Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption of heavy metals onto activated carbons derived from polyacrylonitrile fiber.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the formation of cyclized structure by oxidation treatment minimized the nitrogen loss during steam activation, hence increased the uptake performance of activated carbons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Green tide formed by free-floating Ulva spp. at Yatsu tidal flat, Japan

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that the expansion of green tide was related to such factors as an increase in Kira's Warmth Index, a decrease in annual cumulative hourly air temperatures below 7°C in December, an increased salinity, and unintentional introduction of Ulva ohnoi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of nitrate ions from water by activated carbons (ACs)—Influence of surface chemistry of ACs and coexisting chloride and sulfate ions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the performance of activated carbons (ACs) for the removal of nitrate ions in aqueous solution using activated carbon and found that activated ACs exhibited the greatest Langmuir adsorption capacity and affinity for nitrate removal among the total 7 ACs examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of phosphorus fluctuation caused by river water dilution in eutrophic lake on competition between blue-green alga Microcystis aeruginosa and diatom Cyclotella sp

TL;DR: The decrease in phosphorus concentration due to the river water dilution to Lake Tega would be interpreted as a minor factor for the transition of dominant species from M. aeruginosa to Cyclotella sp.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface properties and water vapor adsorption–desorption characteristics of bamboo-based activated carbon

TL;DR: The structural and surface chemical characteristics of prepared activated carbons were determined by N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherms and Boehm titration, respectively.
