this study investigates the degradation of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (sdbs) in aqueous solution by the fenton-like oxidation process. the effects of different parameters such as concentrations of ferric chloride and hydrogen peroxide, ph and reaction time on the sdbs removal and chemical oxygen demand (cod) reduction were evaluated. response surface methodology (rsm) with central composite...

Photocatalytic method was used as an efficient and simple way for degradation of tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP). In contrast to other methods, in this method the mineralization occurs and no twin pollution is generated. Nd doped TiO2 was synthesized via sol gel process and characterized by XRD and TEM tecniuqes. Then it was used as photocatalyst for TBP degradetion. It was found that the solution ...

Photoreactivity of cadmium sulfide nanoparticles as undoped and doped with manganese, nickel and copper were studied in the decolorization of methylene blue and safranin under UV and Vis irradiations. The dopant, mole fraction of dopant to cadmium ion, pH of solution, dosage of photocatalyst and concentration of dye are variables that influence on the photoreactivity of nanocatalysts. In among ...

In this study, Zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by gel-combustion method using a novel bio-fuel tapioca starch pearls, derived from the tubers of Mannihot esculenta, to investigate the photocatalytic degradation of ccaffeine. The ZnO photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and UV-visible spectroscopy. X-ray diffractometry result f...

This paper examines some relationships between important design parameters in large combiner systems and key performance objectives such as power, efficiency, noise, and graceful degradation. Results are derived for the combining efficiency of general combiner systems, and used to contrast spatial and corporate combiners and identify optimum combiner topology for a given device technology. The ...
