This paper introduces a confinement approach to enhance solid-state hydrogen storage by
designing a nano-tubular and nano-fibrous structured boron-based storage medium. We …

Local clay mineral from Khulais area, was activated at different acid to clay mineral ratios (in
mass) at 90° C. The local clay mineral contained a major phase of smectite, in addition to …

The aim of this study is to investigate the oxalic acid activation of bentonites containing
different types of smectites, analyse their surface modification as a function of acid …

In this investigation, the parent clay mineral montmorillonite (Mnt) was acid activated using
sulfuric acid (H2SO4) at a specific mass of acid to clay mineral of 0.2 (A-Mnt) prior to the …

The increase in population have had a negative impact on the water quality environment
despite the strong polices implemented on the wastewater treatment as the problem remains …

Used lubricating oil (ULO) is considered hazardous as it is able to cause pollution and affect
the environment. The presence of degraded additives, contaminants, and by-products of …

Many types of agricultural wastes are now being studied for waste water treatment because
of their adsorbing properties. For instance, banana peels are capable of adsorbing various …

Locally sourced acid modified clay was used as an adsorbent for the removal of Cd (II) and
Ni (II) ions from textile wastewater. The adsorption of Cd (II) and Ni (II) was performed using …

We have successfully achieved the synthesis of 2, 4, 5-trisubstituted imidazole by a three pot
multicomponent reaction of benzil, aromatic benzaldehydes and ammonium acetate in …

Fuller earth (FE) nanoclay is a naturally occurring mineral with a high surface area, is highly
abundant, and has a low purchasing cost, making it an excellent candidate for …
