Exfoliated graphitic nanoplatelets (xGnPs) have been utilized as a potential adsorbent for toxic textile dye Acid Orange 7 (acid dye). The effects of major variables governing the efficiency of the process, such as temperature, initial dye concentration and pH are studied. The kinetic measurements have been used for determining the specific rate constant, confirming the applicability of pseudo ...

backgrounds and aims: the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of potassium, sodium and zinc metal ions on ammonium sulfate fraction of acid phosphatase activity of orange fruit. materials and methods: acid phosphatase was extracted and purified from orange fruit and then various samples as well as a control sample were prepared in vitro. in addition to substrates, ions of potassium...

the main theme to conduct present research work was to evaluate the effect of anaerobic granular sludge in degradation of two azo dyes. the study was evaluated in batch experiments where anaerobic and aerobic conditions were integrated by exposing anaerobic granular sludge to oxygen. under these conditions, the azo dyes were reduced, resulting in a temporal accumulation of aromatic amines. subs...

in the present study, advanced oxidation treatment, uv/ was applied to decolourisation of acid orange 8 (ao8). the uv radiation was carried out with a 15 w low-pressure mercury lamp. kinetic model for the decolourisation of the dye was developed based on experimental results and known chemical and photochemical reactions. the observed kinetic reaction constant was determined and correlated as a...

In the present study, activated bleaching earth was used as clay adsorbent for an investigation of the adsorbability and adsorption kinetics of acid dyes (i.e., acid orange 51, acid blue 9, and acid orange 10) with three different molecular sizes from aqueous solution at 25 degrees C in a batch adsorber. The rate of adsorption has been investigated under the most important process parameters (i...

The total acidity of orange juice is ordinarily determined by titrating a known volume of juice with a standard solution of NaOH, with phenolphthalein as indicator, the result beinog expressed as citric acid. This value includes all the substanees of an acidic nature in the juice that react with NaOH. It so happens, however, that in most fruits the chief substances reacting with NaOH are the or...
