Pb (II) adsorption from aqueous solution by nutshells, green adsorbent: Adsorption studies, regeneration studies, scale-up design, its effect on biological indicator and MLR modeling.

In this paper, agricultural waste nutshells, such as walnut and almond shell, were utilized to treat Pb(II) containing aqueous solution. Lead(II) is a typical poisonous, commercial, water-pollutant, having multiple awful effects on the environment. The effluent of the different industrial wastewater cans is treated by using leftover and excess green waste. This finding is focused […]

Sustainable approach to almond skin mediated synthesis of tunable selenium microstructures for coating cotton fabric to impart specific antibacterial activity.

Currently, the synthesis of nanostructured inorganic materials with tunable morphology is still a great challenge. In this study, almond skin extract was employed for the biogenic synthesis of selenium nanoparticles with tunable morphologies such as rods and brooms. The effects of various synthesis parameters on morphologies were investigated using UV-Visible spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy […]

Porous β-Mo2C Nanoparticle Clusters Supported on Walnut Shell Powders Derived Carbon Matrix for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction.

Herein, we choose the waste walnut shell as the carbon source, and ammonium heptamolybdate as the molybdenum source to prepare the β-Mo2C catalyst supported on carbon matrix (Mo2C@C) by the calcination method for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The open pores in the porous Mo2C nanoparticle clusters can facilitate electrolyte permeation and hydrogen molecules release as […]
