Characterization and Ofloxacin Adsorption Studies of Chemically Modified Activated Carbon from Cassava Stem.

Cassava is a type of crop popular in Asian countries. It can be easily cultivated and grows to a mature plant in 9 months. Considering its availability, this work studied activated carbon based on cassava stem.

Feasibility of incorporating waste grass clippings (Lolium perenne L.) in particleboard composites.

This study investigated some of the important physical (thickness swelling) and mechanical (modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity and internal bond) properties of single-layer particleboard panels made from eucalyptus (Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn.), waste of grass clippings (Lolium perenne L.) and combinations of the two.
