چکیده

Several closely related branched structures related to the well-established benzyl ether dendrimers were tested as hosts for the removal of pyrene from water. Fluorescence spectroscopy based complexation studies showed that the first generation benzyl ether dendrimers removed on average 94 % of pyrene from a saturated aqueous solution after 30 min. By contrast, branched systems containing modified benzyl ether or cyclohexane functional groups removed between 0 and 75 % of pyrene at the same time point while systems with benzyl amine resulted in a 77 % decrease in pyrene. This selectivity eroded over two days after which time all dendrimeric types removed pyrene to approximately the same extent. Inclusion constants of 10(9)-10(11) M(-1) were calculated for the branched systems studied.

Comparison and analysis of two natural adsorbents of Sorghum and Ziziphus nummularia pyrene for removal of Erythrosine dye from aquatic environments

One pollutant which seriously threatens water resources is dye. Therefore, finding a suitable method to separate the dye in water resources is very important. An adsorption process that uses low cost adsorbents is considered as an efficient strategy for this purpose. In this study, Erythrosine dye removal from an aquatic environment using natural absorbents, namely Sorghum and Ziziphus nummular...

Enhanced Removal of Pb+2 from Wastewater Using Combination of Ultrasound and nZVI Methods

This research reported a new method of removal of Pb+2from water by using a nano zero valent iron (nZVI) assisted ultrasonic wave. At first, nZVI was synthesized by an ultrasound assisted method. Particles morphology and surface composition were characterized by FESEM, XRD, and EDX. The XRD patterns showed that the crystallinity of the nZVI prepared using ultrasonic conditions was hi...
