Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions using carbon aerogel as an adsorbent.
TL;DR: The results indicate the potential application of this method for effluent treatment in industries and also provide strong evidence to support the adsorption mechanism proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of lead(II) by adsorption using treated granular activated carbon: batch and column studies.
TL;DR: A deeper understanding of adsorption behavior of Pb(II) from aqueous systems onto activated carbon and treated activated carbon has been attempted via static and column mode studies under various conditions and the Bohart-Adams model has provided an objective framework to the subjective interpretation of the adsorbent system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorptive removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution by treated sawdust (Acacia arabica).
TL;DR: The adsorption isotherm studies clearly indicated that the adsorptive behaviour of metal ions on treated sawdust satisfies not only the Langmuir assumptions but also the Freundlich assumptions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochemical removal of chromium from wastewater by using carbon aerogel electrodes
TL;DR: The model was further used to optimise the parameters to maximise the percentage Cr-removal to more than 98% and shows a close fit between the experimental results and the model predictions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of abiotically aged LDPE films containing pro-oxidant by bacterial consortium
TL;DR: The degradation of low density polyethylene (LDPE) films containing trace quantities of a representative pro-oxidant (cobalt stearate) was investigated in the presence of well defined enriched microbial strains in Basal salt medium as discussed by the authors.
