Batch and fixed-bed column studies of selenite removal from contaminated water by orange peel-based sorbent
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Orange peel is a biomass derived from citrus processing with desirable properties for metal sorption. In recent years, orange peel has been used to remove various heavy metals and toxic oxyanions. Selenium (Se) is an ...
Development and characterization of activated hydrochars from orange peels as potential adsorbents for emerging organic contaminants
(Elsevier, 2015-05)
Activated hydrochars obtained from the hydrothermal carbonization of orange peels (Citrus sinensis) followed by various thermochemical processing were assessed as adsorbents for emerging contaminants in water. Thermal ...
Obtaining lipases from byproducts of orange juice processing
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-11-15)
The presence of lipases was observed in three byproducts of orange juice processing: peel, core and frit. The enzymes were characterised biochemically over a wide pH range from neutral (6-7) to alkaline (8-9). The optimal ...
Obtaining lipases from byproducts of orange juice processing
(Elsevier B.V., 2015)
Orange peel fragment improves antioxidant capacity and haematological profile of Nile tilapia subjected to heat/dissolved oxygen-induced stress
(2019-01-01)
This study evaluated the ability of orange peel fragment (OPF) to act as a functional feedstuff, influencing growth, haematological profile, and antioxidant enzyme activity of Nile tilapia subjected heat/dissolved ...
Discoloration of textile dyes by peroxidases from melon, chayote, lemon and orange peels
(2012-11-28)
Traditional textile finishing industry consumes about 100 liters
of water to process about 1 Kg of textile materials, it has been estimated
that about 10% of the dye used in the process does not bind
to the fibers. This ...

THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF WATER ADSORPTION FROM ORANGE PEELS
(Federal Inst Amapa, Campus Macapa-ifap, 2015-04-01)
Orange peels are a promising agroindustry- waste that can be implemented in the extraction and production of pectin, as dietary fiber in food formulations, and as a biopolymer for metal adsorption in water treatment. The ...
Proximate composition of orange peel, pea peel and rice husk wastes and their potential use as antimicrobial agents and antioxidants
(2021-06)
The proximate composition of extracts from three selected agro-wastes (rice husk, pea peels and orange peels) was determined by following AACC protocols. All wastes were found to have intrinsic phytochemical compositions ...
