Superior dye adsorption capacity of amorphous WO3 sub-micrometer rods fabricated by glancing angle deposition
Pradip Basnet,Yiping Zhao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, amorphous tungsten trioxide (WO3) sub-micrometer rods (SMRs) fabricated by the glancing angle deposition technique were observed to exhibit superior MB adsorption capability in aqueous solution due to their large specific surface area and active surface functionality.

Experimental and DFT investigation of ceria-nanocomposite decorated AC derived from groundnut shell for efficient removal of methylene-blue from wastewater effluent
Muntathir Alshabib,Musa Azeez Oluwadamilare,Abdulkadir Tanimu,Ismail Abdulazeez,Khalid Alhooshani,Saheed A. Ganiyu +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported an incorporation of nano ceria at different weight loadings via solid state impregnation on the highly porous activated carbon (AC) derived from groundnut shell to form nano-ceria decorated AC for effective removal of cationic dye (methylene blue).

Thermally reduced graphene: synthesis, characterization and dye removal applications
Muhammad Iqbal,Ahmed Abdala +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, thermally reduced graphene (TRG) was used as an adsorbent to remove methyl orange (MO) dye from aqueous solution and the results indicated that MO adsorption on TRG can be described as monolayer type (Langmuir) adaption.

Biomass derived palygorskite–carbon nanocomposites: Synthesis, characterisation and affinity to dye compounds
Binoy Sarkar,Binoy Sarkar,Erming Liu,Erming Liu,Stuart McClure,Jayaraman Sundaramurthy,M.P. Srinivasan,Ravi Naidu,Ravi Naidu,Ravi Naidu +9 more
TL;DR: Using a hydrothermal carbonisation technique, a uniform dispersion of nano-scale carbon spheres was formed on partially destroyed palygorskite structures, which indicated the formation of graphitised carbon nanoparticles, generated a 17-fold greater specific surface area than Composite 1 and also created micro- and mesopores in its structure as mentioned in this paper.

Pore and solid diffusion models for fixed-bed adsorbers
TL;DR: In this article, the prosity factor of the pore model is shown to be very important, especially as the porosity decreases, and the importance of the two diffusional models with respect to the predicted breakthrough curves is demonstrated.
