1,3-Bis(cyanomethoxy)calix[4]arene capped CdSe quantum dots for the fluorogenic sensing of fluorene
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)
Capping of 1,3-bis(cyanomethoxy)-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (CAD) onto CdSe quantum dots (QDs) was characterized by a fluorescence enhancement of the QDs (?em = 580 nm) upon surface interaction with the phenolic moiety of ...
In situ reductive regeneration of zerovalent iron nanoparticles immobilized on cellulose for atom efficient Cr( VI ) adsorption
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)
Zerovalent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) (11.8 ± 0.2% w/w) immobilized on microcrystalline cellulose (C-nZVI) were synthesized and studied for Cr(VI) sorption. The material showed good atom economy for Cr(VI) adsorption (562.8 ...
Multifaceted application of crop residue biochar as a tool for sustainable agriculture: An ecological perspective
(Elsevier, 2015)
Lignocellulosic crop residue biomass, in surplus, is of vital importance due to its multifaceted utilization potential on- and off-site to agricultural systems; therefore, its management is essential for sustainable ...
Sorptive removal of arsenite [As(III)] and arsenate [As(V)] by fuller’s earth immobilized nanoscale zero-valent iron nanoparticles (F-nZVI): Effect of Fe 0 loading on adsorption activity
(Elsevier, 2016)
Fuller’s earth immobilized nanoscale zerovalent iron (F-nZVI 1–8) were synthesized by borohydride reduction method. The iron loading of fuller’s earth immobilized nZVI was varied from 5 to 50% (w/w) in these F-nZVI 1–8. ...
Removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution: a comparative study of cone biomass of “Picea smithiana” and activated charcoal
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
The present work investigates comparative adsorption efficiency of powdered cone biomass of Picea smithiana (PCBP) and activated charcoal (AC) for removal of hexavalent chromium (Cr) (Cr(VI)) from aqueous solution. The ...
Role of soil physicochemical characteristics on the present state of arsenic and its adsorption in alluvial soils of two agri-intensive region of Bathinda, Punjab, India
(Springer Verlag, 2016)
Purpose: Arsenic (As) contamination of groundwater has received significant attention recently in district Bathinda, due to consequent health risk in this region. Soil is the one of the primary medium for arsenic transport ...
Removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution using biomass derived fly ash from Waste-to- Energy power plant
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)
Fly ash from the agricultural waste-based Energy Power Plant has been studied for the adsorption of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)]. In order to maximize the Cr(VI) removal from simulated aqueous solutions, effects of various ...
In situ reductive regeneration of zerovalent iron nanoparticles immobilized on cellulose for atom efficient Cr(vi) adsorption
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)
Zerovalent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) (11.8 - 0.2% w/w) immobilized on microcrystalline cellulose (C-nZVI) were synthesized and studied for Cr(vi) sorption. The material showed good atom economy for Cr(vi) adsorption (562.8 ...
Effect of temperature and fly ash content on the catalytically pyrolyzed rice straw biochar�fly ash composites for methylene blue adsorption
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2022-09-26)
Rice straw and fly ash are the wastes produced in abundance which need immediate attention for their management. In the present study, the in situ pyrolysis of rice straw in presence of fly ash was carried out and the ...
Adsorption of Zn(II) on Pristine and SPLP/TCLP Leached Rice Straw Biochar: an Interplay of Precipitation and Ion Exchange
(Institute for Ionics, 2022-11-15)
The inorganic mineral content in biochar influences the adsorption of Zn(II) metal ions. Metal ion adsorption on mineral rich rice straw biochar is influenced upon washing. Rice straw slow pyrolysis biochar BC1-3, respectively, ...
