“Identification and Quantification of Carbohydrates, Amino Acids, and Protein in Gazo (Oak Manna)”
Assistant Professor Dr. Sewara J. Mohammed, a lecturer and researcher in the Department of Medical Laboratory in the college of Health Sciences, Cihan-University-Sulaimaniya, and Assistant Lecturer Darya Shorsh Hamad, a lecturer at the Department of Microbiology at the same College, have published a review article in the Journal of Desalination and Water Treatment. This review article explored various low-cost, sustainable adsorbents for the removal of fuchsin dye from wastewater. The study investigated different materials, including natural hydrogels, biochar, nanocomposites, and modified biopolymers, focusing on their adsorption capacities, mechanisms, and regeneration potential. It examined how these adsorbents interact with fuchsin dye, highlighting factors such as pH, contact time, and temperature that influence removal efficiency. The research compared the effectiveness of traditional and novel materials, demonstrating that natural and biomass-derived adsorbents show promising results with high adsorption capacities and environmentally friendly profiles. Additionally, it explored the regeneration and reuse of these materials to enhance sustainability and cost-effectiveness for large-scale wastewater treatment applications. The study emphasized the importance of optimizing operational parameters and developing innovative composite materials to improve dye removal performance. Overall, the article illustrated the potential of low-cost, biodegradable, and nanostructured adsorbents in addressing environmental pollution caused by dye wastewater, offering insights into future research directions such as regeneration methods and real-world application assessments.
