photoreactor using solar radiation. the effect of various parameters such as ph, initial concentration of pollutant, catalyst dose, oxidant, and time variation were studied. the determination of the best catalyst was studied amongst the four catalysts (tio2, zno, psa and ssa) .the kinetics of degradation of isooctane was also studied. the results showed that tio2 was the best catalyst with a de...

The photocatalytic process using semiconductors with a nanostructure is one of the technologies usedfor the destructive oxidation of organic compounds such as surfactants. In this paper, thephotocatalytic degradation of Cetyl pyridinium chloride (CPC), was investigated in aqueous phaseusing various semiconductors such as titanium dioxide (Ti02), zinc oxide (ZnO), stannic oxide(Sn02). The degrad...

Abstract This research has aimed to examine the feedback effects between economic growth and environmental degradation through health that is one of human capital elements and also the consequences of such these relationships on economic convergence process during the period 1990-2013 for 60 developing countries in framework of simultaneous equations model by using unbalanced panel data analysi...

the photocatalytic degradation of nonionic surfactant triton x-100 was studied by a batch process using znocommercial powders as the catalyst on irradiation with uv light and its behaviour comparatively with respect tozno nanoparticles with diameter size 20 nm. the effects of different conditions such as catalyst type, amount ofthe photocatalyst, ph of the system, initial concentration and elec...

early in the development of many animals, before transcription begins, any change in the pattern of protein synthesis is attributed to a change in the translational activity or stability of mrna in the egg and early embryo. as a result, translational control is critical for a variety of developmental decisions, including oocyte maturation and initiation of preimplantation development. in this s...

abstract herbicides are the main sources of soil and water pollution in paddy fields. herbicides mobility to the surface and ground water is a major concern for human health and the environment. it is, therefore, necessary to investigate their fate and their interactions in natural ecosystems. to meet this purpose, field experiments were conducted to measure kinetic of thiobencarb dissipation i...

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...

a simple and rapid stability indicating method based on capillary zone electrophoresis has been developed and validated for the analysis of buserelin (bus). the best separations were achieved by using a bare fused silica capillary (75 m i.d.; 65.5 cm total, 57.0 cm effective length), phosphate buffer (ph = 3.00; 26.4 mm), at 35 °c. the sample was hydrodynamically injected at 50 mbar for 5 seco...

in pakistan besides pesticide contamination from agricultural field, the manufacturing industriesare also contributing relatively high quantities of toxic pesticides into the environment. these pesticides maybe toxic, mutagenic or carginogenic and may be bioaccumulated or biomagnified by the biota. because ofpersistent nature of pesticides, its removal from environmental system become difficult...

novel ceramic oxides have been increasingly focused in recent years because of their potentialapplications in environmental purification especially to treat organic contaminants present in water. in thisresearch work, a set of nio-co3o4 nano-ceramic composite materials were prepared by a simple refluxcondensation method using nickel acetate / cobalt acetate as precursor salts, sodium monododecy...
