Formulation of Novel Composite (Activated Nanoclay/Hydrocolloid of Nostoc sphaericum) and Its Application in the Removal of Heavy Metals from Wastewater
(MDPI Journal List, 2022)Acceso abiertoThe removal of heavy metals from wastewater is an environmental challenge which demands the use of environmentally friendly materials that promote a circular economy. This study aimed to apply a novel composite of an ... -
Modified Polymeric Biosorbents from Rumex acetosella for the Removal of Heavy Metals in Wastewater
(MDPI Journal List, 2022)Acceso abiertoThe contamination of water resources by effluents from various industries often contains heavy metals, which cause irreversible damage to the environment and health. The objective was to evaluate different biosorbents ... -
Effect of the Addition of Corn Husk Cellulose Nanocrystals in the Development of a Novel Edible Film
(MDPI Journal List, 2022)Acceso abiertoThe cellulose from agroindustrial waste can be treated and converted into nanocrystals or nanofibers. It could be used to produce biodegradable and edible films, contributing to the circular economy and being environmentally ... -
Preliminary characterization of a spray-dried hydrocolloid from a high andean algae (nostoc sphaericum)
(Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland., 2022)Acceso abiertoThe search for new natural sources of hydrocolloids with stabilizing, thickening, and good binding capacity, from raw materials that are environmentally friendly and that contribute to the circular economy is a challenge ... -
Storage conditions and adsorption thermodynamic Propertiesfor purple Corn
(Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland., 2022)Acceso abiertoAdsorption isotherms provide insight into the thermodynamic properties governed by food storage conditions. Adsorption isotherms of purple corn of the Canteño variety were evaluated at 18, 25, and 30 C, for the equilibrium ... -
Rheological and functional properties of dark chocolate with partial substitution of peanuts and sacha inchi
(Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland., 2022)Acceso abiertoChocolate is a widely consumed product, due to the contribution of fats and antioxidant compounds; the addition of other components makes it possible to increase the content of polyunsaturated fatty acids, although they ... -
Proposal of a water-quality index for high andean basins: application to the Chumbao river, Andahuaylas, Peru
(Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland., 2022)Acceso abiertoThewater fromthe high Andean rivers is peculiar due to its composition and the geomorphology of its sources, and naturally or anthropogenically contamination is not discarded along its course. This water is used for ... -
Multimetal removal in aqueous medium using a potato starch/nopal mucilage copolymer: A study of adsorption kinetics and isotherms
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)Acceso abiertoIn reducing heavy metals from water for direct or indirect consumption, various synthetic materials have been used; there is a tendency to use natural, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly materials. The aim was ... -
Bioactive compounds and sensory analysis of freeze-dried prickly pear fruits from an inter andean valley in Peru
(Revistas MDPI, 2023)Acceso abiertoPrickly pear fruits are seasonal and have shades ranging from pale green to deep purple. Their pigments are associated with bioactive compounds, being sensitive to thermal transformation processes for their conservation. ...
