Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrothermal carbonization of municipal waste streams.
TL;DR: The composition of the produced hydrochar suggests both dehydration and decarboxylation occur during carbonization, resulting in structures with high aromaticities, and process energetics suggest feedstock carbonization is exothermic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of heavy metals from water sources in the developing world using low-cost materials: A review.
TL;DR: This review evaluates the use of adsorbents from four major categories: agricultural waste; naturally-occurring soil and mineral deposits; aquatic and terrestrial biomass; and other locally-available waste materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption characteristics of diclofenac and sulfamethoxazole to graphene oxide in aqueous solution

TL;DR: The adsorptive properties of graphene oxide (GO) were characterized, and the binding energies of diclofenac (DCF) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) on GO adsorption were predicted using molecular modeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of reaction time and temperature on product formation and characteristics associated with the hydrothermal carbonization of cellulose.
TL;DR: Results from batch experiments indicate that the majority of cellulose conversion occurs between the first 0.5-4h, and faster conversion occurs at higher temperatures, and data collected over time suggest cellulose solubilization occurs prior to conversion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of bisphenol A and 17α-ethinyl estradiol on single walled carbon nanotubes from seawater and brackish water
TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption of bisphenol A (BPA) and 17α-ethinyl estradiol (EE2) by single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was investigated.
