ZnO nanoparticles at different pH were synthesised by a sol-gel technique from zinc acetate dihydrate calcination temperature of 450 °C. The synthesized characterised x-ray diffraction (XDR) peak profile analysis, high-resolution scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. effects solution on the crystallite size using Williamson-Hall Debye–Scherrer determined. XRD analysis zincite phase structure was obtained in form spheres for all samples. average sizes...
This research investigated the removal of heavy metals (As, Pb, Cr, Cd, Ni, Cu, Fe, and Zn) via batch adsorption process from industrial electroplating wastewater using two different nano-adsorbents; purified carbon nanotubes (P-CNTs) polyhydroxylbutyrate functionalized (PHB-CNTs), both produced through catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CCVD) method. HRSEM, HRTEM, XRD, DLS, BET, FTIR, XPS, TGA, pH drift Raman spectroscopy were used to characterize developed nano-adsorbents. In process,...
To address environmental pollution caused by dyes and heavy metals, it is crucial to fabricate effective adsorbent material remove contaminants from the environment. In this research, a biogenic-assisted treatment was applied kaolin clay eliminate arsenic ions (As(V)) malachite green (MG) using an adsorption technique. An environmentally friendly ultrasonic method used incorporate Pterocarpus mildraedii into mesoporous structure of (PMKC) with unique flake-like morphology characterized...
In the present work, kaolin sample from Gbako Local Government, Niger State, Nigeria was used as an adsorbent for removal chloride, COD, BOD, sulphate, chromium, cadmium, zinc and reduction of total alkalinity in tannery wastewater. The pretreated to enhance its adsorption capacity then characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), High Resolution Electron Microscopy (HRSEM), Transmission (HRTEM), Energy Dispersive (EDX), Selective Area (SAED)...
Abstract In the present study, comparative studies of kaolin and kaolin/ZnO nanocomposites for adsorption Cr(VI), Fe(III), COD, BOD, chloride from tannery wastewater were investigated. ZnO nanoparticles prepared by sol–gel followed wet-impregnation methods. The adsorbents characterized using different analytical tools such as X-ray diffraction, Fourier transforms infrared, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, selective area diffraction Brunauer...
The efficient removal of toxic metals ions from chemical industry wastewater is considered problematic due to the existence pollutants as mixtures in aqueous matrix, thus development advanced and effective treatment method has been identified a panacea lingering problems heavy metal pollution. In this study, KIAgNPs decorated MWCNTs nano adsorbent was developed using combination green chemistry protocol vapor deposition techniques subsequently characterized UV-Vis, HRTEM, HRSEM, XRD, FTIR...
