Photoadsorption and reaction mechanism of periwinkle shell ash in the removal of hazardous dye

Water Practice and Technology, 2023
AbstractCombined adsorption and photocatalysis synergy was explored in this research because the porosity of activated carbon and hydroxyl radicals' generation are the main drivers of the adsorption and photodecomposition efficiency of dyes. In this study, periwinkle shell ash (PSA) activated at 800 °C was used for the adsorption of toxic crystal ...

Species which may act as vectors or reservoirs of diseases covered by the Animal Health Law: Listed pathogens of crustaceans

EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Vector or reservoir species of three diseases of crustaceans listed in the Animal Health Law were identified based on evidence generated through an extensive literature review, to support a possible updating of Regulation (EU) 2018/1882.

Exploration of agricultural residue ash as a solid green heterogeneous base catalyst for biodiesel production

Engineering Reports, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Transesterification of vegetable oils with homogeneous catalyst for biodiesel synthesis is considered to have a promising future, but it is nonrenewable and hazardous. High production cost, in terms of feedstock oil and catalyst acquisition is one of the major challenges facing the global commercialization of biodiesel.

Development of Aluminium Based Mango Seed Mangiferaindica Shell Ash (MSSA) Particulate Metal Matrix Composite

International Journal of Engineering Materials and Manufacture, 2021
A composite material is a combination of two or more chemically distinct and insoluble phases; its properties and structural performance are superior to those of the constituents acting independently.

Potential Heterogeneous Catalysts from Three Biogenic Residues toward Sustainable Biodiesel Production: Synthesis and Characterization

ChemistrySelect, Volume 7, Issue 48, December 27, 2022., 2022
Heterogeneous base catalysts were synthesized from the periwinkle shell, melon seed husk, and locust bean pod husk via thermal decomposition at 800°C. The catalysts were characterized by their elemental, structural, and functional compositions. The three catalysts gave appreciable biodiesel yields and good stability throughout the transesterification ...

Optimization on the Mechanical Properties of Aluminium 8079 Composite Materials Reinforced with PSA

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
AA 8079 with variable percentages of peanut shell ash (PSA) was created by stir casting (2.5 percent, 5 percent, 7.5 percent, 10 percent, 12.5 percent, and 15 percent). Compared some of the physical and mechanical properties of the composite material were to the alloy matrix alloy (density; porosity percentage; hardness; wear index; tensile strength ...

Development of PSA@PS-TiO2 nanocomposite photocatalyst: structure, mechanism, and application using response surface designs and molecular modeling

Water Science and Technology, 2023
Using periwinkle shell ash (PSA) and polystyrene (PS), a new-fangled PSA@PS-TiO2 photocatalyst was fabricated. The morphological images of all the samples studied using a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) showed a size ...

Swelling Potential of Clayey Soil Modified with Rice Husk Ash Activated by Calcination for Pavement Underlay by Plasticity Index Method (PIM)

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Volume change in expansive soils is a problem encountered in earth work around the world. This is prominent with hydraulically bound structures or foundations subjected to prolonged moisture exposure. This behavior of clayey used as subgrade, foundation, landfill, or backfill materials causes undesirable structural functionality and failures.

Modelling Reviewed Hydraulic Indices of Periwinkle Shell Ash Occasioned by Variations in Calcination Temperature

International Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering, 2022
Periwinkle shellfish can be found in abundance in the Niger Delta's wetlands. Periwinkle shells are frequently piled in open fields and landfills, resulting in pollution and the development of disease-carrying organisms. Attempts have been made to employ periwinkle shell ash (PSA) as recycled materials in cement-based products in order to manage ...
