Synthesis of nanosilica from silica fume using an acid-base precipitation technique and PVA as a nonionic surfactant
The purpose of the present study was to synthesize and characterize nanosilica from alkali-extraction of silica fume under controlled conditions using poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as a dispersing agent. The dissolution efficiency of silica fume was affected by various factors such as concentration of the reagent, reaction time and temperature. A maximum dissolution efficiency of 91% was achieved ...
متن کاملMATERIALS AND INTERFACES Solubilization of Naphthalene by Pure and Mixed Surfactants
Surfactant-enhanced remediation technology has shown promising potential for removing residual organics from contaminated soils and groundwater. Using a homologous series of cationic surfactants, alkylpyridinium bromide, it was found that the molar solubilization ratio (MSR) for naphthalene decreases with decreasing carbon number in the hydrophobic tail. In contrast, with nonylphenyl ethoxylate...
متن کاملStudy of the Cloud Point of Nonionic Surfactant and Nonionic-cationic Surfactant Mixture: Effect of Electrolytes
Clouding phenomenon generally occurs with nonionic surfactants when the temperature of the system is raised to a certain value. This critical temperature is termed the cloud point (CP). The aqueous solutions of nonionic surfactants show complex phase behaviour including liquid-liquid phase separation at this temperature. The cloud point of aqueous surfactant solutions is influenced by the prese...
متن کاملEffect of a nonionic surfactant on biodegradation of slowly desorbing PAHs in contaminated soils.
The influence of the nonionic surfactant Brij 35 on biodegradation of slowly desorbing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was determined in contaminated soils. We employed a soil originated from a creosote-polluted site, and a manufactured gas plant soil that had been treated by bioremediation. The two soils differed in their total content in five indicator 3-, 4-, and 5-ring PAHs (2923 mg...
متن کاملRemoval of direct blue 129 from aqueous medium using surfactant-modified zeolite: a neural network modeling
Background: Conserving water for human survival and providing future security are important issues that need to be addressed. Methods: In this study, a zeolite modified with hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (HDTMA-Br), a cationic surfactant, and its application in removing direct blue 129 (DB129) was examined. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy...
