This critique examines a review article in this journal on adsorption techniques for removing metal ions from wastewater. The article is marred by several flaws, including tortured phrases, miscitations, incoherent statements, and factual inaccuracies. These problems weaken the article's clarity and reliability, raising doubts about the authors' understanding of the subject. As a result, the review's credibility is compromised, limiting its value as a reliable resource for researchers. This critique highlights these issues, stressing the importance of accuracy and rigor in scientific writing. ? 2024 Elsevier Ltd

Recently, non-edible vegetable oils have been considered as prospective feedstocks for biodiesel production. This is mainly attributed to their ability to overcome the problems of food versus fuel crisis related to edible oils. Globally, there are more than 350 oil-bearing crops identified as potential sources for biodiesel production. The evaluation of the physical and chemical properties of non-edible feedstocks is very important to assess their viability for future biodiesel production. Therefore, this paper aims to study the properties of some potential non-edible feedstocks. Moreover, the paper studies the physical and chemical properties of these promising crops and compares them with other edible oils. These oils include: crude Calophyllum inophyllum L. (CCIO), Jatropha curcas L. (CJCO), Sterculia foetida L. (CSFO), Croton megalocarpus L. (CCMO), Moringa oleifera L. (CMOO), patchouli (CPO), coconut (CCO), palm (CPaO), canola (CCaO), soybean (CSO) and Pangim edule (CPEO) oils. 14 Different properties have been determined and presented in this study. � 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

It is obligatory to educate student researchers before they start their work by teaching them about the various types of plagiarism and how to avoid them. It is also vital that research supervisors take into account the sources of data that are explored in their students� manuscripts. This article tries to draw the reader�s attention to the importance of avoiding all types of plagiarism in their research. � 2016, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.

In this critique, we address multiple shortcomings identified in a recent article published in this journal concerning the adsorption of Pd(II) and Pt(IV) ions from acidic solutions using a novel nanoadsorbent. The identified issues encompass erroneous model equations, unverified adsorption mechanisms, inappropriate application of simplified models, incorrect parameter units, and flawed thermodynamic parameters. ? 2024 Elsevier Ltd

This correspondence critically examines and rectifies modeling deficiencies identified in a recent article published in this journal. Our analysis covers a range of models and issues, including the Temkin isotherm, the Flory?Huggins isotherm, the pseudo-first-order kinetic model, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, the intraparticle diffusion model, the Elovich kinetic model, and the computation of thermodynamic parameters. The elucidation and correction of these modeling issues contribute to a more accurate and reliable understanding of the studied phenomena, thereby enhancing the scientific rigor of the subject paper. ? 2024 Elsevier B.V.
