TiO2 nanoparticles, a semiconductor photocatalyst is widely used in various applications especially for water treatment. The common problems the application are separating nanoparticles from body and recovering it to be reused. This research was conducted investigate aggregation sedimentation properties of via chemical addition. experiment carried out 5 hours by varying pH, ionic strength, addi...

The phase behaviour of colloidal dispersions is interesting for fundamental reasons and for technological applications such as photonic crystals and electronic paper. Sedimentation, which in everyday life is relevant from blood analysis to the shelf life of paint, is a means to determine phase boundaries by observing distinct layers in samples that are in sedimentation-diffusion equilibrium. Ho...

Abstract The best exposed Early Miocene (820 m. thick. ) shales and interbedded silty sandstones beds of the Pyawbwe Formation at Sakangyi- Thayat area,Magway Region are investigated geochemically by using Siemens SRS- X Ray 303 AS XRF Spectrometer. Major and some trace element concentrations have been determined to achieve their provenance, tectonic setting ,paleoweathering , paleoclimate and ...

Increasing the hardness of natural waters requires introduction mitigation systems in offices and private homes apartments, where it is impossible to implement heating settling water, typical traditional technologies. The efficiency soda - lime softening water conditions low temperatures absence has been studied very little. Therefore, purpose this work was study features under different terms ...

The extraction behavior of thymus and the composition of fractions prepared from this organ has been studied. Sequential extraction methods using 0.15 M NaCl followed by water gave information with respect to the weight fraction of cytoplasmic and nuclear constituents. Lipide, nucleic acid, and electrophoretic analysis of the extracts provided additional information. A less complex electrophore...

Introduction Previous studies analysing the chemical composition of profundal sediments of Lake Constance suggest a overall large contribution of allochthonous material to total sedimentation but also a large spatial variability in the relative importance of allochthonous versus autochthonous sedimentation. Here we analyse sedimenting particulate organic matter (POMsed ) during an annual cycle ...

Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) is a versatile and powerful method for the quantitative analysis of macromolecules in solution. AUC has broad applications for the study of biomacromolecules in a wide range of solvents and over a wide range of solute concentrations. Three optical systems are available for the analytical ultracentrifuge (absorbance, interference, and fluorescence) that permi...

Radioactive fallout 137CS (cesium-137) deposited across the landscape from atmospheric nuclear tests is strongly absorbed on soil particles limiting its movement by chemical and biological processes. Most 137CS movement in the environment is by physical processes; therefore, 137CS is a unique tracer for studying erosion and sedimentation. Cesium-137 loss from a watershed has been shown to corre...
