Journal ArticleDOI

The role of sawdust in the removal of unwanted materials from water.

TL;DR: Sawdust, a relatively abundant and inexpensive material is currently being investigated as an adsorbent to remove contaminants from water as discussed by the authors, and chemical substances including dyes, oil, toxic salts and heavy metals can be removed very effectively with the organic material.
Journal ArticleDOI

The removal of heavy metal from aqueous solutions by sawdust adsorption - removal of copper.

TL;DR: Locally available sawdust, a byproduct of the world industry, was found to be a low cost and promising adsorbent for the removal of copper(II) from wastewater and provides strong evidence to support the hypothesis of adsorption mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption of chromium from aqueous solutions by maple sawdust

TL;DR: The experimental result inferred that chelation ion exchange is one of the major adsorption mechanisms for binding metal ions to the maple sawdust.
Journal ArticleDOI

The removal of heavy metals from aqueous solutions by sawdust adsorption--removal of lead and comparison of its adsorption with copper.

TL;DR: The results indicate the potentially practical value of this method in industries and also provide strong evidence to support the adsorption mechanism proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Membrane-based separation of potential emerging pollutants

TL;DR: Of these methods, membrane-based separation processes (MBSPs) are effective over the conventional techniques for providing clean water from wastewater streams at an affordable cost with minimum energy requirement.
