Journal ArticleDOI

Band gap tuning and surface modification of carbon dots for sustainable environmental remediation and photocatalytic hydrogen production - A review.

TL;DR: Recent advances on CQDs nanocomposites including their applications in photodegradation of organic pollutants, sensing of heavy metal ions in water and water splitting are discussed critically to narrate the future prospects in this field.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorptive removal of cadmium(II) ions from liquid phase using acid modified carbon-based adsorbents

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive study of the adsorption characteristics of cadmium(II) on modified structures of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon nanofibres (CNFs), activated carbon (AC), and fly ash (FA) was performed using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorptive desulfurization of thiophene, benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene over activated carbon manganese oxide nanocomposite: with column system evaluation

TL;DR: In this article, an as-synthesized activated carbon-manganese oxide nanocomposite consisting 10% optimum metal loading showed significant adsorptive desulfurization efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon nanotube-incorporated alumina as a support for MoNi catalysts for the efficient hydrodesulfurization of thiophenes

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of AlCNTMoNi and AlMoNi catalysts was investigated for their performance in the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of dibenzothiophene in fuels in a batch reactor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response surface optimization, kinetic and thermodynamic studies for effective removal of rhodamine B by magnetic AC/CeO2 nanocomposite.

TL;DR: The study indicated that RhB adsorption by the AC/Fe/Ce magnetic adsorbent has an endothermic character and followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics model and is an effective and promising adsorbents for the cleaning treatment of RhB ions from wastewater by a large scale designed adsorptive system.
