Simultaneous effect of multi-walled carbon nanotube and Span85 on the extraction of Ibuprofen from aqueous solution using emulsion liquid membrane

Carbon-Supported Nanocomposite Synthesis, Characterization, and Application as an Efficient Adsorbent for Ciprofloxacin and Amoxicillin

“…These and other properties of nanoparticles can be enhanced/improved by synthesizing the nanocomposites to obtain raised adsorption capacities. 20,29 Therefore, nanocomposites are growing rapidly due to their outstanding photocatalytic efficacy, ease of availability, long-term stability, and nontoxicity. Thus, nanocomposites have been considered for numerous applications such as in imaging, in biomedical devices including nanomedicines, and in heterogeneous catalysis.…”

“…Even though these medications have relatively low concentrations in water, their ongoing presence poses significant threats to the aquatic ecosystem and its microbes because of their cumulative effects . Some common secondary effects in human beings are diarrhea, stomach discomfort, feeling ill, etc. − The most serious problem with antibiotic discharge into the environment is antibiotic resistance, which leads to failure in the therapeutic capability against infections in humans and animals.…”

“…Adsorption is a simple, efficient, less inexpensive, and less toxic method to remove pharmaceuticals (antibiotics) from water. , Different adsorbents can be used to fulfill this purpose including black cumin seeds (BCs), activated carbons (ACs), graphene natural clay compounds like bentonite, ion exchange materials, etc. , Out of these, adsorbents with nanoscale dimensions have gained attention due to their unique properties like greater chemical and mechanical stability, high enrichment and adsorption capacity, fast adsorption, etc. These and other properties of nanoparticles can be enhanced/improved by synthesizing the nanocomposites to obtain raised adsorption capacities. , Therefore, nanocomposites are growing rapidly due to their outstanding photocatalytic efficacy, ease of availability, long-term stability, and nontoxicity. Thus, nanocomposites have been considered for numerous applications such as in imaging, in biomedical devices including nanomedicines, and in heterogeneous catalysis. , …”

Optimization and Prediction of Stability of Emulsified Liquid Membrane (ELM): Artificial Neural Network

“…Various beneficial organic and inorganic components have been extracted and recovered from aqueous solutions via the application of various extraction techniques in recent years [20], which are solid phase extraction (SPE), liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and membrane extraction (ME) [3,21].…”

“…In addition to the recovery of rare earth (RE) and precious metals [26,[32][33][34][35][36][37]. Other pollutants, which are hazardous to the environment, have been successfully extracted by ELM, such as phenols and chlorophenols [38][39][40], dyes [41][42][43][44][45][46], and pharmaceutical compounds [21,[47][48][49][50] ELMs are double emulsions; they are either water/oil/water (W/O/W) or oil/water/oil (O/W/O) systems [51]. First, an ELM for the W 1 /O/W 2 system is produced by combining two immiscible phases and then dispersing the resultant emulsion (W 1 /O) in a batch reactor comprising an external phase [22].…”
