Optimizing ciprofloxacin removal from water using jamun seed (Syzygium cumini) biochar: A sustainable approach for ecological protection
(Elsevier, 2024-01-01)
Scientific interest in antimicrobial pollutants, such as ciprofloxacin, has increased. Due to spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, resistance genes, and their dissemination to the environment. Therefore, their remediation ...
Development of photocatalytic semiconductors and nanocomposites with excellent optoelectronic and electrochemical properties for dye effluent remediation -A review
(Elsevier, 2024-12)
Myriads of photocatalytic semiconductors and their corresponding nanocomposites have been investigated for the remediation of toxic dye molecules in textile effluent however, notable challenges are reported of their ...
Ecological Consequences of Antibiotics Pollution in Sub-Saharan Africa: Understanding Sources, Pathways, and Potential Implications
(KeAi, 2025-01-25)
In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the increasing use of antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine, combined with inadequate waste and water management systems, has intensified the problem of antibiotic pollution. Untreated ...
Process modeling and optimization of photocatalytic treatment of dye-polluted effluent using novel polyaniline/graphene oxide-Fe3O4-Ag nanocomposites
(Elsevier, 2024-12-01)
This study developed a novel photocatalytic nanocomposite via in situ polymerization with 3 % blend of graphene oxide (GO), magnetite (Fe3O4) and silver nanoparticle (Ag-Nps) from AgNO3. Also, the process applied a new ...
Enhancing the optoelectronic properties of blended triphenylamine-betalain based dyes through tailoring the anchoring unit: a theoretical investigation
(Taylor & Francis, 2024-11-25)
A series triphenyl-betalain organic dyes featuring carboxylic acid and nitro anchoring groups CH = C(X)COOH for the A1-X dyes and -CH = C(X)NO2 for the A2-X dyes, respectively, where X = CN, CH3, CCl3 and CF3 was evaluated ...
Capacitive deionization: Capacitor and battery materials, applications and future prospects
(Elsevier, 2024-09-15)
Water scarcity all over the world attracts alternative methods to purify saline water and supplement the available dwindling freshwater resources. Capacitive deionization (CDI) is hopeful to supply water to the population ...
The enhanced performance of NaFe2PO4(SO4)2/C electrode materials in the desalination of brackish water by capacitive deionization
(Elsevier, 2024-12-15)
In this study partial substitution of phosphates in Na3Fe2(PO4)3/C (NFP/C) by sulphates to prepare Na2Fe2(PO4)2SO4 (NFP2S/C) and NaFe2PO4(SO4)2/C (NFPS/C) was carried out by dissolution-evaporation method. The idea is to ...
Research progress of sodium super ionic conductor electrode materials for capacitive deionization
(Elsevier, 2024-07)
The world is suffering from water shortage and the hope relies on the desalination of salty water. Several technologies are available for desalination such as reverse osmosis and electrodialysis. However, the application ...
Adsorption of phenol and methylene blue contaminants onto high-performance catalytic activated carbon from biomass residues
(Cellpress, 2025-01-15)
Organic contaminants from wastewater toxicity to the environment has increased during the last few decades and, therefore, there is an urgent need to decontaminate wastewater prior to disposal. This study aimed to create ...
Enhancements of Heat Islands in the Growing Cities in Developing Countries Due to Land Use Land Cover Changes and Climate Change: A Case of Babati-Tanzania
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2024-12-09)
Climate is changing no doubt, with anthropogenic activities considered as the main driver of the change. Flooding, drought and urban heat island (UHI) are some impacts of climate change (CC). Additionally, land use land ...
