Recycling of raw corn cob residues as an agricultural waste material for ammonium removal: kinetics, isotherms, and mechanisms
Corn cob is an agricultural by-product worldwide available in large amounts. In this study, the potential of raw corn cob as a natural lignocellulosic waste material of no economic value was investigated for the removal of ammonium ions from aqueous solution. Sorption capacities of raw granular corn cob (GCC) for ammonium ions were evaluated in simulated and actual wastewater samples. The FT-IR ...

Preparation of activated carbon from corn cob and its adsorption behavior on Cr(VI) removal
Operation experiments were conducted to optimize the preparation of activated carbons from corn cob. The Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of the produced activated carbons was also evaluated. The impact of the adsorbent dosage, contact time, initial solution pH and temperature was studied. The results showed that the produced corn cob activated carbon had a good Cr(VI) adsorptive capacity; the ...

Corn cob characteristics in irrigated central great plains studies
Escalating fossil fuel cost and concern over global climate change have accelerated interest in cellulosic feedstocks, such as corn (Zea mays L.) cobs, for liquid fuel production. Little information is available about this plant organ. We compiled and summarized available cob data from several recent field studies in the Central Great Plains. Data were collected from two locations in Colorado and ...
