nano-cus powders were synthesized with chemical solution method. xrd and sem and spectrophotometry were used for characterization of the cus powders. xrd analysis indicated that tetragonal cus was the main phase with particle size of 16.2nm and little cu2s phase was present. scanning electron microscopy (sem) analysis revealed that powder was plate like and had very little aspect ratio in morph...

removal of thiosulfate (s2o32-, 200 mg/l) from simulated wastewater samples was investigated under varying co-pollutants and ph conditions employing the titanium dioxide (tio2) mediated photocatalysis. for thiosulfate only studies higher substrate removal was noted at lower ph with a specific trend of ph 4 > ph 7 > ph 10. furthermore, near complete thiosulfate removal was also achieved at ph 4....

Inexpensive copper catalysts enabled direct C-H chalcogenations at ambient temperature by means of photo-induced catalysis. The expedient copper catalysis set the stage for C-S and C-Se bond formation from readily accessible non-volatile elemental chalcogens. The photo-assisted copper catalysis manifold proved suitable for a wide range of substrates with good functional group tolerance and exhi...

The increasing rate of water and air pollution dramatically impacts natural ecosystems human health causing depletion biodiversity, climate changes, spreading respiratory diseases, and, as a consequence, negatively impacting the world economy [...]

 Nowadays, underground water is the main source of drinking water that contamination to organic pollutants such as MTBE is an important issue. One of the suitable methods for these types of pollutants is the advanced oxidation methods. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are involved in the production of highly reactive hydroxyl radicals that oxidize organic matter such as MTBE and even le...

Background & Aims of the Study: Azo dyes are employed in industrial processes such as textile industry to create large quantities of colored sewages that have organic and non-organic materials. So, remediation of them is essential. In this project, degradation and mineralization of Acid red 14 (AR14) that is a mono Azo dye and widely used in the textile industries was investi...
