This study explores an innovative approach for the removal of Bisphenol-A (BPA) from aqueous solutions using a polymeric resin impregnated with a phosphorous-based extractant. Bisphenol-A, a widely used industrial chemical, is known for its endocrine-disrupting properties and environmental persistence. The impregnated polymeric resin offers a promising solution for efficient BPA removal due to the selective binding affinity of the phosphorous-based extractant. The experimental investigations include batch sorption studies, isotherm analysis, and kinetic evaluations to elucidate the efficiency and mechanisms of BPA removal. The findings showcase the potential of the developed polymeric resin as a sustainable and effective tool for purifying water contaminated with Bisphenol-A.

This study provides a comprehensive exploration of the feasibility and potential benefits of utilizing bio-naphtha as an alternative olefins feedstock in Indonesia. Against the backdrop of increasing environmental concerns and the growing demand for sustainable practices in the petrochemical industry, bio-naphtha emerges as a promising alternative derived from renewable sources. The research encompasses the production process, economic viability, and environmental impact, offering valuable insights into the sustainable transition of olefins production in Indonesia.

This study presents a novel and efficient method for the synthesis of single-phase tin(II) oxide nanoparticles through the application of microwave-assisted hydrothermal technique. The synthesis process involves the rapid and controlled hydrothermal reaction of tin precursors under microwave irradiation, leading to the formation of high-quality tin(II) oxide nanoparticles with uniform size distribution and crystalline purity. The microwave-assisted approach offers several advantages, including reduced reaction time, enhanced reaction kinetics, and improved yield, compared to conventional hydrothermal methods. The synthesized tin(II) oxide nanoparticles exhibit promising properties for various applications, including catalysis, sensing, energy storage, and optoelectronic devices.
