The Utilization of Chicken Egg White Waste-Modified Nanofiber Membrane for Anionic Dye Removal in Batch and Flow Systems: Comprehensive Investigations into Equilibrium, Kinetics, and Breakthrough Curve.

This study investigated the use of chicken egg white (CEW) waste immobilized on weak acidic nanofiber membranes for removing the anionic acid orange 7 (AO7) dye in batch and continuous flow modes. Different experiments were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of CEW-modified nanofiber membranes for AO7 removal, focusing on CEW immobilization conditions, adsorption kinetics, and thermodynamics. The CEW-modified nanofiber membrane (namely NM-COOH-CEW) exhibited a maximum AO7 adsorption capacity of 589.

Study on antibacterial properties of heated oyster shell particle against Bacillus subtilis spores in rainwater by response surface methodology based on central composite design.

Taiwan's oyster industry produces shell waste in abundant quantities every year. This study explored the feasibility of applying this resource as a simple and low-cost disinfectant to improve the microbial quality of harvested rainwater. Critical parameters affecting the disinfection efficacy of calcined oyster shell particles, i.

Investigating the associations between organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) and fine particles in paired indoor and outdoor air: A probabilistic prediction model for deriving OPFRs in indoor environments.

Contaminants of emerging concern such as organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) are associated with atmospheric fine particles (PM), which pose the greatest health risk in the world. However, few surveys have explored the interaction between PM and OPFRs in residential paired indoor/outdoor environments. 11 priority OPFRs and PM were investigated across 178 paired indoor and outdoor air samples taken from 89 children's households in southern Taiwan, across cold and warm seasons.
