Present study was carried out to evaluate the feasibility of conventional rural based defluoridation technique Nalgonda technique, Activated alumina in urban areas. Nalgonda technique is being used extensively due to ease in construction of the reactor, operation & maintenance. This technique is very effective even when the fluoride concentration is above 20 mg/L. However, generation of acid or...

Disturbance in water relations is the major causes of vase life reduction and senescence in cut flowers This problem is mainly due to microorganism proliferation in the vase solution which leads to vascular occlusion and reduction in solution uptake by cut flowers. Therefore a comprehensive study was conducted to evaluate the biocidal effect of nano silver particles (NSP) and compare it with so...

The current estimates and glass formulation efforts have been conservative in terms of achievable waste loadings. These formulations have been specified to ensure that the glasses are homogenous, contain essentially no crystalline phases, are processable in joule-heated, ceramic-lined melters and meet Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) Contract terms. The WTP’s overall ...

The use of aluminum sulphate in clarifying raw waters raises many concerns about its impact on human health. Thus, the present study was initiated to compare effects Moringa oleifera and besides evaluating association between M. or with Opuntia ficus-indica syntofloc for water treatment. essays were carried Jar Test using 352.80 Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU). monitoring different physico-...

Aim: Aluminum is one of the elements that widely used in many sectors and most abundant element nature. The harm aluminum, which was thought to be harmless until recently actively daily life, open discussion. In this study, it aimed investigate effect Sulphate [Al2(SO4)3] on Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PDH) activity, a key enzyme catalyzes first step pentose phosphate pathway (PFP). ad...

Biomedical applications ranging from tissue engineering to drug delivery systems require versatile biomaterials based on the scalable and tunable production of biopolymer nanofibers under physiological conditions. These requirements can be successfully met by a novel extrusion process through nanoporous aluminum oxide templates, which is presented in this study. With this simple method we are a...

A common step in most of water treatment plants is the chemical coagulation. The chemical coagulation is the process of destabilizing the colloidal particles suspended in raw water by the addition of coagulants. Generally, the determination of the quantity of coagulant to be added to water is made manually by jar tests. However, the manual control has slow response to changes of raw water and i...
