Raising the Research Octane Number using an optimized Simulated Moving Bed technology towards greater sustainability and economic return (2022)
Journal Article
Muhammed, T., Tokay, B., & Conradie, A. (2023). Raising the Research Octane Number using an optimized Simulated Moving Bed technology towards greater sustainability and economic return. Fuel, Article 126864. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2022.126864

The scale of CO2 emissions from light-duty vehicle (LDV) fleets worldwide has led governments to mandate substantive improvements in vehicle fuel economy, thereby mitigating climate change. Raising the Research Octane Number (RON) of fuel through iso...

Regenerability of fly-ash derived zeolite NaP1: Evaluation via copper recovery (2022)
Journal Article
Ankrah, A. F., Tokay, B., & Snape, C. E. (2023). Regenerability of fly-ash derived zeolite NaP1: Evaluation via copper recovery. Engineering Reports, 5(4), Article e12591. https://doi.org/10.1002/eng2.12591

Effective regeneration of adsorbents is considered as one of the essential qualities for commercial use. However, most of the studies have only reported the adsorption properties and overlooked the reuse of adsorbents. In this study, we determined th...

Heavy Metal Removal from Aqueous Solutions Using Fly-Ash Derived Zeolite NaP1 (2022)
Journal Article
Ankrah, A. F., Tokay, B., & Snape, C. E. (2022). Heavy Metal Removal from Aqueous Solutions Using Fly-Ash Derived Zeolite NaP1. International Journal of Environmental Research, 16(2), Article 17. https://doi.org/10.1007/s41742-022-00395-9

Fly-ash derived zeolites have recently -received great attention as cheaper adsorbents to remove heavy metals from water since they can be synthesized from a waste product. In this study, we evaluated the single- and multi-cation adsorption efficienc... Read More about Heavy Metal Removal from Aqueous Solutions Using Fly-Ash Derived Zeolite NaP1.
