Selective adsorption of heavy and light metals by natural zeolites
(PSRC, 2014)
Recent studies have shown that zeolite can be applied through an ion-exchange process to remove metals from solutions. In this paper the potential of two zeolites to perform as sorbents for treatment of multi-metal system ...
Adsorption potential of bentonite and attapulgite clays applied for the desalination of sea water
(PSRC, 2014)
A possible new process for the partial desalination of
seawater is to use bentonite clay or attapulgite as an adsorbent. The
ion exchange property of these clays, which is a result of the
characteristic t-o-t layer ...
Bentonitc clay adsorption affinity for anionic and cationic dyes
(PSRC, 2014)
The incidence of dye pollution in South Africa is quite alarming, requesting effective and affordable techniques to curb further degradation of the limited water resource. Adsorption is an attractive technique due to a ...
Comparative adaptation of B. subtilis and P. aeruginosa in diesel supplemented medium and impact on biodegradation potential
(PSRC, 2014)
The degree of diesel blending is likely to influence its toxicity as well as the susceptibility and speed of biodegradation. It is therefore imperative to identify strains that can degrade diesel blend in record time, such ...
