Abstract Nanotechnology is one of the emerging technologies with unique functionalities and great potential in removal pollutants from waste water. Nanoparticle mediated water treatment a promising alternative to traditional techniques. Considerable amount grey thrown out household activities on daily basis, which turn lead environmental pollution long run hence results increased fresh consumpt...

This study was undertaken with the aim of illuminating the soil-plant interactions of Pistacia lentiscus L., which is a Mediterranean sclerophylleous coastal zone plant in the Western Anatolian part of Turkey. The soil analysis data showed that this plant grows on different kinds of soils such as sandy-clayey-loam, clayey-loam, sandy-loam and loamy texture. Soils are not saline, with pH moderat...

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in human body and essential for the formation and maintenance of bones and teeth as well as diverse cellular functions. Calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) is widely used as a dietary supplement; however, oral absorption efficiency of CaCO₃ is extremely low, which may be overcome by applying nano-sized materials. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of food grade ...

efforts to enhance oil recovery through wettability alteration by nanoparticles have been attracted inrecent years. however, many basic questions have been ambiguous up until now. nanoparticlespenetrate into pore volume of porous media, stick on the core surface, and by creating homogeneouswater-wet area, cause to alter wettability. this work introduces the new concept of adding znonanoparticle...

Stearates containing overbased detergent nanoparticles (NPs) are used as acid neutralising additives in automotive and marine engine oils. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the self-assembly of calcium carbonate, calcium stearate as a co-surfactant and stabilising surfactants of such NPs in a model explicit molecular hydrophobic solvent have been carried out using a methodology described f...
