Background & Aims of the Study:  Soil and water pollution to heavy metals is a serious threat for environment and human health. Finding an effective way for refining water from these metals is very important. The aim of this study was modifying electrospun polymeric nano fibers and studying its efficiency for copper ion omission in water solutions. Materials & Method...

A PVC ion-selective membrane electrode based on Cd-tetraphenyl porphyrine as a carrier was prepared fordetermination of MnO4- ion. This electrode revealed good selectivity toward permanganate ion over a widevariety of anions. Effects of some experimental parameters such as nature of the plasticizer, the amounts ofcarrier and additive, and concentration of the internal solution on the potential ...

in this study, polystyrene ethylene butylene polystyrene (psebs) was functionalized to prepare mono and bipolar ion exchange membranes. in the case of the bipolar membrane, platinum was used as the intermediate layer. nacl solution of concentration ranging from 5 g/l to 25 g/l was used as the feed solution. a commercially procured ion exchange membrane made of polystyrene divinyl benzene was al...

a thermodynamic study on the interaction between zinc ion (zn2+) and human growth hormone(hgh) was studied at two temperatures of 27c and 37c in aqueous solution using an isothermal titrationcalorimetry. it was found that there is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for zn2+ ions. the intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 1.54...

adsorption and desorption behavior of gd(iii) ionon macroporous weak acid resin (mwar) had been investigated.the influence of operational conditions such as contact time, initial concentration of gd(iii) ion, initial ph of solution and temperature on the adsorption of gd(iii) ion had been examined. experimental data were exploited for kinetic and thermodynamic evaluations related to the adsorpt...

use of wastewater treatment methods in aquaculture is one of the main ways for decreasing the environmental effects of this industry and applies the best management practices (bmps). anionic compounds are the main pollutants in recirculation aquaculture systems. ion exchangers such as clays are vastly applied in waste water industry but in aquaculture systems at yet there isn't any report ...

classical trajectory (monte carlo) calculation is used to calculate collision rate constants of ion-quadrupolar molecule interactions for the h¯+c2h2 system. the method presented here takes into account the effect of the induced dipole-induced dipole potential on ion-quadrupolar molecule collision rate constants. it is also assumed that the colliding particles have a definite size. the thermal ...

vapor-liquid equilibrium in nh3-co2-h2o system at high pressures has been studied. the uniquac-nrf model for this system was extended by using the goppert 4 maurer reported datas. since the system contains molecules and ionic species the binary interaction parameters considered, where those are of molecule-molecule, molecule-ion and ion-ion types. these interaction parameters are taken as const...

photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide to formaldehyde was investigated on four semiconductor photocatalysts (fes, fes/fes2, nio and tio2). the reaction was carried out in continues flow of co2 gas bubbled into the reactor. semiconductor photocatalysts were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and diffuse reflectance spectroscopic (drs) methods. sulfide ion was used as hole scavenger. t...
