aqueous phase thiosulfate removal using photo catalysis

Amphiphilic photo-isomerisable phosphanes for aqueous organometallic catalysis.

Water-soluble phosphanes were tagged with a light-responding diazo group. Upon UV exposure, the diazo-isomerisation led to phosphane morphology change, resulting in an increase in the reaction rate of an aqueous palladium-catalysed cleavage reaction.

Optimizing photo-Fenton like process for the removal of diesel fuel from the aqueous phase

BACKGROUND In recent years, pollution of soil and groundwater caused by fuel leakage from old underground storage tanks, oil extraction process, refineries, fuel distribution terminals, improper disposal and also spills during transferring has been reported. Diesel fuel has created many problems for water resources. The main objectives of this research were focused on assessing the feasibility ...

Complete removal of textile dyes from aqueous media using ionic-liquid-based aqueous two-phase systems

Aqueous Phase Removal of Fluoride as Fluorosis agent Using Montmorillonite Clay as Natural Nanoadsorbent

Natural nanomaterial; Montmorillonite Clay was collected and purified and then applied in the removal of Fluoride. The Montmorillonite Clay was grounded and 150g was weighed and refluxed in 500mL 1MHCl at 1200C for one hour thirty minutes and activated Montmorillonite Clay was obtained. Flouride was determined with the aid of SPADNS Reagent (2-parasulfophenylazo)-1,8-dihydroxy-3,6-naphthalene d...

Aqueous phase homogeneous catalysis using core–shell nanoreactors: Application to rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation of 1-octene

High catalytic activity (turnover frequencies up to 700 h) was achieved using new triphenylphosphinefunctionalized core cross-linked micelles, TPP@CCM, as nanoreactors and [Rh(acac)(CO)2] as catalyst precursor for the aqueous biphasic hydroformylation of 1-octene. While the hydrophobic core of the polymer offers an adequate environment for the catalytic reaction, its hydrophilic shell confines ...

Investigation of Photo–Fenton–Like Process Efficiency in Diazinon Pesticide Removal from Aqueous Solutions

Diazinon pesticide and its metabolites have been identified in aquatic systems worldwide. It was related to toxicity for aquatic organisms, animals, and humans. Waters contaminated with such persistent insecticides should be treated with suitable treatment processes. In this research, Diazinon removal from aqueous solutions by the photo–Fenton–like process (UV/H2O2/Fe...
