Copper is a non-biodegradable heavy metal, and high levels in water bodies cause serious environmental health issues. Douglas fir biochar has higher number of carboxylic, phenolic, lactonic groups, which provide suitable active sites for copper removal. (BC) was modified using 20% solutions KOH (KOH/BC), H2SO4, (H2SO4/BC), Na2CO3 (Na2CO3/BC). All materials were characterized SEM, SEM-EDS, FTIR, TGA, XRD, BET, elemental analysis. These modifications done to compare the activations those by...
The study assessed the intervention of foliar application silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on heavy metal toxicity and phytoremediation status Abelmoschus esculentus planted in gold-mined soil. green synthesized AgNPs absorbed maximally at 425 nm, had an average particle size 55 ± 2.3 nm peaks 3,443 1,636 cm-1. A. seeds were grown soil its seedlings wetted with water different concentrations (0.75, 0.50 0.25 mg/mL). Foliar applications significantly improved percentage remediation reduced...
The influence of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2NPs) biofabricated with leaf extract Terminalia catappa for modulating Abelmoschus esculentus characteristics was investigated. TiO2NPs were characterized to be monoclinic-shaped-crystalline-clustered particles a characteristic peak at 366 nm and particle size 75.24 ± 1.12 nm. A. seeds grown on soil amended different concentrations water 28 days. TiO2NPs-grown had enhanced germination percentage from 40 60%; root length 15.75 23.96 cm;...
Pharmaceuticals as an increasing water contaminant pose major hazards to quality and human health. Hydroxyapatite (HAp) has shown promise in the treatment of many contaminants, although it could be improved. The adsorption capacity silver titanium dioxide nanoparticles doped calcined HAp (AgNPs-TiO2NPs@calcined HAp) for acetaminophen (ACT) Ibuprofen (IBP) was investigated this study. Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray...
The levels of heavy metals in soil samples from selected major roads under construction, burrow sites (a place where was obtained for road filling) and two use have been investigated. Soil were collected digested using standard methods. digests analyzed Ni, Cr, Zn, Cd, Cu Pb Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. data subjected to descriptive statistics, non linear regression one way analysis variance (ANOVA). results showed that cadmium had the highest Contamination Factor (CF). Pollution...
