The use of biochar from waste wooden biomass for removal of emerging pollutants

(Corresponding) Žgajnar Gotvajn A., Carvalho A., Marinšek M., Kalčikova G.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Biochar can be produced usig variety of waste biomass to achieve goals of zero waste management and circular economy. It has been used as adsorbent in the past for water and wastewater treatment. Recetly, the application of natural porous materials for removal of emerging pollutants gained a lot of...Read more

Characterization of activated carbon prepared from Aegina pistachio shells for Hg removal

(Corresponding) Karagianni E., Chatzitheodoridis E., Papassiopi N.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Preparation of activated carbon from agricultural bio-products is a promising way to produce useful adsorbents for Hg removal. In this study Aegina pistachio shells were used as raw materials and the activation was carried out by impregnation with ZnCl2 and heating at 750oC under N2 atmosphere...Read more

Coal fly ash zeolites as adsorbents for effective removal of heavy metals and dyes from contaminated waters

Zgureva D., (Corresponding) Boycheva S., Behunová D., Václavíková M.

Topic:

Wastewater treatment

Recently, the purification of enormous amounts contaminated industrial, agricultural and municipal waters increases the demands of low-cost and technologically feasible techniques. The application of natural zeolites in wastewater treatment is known from many years. A feasible approach for...Read more
