in this study, in order to constitute polyelectrolyte multilayers (pem) using layer-by-layer nanotechnology, recycled fibers were subsequently treated with cationic starch (cs) and anionic starch (as) multi-layers each layer conducted at neutral ph for 10 minutes. also, to compare with mechanical of refining, the pulp was refined for 25 minutes to the freeness of about 291 ml.csf using valley b...

in the present study, micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (meuf) was used to remove manganese (mn) (ii) from synthetic wastewater. the effects of different operational conditions on the filtration performance of meuf or the membrane were studied. it was found that the transmembrane pressure has a major influence on the permeate flux and an insignificant effect on the rejection coefficient. the pe...

Turfgrass nutrient uptake may be differentially affected by different salts. The objective of this study was to compare nutrient uptake in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) as affected by carbonate, chloride, and sulfate under iso-osmotic, iso-Na+ strength conditions. 'Tar Heel II' and 'Wolfpack' cultivars were subjected to NaCl, Na2CO3, Na2SO4, CaCl2, NaCl+ CaCl2, Na2CO3+ CaCl2, and Na...

Samples with the composition Ce0.9Gd0.1MnxO2−δ with x = 0.01, 0.02, and 0.05 Mn-addition were prepared by mixed oxide route from Ce0.9Gd0.1O2−δ and MnO2 and sintered at 1300 ◦C. The electronic conductivity was measured using a modified Hebb-Wagner technique, the electrical conductivity was investigated by impedance spectroscopy, and oxygen permeation was measured for the sample with x = 0.05. A...

salt stress negatively impacts crops yield throughout the world. nine varieties of potato (solanum tuberosum l.) were screened for salt stress tolerance by measuring in-vitro growth of the aerial plant parts, as well as roots. salt stress was evaluated by adding 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150 and 200 mm of nacl to murashige- skoog (ms) medium and compared to ms medium without nacl. plant length and ...

Sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) are a promising technology for a viable source of energy. This technology is faced with many challenges, such as limited mass transfer and low electricity generation. The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of electrolyte conductivity and aeration effect on power generation from SMFCs. Electrical conductivity was adjusted at 6different levels...

Conductivity of molten alkali metal chlorides is the foundation molten-salt electrolysis process. In study, equilibrium molecular dynamics was performed to investigate ionic conductivities chloride binary systems. The calculated values were in good agreement with experimental results. Simple databases for conductivity have been built based on verified algorithm. Mathematic expressions vs. tempe...

in this study, salinity tolerance of 51 kabuli chickpea genotypes was investigated at vegetative growth phase using 4.5 and 6.5 ds/m salt solution (by adding nacl to 1/2 hoagland solution) and 1/2 hoagland solution (ec= 1.7 ds/m) as control treatment. a split plot design was used in this experiment where the main plot was salinity treatments and the sub plot was genotypes. treatments continued ...
