp. and Stigonema ocellatum) were tested for antimicrobial activity against human pathogenic fungal and bacterial strains as well as for antioxidant and cytotoxic activity against human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF...

In this study, raw boron enrichment waste was treated with hydrochloric acid and ultrasound at 35-kHz frequency for 60 minutes. To optimize the adsorption conditions for removal of methylene blue (MB) from synthetic wastewaters using raw boron enrichment waste (BEW), acid modified boron enrichment...

Agriculture wastes like sugarcane bagasse are available in large quantities in Egypt. Various adsorbents from natural materials, industrial waste materials, agricultural by-products, and biomass based activated carbon can be used in the removal of various dyes. Raw Bagasse pith (RBP) was used to...

In the present study, batch adsorption studies were performed for the removal of malachite green and acid blue 161 dyes from aqueous solutions by varying parameters such as contact time, waste marble dust amount, initial dye concentration and temperature. The equilibrium adsorption data were...

Tubular halloysite clay mineral and nanocrystalline TiO 2 were incorporated in the preparation of nanocomposite films on glass substrates via sol-gel method at 450ºC. The synthesis involves a simple chemical method employing nonionic surfactant molecule as pore directing agent along with the acetic...

Adsorption and removal of commercial dyes were studied in aqueous suspensions of fly ash mixtures with a sandy clay loam soil of low organic matter content. The commercial dyes, acid orange 7, acid yellow 23, disperse blue 79, basic yellow 28 and direct yellow 28 represent the widely used nitroazo...

The removal of dyes from colored effluents, particularly from textile industries, is one of the major environmental concerns these days. Current methods for removing dyes from wastewaters are costly and cannot effectively be used to treat wide range of such wastewaters. This work describes the use...
