one of the most important concerns in tehran municipal landfill is the production of leachate and its potential for water resources pollution, this study was undertaken to examine feasibility of biological and physico/chemical treating of high-strength landfill leachate that was collected from tehran municipal landfill. average cod of the leachate in aerobic submerged membrane bioreactor is 68...

a simple, inexpensive and efficient method was used for extraction and determination of fexofenadine and levocetirizine with three–phase hollow fiber liquid-phase microextraction and high-performance liquid chromatography. several parameters influencing the extraction recoveries such as the nature of organic extraction solvent, ph of donor and acceptor phases, stirring rate, extraction time and...

anew and effective electrospinning method has been developed for producing aligned polymer nanofibers. the conventional electrospinning technique has been modified to fabricate nanofibers as uniaxially aligned array. the key to the success of this technique is the creation of a rotating jet by using a cylindrical collector in which the needle tip is located at its center. the unique advantage o...

Hydrophilic polyethersulfone (PES) hollow fiber membranes were prepared via non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) by addition of polymeric additives as a membrane modifying agent. The effect of the addition of hydrophilic surfactant Pluronic F127, Polyivinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and Tetronic 1307 on the performance of the final PES hollow-fiber membrane was investigated. The morphology of fa...

In this study, the influence of the salts as an additive on the performance of the membrane was investigated and an extensive work was performed to optimize PVDF hollow fiber membranes through a response surface methodology (RSM). The prepared membranes were characterized by SEM, contact angle and LEP measurement. Then, the RSM was used for the optimization of surface pore size, porosity and hy...

For the first time, a ZIF-8 membrane was grown on the inner surface of a ceramic hollow fiber via cycling precursors. The inner-side hollow fiber ZIF-8 membrane exhibits good performance for recovering hydrogen.

in this study, the influence of the salts as an additive on the performance of the membrane was investigated and an extensive work was performed to optimize pvdf hollow fiber membranes through a response surface methodology (rsm). the prepared membranes were characterized by sem, contact angle and lep measurement. then, the rsm was used for the optimization of surface pore size, porosity and hy...

The use of thulium fiber laser (TFL) as a potential alternative laser lithotripter to the clinical holmium:YAG laser is being studied. The TFL's Gaussian spatial beam profile provides efficient coupling of higher laser power into smaller core fibers without proximal fiber tip degradation. Smaller fiber diameters are more desirable, because they free up space in the single working channel of the...

Removal of endocrine disrupting compound (viz., bisphenol A, BPA) by laboratoryfabricated hollow fiber polyethersulfone (PES) nanofiltration (NF) membranes have been investigated. The tailor made charged PES hollow fiber NF membranes have been developed by blending negatively charged surface modifying macromolecule (cSMM). It is resulted more than 90% removal of BPA, mainly due to negatively ch...

Protein separation through hollow fiber flow field-flow fractionation (HF FlFFF) at microflow rate regime was successfully achieved by employing a microbore hollow fiber. In most of the flow field-flow fractionation (FlFFF) techniques applied to the separation of proteins, including hollow fiber FlFFF (HF FlFFF), an outflow rate leading to a detector has typically been a few tenths of a millili...
