One route of exposure to SPAs is through bottled water since the polymers used to make plastic bottles contain these SPAs, which migrate from the plastic to the water. Solid-phase extraction (SPE), HPLC-MS, FTIR, and DSC are used to identify and quantify...

Chemically modified bioadsorbents were prepared using sawdust (Aspidosperma polyneuron) functionalized with urea at different concentrations (BC-1M, BC-3M, and BC-6M) to evaluate their adsorption capacity by the methylene blue method. Fourier transform s...

Surface modification can improve the adsorption capacity of biochar. Biochar was produced from corn stalks (Zea mays) by pyrolysis at 520 °C, activated with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) using impregnation ratios of biomass weight: volume 1:2 (B 1:2) and 1:3 (B ...
