A Review on the Removal of Cu²⁺ and Ni²⁺ Ions from Water Using Biodegradable Organic Materials

Wisdom J. George, Aniedi E. Nyong, Kufre E. Essien, Itohowo O. Akpan & Elnathan I. Umoh · Asian Journal of Applied Chemistry Research · 2026

Water contamination by copper (Cu²⁺) and nickel (Ni²⁺) ions remains an important environmental and public health concern because these metals persist in aquatic systems, accumulate in living organisms and may cause toxic effects at elevated concentrations. Conventional removal me...

UV/visible Spectroscopic Studies and Analytical Evaluation of Dicliptera verticillate Leaves Extracts as Eco-friendly Indicator for Acid-Base Titration

Edet W. Nsi, Aniekan E. Akpakpan, Emaime J. Uwanta, Nyeneime W. Akpanudo & Itohowo O. Akpan · Asian Journal of Applied Chemistry Research · 2022

Synthetic indicators usually employed in acid-base titration to determine the end point is expensive and non-biodegradable. Hence there is need to develop an eco-friendly and cost effective acid-base indicator from plant origin to serve as efficient alternative for the synthetic...
