background: one of the new methods for elimination or destruction of estrogen hormones is ultrasound irradiation. the aim of this study was to determine the main mechanism of steroid hormones removal by ultrasound. methods: in this study, estrogen (e1) and 17 beta-estradiol (e2) were irradiated with ultrasound at different frequencies, powers, and exposure times in two cases: with and without b...

Electrocoagulation (EC) is electrochemical water and wastewater treatment technology which in its simplest form uses an electrochemical cell where a dc voltage is applied to the electrodes, usually made of Iron or Aluminum, and the electrolyte is the water or wastewater. Current theory of EC has not been able to explain all the phenomena associated with the process, among others the differences...

magnetic abrasive finishing (maf) is a micromachining process that uses magnetic field and magnetic abrasive particles to conduct the mechanism of material removal in micro-nanometer scales. in this paper, by an experimental method and statistical analysis, the effects of parameters like working gap, work-piece rotational speed and material removal mechanism (injection of abrasive slurry of al2...

New bacteria that was provided from contaminated soils surrounding the coal, aluminum, salt mines and wetland separated, synthesized and characterized. The achievements show that this soils and waters have five disposed bacteria consist of Microbacterium SP, Micrococcaceae Bacterium, Planomicrobium SP, Brevndimonas Aurantiaca and Halomonas SP. Secondly, the result of the potential of remova...

in this study, the blast furnace slag was used as absorbing bed and then, its ionic adsorption was studied. for this reason, various experimental parameters such as ph, contact time and the primary ion concentration were investigated. the remaining concentrations of ions such as; mn2+ and fe2+ in water were measured by atomic adsorption spectroscopy. the chemical and phase composition of slag, ...
