Study on the Significance of Water Treatment Using Activated Carbon from Palm Bunch Fiber
Abstract: Activated carbon produced from palm bunch fibers was investigated for water treatment with the aim to improve water quality for industrial consumption and not for humans and animal consumption. Dominantly the activated carbon produced from palm bunch fiber was used for treatment of industrial effluent water and the application is environmental friendly. The high alkali concentration in the activated carbon improved the pH level of the treated water from 4.03 …

NANOTECHNOLOGY- A TINY POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE GLOBAL WATER CRISIS?
Abstract: The rapidly increasing population, depleting water resources, and climate change have resulted in prolonged droughts and floods. This has rendered drinking water a competitive resource in many parts of the world. The development of cost-effective and stable materials and methods for providing fresh water in adequate amounts is the need for today’s world. Traditional water/wastewater treatment technologies remain ineffective for providing adequate safe water due to increasing demand of water …
