An experimental study was conducted to determine the effects of the leaching parameters on impurity ion concentrations of the liquid phase in ulexite leaching. Powdered ulexite ore was leached in an aqueous medium with sulfur dioxide. The Taguchi experimental design approach and statistical methods were used to evaluate the effects of the leaching parameters (solid/liquid ratio, temperature...

The solubility of KNO3 in the mixed solvent (water 85%+methanol 15%) were determined by using solvent evaporating method at different temperatures (25, 30, 40, 50, 60 ;C). In addition the equilibrium constant of ion pair formation, KIP, for K+NO3 – ion-pair on the basis of Fuoss contact ion pair model was calculated. Upon choosing the extended Debye-Hückel model for estimating the mean activity...

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, ...

The main objective of this study was to investigate biocompatibility and provide in vivo pharmacological and toxicological evidence for further investigation of the possibility of pH sensitive ion exchange resin microsphere for clinical utilizations. Acute toxicity study and general pharmacological studies were conducted on the pH sensitive ion exchange resin microsphere we prepared. The genera...

a simple, sensitive and rapid method for determination of trace amounts of nitrite ion in real samples is reported. the reaction is initiated by adding known volumes of a nitrite ion solution of identified concentration to acidic solutions of thionine which causes decolorizaiton of reagent with time. the absorbance changes is then monitored spectrophotometrically at lmax = 602nm at 25 °c. calib...

a nanocomposite membrane cu2+ ion-selective electrode has been constructed using a new compound ethyl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2-oxopyrimidine-5-carboxylat (etmoc) as a neutral ionophore. the electrode works properly. it responds to cu2+ ion with a sensitivity of 29.5 ± 0.2 mv/decade over the range 1.0 × 10−9 to 5.0 × 10−1m at ph 3.0-8.0. the limit of detection was 4.5 × ...

an ion chromatography (ic) method for simultaneous determination of benzoic, salicylic and sorbic acids was developed. in this method the samples were purified by solid-phase extraction. the analytes were then eluted with methanol from c18 cartridge. the separation was performed on ion-exclusion column by an isocratic elution with 0.25 mmol /l sulfuric acid solution containing 20% (v/v) acetone...

in this study a sensitive, simple and accurate spectrophotometric method was suggested for determination of tamsulosin in bulk powder and pharmaceutical dosage form based on the formation of an ion-pair complex between the drug and bromocresol green in a buffer solution at ph 3.5. the formed yellow color complex was extracted with chloroform and measured at 415 nm. the optimum reaction conditio...

this study deals with the uptake of cd2+ and  mn2+ ions from contaminated water using two iranian natural clinoptilolite-rich tuffs from meyaneh (z-m), and semnan (z-s) regions , and a synthetic zeolite-p from z-m sample (z-p) under static (batch operation) and dynamic (column operation) conditions. to investigate the selectivity of the zeolites toward cd2+ and mn2+ cations, the ion exchange is...

chelating resins based on polyacrylonitrile and diethylenetriamine (pan-dta) wereprepared through the simple reaction of polyacrylonitrile with various volume percents ofdiethylenetriamine (dta), (25, 50, 75 and 100). the prepared resins were applied to removeheavy metal ions such as cu(ii), zn(ii) and cd(ii) from aqueous solutions. the sorptionbehaviors of the resins for these metal ions were ...
