Comparative Study of Engineered Bio-Sorbents Derived from Agricultural Waste.

International Journal of Research and Innovation in Applied Science
Oil spill contamination poses severe environmental and health hazards, particularly in regions like the Niger Delta, where crude oil exploration is predominant. This study investigates the feasibility of utilizing agricultural waste materials such as pineapple leaves, pumpkin stems, and kola nut pod fibers to develop structured natural sorbents.

Tea residue as a bio-sorbent for the treatment of textile industry effluents

International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology, 2020
Tea residue, a common waste obtained from households and beverage industries, was studied as an efficient bio-sorbent for the extraction of methylene blue (MB) from textile industry effluents by varying key operational parameters such as pH, contact time and adsorbent dosage.

Cost effective separation of uranium ion using exhausted household products and natural bio-sorbent

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 2021
Dried coconut leaf, Exhausted tea leaf and coffee powder were used to demonstrate the cost effective sorption of UO22+ ion from aqueous solution. The Kd followed the order: coconut leaf > tea leaf > coffee powder. The sorption mechanism was evaluated by linearly fitting the experimental data into different isotherm models: Langmuir, Dubinin ...

Chitosan–Gelatin Cryogels as Bio-Sorbents for Removal of Dyes from Aqueous Solutions

2021
Dye effluents of wastewater of textile and other industries, particularly reactive azo dyes, are serious safety and health problem for the environment and living organisms. This study demonstrates the results of the removal of Procion Red MX-5B (PR MX-5B) from an aqueous solution by using cryogels prepared from natural polymers.

Competitive adsorption and desorption of three tetracycline antibiotics on bio-sorbent materials in binary systems

Environmental Research, 2020
Batch-type experiments were used to study competitive adsorption/desorption for the antibiotics tetracycline (TC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and chlortetracycline (CTC), onto by-products from forest and food industries (oak ash, pine bark, and mussel shell). These antibiotics are frequently present in manures and slurries spread on agrosystems.

Removal of lead and fluoride from contaminated water using exhausted coffee grounds based bio-sorbent

Journal of Environmental Management, 2018
Water pollution by industrial and anthropogenic actives has become a serious threat to the environment. World Health Organization (WHO) has identified that lead and fluoride amid the environmental pollutants are most poisonous water contaminants with devastating impact on the human race.

ENVIRONMENTALLY BENIGN BIO-SORBENT MATERIALS FOR THE HEAVY METALS REMOVAL

The incorporation of heavy metals in the water sources due to rapid industrial development has steered the contamination of water resources. The toxic pollutants from the contaminated water are eliminated by cost-effective, environmentally friendly, efficient, and recyclable bio-sorbents having lesser chemical oxygen demand.

Removal of Uranium from aqueous solution using potato peels as bio-sorbent

Journal of Research in Environmental and Earth Sciences
Potato peel (PP) as bio-residue from the food processing industry used as novel uranium adsorbents, applied for studying the adsorption of uranium from aqueous solution. In batch studies, the adsorption of uranium (U, VI) from aqueous solutions onto PP was examined. From FTIR, PP represented function group (carboxyl, amino, and hydroxyl) on its surface
