Optimization of Acid-Assisted Extraction of Pectin from Banana (Musa Acuminata) Peels by Central Composite Design

by

Muhammad Yousaf Arshad et al. View all

Solid Waste Management

Pectin extraction from various fruits and its application in food products have been debatable issues for ages. We conducted our research on the biomass wastes of the food industry, primarily banana (Musa Acuminata) peels, in order to develop a modified procedure for the effective extraction of this...

Removal of methyl violet 2B dye from aqueous solution by adsorption onto raw and modified carobs (Ceratonia siliqua L.)

by

Salima Merghache et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

In the present study, fruits of Ceratonia siliqua L. (carobs) were used as an alternative low cost biosorbents to remove a cationic dye, methyl violet 2B (MV) which has broad applications in paints, textile and printing ink, from aqueous solutions. The untreated (CRM) and thermal treated carobs (CC)...

Biosorption of heavy metal ions from the aqueous solutions using groundnut shell activated carbon: batch adsorption, kinetic and thermodynamic studies

by

D. Zunaithur Rahman et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

Batch adsorption studies of heavy metals were carried out using activated charcoal groundnut shell powder as an adsorbent material. The groundnut shell was collected and synthesized by chemical synthesis to convert it into charcoal form. The prepared adsorbent’s pore size & surface area was analyzed...

Block-level Drought Assessment using Rainfall and Remote sensing Data

by

Murali Krishna T et al. View all

Floods, Droughts and Water scarcity

Drought is a disastrous natural phenomenon. It is generally viewed as a sustained and regionally extensive occurrence of below average natural water availability either in the form of rainfall, river runoff or groundwater. Drought is defined based on different factors and generally assessed in...

Biosorption of Nitrate by Thermodynamic and Kinetics study using Tamarind Fruit Shells

by

Senthil Rajan Murugesan et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

The majority of nitrate (NO3‾) pollutants come from a different type of industries. Even if present in low amounts, these nitrates are harmful to humans and aquatic systems. This research investigated the utilisation of Tamarind Fruit shell (TFS) as biosorbent in the removal of Nitrate from aqueous...
