On the Suitability of Almond Shells for the Manufacture of a Natural Low-Cost Bioadsorbent to Remove Brilliant Green: Kinetics and Equilibrium Isotherms Study by R. Melhaoui, Y. Miyah, S. Kodad, N. Houmy, M. Addi, M. Abid, A. Mihamou, H. Serghini-Caid, S. Lairini, N. Tijani, C. Hano, A. Elamrani

“…Thus, almond coproducts such as almond shells that represent more than 70% of biomass remain underexplored. In this work, the suitability of almond shell powder (ASP) as a natural low-cost adsorbent was evaluated in the adsorption of brilliant green dye (BG), which is known as a chemical pollutant. …”

Preparation of coal kaolinite composites and study of adsorption properties by Rui LIU, Yuping FAN, Ruifeng GUO, Xianshu DONG, Xiaomin MA

“…The excellent spatial structure and exposed functional groups of modified kaolinite provided more active sites for adsorption, and the abundant amino and hydroxyl groups of chitosan could chelate and adsorb Pb(II), which synergistically promoted the adsorption performance of the composites higher than that of chitosan or kaolinite alone. …”
