Synthesis and surface characteristics of nanosilica produced from alkali-extracted rice husk ash
Tzong-Horng Liou,Chun-Chen Yang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used rice husk as a raw material to prepare nanosilica without adding an extra surfactant and found that the surface characteristics of the sample depend mainly upon gelation pH.
H3PO4-activated carbons produced from açai stones and Brazil nut shells: removal of basic blue 26 dye from aqueous solutions by adsorption
Thielle Nayara Vieira de Souza,Melissa Gurgel Adeodato Vieira,Meuris Gurgel Carlos da Silva,Davi do Socorro Barros Brasil,Samira Maria Leão de Carvalho +4 more
TL;DR: The açai stones and Brazil nut shells-based ACs were shown to be effective adsorbents for removal of BB26 from aqueous solutions, and the adsorption processes were found to be favorable, exothermic, and spontaneous.

Optimisation of biodiesel production by sunflower oil transesterification
TL;DR: In this work, sunflower methyl esters were characterised to test their properties as fuels in diesel engines, such as viscosity, flash point, cold filter plugging point and acid value, and showed that biodiesel obtained under the optimum conditions is an excellent substitute for fossil fuels.
