Activated carbon fibers (ACF) are relatively novel and by far one of the most important
fibrous carbon materials owing to their special characteristics such as fibrous structure, high …

Discharged water from the oil and gas fields is a common type of wastewater called
produced water (PW). It consists of different combinations of salinities, oils, and mineral …

Oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion is one type of oily wastewater produced by many industries. The
treatment of and resource recovery from O/W emulsions are very challenging. Unlike bulk or …

Abstract A novel PPS@ ZIF-8 demulsifier was developed through grafting branched
polyether polysiloxane (PPS) molecules onto the ZIF-8 crystal. This demulsifier presented a …

Hybrid recycled cellulose-silica (HRCSs) aerogels were successfully synthesized using
three-dimensional cellular skeletons, Kymene cross-linker, and methyltrimethoxysilane …

Chemically and physically activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were produced using PAN
(polyacrylonitrile) fibers and their properties were compared with commercial samples …

This paper studies the removal of ethyl naphthalene as one of the polyaromatic hydrocarbon
pollutants (PAHs) from the produced water. Magnetic super hydrophobic monolithic core …

We report a mesoporous hafnium oxide (MHO) ceramic synthesized via a sol–gel process
that has exhibited 99.9% removal capacity of crude oil from an oil-in-water emulsion at a …

Cut flowers and floral waste (CFW) is a major concern in the present era. This study
emphasizes the reuse of cut flowers as a neat bioadsorbent and activated carbon (AC). The …

Herein, a walnut shell as a biosorbent was applied to remove petroleum compounds from
the water medium. The characterization analyses of the walnut shells showed the macro …
