Mechanosynthesis, characterization, and adsorptive properties of Mg–Al-LDH and Zn–Al-LDH for olive mill wastewater treatment

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Chimie
Industrial olive oil production is of fundamental economic importance for many Mediterranean countries. However, this industry generates huge amounts of toxic olive mill wastewater (OMW), which could represent a serious threat to human health and ...

Properties Evaluation of Composite Materials Based on Gypsum Plaster and Posidonia Oceanica Fibers

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Estimating the amount of material without significant losses at the end of hybrid casting is a problem addressed in this study. To minimize manufacturing costs and improve the accuracy of results, a correction factor (CF) was used in the formula to ...

Effects of temperature, pH, and iron/clay and liquid/clay ratios on experimental conversion of dioctahedral smectite to berthierine, chlorite, vermiculite, or saponite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In deep geological repositories for high-level nuclear wastes, interactions between steel canisters and clay-rich materials may lead to mineralogical transformations with a loss of the confining properties of the clays.

Mineralogical and isotopic record of diagenesis from the Opalinus Clay formation at Benken, Switzerland: Implications for the modeling of pore-water chemistry in a clay formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Argillaceous rocks are considered to be a suitable geological barrier for the long-term containment of wastes. Their efficiency at retarding contaminant migration is assessed using reactive-transport experiments and modeling, the latter requiring a sound

Clay mineral composition of upland soils and its implication for pedogenesis and soil taxonomy in subtropical China

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Clay minerals are intermediate products generated during soil development, and their neoformation and transformation are closely related to pedogenesis.

A meta-analysis of the effects of clay mineral supplementation on alkaline phosphatase, broiler health, and performance

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2023
: The crucial constraint in the broiler production sector is feed efficiency; many feed additives have been widely employed to increase broiler growth. Nonetheless, some of these substances exacerbate health and animal-based food product safety concerns.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Clay minerals in South Australian Holocene basaltic volcanogenic soils and implications for halloysite genesis and structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The clay mineralogical composition was determined of 8 soils formed from pyroclastic ejecta (tephra) from adjacent 5000-year old basaltic volcanoes at Mounts Gambier and Schank in South Australia.

Possible role of organic matter in radiocaesium adsorption in soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The aim of this review is to examine the hypothesis that organic matter decreases the adsorption of radiocaesium on clay minerals. The factors that determine radiocaesium mobility and bioavailability in soil are briefly outlined to show why a ...
