The solidification/stabilization method was demonstrated to be an effective remediation technology for hazardous waste treatment. Three types of binding agents were tested in the present study view their potential use solidification contaminated sediments and soils – ordinary Portland cement (OPC), granulated ground blast furnace slag (GGBS) activated by OPC a Supersulfated (SSC) binders. An in...

Chemical structure of zinc in the electrokinetic treatments of an electroplating sludge has been studied by in situ extended X-ray absorption fine structural (EXAFS) and X-ray absorption near edge structural (XANES) spectroscopies in the present work. The least-square fitted XANES spectra indicate that the main zinc compounds in the sludge were ZnCO(3) (75%), ZnOSiO(2) (17%) and Zn(OH)(2) (7%)....

short timeframe, and rapid approaches are needed to assess log Pow values of these compounds (2,4,7). Several separation-based approaches for indirectly determining log Pow values in a rapid fashion have been reported, including reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (2,3,8–11), thin-layer chromatography (12,13), micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) (7,14–16), and...

photodegradation of dicamba, an ionizable herbicide, using tio2 supported on hzsm-11 zeolite was investigated. four photocatalysts with different weight percentages (wt%) of tio2 were evaluated: 3%, 10%, 30% and 50%. the effects of the catalyst concentration, the initial ph value and the repeatability of the photocatalytic activity after multiple cycles of reuse were also evaluated. results sho...

BACKGROUND Cognitive remediation (CR) is a psychological therapy, effective in improving cognitive performance and functioning in people with schizophrenia. As the therapy becomes more widely implemented within mental health services its longevity and uptake is likely to depend on its feasibility and acceptability to service users and clinicians. AIMS To assess the feasibility and acceptabili...

Remediation Therapy CRT is designed to improve memory and boost thinking power. Cognitive Remediation Therapy for Schizophrenia: Theory and Practice. Www.omh.state.ny.usomhwebcogdysmanualcogdyshndbk.pdf.Abstract. Purpose: Cognitive deficits in schizophrenia mainly affect memory, attention and executive functions. Cognitive remediation is a technique derived from.Cognitive remediation therapy ai...

BACKGROUND Cognitive deficits are a core feature of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders and are associated with decreased levels of functioning. Behavioural interventions have shown success in remediating these deficits; determining how best to maximise this benefit while minimising the cost is an important next step in optimising this intervention for clinical use. AIMS To examine ...

This present paper was focused on the manufacture of activated carbon (AC) and its application in the electrokinetic remediation (EKR) technology on removal of the heavy metals (HMs) from the municipal solid waste incineration fly ash. AC was produced from Neosinocalamus affinis (NF) by chemical activation with H3PO4 in N2 atmosphere, the effects of activation temperatures, soaking time and imp...

Innovative materials were made via the combination of chitin and lignin, and the immobilization of lipase from Aspergillus niger. Analysis by techniques including FTIR, XPS and 13C CP MAS NMR confirmed the effective immobilization of the enzyme on the surface of the composite support. The electrokinetic properties of the resulting systems were also determined. Results obtained from elemental an...
