Investigation of Cephalexin Removal Using Biochar Derived from Nephelium lappaceum Seeds

by Varalakshmi V. Karthik V. Periyasamy S. Muthumari P.

Water and Wastewater Treatment

The improper disposal of drugs into bodies of water has become a severe environmental and health issue. Biochar synthesized from different agro residues could be a potential material for the adsorption of pollutants in aqueous environments. Nephelium lappaceum seeds were pyrolyzed at 600 °C in a...

Studies on Kinetics, Isothermal Modelling and Optimization of Cow Dung Adsorbent for Synthetic Dairy Wastewater Treatment

by Anitha A. Dawn S. Muthukumaravel K. Praveen R.

Water and Wastewater Treatment

The dairy industry is a major food industry that processes raw milk into a variety of products. The milk processing factory produces DWE with soluble organic components, suspended particles, and trace elements. These components degrade, causing cloudiness and odour. Adsorbing total solids (TS) and...
