Coal is a complex geologic material composed mainly of organic matter and mineral matter,
the latter including minerals, poorly crystalline mineraloids, and elements associated with …

The material classed as “mineral matter” in coal embraces crystalline mineral materials as
well as a range of inorganic elements that occur in non-crystalline form. This review outlines …

Coal, one of the most complex geological materials, consists of organic and mineral matter,
the latter including crystalline minerals, non-crystalline mineraloids, and elements with non …

Soil pollution, influenced by both the natural and anthropogenic factors, significantly reduces
environmental quality. In this study, six hazardous elements (Cr, Ni, Cu, As, Cd and Pb) in 12 …

It is unclear how the properties of biochar control its ability to sorb metals. In this work,
physicochemical properties of a variety of biochars, made from four types of feedstock at …

Attempts to secure more energy, food, and infrastructure leave a trail of environmental
contamination and human health hazards. Coal is a fossil fuel and nonrenewable energy …

Morphological structures and adsorption properties of biochar/MgAl-LDH ultra-fine
composites prepared by liquid-phase deposition have been determined in laboratory. X-ray …

Exposure to dust from the mining environment has historically resulted in epidemic levels of
mortality and morbidity from pneumoconiotic diseases such as silicosis, coal workers' …

The use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for various applications is growing drastically. The
increase in use will eventually lead to their release into the environment. The tendency of …

The focus of this study is to critically review the physiochemical and engineering properties
of the fly ash and its applications in various fields. The utilization of fly ash has become a …
