    • Equilibrium and Thermodynamic Studies on Biosorption of Pb (II) and Cd (II) Ions from Wastewater onto Clay Cellulose Nanocomposite Adsorbent 

      Kinoti, Ismael Kithinji; Marangu, Joseph Mwiti; M'thiruaine, Cyprian (Journal of Materials and Environmental Science, 2024)
      he adsorption of lead (II) and cadmium (II) ions from aqueous solutions by novel water hyacinth-based cellulose clay nanocomposite were studied and their adsorption performance established using the Langmuir, Dubinim-Radushkevich, ...
    • Removal of lead (II) and cadmium (II) Ions from synthetic waste water using clay cellulose nanocomposite 

      Kinoti, Ismael Kithinji (Meru University of Science and Technology, 2023)
      Removal of heavy metals from sewage effluent is necessary to avoid environmental contamination. Lead and cadmium ions have been found to be the main heavy metal contaminants in waste water mainly from municipal sources. ...

      Kinoti, Ismael Kithinji; Karanja, Esther Muthoni; Nthiga, Esther Wanja; M’thiruaine, Cyprian Muturia; Marangu, Joseph Mwiti (Hindawi, 2022-06-22)
      Due to rapid industrialization, urbanization, and surge in modern human activities, water contamination is a major threat to humanity globally. Contaminants ranging from organic compounds, dyes, to inorganic heavy metals ...
    • Rheology of Clay-Based Cement Systems–A Review 

      Masolia, Cleah Minayo; Kinoti, Ismael Kithinji; Mureti, Brian; Mwangi, Joseph Kaigai; Mutua, John; M’thiruaine, Cyprian Muturia; Marangu, Joseph Mwiti (Taylor & Francis, 2025-07)
      Cement is the world’s second-most consumed material and its production contributes substantially to global CO2 emissions. Replacing clinker with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), such as calcined clay, can lower ...
    • Use of zeolites in wastewater remediation 

      Kinoti, Ismael Kithinji; M’thiruaine, Cyprian Muturia; Marangu, Joseph Mwiti (Meru University of Science and Technology, 2022-06)
      Huge amounts of wastewater in low and lower-middle-income countries is released into the environment in untreated forms due to an increase in anthropogenic activities and disposal in water bodies. Pollution in water ...
