The five major reductive degradation products of TNT-4ADNT (4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene), 2ADNT (2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene), 2,4DANT (2,4-diamino-6-nitrotoluene), 2,6DANT (2,6-diamino-4-nitrotoluene), and TAT (2,4,6-triaminotoluene)-labeled with 15N in the amine positions, were reacted with the IHSS soil humic acid and analyzed by 15N NMR spectrometry. In the absence of catalysts, all five amin...

The sorption properties of tetracycline were compared between a coal humic acid (CHA) and a soil humic acid (SHA) under various solution chemistry conditions. Structural characteristics of the two humic acids were quantified in detail by elemental analysis, solid-state (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), acid-base titration, and Zeta potential measurement. The CHA consists primarily of poly...

Remediating soils with heavy metals contamination is a significant challenge. This study investigated the co-remediation effect when paired soil amendment mixtures were used to treat soil contaminated by Pb, Cd, and Zn. The three mixed amendments are: 1) micro particle hydroxyapatite (mHAP) and humic acid 2) nano particle hydroxyapatite (nHAP) and humic acid 3) sepiolite and humic acid. Co-reme...

this experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012 at university of zabol. experimental treatments included phosphorus fertilizer at three levels of 0, 100 and 200 kg.ha-1 as the first factor and foliar humic acid at four levels of 0, 750, 1500, 2250 g.1000 l water as the second factor. results showed phosphorus treatment had significant effect on ...

background: natural organic matter is the cause of many problems associated with water treatment such as the presence of disinfection by-products (dbps) and membrane fouling during water filtration. in this study, the performance of the peroxi-electrocoagulation process (pep) was investigated for the removal of humic acids (has) from aqueous solutions. methods: pep was carried out for the remov...

Heterogeneous uptake of methylamine (MA), dimethylamine (DMA), and trimethylamine (TMA) onto citric acid and humic acid was investigated using a Knudsen cell reactor coupled to a quadrupole mass spectrometer at 298 K. Acid-base reactions between amines and carboxylic acids were confirmed. The observed uptake coefficients of MA, DMA, and TMA on citric acid at 298 K were measured to be 7.31 ± 1.1...

Soil salinity is one of the most important problems in dry and semi-dry climate areas of the world. So, we investigated the effects of humic acid on visual quality and quantity parameters of native turfgrasses in compared to commercial one under salinity stress to explore can we reduce salinity effects by humic acid or not? So, an experiment was arranged in factorial experiment based on randomi...

Interactions of purified Aldrich humic acid (PAHA) with lysozyme (LSZ) are investigated. In solution LSZ is moderately positively and PAHA negatively charged at the investigated pH values. The proton binding of PAHA and of LSZ is determined by potentiometric proton titrations at various KCl concentrations. It is also measured for two mixtures of PAHA–LSZ and compared with theoretically calculat...

the objective of this study is synthesis and characterization of the chitosan-silica composite (csc) and use them as an adsorbent material for peat water treatment. the resulting composite was characterizedby fourier transform infrared (ftir) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (sem), x-ray diffraction(xrd), n2 adsorption-desorption isotherm and zeta potential. the sorption experiments w...
