Activated carbon-polyethyleneimine-alginate composite fiber for scavenging pharmaceuticals with different charges from aqueous solutions

Dangi Y., Choi J., Lim C., Song M., Han M., Lin X., (Corresponding) Yun Y.
Topic: 
Water treatment
Activated carbon (AC) is a potential adsorbent for water purification, though it is difficult to separate after use. To solve this problem, for the first time, the ternary composite fiber (ACPEIA) of AC, polyethyleneimine (PEI), and alginate (A) was fabricated as a multifunctional adsorbent for...Read more

Removal of copper (II) from aqueous solution using biopolymer-based materials: Theoretical and statistical physics investigation for wastewater treatment

ELBOUGHDIRI N., FERKOUS H., ROUIBAH K., DELIM A., BOUBLIA A., ALGETHAMI J., ALQAHTANI M., JEON B., (Corresponding) Yadav Y., BENGUERBA Y.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
Pollution from heavy metals is increasingly recognized as a major threat to Earth's ecosystem. Due to the potential economic and ecological consequences, there is an urgent need to develop waste management systems and strategies for disposing of copper ions (Cu2+) from the industrial sector...Read more
