Biogas recovery from animal waste could be the key to unlocking the financial and environmental benefits of managing manure produced by livestock operations as well as organic waste from food processing sectors. There is no doubt that in the near future, the world’s energy supply...
Dyeing is one of the vital processes in the textile chemical processing industries. There are many useful commercial dyes available for the coloration of textile fiber substrates. Accordingly, cotton material is dyed mostly by reactive, sulphur and vat dyes due to their efficient...
Aim: Refinery wastes have been regarded as a consortium of majorly organic pollutants and improper management metamorphose to the distortion of human and environmental domains. In this study, the efficiency of hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (HDTMAC)-modified Ogwuta kaolinite...
Seashells and other waste shells are gaining attention as a cost—effective, sustainable, renewable alternative source of CaCO3 for CO2 adsorption. Consequently, this study evaluated the performance of periwinkle shell as a potential adsorbent for CO2 capture. The periwinkle shell...
Present study describes a rapid and eco-friendly synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Coffea arabica leaf extract in single process via green Chemistry. We have successfully synthesized AgNPs using Coffea arabica leaf as a reductant and a capping or stabilizing agent t...
In this research, effort to convert waste to wealth was explicated in the usage of agro waste materials of regenerative resource, almond endocarp (Terminalia catappa) and tamarind seeds (Dialium guineense), as precursors for activated carbon production through thermal and chemica...
Beeswax is a lipid component obtained from the dregs of cooked honey and then filtered to obtain wax. The advantages of beeswax as a raw material for edible film are that it is classified as food grade, available throughout the year, use is still limited, price is relatively chea...
The quality of welds is greatly influenced by the weld bead geometry and mechanical-metallurgical properties of the welded joint which have a direct relationship with the type of welding process being used and its input process parameters such as welding current, gas flow rate, a...
Groundnut shells were milled to 100 microns and bioethanol was produced using acid hydrolysis and batch fermentation process. Acid hydrolysis was achieved using 5% sulphuric acid solution at 900C for 2 hours. Fermentation was proceeded after sterilization of wort in an autoclave...
Phenol–formaldehyde (PF) adhesive was successfully modified using lignin from palm fruit empty bunches and gluten from wheat four. The polymerization reaction was carried out under basic medium. 90% substitution of the phenol component of the Phenol–formaldehyde adhesives was ach...
