OverviewThe world’s activated carbon market volume has increased rapidly in recent years due to environmental regulations. It is being used in a variety of fields including water treatment, air purification, and food processing. This volume in the Green Chemical Innovations and Sustainability Series studies the physical, biological, and chemical modification of activated carbon to enhance the adsorption performance. Recent experimental results indicating improved adsorption capacity are presented as well as novel applications using activated carbon. The authors focus on identifying potential precursors from agricultural waste, municipal waste, and industrial waste and investigate toxic pollutants. Demonstrates how researchers can produce synthetic adsorbents (activated carbon) via agricultural waste, industrial waste, and household waste Describes the actions of adsorption capacity or percentage removal with respect to factors affecting the adsorption process Investigates activated carbon's removal efficiency of dyes, organic compounds, pharmaceutically active compounds, heavy metals, pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, antibiotics, and other toxic pollutants Discusses the search for low-cost adsorbents that can be produced by using agricultural wastes, industrial wastes, and natural materials.

He received his Ph.D. in Materials Chemistry at University Putra Malaysia in 2010. He had worked for more than 15 years as lecturer, researcher, examination panel member, examination moderator and conference committee for university. At INTI International University, he has taught a variety of chemistry courses such as physical chemistry, organic chemistry, general chemistry, chemistry & society, and methods & skills in research for undergraduate courses. Currently, he is member of Institute of Materials Malaysia, Malaysian Institute of Chemistry, Malaysian Analytical Sciences Society, Malaysian Solid-State Science & Technology Society, Researchers Society of Chemical Sciences, Scientific and Technical Research Association, Asian Chemical Society, Asian Council of Science Editors and World Researchers Associations. As an active researcher in university, his research areas include renewable energy, solar energy, chalcogenide metals, activated carbon, wastewater treatment, biomaterials, green chemistry, semiconductors, nano materials, and thin film materials. He has published more than 200 papers in Scopus/WoS/international referred journals, 48 book chapters and 4 books. His research has been widely recognized and successfully received several local and international awards. Lastly, Prof Ho has been appointed as a journal reviewer (reviewed more than 750 papers), journal editor (40 journals), editorial board member (85 journals), chief guest editor and thesis external examiner (25 universities). Heri Septya Kusuma was born in Bojonegoro, East Java, Indonesia. He received his Bachelor of Science degree from the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science and Technology, Airlangga University. Heri Septya Kusuma earned his Masters in Engineering from the Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Industrial Technology, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember, and earned his Doctoral degree at the same place. Currently he is a lecturer at the Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Industrial Technology, Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” Yogyakarta, Indonesia. In addition, he is also an Editor and Reviewer in various reputable international journals and accredited national (Indonesian) journals. He has published more than 100 articles in several reputable international journals and several book chapters. Yogesh Chandra Sharma, Professor HAG at Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology BHU Varanasi, India graduated from Department of Applied Chemistry from the same Institute (1991) and completed Doctor of Science (D.Sc.) in 2010. His research interests are Green Energy, Green Hydrogen Production, Biodiesel Synthesis, Valorisation of Biodiesel by-products, and River Health Science. He carried out pioneer work on synthesis and characterization of heterogeneous catalysts for production of biodiesl using first, second, third and fourth generation feedstock materials. He designed and fabricated a vertically aligned photobioreactor for cultivation of microalgae for biodiesel production. He used waste materials for producing heterogeneous catalysts. He has also worked on synthesis of bi- and multi-metallic heterogeneous catalysts. The heterogeneous catalysts produced by his group were finally used for biodiesel and green hydrogen production. He was pioneer in conceptualising Nanoadsorbents globally which came up strongly as a exotic material, especially for water purification. Prof. Sharma has done significant work on synthesis of adsorbents from waste materials, minerals, biomaterials, etc. for removal of heavy and toxic metals, dyes, fluorides and nitrates and phosphates from waste water. He used the technology for drinking water treatment also. He has several fruitful national and international collaborations on topics of societal importance. Prof. Sharma is a highly cited author. He has published more than 200 research articles, 20 review articles and several book chapters. He has authored and edited five books on various topics. Prof. Sharma has above 16700 citations and an h index of 69 and i10 173. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
