The purpose of this study is to promote a new way application composite materials restore eutrophic waters. A sustainable based on the “teabag” method, in which were placed water-permeable bags and immersed water column order sorb phosphate—one main contributory element for eutrophication problem. Particularly, two composites Phoslock™ (lanthanum-modified bentonite, LMB) Bephos™ (Fe-modified f-MB) tested bench-scale batch experiments employed investigate their sorption efficiency forms...
During the last decades, one of most contentious environmental issues has been investigation fate microplastics (MPs) and detrimental consequences in natural water resources worldwide. In this respect, it is critical research firstly to track ways which MPs are determined as key anthropogenic pollutants terms ecological risk secondly plan feasible policies under role science society tackling global issue future should be prioritized. study, a systematic theoretical, technical, planning...
The research objective of the study is estimation Phoslock TM as a P&N-inactivation agent in overlying water and sediment cores under oxic anoxic conditions from polluted pond.Phoslock was compared with ferrihydrite, unmodified bentonite (N-Bentonite), natural Zeolite (N-Zeolite), Alum commercial Z2G1 .Under conditions, maximum sorption capacities (q m ) calculated Langmuir model were 14.1, 12.4, 11.2, 9.1 3.7 mg g -1 for , alum, Z2G1, bentonite, respectively.However, followed order: > alum...
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency Fe-modified bentonite as adsorbent for phosphate removal from natural waters with an additional estimation sediment capping effectiveness preventing phosphorus release eutrophic lake sediments. A modified inorganic (Zenith/Fe) based on Zenith-N, prepared by embedding Fe in its interlayer space. Its morphology and structure thoroughly characterized adsorption isotherms were evaluated a wide range pH. initial concentration 0.1...
The research objective of the study is estimation a novel low-cost composite material f-MB (Fe-modified bentonite) as P and N adsorbent from wastewaters. Τhe present aimed at examining phosphate ammonium removal efficiency different types wastewater using f-MB, by conducting bench-scale batch experiments to investigate its equilibrium characteristics kinetics. SEM analysis revealed that platelets bentonite in do not form normal sheets, but they have been restructured more compact formation...
Nowadays severe causes of environmental depletion among water sources are related to excessive disposal phosphorus and nitrogen nutrients at aqueous environments subsequently the dominant phenomenon eutrophication reported via visible cyanobacterial or algal blooms, surface scums, floating plant materials, benthic macrophyte aggregations.Such pollution problems also deteriorating by fish kills in environments, being primarily caused oxygen shortage release toxic substances.In this research...
Efficient photon to charge (PTC) transfer is considered be the cornerstone of technological improvements in photovoltaic (PV) industry, while it constitutes most common process nature. This study aims investigate parameters that impact efficient PV-cell conversion two ways: (a) providing a brief research analysis extract key features which affect electrical and optical performance PV cells’ operation, (b) investigating dependance these characteristics on mechanisms. The former direction...
In recent decades, the steady increase of energy consumption from building construction and operations cause atmospheric pollution significant financial burden, mainly due to high costs imposed production. This study examines ways under which modern designs a can be applied on domestication while following conventional methods construction, compared that has been constructed domesticated bioclimatic architecture. Particularly, two buildings were investigated in terms incurred, being built...
