    • Carbon dioxide capture from flue gases using dry sorbents 

      Jacobs, André (North-West University (South Africa)., 2021)
      The project entails capturing CO2 produced from industrial flue gases with dry adsorbents through gas adsorption to mitigate the CO2 emissions. Four commercially available activated carbon samples (CQ006, CQ30P, CQ650 and ...
    • Remediation of AMD through bentonitic clay adsorption 

      Dannhauser, Hennus Petrus (North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)
      The discharge of acid mine drainage (AMD) from several abandoned mines in South-Africa has become a serious concern and environmental hazard. Since 2002 AMD has been decanting from the Number 8 shaft of the abandoned Harmony ...
    • Wastewater remediation using municipal solid waste-derived hydrochar 

      Dewah, ChristineTambudzai (North-West University (South Africa)., 2023)
      Industrialisation and population growth increase solid waste generation and the release of toxic pollutants into the environment. Therefore, novel approaches are necessary for both wastewater remediation and solid waste ...
    • Zeolite facilitated adsorption of selected metals associated with mine drainage 

      Dekker, Leandri (North-West University (South Africa)., 2022)
      South Africa (SA) is a water scarce country, with 34 % of SA’s total population living in rural areas with very limited access to safe surface and groundwater sources. The pollution of these water sources is caused by many ...
