background: despite their simplicity and the low-cost, the conventional non-contact uv systems have low efficiency in water disinfection. the purpose of this study was to examine the possibility of upgrading these systems by some modifications in order to maximize the water contact with the uv radiation and as a result a better disinfection.    methods: in this study, two enhanced models of non...

background : the main objective of this research was to study photocatalytic oxidation of phenol in aquatic solutions by using of uv, tio 2 and the combination of them. phenol compounds are widely used in industries and other daily life. highly toxicity and carcinogenicity of these compounds can causal considerable adverse effects on the aquatic ecosystems and human health. methods : the study ...

the color removal of three reactive dyes in an aquatic system without priortreatment was studied. selected commercial dyes were treated with nac102 anduv as oxidation agents. effects of nature of oxidant, temperature, ph ofsolutions, concentration of c107—, contact time of c102— and uv irradiation wereinvestigated. optimal c102— concentration for color removal in the absence of uvirradiation wa...

background: the goal was to upgrade and/or uprate the traditional non-contact array by producing few modifications in the configuration of this model in order to maximize light receiving of water from the uv lamp and a better disinfection.  methods: an innovative non-contact model was made with a design based on irradiation of water, which was flowing as two thin waterfalls around a uv lamp in ...

BACKGROUND The main objective of this research was to study photocatalytic oxidation of phenol in aquatic solutions by using of UV, TiO2 and the combination of them. Phenol compounds are widely used in industries and other daily life. Highly toxicity and carcinogenicity of these compounds can causal considerable adverse effects on the aquatic ecosystems and human health. METHODS The study was...

UV response of ZnO nanowire nanosensor has been studied under ambient condition. By utilizing Schottky contact instead of Ohmic contact in device fabrication, the UV sensitivity of the nanosensor has been improved by four orders of magnitude, and the reset time has been drastically reduced from approximately 417 to approximately 0.8 s. By further surface functionalization with function polymers...

This paper reports the development of a low-cost, portable, light-emitting diode (LED)-based UV exposure system for photolithography. The major system components include UV-LEDs, microcontroller, digital-to-analog (D/A) converter and LED control circuitry. The UV-LED lithography system is also equipped with a digital user interface (LCD and keypad) and permits accurate electronic control on the...
