BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to research the lesion outline and temperature field in different ways in atrial radiofrequency ablation by using finite element method. METHODS This study used the method which considered the thermal dosage to determine the boundary between viable and dead tissue, and compared to the 50 °C isotherm results in analyzing lesion outline. Besides, we used Hype...

Adsorption of Nickel(II) ion onto Activated Carbon prepared from Delonix regia pods activated with Zinc chloride (DRZAC) under various experimental conditions were studied. Batch mode adsorption experiments were conducted. The characteristics of the DRZAC were determined by SEM, XRD, FTIR, BET analysis and pHZPC. The maximum removal efficiency of Ni(II) ion is 85% at pH 6. Under the chosen cond...

A low-cost activated carbon (XSBLAC) prepared from XanthocerasSorbifoliaBungehull via chemical activation was investigated to determine its adsorption and desorption properties for zinc(II) ions from aqueous solutions. XSBLAC was characterized based on its N₂-adsorption/desorption isotherm, EDX, XRD, SEM and FTIR results. An adsorption study was conducted in a series of experiments to optimize ...

Simultaneous removal of $${\text{Cr}}^{3+}$$ and acidic dye from model tannery wastewater was investigated using local nano-clay modified by 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride surfactant. X-ray fluorescence, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen sulfur analysis, Brunauer–Emmet–Teller analysis pH zero-point ...

In this study adsorption of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene (CNB) from aqueous solutions onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was surveyed. The effect of some key parameters such as pH (2-10), carbon nanotubes dosage (0.02-0.1 mg/250mL), CNB concentration (2- 16 mg/L), and temperature (20,30,40,50°C) were investigated. The results showed that, the variation of initial pH and CNB concentration ex...

After synthesizing Ag nanoparticles and loading onto activated carbon (from olive stone), the adsorption of methyl orange (MO) onto the prepared nanoparticles was studied. In this connection, the effect of experimental parameters such as pH range, reagent concentration, contact time, dosage amount of adsorbent and so on, on the adsorption process were studied. The experimental results were anal...

Adsorption of ammonia from anaerobic digester effluent by magnetically modified zeolite (MMZ) has been investigated using a batch technique and comparison of adsorption isotherm equations. Adsorption isotherm models were utilized to describe the equilibrium isotherms and the isotherm constants were calculated. The sorption of ammonia follows Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) m...

Schiff base derived from the reaction of 2-amino phenol and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde its Co (II), Mn (II) complexes have been synthesized characterized by solubility test, melting point/ decomposition temperatures, molar conductance, IR magnetic susceptibility. The number ligands coordinated to metal ion was determined using Job’s method continuous variation. Their conductance values indicate...
