Production of biodiesel from natural oils and fats can be achieved using various technologies briefly discussed in this review. A particular appealing concept for production of green diesel is selective catalytic deoxygenation of... more
Wastewater reuse has been attracted a lot of attention in recent years especially in places with low water availability. The effluents that were considered to be discharged are now could be used as potential sources of reusable water. In... more
In this work, the adsorption of chromium(VI) was studied on activated carbon prepared from Tamarind wood with zinc chloride activation. Adsorption studies were conducted in the range of 10–50mg/l initial chromium(VI) concentration and at... more
Kinetics of batch adsorption of iron II ions from aqueous solution using activated carbon from waste Nigerian based Nigerian bamboo was studied. The bamboo was cut into sizes, washing and drying was carbonized at 400oC-500oC and activated... more
Several series of activated carbons have been prepared by chemical activation of peach stones with ZnCl 2 in order to show the effect of variables such as a precursor particle size, extent of impregnation, impregnation method, and... more
Phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) treated rice husks, followed by carbonization in a flowing nitrogen were used to study the adsorption of malachite green (MG) in aqueous solution. The effect of adsorption on contact... more
