Removal of fluoroquinolone antibiotic and sulfonated dye by functionalized Persea americana seed powder: Appraisal on phase transfer kinetics, equilibrium, economics, and applications in rural settings.

The study focuses on reactive orange 16 (RO16), a sulfonated dye, and ciprofloxacin (CiP), a fluoroquinolone antibiotic treatment from aquatic surface by adsorption. The functionalized Persea americana seed powder (PASP) was developed by acid hydrolysis technique and investigated for RO16 and CiP removal in batch scale at different concentrations for CiP and RO16, pH (2-8), contact duration and temperature (303-318K). Utilizing a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), the generated native PASP were assessed for their morphological characteristics.

Molten salt mediated single-step synthesis of reusable nanostructured CaTiO for the removal and recovery of Sr: A potential adsorbent for the contaminated water bodies.

The facile synthesis approach for the adsorbent preparation and recyclability during decontamination of radioactive pollutants is a significant concern in water treatment. The objective of this study is to, synthesis via solid-state reaction of the nanostructured CaTiO for the removal and recovery of strontium (Sr) from the various water sources. The influence of the adsorption-dependent parameters including, initial concentration, adsorbent dose, pH, contact time and co-existing ions interference were investigated.

Conversion of solid wastes and natural biomass for deciphering the valorization of biochar in pollution abatement: A review on the thermo-chemical processes.

This overview addresses the formation of solid trash and the various forms of waste from a variety of industries, which environmentalists have embraced. The paper investigates the negative effects on the environment caused by unsustainable management of municipal solid trash as well as the opportunities presented by the formal system. This examination looks at the origins of solid waste as well as the typical treatment methods.

Single-Step Synthesis of Magnesium-Doped Lithium Manganese Oxide Nanosorbent and Their Polymer Composite Beads for Selective Heavy Metal Removal.

Magnesium-doped lithium manganese oxide nanosorbent is prepared by a single-step solid-state method and characterized with appropriate analytical techniques, adsorption kinetic model, and isotherms. Competitive and noncompetitive adsorption studies are performed for a range of heavy metal ions. Prepared nanosorbent has shown explicit selectivity for various heavy metal ions and no remarkable influence of coexisting common interfering ions (Na, K, Mg, and Ca), which generally coexist with all natural sources of water, contaminated water, and industrial waste.
