Adsorption characteristics of Barmer bentonite for hazardous waste containment application

TL;DR: A comprehensive batch sorption study on Barmer bentonite (BB), an exclusive construction clay mined in India, using lead (Pb2+) as a model contaminant, indicated the possibility of chemisorption of Pb2+ on BB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of the reduction of chemical oxygen demand in wastewater from mineral processing using the coagulation - flocculation, adsorption and Fenton processes.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of multiple parameters on COD reduction were evaluated in detail using polymeric ferric sulphate as coagulant, polyacrylamide as flocculant, granular activated carbon as adsorbent as well as H2O2 and FeSO4·7H2O as Fenton reagents.
