Recent studies indicate the presence of nano-scale titanium dioxide (TiO2) as an additive in human foodstuffs, but a practical protocol to isolate and separate nano-fractions from soluble foodstuffs as a source of material remains elusive. As such, we developed a method for separating the nano and submicron fractions found in commercial-grade TiO2 (E171) and E171 extracted from soluble foodstuf...

The potential of nanofluids for the improvement of heat transfer coefficient in various heat exchangeequipment has been considered and studied as a major application during recent decades. In this research,heat transfer coefficient of ZnO, TiO2 and ZnO/TiO2 nanofluids in a shell and tube heat exchanger has beenstudied experimentally. ZnO nanoparticle was synthesized through pre...

Hydrogen evolution coupled with the photochemical oxygenation of cyclohexene with water was observed in the system sensitized by Sn(IV)-porphyrin adsorbed on Pt loaded TiO2 nano-particles in aqueous acetonitrile solution upon visible light irradiation.

6-Phosphate aminopurine (PA), a purine analog, is usually used in clinical anticancer treatment and biochemical research. Up to now, to the best of our knowledge, no literature about the electrochemical behaviors of PA has been reported. In this study, nano-p–n junction heterostructures based on TiO2 nanobelts were produced by the assembly of p-type semiconducting NiO nanoparticles onto the n-t...

TiO2 and especially its nano-metric structure have many applications for environmental proposes. It can be used in mobilized or immobilized status, but its consumption is less in immobilized form and its process would be economical. In addition, the environmental problems would be minimized. There are a few methods for immobilization of nano-TiO2 inside the process. The sol-gel method is typica...

The present study seeks to investigate the capacity of polyaniline/titanium dioxide (PAn/TiO2) and Polypyrrole/titanium dioxide (PPy/TiO2) nano-adsorbents to adsorb Congo red anionic dye (CR) from aqueous solution. The variables effective in CR adsorption, including adsorbent dose, pH of the solution, contact time, initial dye concentration, and temperature were examined. The study yielded the ...

adsorption capacity of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol (4c2np) onto nano-ti02 from aqueous solutions wasinvestigated in a batch system by considering the effects of various parameters like contact time, nano-tio2 dosage, initial ph and initial 4c2np concentration. optimum conditions for 4c2np adsorptionwere found to be initial ph z 2, nano-tio2 closer- 0.01 g and equilibrium time 1 h. the adsorptionkine...

[Abstract] In order to fabricate new dye-sensitised solar cell, we proposed a new photoresponsive electrode structure using bio nano process. Carbon nanotube-TiO2 hybrid materials having multitudious nano-sclae cavities were realized using a bifunctional cage-shaped protein possessing carbonaceous material-binding peptides and Ti-binding peptides. The obtained structure was confirmed to consist...
