High-performance material for the effective removal of uranyl ion from solution: computationally supported experimental studies
(Langmuir, 2022)
Adsorption is a widely used method for pollution
removal and for the recovery of valuable species. In recent years, the
use of metal−organic compounds among the adsorbents used in
adsorption studies has increased. In ...
Synthesis and characterization of chitosan-vermiculite-lignin ternary composite as an adsorbent for effective removal of uranyl ions from aqueous solution: Experimental and theoretical analyses
(International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2022)
Chitosan (Ch), vermiculite (V) and lignin (L) were used as the components of a natural composite adsorbent (Ch-VL) for the removal of the UO22+ ions in aqueous solutions. During the study, we recorded and analyzed the ...
Bioremoval of Safranin O dye by the identified lichen species called Evernia prunastri biomass; biosorption optimization, isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamics
(Biomass Conversion and Biorefinery, 2022)
Evernia prunastri (lichen), a novel, eco-friendly, cost-effective, wide availability, safe, renewable and easy collection biosorbent, has been utilized for the removal of Safranin O (SO) dye from an aqueous solution. The ...
Theoretical and experimental insights about the adsorption of uranyl ion on a new designed Vermiculite-Polymer composite
(Journal of Molecular Liquids, 2022)
A new Polyacrylamide (PAA)-Vermiculite (V) composite was synthesized and characterized with the help
of FTIR, SEM, and PZC analyses. The effects of ion concentration, pH and ionic strength parameters to
adsorption process ...
Epichlorohydrin and tripolyphosphate-crosslinked chitosan–kaolin composite for Auramine O dye removal from aqueous solutions: Experimental study and DFT calculations
(International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2022)
Chitosan (Ch, a natural polymer) and kaolin (K, a natural mineral) composite (Ch-K) was produced with the help of two crosslinkers, epichlorohydrin and tripolyphosphate, and then moulded into uniform beads in tripolyphosphate ...
Treatment of the Allura Red food colorant contaminated water by a novel cyanobacterium Desertifilum tharense
(Water Science and Technology, 2022)
The biosorption properties of a newly isolated and identified cyanobacterium called Desertifilum tharense were investigated in the current study. Following morphological and molecular identification (16S rRNA sequencing ...
Insights into effective adsorption of lead ions from aqueous solutions by using chitosan-bentonite composite beads
(Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2022)
The chitosan (Ch)—bentonite (B) composite was synthesized and its adsorption properties were investigated for lead ions. The characterization of the Ch-B composite was clarified by FT-IR, SEM, and pzc studies. Factors ...
Application of kaolinite-based composite as an adsorbent for removal of uranyl ions from aqueous solution: kinetics and equilibrium study
(Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 2022)
Polyacrylamide (PAA)-kaolinite (K) composite adsorbent was synthesized using K and PAA hydrogel, in-situ polymerization method as synthesis method. Adsorbent performance of the PAA-K composite for UO22+ ions was optimized: ...
Leptin/Melanocortin pathway hormones in obese patients after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy
(VERDUCI PUBLISHERVIA GREGORIO VII, ROME 186-00165, ITALY, 2022)
Objective: The melanocortin system is an important neural system underlying the control of body weight and food intake. This system has recently received great attention as a potential target for obesity treatment. Therefore, ...
The relationship between serum prolidase activity and histone H3 protein levels and fibromyalgia
(VERDUCI PUBLISHERVIA GREGORIO VII, ROME 186-00165, ITALY, 2022)
OBJECTIVE: Fibromyalgia (FM) is a clinical syndrome characterized by prominent physical and psychological impairment and widespread pain on both sides of the body, above and below the waist, and along the axial skeleton. ...
