    Abstract Since water hyacinth (WH) spreads quickly and adversely affects the development of both animals and plants by robbing water bodies of their nutrients and oxygen, WH is widely regarded as a noxious weed around the world. Therefore, turning this undesirable weed into valuable chemicals and fuels aids in developing countries' ability to sustain themselves. Hence, the present work aims to optimize average biogas production (ABP), cumulative methane yield (CMY), and methane concentration (MC) during biomethanation of WH using cow dung. The investigations were conducted in a semi-batch digester at various pH (6–8), temperature (30–50 °C) and cow dung dosage (0.0143–0.0429 m³/m³ WH slurry). The central composite design (CCD) of response surface method was used to optimize the pH, temperature, and cow dung dosage. The effects of studied process parameters on the ABP, CMY and MC were significant. The predicted and experimental responses showed goodness of quadratic fit. The optimum ABP of 0.058 m³/kg WH, CMY of 0.055 m³/kg WH, and MC of 83.38% were achieved at the pH, temperature and cow dung dosage of 7.2, 47.5 °C and 0.0428 m³/m³ WH slurry. In addition, anaerobic biodegradability was found to be between 14.7 and 72.6% in all tests. Hence, Eichhornia crassipes could be a potential substrate to produce maximum biogas using cow dung.

    Abstract Heavy metals adsorption by adsorbents prepared from natural materials is a low-cost effective method for their removal from aqueous environments. This study aims to assess the applicability of orange zest biochar to adsorb divalent copper (cupric chloride) from its aqueous solution by maximizing the adsorption capacity using feed-forward back-propagation neural network (FFBPNN)–Box–Behnken design (BBD) modelling. BBD modelling predicted the maximum of 99.61% copper removal at an initial concentration of copper, adsorbent dosage and temperature of 100 ppm, 192.5 mg per 100 mL of feed solution and 38 °C. The results showed the best fit between experimental, BBD and FFBPNN predicted values. Langmuir isotherm fitted well with the experimental data than Freundlich model, and the maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 116.28 mg/g. Also, adsorption kinetic data followed the Lagergren’s pseudo-first-order kinetic model. Thus, the obtained results conclude that the orange zest biochar was found to be one of the potential adsorbents for the removal of divalent copper from its aqueous solution.

    Abstract This article examines the practical utilization of biochar obtained from Turbinaria ornata biomass in batch and packed bed column modes for remediation of zinc from synthetic and electroplating industrial wastewaters. The zinc uptake by Turbinaria ornata-derived biochar (TODB) was high at pH 4.5 according to the batch pH edge experimental trials performed using the aqueous zinc solution. The maximum uptake of 1.78 mmol/g was determined through batch isotherm trials. The isotherm data were successfully described using the Toth and Redlich–Peterson models, whereas pseudo-first-order model better predicted Zn-TODB kinetics data. The elution of zinc from zinc-loaded TODB was more successful with 0.01 M HCl as elutant with potential reuse of TODB for three subsequent cycles. The industrial wastewater employed in the present research was quantified to comprise of 1.34 mmol/L zinc ions with large quantity of dissolved solids (838 mg/L) and surplus co-ions. Due to this excessive presence of competing ions, zinc uptake by TODB from industrial wastewater was strongly inhibited. Continuous-flow sorption experiments were performed in TODB-loaded packed column at 5 mL/min. The results indicated that TODB column portrayed sorptional capacities of 1.21 and 1.13 mmol zinc/g for synthetic solutions and industrial wastewaters, respectively. Column regeneration trials for three adsorption-elution cycles were successful which confirms that application of TODB for clean-up of real zinc effluent was effective and practical.

    Abstract In the present investigation, induction furnace (IF) steel slag as coarse aggregate with 0%, 20% and 40% replaced concrete specimens of size 150 × 150 × 150 mm was prepared as an initiative to utilize iron-rich IF steel slag. The casted concrete specimens were cured for 28 days at room temperature (28 °C) in freshwater, and the obtained compressive strength is 22.5, 24.0 and 29.2 N/mm², respectively. The blocks were then immersed in seawater under laboratory condition for 28 days, and variation in pH was monitored at regular intervals. The composition and mineralogical phases [quartz (SiO₂), iscorite (Fe₇SiO₁₀), hematite (ε-Fe₂O₃) and almandine (Fe₃Al₂Si₃O₁₀)] present in IF steel slag were identified using XRF and XRD analysis, respectively. Surface morphology and elemental composition were studied using FESEM with EDAX analysis for before and after immersion of concrete blocks in seawater. Structural bonding of concrete blocks before and after immersion was studied using FTIR analysis. Compressive strength of concrete specimens after the immersion in seawater was evaluated and compared with before immersion in seawater. This initiative will be a major support for induction furnace steel industries via economic benefits. Utilization of iron-rich IF steel slag in marine concrete can be a vital candidate for the betterment of marine ecosystem via primary production of marine resources.

    Abstract In the present investigation, experiments were conducted in wide open throttle condition (WOT) for different speed ranging from 1200 rpm to 1800 rpm at an interval of 200 on a single-cylinder four-stroke variable compression ratio (VCR) SI engine. The engine fueled with equi-volume blend of methanol/gasoline fuel, while 14° BTDC ignition timing is maintained for all three different compression ratios (8, 9 & 10). Increasing the compression ratio from CR8 to CR10 for the methanol/gasoline blend has improved combustion efficiency by increasing the peak pressure and net heat release value by 27.5% and 30% respectively at a speed of 1600 rpm. The performance results show a good agreement of improvisation of 25% increase in BTE, and BSFC reduction by 19% at compression ratio 10:1. At higher compression ratio 10:1, there was a significant decrease observed in CO and HC by 30–40%, and the same trend is observed at all speeds; however, NOx emission increased with the increasing CR.
