    • Adsorptive removal of heavy metal from electroplating effluents by Agro-industrial waste adsorbent 

      Naimah, Ibrahim; Azlinda, Abdul Ghani; Masitah, Hassan; Salwa, Mohd Zaini Makhtar; Ragunathan, Santiagoo (Malaysian Institute of Chemistry, 2007-08-23)
      Cr (VI) is toxic and, in the absence of proof to the contrary, is considered carcinogenic. Of concern are its prevalence in various industrial effluents, namely electroplating, textile dyeing, leather tanning, wood treatment, ...

    • Dye Removal from Aqueous Solution Using Egg Shell Powder 

      Azlinda, Abdul Ghani; Ragunathan, Santiagoo; Anbu Johnson, Dr.; Naimah, Ibrahim; Salsuwanda, Selamat (Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2007-06-09)
      Dyes and pigments have been used in many industries for colouration purpose. Textile industry is one of the prominent polluters releasing high concentrated effluent into the surrounding environment. Dyes contain carcinogenic ...

    • The effect of environmental treatment fiber on properties of palm fiber reinforced polyester composites 

      A. H. N., Izza; Salmah@Selamah, Haji Ayob, Prof. Madya; Ragunathan, Santiagoo; Abdul Haqi, Ibrahim (Universiti Malaysia Pahang, 2009-06-20)
      Mechanical properties of a palm fiber reinforced composite depend not only on its constituents but also on the interfacial adhesion. Palm fibers were treated with seawater in order to find out its influence of this ...

    • Effect of pretreated zeolite media in removal of landfill leachate pollutants 

      Ragunathan, Santiagoo; Naimah, Ibrahim; Azlinda, Abdul Ghani; Nurul Izza, Abd Hamid (Malaysia Institute of Chemistry, 2007-08-23)
      Leachate pollutant in the form of amnonical nitrogen (NH4-N) and chemical oxygen demands (COD) is becoming more important to avoid problems to aquatic as well as human life. This study investigates the removal of such ...

    • Kinetic Studies of Heavy Metal Ion Sorption by Modified Oil Palm Waste Material 

      Naimah, Ibrahim; Azlinda, Abdul Ghani; Ragunathan, Santiagoo; Umi Fazara, Md. Ali; Nazerry Rosmady, Rahmat (Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2007-06-09)
      Activated carbon adsorption has long been of beneficial use for numerous industries in order to achieve standard effluent discharge parameters. Owing to its high cost and difficult procurement of activated carbon, efforts ...
