The absorbing capacity of clay,roasting bentonites by 450 degrees C and dual-cation organobentonites of the pollutions in landfill leachate was compared through static experiment, and investigations were conducted into availability of controlling the permeating of landfill leachate and feasibility of removing the main pollutants in leachate on the double mineral base liners of clay/roasting bentonites by 450 degrees C and clay/dual-cation organobentonites by using nice landfill leachate as the filter fluid. Experiment indicated that the adsorption equilibrium time of landfill leachate in clay, roasting bentonites by 450 degrees C and dual-cation organobentonites was 24 h; the absorbing capacity of roasting bentonites by 450 degrees C and dual-cation organobentonites was larger than that of clay. Simultaneous the penetration coefficients of the two liners were respective 1.31 x 10(-8) cm x s(-1) and 2.80 x 10(-8) cm x s(-1); Double mineral base liners of clay/roasting bentonites by 450 degrees C owned larger absorbing capacity of NH4+, however, double mineral base liners of clay/dual-cation organobentonites had strong absorbing capacity of organic pollutants and the attenuation rate of COD was 33.82% higher than the other. Conclusion was drawn that different types of modified bentonite should be chosen as "the active layer" according to different styles of landfill pollutants.

This study investigated the pyrolysis of automotive plastic wastes (APW) for the production of diesel-grade oil products using a modified calcium bentonite clay catalyst. The research aimed to optimize the process for maximum oil yield and diesel range organics yield. The APW was characterized by its chemical composition and physical properties and the optimal temperature and catalyst amount were determined for maximum oil yield and diesel range hydrocarbons.

Bentonites and montmorillonites, natural clay minerals originating from volcanic ash, possess unique properties that have traditionally been utilized in industrial applications. Recently, their potential biomedical applications, particularly in dermatology, have garnered significant interest. This review explores the cutaneous benefits of bentonites and montmorillonites, highlighting their anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, oil-absorbing, drug delivery, photoprotective, and anti-aging effects.

Antibiotics are of emerging concern due to their widespread use, lack of adequate treatment, and for their potential to threaten human health and the environment. Here, a facile fabrication approach for synthesizing ZnO/CuO-bentonite composites was investigated via carbon-bed pyrolysis of bentonite followed by ZnO/CuO co-precipitation. Sorbents were synthesized using a range of bentonite pyrolysis temperatures, metal oxide contents, and ZnO:CuO mass ratios.

This study presents the development of organo-bentonites (OBs); a cost-effective drug delivery system holding both sensing and imaging capabilities. The OBs were synthesized using quaternary ammonium cations derived from chitosan, Lawsonia inermis, and pyrene/anthracene carboxaldehyde combinations through a three-step process: Mannich reaction, quaternization, and intercalation. Physicochemical characterization confirms the organic modification of bentonite.

Bentonite-based adsorbents for the removal of hydrogen sulfide (HS) were prepared by a wet-mixing method using carbide slag as the active component. The effects of carbide slag content, calcination temperature, calcination time, and reaction temperature on the HS adsorption capacity were investigated. The results showed that compared with the blank bentonite adsorbent, the carbide slag-modified bentonite-based adsorbent enhanced the chemisorption of HS.
