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

open access: yesAsia-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 ...

Lower nitrogen leaching from struvite than monoam monium phosphate is more size-dependent than phosphorus leaching

open access: yesGeoderma
The use of wastewater-derived struvite (MgNH4PO4·6H2O) as a lower water solubility alternative to highly water-soluble phosphorus (P) fertilizers such as monoammonium phosphate (MAP) has been widely hypothesized to reduce fertilizer nitrogen (N) and ...

Characterization and Modeling of Industrial Phosphoric Acids' Rheological Behavior: Impact of Magnesium Monoxide on Viscosity

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the rheological behavior of industrial phosphoric acids (H3PO4) produced at the JORF–LASFAR phosphoric plant in Morocco, with P2O5 concentrations of 18%, 29%, 42%, and 54%. Rheological measurements were performed using a rotary cylinder rheometer over a shear rate range of 1–1000 s−1.

Improving Oxygen Barrier Performance of Polylactide Film by Using Bleached and Unbleached Nanocellulose From Grape Pomace

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Bleached and unbleached nanocelluloses were produced from the exhausted grape pomace and applied as coatings on PLA substrates for sustainable food packaging. Unbleached nanocelluloses were more hydrophobic and amorphous than bleached ones. The resulting bio‐based bleached nanocellulose‐coated PLA films showed a 68% reduction in O2 permeability ...
