Adsorption of norfloxacin from aqueous solution on biochar derived from spent coffee ground: Master variables and response surface method optimized adsorption process

Van-Truc Nguyen et al.

Summary: In this study, biochar derived from spent coffee grounds showed effective adsorption of norfloxacin in water, with optimal conditions identified as pH 6.26, norfloxacin concentration 24.69 mg L-1, and biochar dosage 1.32 g L-1. The norfloxacin adsorption capacity of spent coffee grounds biochar was found to be 2-30 times higher compared to biochars derived from other agricultural products. This indicates that spent coffee grounds biochar could be a promising eco-friendly solution for removing emerging pollutants like antibiotics.

Solubility and spinnability of cellulose-lignin blends in aqueous NMMO

R. Protz et al.

Summary: This study investigated the direct dissolution and joint spinning of cellulose and lignin from NMMO-water, showing that lignin can dissolve in a range from 30% NMMO to 70% NMMO. Dry-jet wet spinning was achieved for cellulose-lignin compound up to 50% lignin loading, with lignin mainly acting as a filler in the core region of the fiber. The spinnability decreases with increasing lignin content.
