Background & Aims of the Study: In this study, 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol (PAR) as model azo dye was used. In spectroscopic measurements and studies of PAR reagent as a ligand are used to formation a complex with toxic metals. So, removal and degradation these compounds of wastewaters are necessary. The aim of this study is the degradation of PAR from aqueous solutions in circulating fludized ...

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...

In this study, the degradation potential of five polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by aerobic mixed bacterial cultures was investigated. Microorganisms were isolated from hydrocarbon contaminated soils of Shadegan wetland located in southwest of Iran. The degradation experiments were conducted in liquid cultures. PAH or PAHs concentration was 100 mg/L at the beginning of degradation e...

in this work, thermal degradation behavior of a fuel-rich energetic mixture containing epoxy binder was studied by thrmogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry under dynamic nitrogen atmosphere at different heating rates. variation of the thermal degradation activation energy of the mixture was evaluated by differential and integral isoconversional methods via akts software p...

high strength fresh leachates generated at a new disposal trench, compost plant and partially stabilized leachate of an older trench were characterized in terms of anaerobic degradation at laboratory batch scale at 35oc. fresh leachate had extremely high cod of 66,710 – 89,501 mg/l along with low ph of 4.1-5.9 in contrast to older and therefore partially stabilized leachate with a cod of about ...

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...
