Tetracycline is one of the most widely used antibiotics that causes contamination of aqueous environments and has raised serious concern during the past few years. In this work, adsorption of tetracycline on a modified zeolite was studied through a batch system. Synthetic zeolite 13X was modified using Fe(III). The results show that the removal efficiency […]
The present study used modified nanofiltration (NF) membranes to remove the emerging contaminant of amoxicillin (AMX) from synthetic wastewater. For this purpose, Merpol surfactant and polyvinylpyrrolidone were added to the casting solutions to prepare flat sheet asymmetric polyethersulfone (PES) NF membranes through phase inversion process. Then, the effect of adding Merpol surfactant at different concentrations […]
Organic liquid waste from food production industry is inevitable. High chemical oxygen demand (COD) contents in organic liquid waste could disrupt the water ecosystem. On the other hand, COD contents can be reduced and utilized to produce biogas by UASB reactor. However, there is a problem in operating UASB reactor, namely the high biomass content […]
Highly dispersed 15.0 wt% cobalt catalysts were prepared on γ-Al2O3, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and graphene nanosheet (GNS) using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) procedure. The physico-chemical properties of the catalysts were studied by inductively coupled plasma (ICP), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) techniques, and the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis […]
Aluminum is a valuable material, which can be used for water and wastewater treatment. It exists in metal as well as in salt form. The efficiency of water and wastewater treatment depends upon the technology applied to treat. Sugarcane industry is coming under those industries which have a large amount of freshwater and release large […]
