Sustainable heavy metal remediation in industrial effluents using aluminum oxide nanoparticles-sawdust composite adsorbent Department:Industrial Chemistry By: prosper Project ID: 8158 Rating: (5.0) votes: 1 Price:₦4000 Get the Complete MaterialAbstractThis project investigates the efficacy of Aluminum oxide nanoparticles-sawdust composite adsorbent for the sustainable remediation of heavy metals in industrial effluents. The composite adsorbent is synthesized by integrating aluminum oxide nanoparticles with sawdust, a biowaste material, to leverage the high surface area and catalytic properties of the nanoparticles alongside the abundant, renewable nature of sawdust. The study employs AAS and FTIR Spectroscopy in the characterization of the effluent to determine the effectiveness of the adsorbent. Batch adsorption experiments are conducted to evaluate the removal efficiency of iron from wastewater solutions. Results demonstrate that the aluminum oxide nanoparticles-sawdust composite exhibits superior heavy metal uptake compared to individual components and conventional adsorbents, highlighting its potential as a highly effective, sustainable solution for industrial effluent treatment. The findings suggest that this composite adsorbent not only enhances heavy metal removal but also offers a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative for wastewater management in industrial settings. ...Preview Download Preview +Other Industrial Chemistry project topics and materials you might be interested in»Assessment of the phytochemical constituents and proximate composition of African pear»Assessment of potassium bromate in bread produced from Aba metropolis»Extraction of phenolic content, antioxidant, antibacterial activities, and TLC analysis of Basil (Basil Ocimum Basilicum), Thyme (Thymus Vulgaris) and Parsely (Petroselinum Crispum)»Extraction, total phenolic content, antioxidant, antibacterial activities and tlc analysis of basil (Ocimum Basilicum), thyme (Thymus Vulgaris), parsely (Petroselinum Crispum)»Synthesis of heterogenous catalyst from clay»Synthesis and study of alkali on foam stability of citrus lemon leaves surfactant for hydrocarbon recovery»Corrosion inhibition of clean and unclean mild steel in 1.5m and 2.0m hydrochloric acid using Aloe Barbadensis miller (Aloe Vera) extract»Sustainable heavy metal remediation in industrial effluents using aluminum oxide nanoparticles-sawdust composite adsorbent
