Applications of Sesame Residues as Sorbents for Oil Removal from Produced Water
Abstract: Large amounts of produced water are produced in tandem with the production of crude oil. Both dissolved and dispersed oil are present in produced water, which can contaminate the environment and pose health risks to people. In this study, the oil component, cadmium, and lead ions were extracted from the generated water using sesame residues and agricultural wastes. The sesame residues were dried, size-reduced, and ground. Standard techniques were used …

Lead (II) Ion Biosorption from Aqueous Solution ontoHexadecyltriammonium Bromide (HDTMA-Br) Modified Dry Water Hyacinth
Abstract: Heavy metal release into the environment by industrial activities has become a persistent problem,with these contaminants continually increasing in concentration. Heavy metals not only circulatethrough ecosystems but also accumulate in organisms over time, which elevates their toxic effectsalong the food chain. This research was conducted to explore the efficiency of biosorption inremoving lead (II) ions from aqueous solutions using water hyacinth powder modified withhexadecyltriammonium bromide (HDTMA-Br), a cationic surfactant. The …

Study of Heavy Metal ion adsorption from Synthetic Wastewater with the help of biomass and analysis of Mathematical Model
Abstract: The biofilm matrix is a mixture of secreted polymers, metabolites and nutrients ingested, lysis solution products, and even particle debris. This matrix, which is polyanionic by nature, is essential for the activated carbon of metal cations. In this study, the heavy metal adsorption mechanism in biofilms is modelled in one spatial dimension. The numerical method is a free-boundary value issue for nonlinear parabolic and quadratic partial differential equations. Parabolic equations …
