In this work, untreated activated carbon (UDP-AC) and activated carbon chemically treated with H₂SO₄ (TDP-AC) were successfully synthesized from date pits, a solid waste material. Characterization was performed on both UDP-AC and TDP-AC, and both samples were used to adsorb methylene blue (MB) dye...

A novel design Digital Baffle Electro Catalytic Batch Oxidation Reactor (DBECB) has been conceived to upsurge the specifications of refinery wastewater (RWW), through the removal of organic pollutants by electro catalytic oxidation treatment. The modern design that eliminates organic from RWW with...

This study focuses on the development and evaluation of novel materials bentonite-CaO, magnetite bentonite-FeCl3, and magnetite bentonite-CaO/FeCl3 as potent adsorbents for the removal of methylene blue dyes from aqueous solutions. Batch adsorption test was conducted with variations of contact times...

This study uses Taguchi analysis to assess the performance and energy efficiency of a metal scrap-incorporating single-slope solar still (SSSS). This study examines the influence of key input variables solar intensity, wind velocity and water inlet temperature on output metrics such as daily...

This study utilizes the Time-Varying Parameter Vector Auto-Regression (TVP-VAR) Connectedness model and wavelet coherence analysis to investigate, for the first time, the dynamic connection between China's carbon market and high-tech industry. The results show an overall market Connectedness index...

This study used a biosorbent, derived from processed Prosopis juliflora root powder to treat wastewater and remove lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and copper (Cu) ions. The biosorption process was influenced by factors including temperature (25 to 65°C), biomass content (1 to 5 g), pH levels (1.0 to 7.0)...

Aquatic ecosystems in the Thamirabarani River Basin, Tamil Nadu, India, are facing increasingly complex challenges due to climate change, particularly concerning water temperature and dissolved oxygen levels. This study delves into the intricate relationship between these variables and their...

Wastewater includes sewage water, which presents serious environmental problems that necessitate effective treatment techniques. Membrane Bioreactors (MBRs) have emerged as promising solutions, albeit plagued by membrane fouling and computational loading issues. To resolve these issues, this...

This study uses green, environmentally friendly methods to synthesize manganese oxide nanoparticles (MnO-NPs) that can be applied on mild steel as a safe and eco-friendly material with corrosion inhibition attributes. Mukia madaraspatana leaf extract is effective in the green synthesis of Mno-NPs...

A risk-based decision analysis methodology is presented, that can be used as a water policy tool in the design of economic incentive instruments, under conditions of uncertainty. A contaminated groundwater resource system with unknown hydrogeological parameters is used as a case study. The polluter...

The activity and selectivity of Pd catalysts supported on YSZ and dosed with different amounts of Na promoter has been investigated for the reduction of NO by alkenes (C3H6) or alkanes (CH4). It is found that Na strongly promotes the reduction of NO by C3H6. Rate increases by an order of magnitude...
