Unexpected ultrafast and high adsorption capacity of oxygen vacancy-rich WO_x/C nanowire networks for aqueous Pb²⁺ and methylene blue removal

Abstract

Oxygen vacancy-rich WOx/C nanowire networks are fabricated by a one-pot and high yield solvothermal method, exhibiting ultrafast and high adsorption capacities.

Biochar efficiency in copper removal from Haplic soils

“…Different methods and technologies have been used to remove heavy metals from soils, ground water and sewages. Probably, the cheapest and the most effective methods are based on adsorption (sorption) processes occurring on the natural or synthetic adsorbents (Chen et al 2011;Gupta et al 2009;Zhang et al 2014Zhang et al , 2017Liu et al 2017a).…”

Controllable synthesis of coloured Ag0/AgCl with spectral analysis for photocatalysis

“…[1][2][3][4][5] In both the environmental and energy elds, the successful application of photocatalysts mainly relies on their light-response range, charge-carrier separation, and energy band location for redox reactions. [6][7][8][9][10] In particular, it should be noticed that the power source of photocatalysis comes from solar irradiation, with visible light taking up 50%. Therefore, it is a key challenge to acquire ultrahigh photon energy capture properties of photocatalysts, especially in the visible light region.…”

Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Modified Fe2O3/Molecular Sieves for Removal of Rhodamine B Dyes

“…ese materials have been established due to their properties such as high potential for removal and recovery of the effluent from wastewater, large surface area to volume ratio, reuse, and low cost. A number of researchers have used these materials as adsorbent [1,2] or photo catalyst [3] for removal of dyes and heavy metals.…”
