Metal ions adsorption affinity of clayey materials from the North West Province of South Africa

Fosso-Kankeu, E.; Waanders, F. (CUMTP, 2014)

Local clays that are abundant in the periphery of Potchefstroom in South Africa were characterized and investigated as potential sorbents for the removal of metal ions from effluents. The clay samples mostly contained ...
Response of bacterial biosorbents to chemical treatment as influenced by cell membrane structure and impact on the adsorption behaviour of dyes

Simelane, Lwandle P.; Fosso-Kankeu, Elvis; Njobeh, Patrick; Pandey, Sadanand (Current Science Association, 2018)

The impact of cell membrane structure and adsorption capacity of dyes due to chemical treatment on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria was studied. The adsorption was found to occur through a chemisorption mechanism. ...
