Biodegradable behaviour of waste wool and their recycled polyster preforms in aqueous and soil conditions

Author: Muniyasamy, Sudhakar ; Patnaik, Asis Date: Jan 2021 Present study deals with the biodegradable behavior of individual components and their preforms of nonwoven biocomposites developed from waste wool fibers including coring wool (CW), dorper wool (DW) and recycled polyester fibers (RPET). A ... Read more
Effective removal of cationic dyes from aqueous solution using gum ghatti-based biodegradable hydrogel

Author: Mittal, H ; Maity, Arjun ; Ray, SS Date: Aug 2015 Biodegradable hydrogels of gum ghatti (Gg) with a co-polymer mixture of acrylamide (AAm) and methacrylic acid (MAA) (termed as Gg-cl-P(AAm-co-MAA)) were synthesised by microwave-assisted free radical graft co-polymerisation technique. The ... Read more
Enhancement of biogas production via co-digestion of wastewater treatment sewage sludge and brewery spent grain: Physicochemical characterization and microbial community

Author: Mudzanani, Khuthadzo ; Van Heerden, E ; Mbhele, Nkhangweleni R ; Daramola, MO Date: Jul 2021 The present study intends to evaluate a synergy towards enhanced biogas production by co-digesting municipal sewage sludge (SS) with brewery spent grain (BSG). To execute this, physicochemical and metagenomics analysis was conducted on the ... Read more
Flocculation and adsorption properties of biodegradable gum-ghatti-grafted poly(acrylamide-co-methacrylic acid) hydrogels

Author: Mittal, H ; Jindal, R ; Kaith, BS ; Maity, Arjun ; Ray, SS Date: Jan 2015 This study reports the microwave-assisted synthesis of gum-ghatti (Gg)-grafted poly(acrylamide-co-methacrylic acid) (AAm-co-MAA) hydrogels for the development of biodegradable flocculants and adsorbents. The synthesized hydrogels were ... Read more
Gum ghatti and poly(acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) based biodegradable hydrogel-evaluation of the flocculation and adsorption properties

Author: Mittal, H ; Maity, Arjun ; Ray, SS Date: Oct 2015 The main aim of this study was to develop a biodegradable flocculent and adsorbent based on the graft co-polymer of the Gum ghatti (Gg) with the co-polymer mixture of acrylamide (AAM) and acrylic acid (AA) using the microwave assisted graft ...
