Sustainable solutions for environmental restoration are crucial due to the increasing release of toxic substances in the ecosystem. The adsorption capacity to remove acridine red from an aqueous solution was investigated using the hydrochar of the spent mushroom substrate, which was obtained by the process of hydrothermal carbonization at a m...

 Recycled rubber powder (PRR) is used as a filler and modifier for various elastomeric materials. Recycled rubbers include reclaimed rubber, ground rubber, or reprocessed synthetic rubber, by means any rubber waste that has been converted to an economically useful form. Composites based on elastomers and recycled rubber powder is a serious cha...

 This study aims to dope silver (Ag) and fluorine (F) in zinc oxide (ZnO) for the improvement of photoresponse properties in ZnO since previous reports confirmed improvement of these properties using individual doping of F and Ag. The F-doped ZnO (FZO) and F and Ag co-doped ZnO (FAZO) nanorods were synthesized using a modified hydrothermal met...

 The toxicity of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is well recognized, and its use is highly regulated in EU countries, including restrictions under frameworks like the REACH regulation in the EU. In Republika Srpska, the use of Cr(VI) is also limited by current legal regulations, ensuring strict control over its use and discharge. Under REACH, hex...
