Development of Heavy Metal-Free Photocatalytic RhB Decomposition System Using a Biodegradable Plastic Substrate

Toxic heavy metal contamination in locally made plastic food container

The exposure of human to toxic heavy metal release from plastic container creates a major health hazards. The main objectives of this study was to examine the concentration of toxic heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Ni, Zn, Mn, Cr and Cd) in local made food containers purchased from various districts of U.P,(India), at 25±2°C for 24hrs in different simulating solvents as per BIS, IP, USP and other guidelin...

abstract the present study tried to investigate the effect of visual aids (films) on the development of the speech act of disagreement among iranian efl intermediate learners. to this end, the researcher selected 40 homogeneous intermediate learners based on their scores on oxford placement test. .the subjects then divided into control group and experimental group. both classes were tested by ...

Heavy Metal Removal Using Dithiocarbamates

ajor emphasis is placed today on treating plating solutions and rinsewater to reduce the concentration of toxic metals to below established limits prior to discharge or water reuse. Available technology is adequate for partial treatment of most wastewater; however, new technology is needed to scavenge heavy metals from complexed or chelated compounds in rinsewater. Several report^^-'^ from this...
