TL;DR: Oak bark out-performed the other chars and nearly mimicked Calgon F-400 adsorption for lead and cadmium, and the oak bark char's ability to remove Pb(II) and Cd( II) is remarkable when considered in terms of the amount of metal adsorbed per unit surface area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cadmium and lead remediation using magnetic oak wood and oak bark fast pyrolysis bio-chars
TL;DR: Magnetic oak wood biochar (MOWBC) and magnetic oak bark (MOBBC) were obtained from oak wood and oak bark biochars made by fast pyrolysis during bio-oil production as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advanced Oxidation Processes for the Removal of Antibiotics from Water. An Overview
TL;DR: In this article, the main challenges and prospects of advanced oxidation processes for the removal of antibiotics from wastewaters are pointed out, as well as some recommendations for the improvement of AOPs aimed at removing antibiotics from water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of magnetic activated carbon from almond shells for trinitrophenol removal from water
TL;DR: Magnetic and non-magnetic low cost activated carbons from almond shells were prepared, characterized, and used to remove 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) from water as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical conductivity of carbon blacks under compression
TL;DR: In this article, the electrical conductivity of six commercial carbon blacks under compression was measured at room temperature by impedance spectroscopy over the frequency range 20-106 Hz with a voltage of 1 V.
