Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation of phenol and the adsorption of breakdown products using a graphite adsorbent with electrochemical regeneration
TL;DR: In this article, the process of adsorption using an unexpanded graphite intercalation compound (GIC) adsorbent with electrochemical regeneration has been investigated for the removal and oxidation of phenol in wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic investigation of phytochemicals involved in green synthesis of gold nanoparticles using aqueous Elaeis guineensis leaves extract: Role of phenolic compounds and flavonoids.
Tausif Ahmad,Mohamad Azmi Bustam,Muhammad Irfan,Muhammad Moniruzzaman,H.M.A. Asghar,Sekhar Bhattacharjee +5 more
TL;DR: Qualitative and quantitative determination of key biocompounds contributing to the formation of AuNPs using aqueous Elaeis guineensis leaves extract is reported and reaction mechanism explained the roles of phenolic compounds and flavonoids in producing spherical‐shaped AuNBP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Green synthesis of stabilized spherical shaped gold nanoparticles using novel aqueous Elaeis guineensis (oil palm) leaves extract
Tausif Ahmad,Mohamad Azmi Bustam,Muhammad Irfan,Muhammad Moniruzzaman,H.M.A. Asghar,Sekhar Bhattacharjee +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple, cheap and ecofriendly method is reported to synthesize stabilized gold nanoparticles of size 35-75nm at room temperature using aqueous Elaeis guineensis (oil palm) leaves extract without addition of any external agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disinfection of water by adsorption combined with electrochemical treatment.
TL;DR: In this article, a flake graphite intercalation compound adsorbent was used for the removal of organic contaminants and is amenable to anodic electrochemical regeneration, which can remove 99.98% of E. coli cells from solution after 5min with a ca. 6.5-log 10 reduction in E coli concentration after 10min.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phytosynthesis of cerium oxide nanoparticles and investigation of their photocatalytic potential for degradation of phenol under visible light
Tausif Ahmad,Jibran Iqbal,Mohamad Azmi Bustam,Muhammad Zulfiqar,Nawshad Muhammad,Buthaina Mohamed Al Hajeri,Muhammad Irfan,H.M.A. Asghar,Sami Ullah +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the formation of uniform agglomerated cubic structured cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2-NPs) containing particle size range 13-16nm was confirmed through observing FTIR peak at 560 cm−1, FESEM and EDAX results.
