in the past, mining activities have generated major acid drainage sources, which usually carry dissolved metals that flow into the main rivers of the affected basins. the study looks at natural attenuation processes in local, sub-basin and basin areas, in the el bierzo and odiel basins of spain, where coal and metal mining activities were formerly conducted. in this study, sampling and in situ ...

Effective conversion of lignocellulosic material as renewable energy source has significant reflection on economic and environmental impact. Diluted acid hydrolysis at optimal condition was used to liberate fermentable sugar. The sorghum stalks, the alkali pretreatment of biomass and hydrolysis in diluted hydrochloric acid were investigated. The hydrolysis reaction was carried out in a 5L react...

The extraction method is critical for the recovery of phenolic compounds. The main goal was to evaluate the effect of an extraction process from mango seed on their phenolic profile, antioxidant and antimicrobial capacities. Phenolic extraction was performed in different steps: maceration, alkaline hydrolysis, acid/alkaline hydrolysis, polar and non-polar fraction of an ethyl acetate separation...

pectin is used as gelatinizing agent in food industry. in this study pectin was extracted from five commercial sugar beet varieties namely: doroty, rasul, 7112, br1 and ic using pre-hydrolysis technique. experiments were conducted using factorial design to verify the effect of temperature, time, percentage of hcl and water requirements on the extraction rate of pectin. the qualitative factors o...

Meldrum's acid, 2'5-diphenyl-1'3-dioxane-4'6-dione, was produced by [2+2] cycloadditions of the (chlorocarbony1)phenylketene with benzaldehyde. Acid hydrolysis of the meldrum's acid regenerated benzaldehyde and also yielded phenylacetic acid as the final product

Palm oil solid wastes consist of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. In this study, a single stage of acid hydrolysis process of palm oil empty fruit bunch (EFB) for production of fermentable sugar was carried out under moderate temperature (45°C) and ambient pressure. The effect of four different process variables such as solid size, HCl concentration, solid percentage and temperature were in...

meldrum's acid, 2'5-diphenyl-1'3-dioxane-4'6-dione, was produced by [2+2] cycloadditions of the (chlorocarbony1)phenylketene with benzaldehyde. acid hydrolysis of the meldrum's acid regenerated benzaldehyde and also yielded phenylacetic acid as the final product

new biodegradable network polymers containing siloxane-linked polymeric prodrugs of 5-ammino-2-hydroxybenzoic acid (5-asa) in the main chain were prepared by ter polymerization of methacrylic acid (ma), 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (hema), and bis (trimethylsilyloxy) methylsilane (vbm) in the presence of some new cross-linking agents.the monomers and polymers were characterized by ft-ir and 1h-nm...

Present paper examines the effect of acid type and hydrolysis conditions on morphology, size, yield and crystallinity of produced cellulose nanocrystal (CNC). Cellulose obtained from waste office paper was hydrolyzed under the same conditions by Maleic acid (MA) and Sulfuric Acid (SA) in separate treatments.  Also this cellulose was hydrolyzed under different timing and temperature by MA and SA...
