An indirect, sensitive and accurate method for the determination of trace amounts of hydrazine is described. In this proposed the spectrophotometric method is based on its reduction properties of hydrazine with a known concentration of potassium permanganate to reduce the colour. The absorbance of unreduced permanganate is measured the colour difference at different wavelengths 546 and 526 nm w...

A Simple Water Extraction Apparatus with Pollutant Shielding (SWEAPS) can extract clean water from polluted sources and ambient air.

background: there are great interests in photocatalytic oxidation of contaminants using titanium dioxide in recent years. the main objective of this research was to study photocatalytic disinfection of coliform bacteria as water microbial pollution index using tio2 and a low pressure uv lamp in a batch reactor. methods: the polluted water was prepared by adding a colony of coliform in raw water...

Heavy metals and hydrocarbons are of the most common marine pollutants around the world. The present study aimed to assess the concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals in tissues of the snail cyclope neritea, water and sediments from two sites of the study area (Temsah lake and Suez canal) represent polluted and unpolluted sites respectively. The results showed that, the levels ...

River water is a very important natural resource of water for meeting the requirements of various sectors in the world and for this reason cannot be looked upon in isolation [1]. The Hasdeo River is second largest tributary of the Mahanadi River system in East Central India. Hasdeo River in Chhattisgarh is influenced by the various problems imparted by excessive industrialization, urbanization ...

Supplying good quality of drinking water is a challenging task during the rainy season and floods. During this period water becomes highly polluted with suspended solids which increase the water turbidity. Alum is used to reduce the turbidity of the water. Typically in water treatment plants alum dosage is decided by the Jar test and the desired alum dosage is added manually. This research prop...
