Enhanced Adsorption of Mercury(II) Ions from Aqueous Solution by Carbon-Based Adsorbents Containing Cl-, S- and N-functional Groups by Jianzhong Zhu, Baolin Deng, John Yang

“…Batch experiments to study the kinetics and equilibrium of Hg 2+ ion adsorption were performed to evaluate the efficacy of the functionalized carbon adsorbents. Sample characterizations indicated that chlorine, sulphur or nitrogen functional groups were effectively immobilized onto the activated carbon surface, thereby generating more negative surface charges favouring cation adsorption. …”

An Innovative Green Dust Suppressant for Dry Climate Mining Areas in a Copper–Nickel Mine: Integration of Moisture Retention and Erosion Resistance by Zijun Li, Zhe Zhou, Yu Xu, Yin Chen

“…Mine ramps, serving as a critical transportation hub in underground mining activities, are beset by severe issues of dust pollution and secondary dust generation. While dust suppressants are more efficient than the commonly used sprinkling methods in mines, traditional single-function dust suppressants are inadequate for the complex application environment of mine ramps. …”
