manganese is one of the significant raw materials for various industries and most difficult element to remove from water because of its high solubility. the treatment of mn (ii) contained wastewater is stringent for environmental preservations. in the present study adsorption of mn2+ on zero-valent iron nanoparticles synthesized by chemical reduction process and modified with phosphate coating ...

a microporous bisphenol a diglycidyl ether (dgeba) epoxified-polyethersulfone (pes) blend membrane (epes membrane) was prepared through dry-wet phase inversion. this study attempts to correlate the changes in membrane physical and chemical properties when the epes membranes were exposed to different durations of dry-phase inversion, towards the separation efficiency of carcinogen chromium (vi)....

duckweeds are of special interest, as they are naturally growing weeds that have the capacity to tolerate and remove toxic pollutants, including heavy metals from the environment. studies have revealed that duckweed (lemna minor) can tolerate and remove heavy metals from aqueous solutions. in the present study, the efficiency of l. minor in the removal of ni and cr individually from aqueous sol...

Two sensors, 1 with a spirolactone group and 2 with a spirolactam group containing a phenyl isothiocyanate moiety, based on rhodol, were designed and synthesized in order to obtain materials with excellent optical properties for the detection of environmentally and biologically important Hg2+ and hypochlorous acid (HClO) ions. The crystal structure of 1 revealed two moieties, a rhodamine-like p...

background: the presence of even a very small quantity of dye in water bodies is undesirable and affects the water bodies. dye removal from industrial waste water is significant; hence in this study, a material that is an economical waste product was employed to test its acid dye removing capacity from aqueous solution. methods: in this study, batch mode experiments were performed in the sorpti...

horseradish peroxidase was encapsulated in calcium alginate for the purpose of phenol removal. considering enzyme encapsulation efficiency, retention activity and enzyme leakage of the capsules, the best gelation condition was found to be 1 % w/v of sodium alginate solution and 5.5 % w/v of calcium chloride hexahydrate. upon immobilization, ph profile of enzyme activity changes as it shows high...

this paper presents the development of a model for evaluating adsorbable organic halogens’(aox) removal efficiency during wastewater treatment by using the micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (meuf)technique. surfactants can form larger aggregates (micelles) were prepared into which aoxs dissolve and arethen retained by the membrane. synthetic wastewater samples containing certain concentrations ...

background: contamination of water with arsenic has attracted the researchers’ attention as a global problem in recent years and has been observed in some parts of iran. the purpose of this study is to assess the efficiency of welding iron waste in removing arsenic from aqueous solutions.   methods: in this study, the effects of different parameters, such as ph (3-9), initial concentration of a...

statement of problem: microleakage is the most important factor in composite restorations failure, resulting in marginal degradation, marginal staining, secondary caries and pulp damage. one of the factors that influence microleakage is the method of caries removal. convention rotary instrumentation generates smear layer on the dental surface, whereas chemo-mechanical caries removal increases s...
