Adsorptive removal of gas-phase mercury by oxygen non-thermal plasma modified activated carbon

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of oxygen non-thermal plasma modification on the surface properties and mercury removal performance of activate carbon (AC) were investigated, and the results indicated that the modified ACs were slightly damaged, but the surface chemistries such as the content of surface oxygen-containing groups were significantly changed.

Synthesis of β-cyclodextrin and starch based polymers for sorption of azo dyes from aqueous solutions

TL;DR: Three beta-cyclodextrin and starch based polymers were synthesized using hexamethylene diisocyanate as a cross-linking agent in dry dimethylformamide used as a sorbent for the removal of some selected azo dyes from aqueous solutions and exhibited high sorption capacities toward Direct Violent 51.
