ABSTRACT This study examined the degradation of Reactive Red 180 and safranin using zinc oxide photocatalysis. Complete dye removal was achieved for both dyes under optimal conditions within 2 h. For Reactive Red 180, the optimum conditions were pH 10, 0.5 g/L zinc oxide, 25 ppm dye concentration, and 1 L volume. For safranin, the conditions were pH 10,

Eggshell‐Based Biochar for Superior Adsorption of Crystal Violet Dye and Fluoride From Wastewater
ABSTRACT Present study investigates the efficiency of eggshell biochar as a low‐cost and ecofriendly adsorbent for the simultaneous removal of fluoride ions and crystal violet (CV) dye from wastewater. The eggshell waste was pyrolyzed to produce biochar, which was thoroughly characterized and subsequently employed for contaminant adsorption.

Changes in eggshell ultrastructure of Falco naumanni and Tyto alba exposed to pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) [PDF]
Changes in the quality of eggs of birds exposed to environmental contaminants have been described, but few reports concern eggshell ultrastructure. In this study, infertile or addled Lesser Kestrels (Falco naumanni) and Barn owls (Tyto alba) eggs were ...
