Removal of wood dyes from aqueous solutions by sorption on un-treated pine sawdust
Pimentel C., Freire S., Gómez-Díaz D., (Corresponding) González-Álvarez J.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Synthetic dyes are extensively used in industry for various applications among which is the preparation of dyed wood veneers. The discharge of effluents containing dyes is of great concern due to their toxicity, mutagenicity and carcinogenicity and causes serious environmental problems. In this...Read more
New polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based porous carbons for the removal of industrial wood dyes from aqueous solutions
Domínguez-Ramos L., Tejado I., Gómez-Díaz D., Freire S., Lazzari M., (Corresponding) González-Álvarez J.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Synthetic dyes degradation is a difficult task due to their complex aromatic structure, although its elimination by adsorption is effective. The aim of this research is to produce porous carbons derived from polyacrylonitrile (PAN) as wood dyes adsorbents. PAN is a nitrogen-rich precursor...Read more
Biogas Desulfurization by Pelletized Biomass Ash in a Fixed Bed Arrangement
(Corresponding) Lapp F., Brück F., Liebich T., Lang M., Theilen U., Weigand H.
Topic:
Gas emissions control and utilization
The removal of H2S is a prerequisite to the energetic valorization of biogas in combined heat and power (CHP) plants. Conventionally, the final step in desul-furization involves filtration over granular activated carbon (GAC). Rising market prices for GAC have fostered research on alternative...Read more
