powder activated carbon surface (ac) was grinded and modified and altered procedure thorough a facile and easy chemical reaction to appearance of 2-((3silylpropylimino)1-methyl) phenol (ac- (spimp)). subsequently, this novel sorbent efficiently applied for the extraction and preconcentration of some metal ions from real samples. preliminary the influences of variables such as ph, amounts of rea...

this study focus on the preparation of two supports including activated carbon derived from medlar and palladium nanoparticles loaded on activated carbon (pd-np-ac). subsequently, both adsorbent modified with a novel schiff base chelating agent and their potential applicability for determination of trace amounts of metal ions from aqueous solution has been investigated. the method is based on c...

The extraction-separation of lanthanum and europium ions with bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (DEHPA) in cyclohexane was improved by adding 12-crown-4 (12C4) to the aqueous phase as a masking agent. In the presence of this crown ether the extraction curve of lanthanum ions versus pH shifts to the higher pH region, while the curve is not influenced for the europium ions. Consequently the s...

artificial neural networks (anns) are computer techniques that attempt to simulate the functionality and decision-making processes of the human brain. in the past few decades, artificial neural networks (anns) have been extensively used in a wide range of engineering applications. there are only a few applications in liquid membrane process. the objective of this research was to develop artific...

Recently, the solid phase extraction technology has received considerable attention considering serious environmental problems and much more contaminants present in the samples at trace level that is different to be analyzed. During the whole process of analyzing sample, the preconcentration of sample is the most complicated and significant step, which typically spend much time, affecting the a...

dissolved nitrogen predispersed solvent extraction (dnpdse) is a new method devised for improving the performance of equipment utilized in the solvent extraction (sx) method, especially for dilute solutions. in this method, for mixing the two phases, bubble dispersion of the organic phase (colloidal gas aphrons [cgas]) is used instead of its drop dispersion in the aqueous phase. through increas...
