Researchers have created a ZIF-8/chitosan/ZnO nanocomposite that adsorbs up to 490 milligrams of azo dye per gram and then ...

Ceramic adsorbents offer a sustainable and cost-effective approach to water treatment, particularly for reducing water hardness. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of natural zeolite and ...

Activated carbon derived from waste pomegranate peels was investigated for the removal of amoxicillin (AMX) from aqueous solutions. The prepared adsorbent exhibited a high BET surface area (1307 m²/g) ...

Researchers at Henan University used machine learning models, led by CatBoost, to predict and validate cadmium adsorption on biochar with over 94 percent accuracy, identifying pore size and H/C ratio ...

Macromolecules in diverse phases can adsorb onto natural systems, composite materials, and thin-film devices. In a new report now published in Science Advances, Yuma Morimitsu and a research team in ...

To combat water scarcity, producing water from unconventional sources is strategically important. One promising approach is atmospheric water harvesting, a technology proposed in recent years to ...

Like someone who finally sits after a long, tiring day of standing, gas-phase molecules breathe a sigh of relief, so to speak, as they “take a seat” (adsorb) on solid surfaces. The sigh comes in the ...

Researchers found that selective deashing of Taixi anthracite alters the residual mineral profile prior to KOH activation, ...

Applications of adsorption of small drug particles at the surface of large excipients were introduced, and different factors affecting adsorption process were discussed and summarized. Several ...

A research team has made a breakthrough in surface science by introducing a new active mechanism of adsorption. Such adsorption-based phenomena, in which molecules are attracted onto a solid surface, ...

The attachment of molecules to the surface of a solid by adsorption is a broad subject. This chapter is focused on the adsorption of gases in high-capacity solid adsorbents such as active carbon [1] ...
