Landfill leachate treatment using activated carbon obtained from coffee waste
(Associação Brasileira de Engenharia Sanitária e Ambiental, 2018)
A set of experiments were carried out in order to establish and evaluate the potential of activated carbon, produced from coffee waste in adsorption process, in the depuration of landfill leachate. Different reagents ...

Immobilization of heavy metals (Cd, Ni or Pb) using aluminate geopolymers
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
In the present study, a waste aluminate solution from the anodizing industry was used to synthesize coal fly ash- and blast furnace slag-based geopolymers as metal-immobilizing matrixes. Different alkali-activating agents ...

A porous geopolymer based on aluminum-waste with acoustic properties
(Elsevier, 2019-07)
Paval, a solid waste stream from the aluminum industry, is used as a pore generation agent in geopolymers. Paval was mixed with coal combustion fly ash, as a geopolymeric precursor, and activated with alkaline solution ...

Properties of fly ash and metakaolín based geopolymer panels under fire resistance tests
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), 2015)
This paper presents the results of a study about the effect of fire on geopolymer paste composed of fly ashes, metakaolin and sodium silicate. 2 cm thick, 28 cm high and 18 cm wide panels were filled with the paste obtained. ...

Landfill leachate treatment using combined fish scales based activated carbon and solar advanced oxidation processes
(Elsevier, 2019-03)
The depuration of landfill leachate (LL) was evaluated by solar advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) (photo-Fenton + O3 and photo-Fenton + O2) and adsorption processes, using activated carbon made from fish scales, as either ...

Ammonium Ion Adsorption and Settleability Improvement Achieved in a Synthetic Zeolite-Amended Activated Sludge
(Elsevier, 2013-09)
Municipal wastewater treatment plants typically exhibit two classic problems: high ammonium concentration in water after conventional biological treatment and, in some cases, poor activated sludge sediment ability. Potential ...
