Electronic waste or e-waste is one of the emerging problems in developed and developing countries worldwide. It comprises a multitude components with valuable materials, some containing toxic substances, that can have an adverse impact on human health environment. Previous studies show India has generated 0.4 million tons 2010 which may increase to 0.5 0.6 by 2013-2014. Coupled lack appropriate infrastructural facilities procedures for its disposal recycling posed significant importance...

This study is focused on the possible use of Ceratocystis paradoxa MSR2 native biomass for Cr(VI) biosorption. The influence experimental parameters such as initial pH, temperature, dosage, concentration and contact time were optimized using batch systems well response surface methodology (RSM). Maximum removal 68.72% was achieved, at an optimal condition dosage 2g L−1, 62.5 mg L−1 60 min. closeness predicted values exhibit success RSM. biosorption mechanism biosorbent described by Langmuir...

Improved treatment of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in water is critically important light the proposed United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) drinking regulations at ng L−1 levels. The addition peroxymonosulfate (PMS) during electrochemical oxidation (EO) can remove destroy PFAS, but levels have not been tested, PMS itself be toxic. objective this research was to test peroxydisulfate (PDS, an alternative PMS) activation by boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes for...
