Integrated Evaluation of Contaminant Profiles, Detection Techniques, and Management Strategies for Tannery Sludge

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review article critically examines the environmental and health hazards of tannery sludge (TS), a complex by‐product of the leather tanning industry. TS is characterized by a diverse array of contaminants, including heavy metals like chromium, organic pollutants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), volatile organic compounds ...

Hydrochemical assessment of groundwater using multivariate statistical methods and water quality indices (WQIs)

Applied Water Science
Groundwater quality assessment is crucial for the sustainable management of water resources in arid regions, where groundwater is the primary source of water supply and increasing demand raises concerns. The study area in Southwest Algeria relies heavily

Adsorption Characteristics and Mechanisms of Dibutyl Phthalate on Nanomaterials

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is a widely used plasticizer whose environmental release poses significant risks to ecosystems and human health. This study systematically investigated DBP adsorption on three common nanomaterials—titanium dioxide nanoparticles (n‐TiO2), multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), and carboxylated MWCNTs (MWCNTs‐COOH)—using ...

Evaluating the Impact of Cellulose Nanocrystals on the Performance of Polycarbonate Thin‐Film Nanocomposite Membranes for Treating Oily Wastewater

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new type of thin‐film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane was synthesized by incorporating cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) top layer on a polycarbonate (PC) substrate via dip‐coating. The synthesized TFC and TFN membranes (PC/PVA TFC and PC/PVA‐CNC TFN membranes) were evaluated using contact angle measurement, field ...
