The dust of woody plants Malus domestica and Prunus persica was activated by chemicals means. The surface was characterized by BET surface area, FTIR, Scanning electron micrograph, Energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis. Adsorption of some basic dyes on each sample was studied by kinetics and batch adsorption techniques at different adsorption temperatures. The residual concentration of the dye was determined by using UV-vis spectrophotometric technique. The removal of dyes from wastewater was studied with respect to initial dye concentrations, equilibration time and different dye...

Acacia modesta wood have been collected from mountain of (Ramora) Dir lower Khyber Pakhtukhwa Pakistan and then converted into activated carbon. The sample was activated chemically. The sample was characterized by BET surface area, scanning electron microscopy, FTIR and energy dispersive spectroscopy techniques. Adsorption of some dyes (basic green 5 and Methylen blue) are studied on treated and raw sample of Acacia modesta carbon powder by kinetics and batch adsorption technique at different temperatures. Intraparticle diffusion, Elovich and Bhangam models were used for analysis adsorption...

The eucalyptus lenceolata wood was collected and converted into carbon. The carbon was then characterized by BET surface area, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FTIR and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) techniques. Adsorption of some dyes (basic green 5 and Methylen blue) were studied on the treated and raw sample of carbon powder by kinetics adsorption at different adsorption temperatures. Linear models were used for analysis adsorption kinetics studies. From adsorption kinetic data the thermodynamic parameters were calculated for finding the adsorption mechanism. The results show that...

Saw dust is a byproduct of carpentry and saw mill industries and is available in abundance. In this study Saw dust of Morus alba was used for the Adsorptive removal of metal ions from aqueous solution onto low cost biosorbent with respect to adsorption kinetics and isotherm. The adsorption of heavy metals was carried out as a function of shaking time, concentration of adsorbate and adsorption temperatures. In the initial fifteen minutes the adsorption was rapid and then it slows down due to the diffusion of metals ions in the porous texture of biosorbent and then reached to plateau....

Allium sativum Zingiber officinale and carullama edulus were collected from market of Alladand Dehri Distric Malakand, Pakistan and investigated for mineral profile. Iron was noted as 2.23, 3.26 and 8.69mg/L respectively. Similarly Copper 0.19, 0.27 and 0.16mg/L, Zinc 2.40, 2.67 and 1.68 mg/L, Cadmium in Zingiber officinale was 0.04mg/L while in Zingiber officinale and caralluma edulis was not present, Lead in Allium sativum and Zingiber officinale was found in the range of 0.05 and 0.07mg/L and in caralluma edulis it was not detected, Manganese was found as: 0.72, 13.83 and 2.68 mg/L,...
