1. OPTIMIZATION STUDIES OF PROCESS PARAMETERS FOR THE ADSORPTION OF COPPER AND ARSENIC IONS FROM SIMULATED WASTE WATER USING CHITOSAN AND CHITOSAN – ZEOLITE BEADS
ABSTRACT
This research presents the “Optimization Studies of Process Parameters for the Adsorption of Copper and Arsenic Ions from Simulated Waste Water using Chitosan and Chitosan – Zeolite Beads” which was achieved by developing adsorbents of chitosan and chitosan &n...
2. KINETICS AND OPTIMIZATION OF PHENOL UPTAKE FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION USING AGRICULTURAL WASTES
ABSTRACT The uptake of phenol from simulated aqueous solution using agricultural wastes as adsorbents is the focus of this research work. The agricultural wastes used were corn cob and rice husk which were modified with tetraoxophosphate V acid (H3PO4) and carbonized to give corn cob activated ca...
3. MODIFICATION OF STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES FOR ADVANCED FUNCTIONALITIES
SUMMARY
In industry, business, and homes worldwide, metal alloys called stainless steels are used extensively. Stainless steel is a generic term for a large family of iron-based alloys containing a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by weight. The primary alloying element, chromium, form...
4. REMOVAL OF HEAVY METALS FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION USING ACTIVATED CARBON PREPARED FROM AGRICULTURAL WASTES
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Human activities have led to immense pollution of our environment especially the water bodies. This is as a result of the discharge of inorganic effluents from industries directly into the environment without treatment due to the high cost of establishing or maintai...
