air pollution has always been a major problem in metropolises. volatile organic compounds are one of the major pollutants that are caused by incomplete combustion of fuels in vehicles and gasoline evaporation, especially in fueling stations. removing these pollutants through traditional methods has always been considered. the paper investigates and studies chemical adsorption behavior of benzen...

background: in this study, ferrate (vi) and ultraviolet (uv) radiation were employed to remove hydrogen sulfide from municipal wastewater resulting in a reduction in chemical oxygen demand (cod). although ferrate (vi) and uv have been used individually for the removal of a few pollutants from urban and industrial wastewater, there exists no study to investigate the effectiveness of simultaneous...

conclusions results indicated that annular fluidized bed reactor’s adsorbers are useful techniques for vocs adsorption. comparison of two particle ranges indicates that in all concentrations and all flow rates of the experiments, smaller particle size adsorption are better. in superficial velocity above the minimum fluidization velocity, pressure drop of fluidized beds are less than the pressur...

Introduction. T HE affinity between certain organic compounds and clays has been known for many years. Lloyd 1 reported the adsorptive capacity of fuller's earth for alkaloids in 1916 without theorizing extensively about the mechanism. Smith 2 reacted organic bases and their salts with bentonite and presented evidence that the reaction was one of baseexchange or metathesis, while tIauser a has ...

2-Pyridones are important heterocyclic compounds that are widely used in medical chemistry, and their various derivatives have significant biological and medical applications. In this paper, the synthesis of 2-pyridones as well as 2-pyridone-based compounds, such as 2-quinolones, using microwave assisted organic chemistry is reviewed. The review is divided in three parts. In the first part, mic...

A new class of nitrogen-containing endoperoxides were synthesised by a photochemical [4 + 2]-cycloaddition between a diene and singlet oxygen. The endoperoxides were dihydroxylated and protected to provide a series of endoperoxide building blocks for organic synthesis, with potential use as precursors for the synthesis of branched azasugars. Preliminary exploration of the chemistry of these bui...
