INTRODUCTION Phenol and its derivatives are the most common poisonous compounds which are stable in aqueous media and lead to many health issues. In this study, application of the carbon resulted from pomegranate peel is investigated in removal of phenol by adsorption method. METHODS to perform this cross-sectional study, first, samples of phenol with concentrations of 10 to 100 mg/L were pre...

Nano-dispersed Fe and Fe3O4 on reduced graphene oxide (Fe /Fe3O4-RGO) was prepared and characterized. The prepared Fe/Fe3O4-RGO was used as a magnetically separable Fenton-like catalyst and showed superior catalytic activity compared to Fe3O4-RGO and Fe3O4 as well as other Fenton-like catalysts for the removal of phenol. The Fe/Fe3O4-RGO achieved 100% removal efficiency for phenol within 30 min...

Phenolic compounds are widely used in industries and other daily life for various purposes and enter in the industrial effluent and ultimately the final disposal of this effluent which contain phenol compounds are different water bodies which may get contaminated through the continuous disposal of the these effluents. Highly toxicity and carcinogenicity of these compounds can cause considerable...

BACKGROUND Phenol is one of the most versatile and important organic compound. It is also a growing concern as water pollutants due to its high persistence and toxicity. Removal of Phenol from wastewaters was investigated using a novel nanoparticle adsorption and nanofiltration technique named as Nanoparticle Assisted Nano Filtration (NANF). METHODS The nanoparticle used for NANF study were s...

Introduction Phenol and its derivatives are present in various industrial effluents and possess a high level of toxicity even at minute concentrations. This could cause serious ecological problems if phenol-containing effluents are discharged untreated or partially treated into water bodies or land sites. Method Conventional wastewater phenol removal methods, which include biological treatment,...

The present study analyses the potential of acid treated chitosan for simultaneous co-adsorptive removal of phenol and cyanide from a binary waste water solution. The effects of parameters like pH, temperature, initial concentration, adsorbent dose, and adsorbent size were studied. At an optimum pH of 8, temperature of 300C, initial phenol and cyanide concentration of 200 mg/L and 20 mg/L respe...

Optimization of sample pre-treatment. Complete removal of cellular and further solid sample constituents, precipitation and removal of proteins, precipitation and removal of cholesterol from the blood sample and quantitative extraction of the analytes tryptophan, phenol, p-cresol and cholic acid in the diluted blood plasma phase. Step III: Combination and conversion of both isocratic HPLC/DAD/M...
