Conversion of coal fly ash by-products into high-grade zeolite by a quasi natural crystallization process

Zgureva D., (Corresponding) Boycheva S.
Topic: 
Hazardous waste management
Recently, the synthesis of zeolites from coal fly ash (FA) has been extensively studied regarding the process optimization, industrial upscaling and technological commercialization. The obtaining of fly ash zeolites (FAZ) is based on the transformation of aluminosilicates of FA by alkaline...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

Magnetite nanoparticles activated coal fly ash zeolites with application in waste water remediation

(Corresponding) Boycheva S., Miteva S., Trendafilova I., Zgureva D., Václavíková M., Popova M.
Topic: 
Wastewater treatment
The application of zeolites in wastewater treatment is studied long ago but still many unexploited opportunities exist. Recent investigations on natural and synthetic zeolites in water decontamination are focused on the improvement of their adsorption and ion-exchange properties modifying them by...Read more

Cobalt- and copper-modified coal fly ash nanozeolites for environmental protection applications

(Corresponding) Boycheva S., Marinov I., Lazarova H., Zgureva D., Václavíková M., Popova M.
Topic: 
Nanomaterials in the environmnents applications and effects
Fly ash zeolites (FAZ) are promising materials for adsorbents, ion-exchangers and catalysts. FAZ usually possess a mixed micro-mesoporous structure that facilitates mass transport phenomena through their framework. Due to the transfer of iron spinel oxides and many metal species from the raw...Read more

Studies on the CO2 adsorption mechanism of Na-X and Na-Ca-X coal fly ash zeolites

(Corresponding) Boycheva S., Lazarova H., Zgureva D., Popova M.
Topic: 
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Coal fly ash zeolites (CFAZ) of Na-X and Na-Ca-X types were synthesized using as raw materials fly ashes generated by the combustion of lignite from various deposits with low and medium limestone content. It has been found that CFAZs with higher calcium content superior those containing less...Read more
