today the industrial wastes are one of the main problems in the developing countries. discharging the industrial wastewater into environment is harmful for human health and other living creatures.thus decreasing of the pollution load of waste waters is an important environmental issue.adsorption of chemical oxygen demand by biomass wastes can be a proper and low cost method for cod removal from...

Developing sustainable chemical methods to synthesize silver nanoparticles has drawn significant research interest. Due to their unique and well-defined physical-chemical properties, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have become one of the most promising renewable nanomaterials. Here we use CNC to mediate silver nanoparticle synthesis and elucidate the effect of CNC surface chemistry (as defined by...

Systematic studies of silver nanoparticle synthesis in a continuous-flow single-mode microwave reactor using polyol process were performed, revealing that the synthesis is exceptionally effective to give very small metal particles at full reaction yield and very high productivity. Inlet concentration of silver nitrate or silver acetate, applied as metal precursors, varied between 10 and 50 mM, ...

Highly stable silver nanoparticle-oligonucleotide conjugates were prepared. Based on the mixed DNA-functionalized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), multiplex DNA detections were demonstrated successfully by SERS.

In this study, ZnO nanoparticles were loaded on activated carbon prepared from almond shell (ZnO-NP-AC). Then, this novel material applied as an efficient adsorbent for the ultrasonic assisted simultaneous removal of Basic Blue 41(BB41) and Basic Red 46 (BR46) in binary solution.  The efficiency of proposed activated carbon was enhanced by acid treatment and subsequent modification by physical ...

Silver nanoparticles are extensively used due to their chemical and physical properties and promising applications in areas such as medicine and electronics. Controlled synthesis of silver nanoparticles remains a major challenge due to the difficulty in producing long-term stable particles of the same size and shape in aqueous solution. To address this problem, we examine three strategies to st...

The Si-coated SiC (Si-SiC) composite nanoparticle was prepared by non-transferred arc thermal plasma processing of solid-state synthesized SiC powder and was used as a sintering additive for SiC ceramic formation. Sintered SiC pellet was prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) process, and the effect of nano-sized Si-SiC composite particles on the sintering behavior of micron-sized SiC powder ...

This study focus on the preparation of two supports including activated carbon derived from medlar and Palladium nanoparticles loaded on activated carbon (Pd-NP-AC). Subsequently, both adsorbent modified with a novel Schiff base chelating agent and their potential applicability for determination of trace amounts of metal ions from aqueous solution has been investigated. The method is based on c...
