Adsorption of toxic crystal violet dye using coffee husks: Equilibrium, kinetics and thermodynamics study

Cheruiyot, Gilbert K; Wanyonyi, Wycliffe C; Kiplimo, Joyce J; Maina, Esther N (Scientific African, 2019)

Crystal violet (CV) dye is a water-soluble, toxic, recalcitrant organic dye that causes se- vere health problems and environment pollution. The current study assesses the potential of Waste Coffee Husks (WCH) in adsorption ...
Cellulose nanofibrils from sugarcane bagasse as a reinforcing in polyvinyl alcohol composite films for food packaging

Otenda, Brian V; Kareru, Patrick G; Madivoli, Edwin S; Maina, Ernest G; Wanakai, Sammy I; Wanyonyi, Wycliffe C (Journal of Natural Fibers, 2020-12-06)

Due to a high aspect ratio and enhanced mechanical strength, cellulose nanofibrils can be used as reinforcing elements in biocomposite films. In this study, cellulose nanofibrils were isolated from sugarcane bagasse ...
Kinetic and equilibrium studies of Congo red dye adsorption on cabbage waste powder

Wekoye, Joan N; Wanyonyi, Wycliffe C; Wangila, Phanice T; Tonui, Mathew K (Environmental chemistry and ecotoxicology, 2020-01-29)

In this work, the potential of utilizing of dried Cabbage Waste Powder (CWP) as an agro-waste biosorbent for the removal of noxious Congo Red (CR) dye was successfully investigated. FTIR spectroscopic analysis found multiple ...
Utilization of macadamia seed husks as a low-cost sorbent for removing cationic dye (basic blue 3 dye) from aqueous solution

Mutunga, Felista M; Wanyonyi, Wycliffe C; Ongera, Gilbert (Environmental chemistry and ecotoxicology, 2020)

This study examined the possibility of using Macadamia Seed Husks (MSH) as a low-cost sorbent for removal of recal- citrant Basic Blue 3 Dye (BB3). Batch adsorption experiments were performed to evaluate the capability ...
