Textured polycrystalline Fe-Ga alloys exhibit magnetostrictive strains of 100 ppm or greater and may function as a mechanically robust actuator/sensing material. Current efforts seek to combine the 300+ ppm magnetostrictive strain performance of [100] oriented single crystals with the mechanical properties of polycrystalline forms. One approach to combining these properties is to control the cr...

The present study estimated the concentration (in ppm) of heavy metals Zn, Fe, Cu and Pb in water samples edible tissue Labeo boga; both collected from non polluted (Station I) II) locations river Tawi, Jammu, India. mean (Zn, Cu, Pb) at Station I were 0.048±0.008 (ppm); 0.016±0.001 0.157±0.002 (ppm) 0.0001±0.0001 respectively; while II, these values 0.133±0.001 0.022±0.002 0.206±0.002 0.002±0....

The textile industry is the main source of environmental pollution in terms quality and quantity. It consumes large amounts water (200 m3/ tonne products), around 90% quantity wastewater. Improper disposal wastewater will cause serious problems due to presence heavy metals waste which adversely affect aquatic organisms. To analyze, concentration (batik) was collected from 15 small, medium, larg...

Harvesting of microalgae Scenedesmus sp. (strain A1) using the natural polymer chitosan was investigated. Different chitosan concentrations, i.e., 10, 20, 40, 60 and 80 ppm were used in the pH range 6 to 10 and cultural cell densities values equivalent to 1, 2 and 3 abs680. Without the addition of chitosan, the increase in pH of the culture led to limited cell sedimentation. The addition of chi...

Ten cadmium resistant marine bacterial isolates were isolated from seawater and sediments samples of Hurghada harbour on a seawater nutrient agar medium amended by 25 ppm of cadmium and tested for their resistance to higher cadmium concentrations (up to 200 ppm). The most resistant isolate which was able to grow at 150 ppm was identified on the basis of its morphological, physiological and bioc...

Pollution by heavy metals in the environment is a worldwide problem. The aim of research study was to record effect lead (Pb) and iron (Fe) elements on early seedling growth Albizia lebbeck L. (Benth.) Eucalyptus globulus Labill. obtained results showed that higher level treatment present substrate had wide spectrum toxicity activity against seedlings performance A. E. as compared control lab c...

Heavy metal concentrations and magnetic susceptibility of sediment samples were analyzed as indicators of urban and industrial contamination in Anzali wetland in Gilan, Iran. The aim was to investigate the suitability of magnetic properties measurements for indicating heavy metal pollution. The concentration of six heavy metals (Ni, Cr, Cd, Zn, Fe, and Pb) was determined in different depths of ...

Furrow irrigation detaches and transports soil particles and subsequently nutrients such as phosphorus (P). To reduce the risk of erosion and offsite P movement, producers can convert from furrow to sprinkler irrigation. We completed research on soil P dynamics in furrow versus sprinkler irrigated soils from four paired fields in south central Idaho. Surface soils (0-2.5 inches) were obtained f...

In this work, the effects of preparation methods such as CE oven, microwave irradiation, and ultrasound on the morphology, particle size and crystallinity of MIL-53(Fe) are firstly investigated. Furthermore, the methods are utilized to prepare Pt NPs@MIL-53(Fe). As a result, well-defined Pt NPs@MIL-53(Fe) prepared by microwave irradiation exhibits uniformed morphology, hig...

The ability of the easily reducible tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) ligand to bridge up to four metal centers and to adopt any oxidation state between 0 and -2 has generated a unique coordination chemistry with potential applications in molecular magnetism, electrochromism, and molecular computing. The coordination chemistry of electroactive, tetradonorsubstituted olefins is much less explored but ma...
