Removal of BTEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl benzene and Xylene) from aqueous solutions using surface-modified zeolite

by

Saravanan. R and Gokulan R et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

BTEX, also known as benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylene, is a common gasoline oxygenate. The contamination of groundwater and surface water with BTEX and its primary breakdown product has drawn a lot of attention. However, surface-modified zeolite's sorption mechanisms and affinity for BTEX...

Enhancement of adsorption efficiency by surface modified Avocado seed for xylene removal

by

Gokulan R and Rajeshkumar. V et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

The current study work's contribution relates to the removal of xylene using an adsorbent with modified surfaces made from a naturally occurring substance called avocado seed. With the aid of a muffle furnace heated to 600⁰c, this was converted to become activated carbon. Activated carbon is...

Investigation of Biosorption Behavior of Red-254, a Textile Waste Paint on Activated Sugar Beet Pulp

by

Omer LACIN et al. View all

Water and Wastewater Treatment

In this study, activated sugar beet pulp as a biosorbent was used to remove Red-254 dye from aqueous solutions. The contact time, pH, biosorbent dosage and temperature were chosen as the parameters affecting the biosorption process. In the experiments, the batch adsorption technique was used. The...
