Dewatered sludge is the main by-product from wastewater treatment and it contains various types of hazardous substances which can cause environmental pollution. The alternative utilization of sludge waste is for covering the landfill or as liner for the landfill. Landfill cover is a critical...

The batch adsorption technique investigated the efficiency of sawdust adsorbent for removing copper ions from synthetic solutions. A chemical synthesis process prepared the activated sawdust powder, and its surface area and pore volume were obtained by BET isotherm analysis. The ability of copper...

Biosorption of azo dyes (RO-16, RB-120 & RB-19) from the aqueous solutions was investigated using the activated sugarcane bagasse charcoal adsorbent. The characteristics of the prepared adsorbent were analyzed by SEM, EDX, FTIR, XRD, TG & DT analysis, and the BET surface area of the sugarcane...

This research focuses on hydrothermal gasification (HTG) and hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) studies to produce bio-hydrogen from domestic mixed waste. HTG and HTL studies were studied at temperatures of 300–450°C and 300–400°C, correspondingly, with a catalyst level of 6 wt %. The sol-gel technique...

In this study, Chlorella vulgaris microalgae was cultivated from wastewater and converted into biochar through hydrothermal carbonization process. Acclimatization of microalgae resulted in a greater biomass yield of 4.1 g/L in 15 days in a Fog's medium to wastewater ratio of 20:80. Microalgae...

TiO2 is the most effective photocatalyst but it has low adsorption in the visible region. Many efforts have been done to improve its photocatalytic activity in the solar region. In this study we use Mo-oxy species supported on titania surface since it is well known that titania surface can dispersed...

This work focuses on the use of carbon-coated magnetic cobalt ferrite nanoparticles as catalysts for catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) of the emerging concern pollutant paracetamol (PCM). The magnetic core of the catalyst is composed of CoFe2O4 developed by a sol-gel method. The core is...

Conducting poly(o-toluidine) (POT)/titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanocomposite have been synthesized by in situ chemical oxidation polymerization of o-toluidine in the presence of TiO2 nanoparticles. The various composites were synthesized by changing the percentage load of titanium dioxide nanoparticles...

Poultry slaughterhouse wastewater (PSWW) is a crucial concern fundamentally due to extensive generation and related substantial amounts of recalcitrant organic content due to high COD and oil and grease (O&G) levels. Hybrid advanced oxidation processes are promising, green, and innovative options to...

The constant development of technological processes aggravates the problem of pollution, due to a significant change in the composition of effluents, which makes necessary new (and/or improved) treatment methods and catalytic materials. In this sense, the use of natural clays in the synthesis of low...
