Background & objectives: The organic dyes are environmental pollutants that pour into water sources by industrial wastewater. It is necessary to develop effective methods for removing pollutants. The aim of this study was to evaluate photocatalytic efficiency of bare ZnO nanoparticles doped with Mg and La (1 to 6% by weight) and Mg 5% -La 5% / ZnO and Mg6%-La4% / ZnO nanoparticles in the remova...

in this work, zno/sio2 nanoparticles were prepared using sol-gel method, and platinum particles were loaded on zno/sio2 nanoparticles by photoreductive method. samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir). the xrd patterns showed that the zinc oxide samples have a wurtzite structure (hexagonal phase...

This study aimed to investigate the effect of Rhodamine B exposure on oxidative stress and cervical epithelial cells proliferation in the uterus. Twenty eight female Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups (n = 7 each): one control (untreated) group; and three Rhodamine B groups at several doses (4.5, 9, 18 mg/200 g body weight/day) for 36 days. Colometric analysis of malondialdehyde (...

tungsten trioxide nanoparticles with two different sizes (average particle sizes about 50 and 80 nm) were prepared by the spray pyrolysis method. photo degradation of congo red (azo dye) showed that photo catalytic property of the as-prepared wo3 nanoparticles with average size about 80 nm is higher than the sample with average size about 50 nm. photo degradation of rhodamine b (cationic triary...

graphene, a new member of the carbon family, was used as an adsorbent due to its exceptional capability to remove rhodamine b (rb) and malachite green (mg), two organic dyes, from aqueous solutions. adsorption kinetics of rb and mg onto graphene and adsorption capacity of the adsorbent were studied. also the effects of parameters, including ph, contact time, temperature, and adsorbent dosage we...
