in this work some quantitative structure activity relationship models were developed for prediction of three bioenvironmental parameters of 28 volatile organic compounds, which are used in assessing the behavior of pollutants in soil. these parameters are; half-life, non dimensional effective degradation rate constant and effective péclet number in two type of soil. the most effective descripto...

In this paper, polyacrylonitrile PAN - titania TiO2 electrospun nanofiber PAN/TiO2 nanofiber was prepared via a facile electrospinning method. The characteristics of the PAN/TiO2 nanofiber were investigated using SEM and FTIR. The nanofiber showed retained nanofiber structures and high photocatalytic efficiency under UV light for the degradation of Direct Red 80 DR80 and Direct Red 23 DR23 in w...

Phenol and its derivatives are one of the most common contaminants in the aquatic ecosystem. Because of high toxicity of 2,4-DCP for aquatic life, resistance to biodegradation and potential for biological accumulation it is known as a priority contaminant in the aquatic environment. Advanced Oxidation Processes were successfully used for degradation of non-biodegradable contaminants that are re...

introduction: advanced oxidation processes (aops) suggest a highly reactive, nonspecific oxidant namely hydroxyl radical (oh•), that oxidize a wide range of pollutants fast and non-selective in wastewater and water. materials and methods: in this work, the nitrogen-doped titanium dioxide nanoparticles were primed by sol-gel method, characterized by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron micros...

degradation of o,o-dimethyl -o-4-nitrophenylphosphorothioate (methylparathion) by ozonation in aqueous solution was studied in a batch reactor under constant ozone dosage and variable ph conditions. the effectiveness of the process was estimated based on the degree of cod (chemical oxygen demand) reduction and conversion of methylparathion. it was observed that ozonation is more effective at a...

This research describes photo degradation of direct red 81(5-solamin) in the presence of zinc oxide nano-sized catalyst supported on granule glass under UV light irradiation. The effects of some parameters such as various pH and different atmosphere on photo degradation efficiency were studied. After various experiments it was revealed that among various atmospheres, at neutural medium, oxygen ...

conclusions the present research demonstrated that the ultrasonic (us) process can be utilized as an effective and simple method for treatment of mg dye in an aqueous solution. moreover, the eeo is directly proportional to the mg concentration and power density and inversely proportional to temperature and mechanical agitation, which can be predicted by the obtained empirical kinetics model. co...

Iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticles were prepared by combination of sol-gel autocombustion and ultrasonic irradiation. The XRD pattern reveals that the crystallite size of sample is 36.7 nm and the phase identification shows hematite, syn has been crystalized. The morphology of the sample investigated by FESEM showed that particle size of the sample was about 76 nm. The optic...
