Design of retrofit flue gas (CO2) scrubber for dependable clean energy at the Duvha Coal Power Plant (Nature Research, 2024-10)The coal-fired power sector is facing unprecedented pressure due to the shift to low-carbon energy sources and the need to prevent climate change. It is imperative to incorporate advanced technologies into conventional ...
-
(Wiley, 2024-08)This study explored the fabrication of Polypyrrole (PPy) and Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) composites (PPy-GAC) for effective removal of toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) from aqueous solutions. Two synthesis methods ...
-
(Wiley, 2024-08)The textile industry comprises technologies that transform synthetic or natural fibers into yarn, cloth, and felt for manufacturing clothing, upholstery, and household linens. The major public health threat in tropical ...
-
(Elsevier, 2024-08-03)The critically ranked carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been observed to infect immunocompromised patients that consume polluted waters, leading to critical infections and more hospital costs. To save lives ...
-
(MDPI, 2024-12)This research achieved the successful synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) NPs through an eco-friendly method, utilizing the leaf extract of Leonotis ocymifolia (L.O.). This innovative approach not only highlights the potential ...
