Adsorption of chalcophile, siderophile, and lithophile elements from aqueous solutions using syngenetically modified biochar
(Journal of environmental engineering, 2021)This study evaluates the adsorption capacity of syngenetically modified lignin-derived biochar for chalcophile (zinc, Zn), siderophile (copper, Cu) and lithophile (manganese, Mn) ions in single- and multicomponent solutions. ... -
Air pollution with fine particles in closed parking and theoretical studies of the interaction of inhaled particles in respiratory tract
(Buildings: Special issue: Advances in the indoor environments and respiratory health, 2022)Indoor air quality must be considered important in regards to its possible harmful effects on the human body. Premises such as underground garages, covered car parks and other similar structures remain crucial in assessing ... -
Analysis and evaluation of the biogas purification technologies from h2s
(Mokslas – Lietuvos ateitis. Aplinkos inžinerija = Science – Future of Lithuania. Environmental engineering, 2023)H2S concentrations in biogas are limited by environmental regulations. Because these gases are toxic to human health, cause corrosion, and damage the combined heat and power (CHP) engines and other metallic parts after ... -
Application of Artificial Neural Network and Particle Swarm Optimization for modelling and optimization of biosorption of Lead(II) and Nickel(II) from wastewater using dead cyanobacterial biomass
(Journal of the Indian chemical society, 2021)Removal of heavy metals through biosorption using biomass offers several advantages over other conventional techniques such as low cost, high efficiency, environmentally friendly, etc. In the present article, biosorption ... -
Application of electronic waste cable sheathing as secondary use sound insulation
(ATHENA Research Book. Vol. 2, 2023)Cable is the main component of electronic equipment which leads to increasing amounts of hollow sheaths after the removal of cores: metals with insulation layers. The continuously growing dependence on technology makes it ... -
Application of pyrogenic carbonaceous product for immobilisation of potentially toxic elements in railway sleepers and polluted soil
(International journal of environmental science and technology, 2019)In the last decades, there is a growing concern about soils polluted with potentially toxic elements (PTE) and their negative impact on the ecosystems. In the recent year, biochar is intensively investigated not only for ... -
