almcm-41 was applied for adsorption of methylene blue (mb) and auramine (au) in single and binary component systems. in the single component systems, almcm-41 represents higher adsorption capacity for mb than au with the maximal adsorption capacity of 2.07×10−4 and 1.15×10−4 mol/g at 25 ˚c for mb and au, respectively. in the binary component system, mb and au exhibit competitive adsorption onto...

Applications of animal manures have increased soil test P values in many parts of the USA and thus increased the risk that soil P will be transferred to surface water and decrease water quality. To continue farming these areas, landowners need tools to reduce the risk of P losses. A field experiment was conducted near Kurten, TX, on a Zulch fine sandy loam (thermic Udertic Paleustalfs) with Bra...

The excessive application of manure on cropland areas can cause nutrients to accumulate near the soil surface and increase nutrient transport by overland flow. Inverting soils with high surface nutrient content could reduce runoff nutrient transport. This study was conducted to measure the effects of moldboard plowing on the redistribution of nutrients within the soil profile and nutrient trans...

conclusions these outcomes support our theory that rapamycin increases oxidative stress in mcf-7 and mda mb-231 cells but also shows high levels of antioxidant effects, which probably limit the effects of the rapamycin on the same issue in the clinic. methods the mcf-7 and mda mb-231 cell lines were cultivated and treated with rapamycin for 72 hours. the viability of the cells was determined us...

The treatment of dye-bearing wastes by adsorption using low-cost synthetic adsorbents is urgently needed and challenging because it offers the dual benefit water waste management. Herein, flower-like MoS2/g-C3N4 nanocomposites with a size range 200–400 nm specific surface area 70.656 m2/g were synthesized as new methylene blue (MB) adsorbent materials. Their mechanisms influences pH, dosage, co...

Activated carbon from rice husk ash (AC-RH) and hazelnut husks (AC-HH) modified by Diopside (AC-RH/Diop, AC-HH/Diop) composites were synthesised applied for the adsorption of Copper Methylene blue industrial effluents. was provided sol-gel method activated prepared husks. The formation AC/Diop characterised FT-IR, FESEM, BET, XRD analyses. Effects pH, amount adsorbent, contact time at 10 mg L−1...

The present study reports, the synthesis of ZnO-bentonite nanocomposite by the incorporation of ZnO with bentonite clay. The nanocomposite was characterised by XRD and SEM. ZnO-bentonite was effectively used for removal of Methylene Blue (MB). Removal of MB takes place by photocatalytic degradation and adsorption. Photocatalytic degradation of MB occurs by advanced oxidation process. The factor...
