The effect of frying pressure on the kinetics of color changes during atmospheric and vacuum deep fat frying of Reshteh Khoshkar has been studied. The Hunter color parameters redness, yellowness, lightness and total color difference were used to estimate color changes during frying as a function of process. Lightness (L*) decreased from 85.37 to 75.01 with vacuum frying time, while redness (a*)...

In the present work investigations on a potential use of activated carbon for the removal of Methylene Blue (MB) from wastewater are presented. Adsorption kinetics of methylene blue has been studied using reaction-based and diffusion-based models. Three kinetic models, namely, pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and the Elovich are analyzed at the temperature of 298 K for the reaction-based...

A stability indicating High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method wasvalidated and used to study the degradation of cetirizine dihydrochloride in acidic and oxidativeconditions. The separation was carried out on a Symmetry C18 column and a mixture of 50 mMKH2PO4 and acetonitrile (60:40 v/v, pH = 3.5) was used as the mobile phase. The method waslinear over the range of 1-20 μg/mL of ce...

an ion imprinted polymer (iip) based on aniline-formaldehyde was synthesized and then modified with extra aniline as cross-linker in the presence and absence of sr (ii) as the template to produce ion imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde) (iipaf) and non imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde) (nipaf). the sorbent was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and was used for solid ph...

The electrocoagulation (EC) is a simple and efficient method for the treatment of many water and wastewaters.The kinetics of decolorization of Acid Yellow 23 by EC using iron electrodes was studied. Theelectrodecolorization rate follows pseudo-first order kinetic with respect to the AY23 concentration havingkapp= 5.65 cm min-1 at T= 295 K. The rate equation is as follows:ln [AY23]t – ln [AY23]0...

Kinetics of the title reaction has been carried out by studying the reaction spectrophotometrically at 80 oC and pH 5.0 in presence of cationic gemini (alkanediyl-α, ωbis(dimethylhexadecylammonium bromide)) surfactants. The reaction followed first-order kinetics in [Zn(II)-Gly-Tyr]T complex and fractional-order kinetics in [ninhydrin]T. Typical rate constant (kΨ) increase and leveling-off regio...

in this research, chitosan was used for the removal of cr (vi) ions from aqueous solution. the effect of parameters like solution ph, initial cr (vi) concentration, agitation time, amount of adsorbent and agitation speed on the adsorption process was studied. the experimental equilibrium data were analyzed by using various models such as langmuir and freundlich. freundlich isotherm model fitted...

A number of enzyme digestion assays show apparent first-order kinetics of reactant depletion. There are four possible explanations of this phenomenon: (i) the reaction is dominated by a first-order limiting step, (ii) the digestion follows a pseudo-first-order kinetics under the excess of a reactant species, (iii) the first-order kinetics is only applicable to the slow transient of the reaction...
