In this study, we exploit dye patterns to identify flow types in macroporous soils as a step forward from using dye patterns simply as qualitative pictures that illustrate preferential flow. Dye tracer experiments at different irrigation rates and initial soil moisture conditions were carried out on three hillslope sites. Several vertical and horizontal soil sections were prepared after each ex...

In this study, preparation and application of novel biocomposite materials for textile dye removal which are produced by immobilization of specific bacteria onto electrospun nanofibrous webs are presented. A textile dye remediating bacterial isolate, Clavibacter michiganensis, was selected for bacterial immobilization, a commercial reactive textile dye, Setazol Blue BRF-X, was selected as the t...

application of polymers in novel and advanced scientific technologies is increasingly expanding. in this regard, optical polymers among different materials have found a special and unique position. a novel dye doped polymer thin film was prepared by taking advantage of dye molecules' interaction with the host environment. this sample, like self-assembled structures, makes use of this inter...

In dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cells (DSPECs) for water splitting or reduction of CO2, the most important figures merit are cell efficiency and stability. Maximizing these values requires use complex surface structures to perform key chemical reactions. The latter require a high level integrated research with focus on formation stabilization molecular both photoanodes photocathodes. Su...

The application of biodegradable chitosan fiber for healthy and hygienic textiles is limited due to its poor acid resistance in wet processing and poor antioxidant activity. In order to prepare chitosan fiber with good acid resistance and high antioxidant activity, chitosan fiber was first crosslinked by a water-soluble aziridine crosslinker, and then dyed with natural lac dye consisting of pol...

Dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) is considered as a feasible route to the clean and renewable energy conversion technique. The commercial application requires further enhancements on photovoltaic efficiency and simplification on the device fabrication. For avoiding the unpreferable trade-off between photocurrent (JSC) and photovoltage (VOC), here we report the molecular engineering and comprehe...

Application of extremophilic plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) and their enzymes in bioremediation have been received increasing interest due to eco-friendly nature effectiveness for bio treatment diverse industrial micro pollutants. In this work, the azo-dye decolorization potential halophilic PGPB Halomonas desertis G11 was evaluated optimized using central composite experimental design ...
