Facile synthesis and characterization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes decorated with hydroxyapatite from cattle horns for adsorptive removal of fluoride
(Heliyon Open access, 2023-03-08)
Developing a new adsorbent for fluoride removal from cattle horn waste materials by a facile chemical method has shown great potential for fluoride removal. This paper reports the synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes ...
Environmental levels and human body burdens of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances in Africa: a critical review
(Elsevier : Science of The Total Environment., 2020-10-15)
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are known organic pollutants with adverse health effects on humans and the ecosystem. This paper synthesises literature about the status of the pollutants and their precursors, ...
Performance of Egg-Shell and Fish-Scale as Adsorbent Materials for Chromium (VI) Removal from Effluents of Tannery Industries in Eastern Uganda
(Open Access Library Journal, 2017-08-16)
The performance of egg-shells and fish-scales biomaterials in separating
chromium (VI) ions from tannery effluents obtained from tannery industries
