Cephalexin is an important antibiotic. It is very significant to determine an appropriate method for the extraction of this valuable antibiotic for industrial applications. Aiming at developing an efficient method for the extraction of cephalexin, the partitioning of cephalexin has been evaluated in aqueous two-phase system, including cholinium chloride and potassium phosphate. The effect of th...

introduction: the powdered activated carbon treatment (pact) has been proposed as an alternative in wastewater treatment and wastewater biomass protection against toxic substances. this study aims to evaluate pact performance in treating dyes, acid orange, and remazol brilliant reactive blue. methods: this empirical- applied research was carried out in pilot scale in which different dye removal...

A procedure for determining the structure of vapour and gas adsorbates that is based on the Zeta adsorption isotherm is reported. For vapours and for gases, this isotherm supposes that an adsorbate consists of particle clusters with the number of particles in a cluster denoted ζ, where ζ can be 1, 2, 3… up to a maximum of ζm, and predicts the isotherm constants are independent of pressure. For ...

A model for the formation of granitoid systems is developed involving melt production spatially below a rising isotherm that defines melt initiation. Production of the melt volumes necessary to form granitoid complexes within 10(4)-10(7) years demands control of the isotherm velocity by melt advection. This velocity is one control on the melt flux generated spatially just above the melt isother...

Boron minerals are very useful for various industrial activities, such as glass industry and detergent industry, due to its mechanical and chemical properties. During the production of boron compounds, many of these are introduced into the environment in the form of waste. Boron is also an important micro nutrient for the plants to vegetate but if it exists in high concentrations, it could have...

The need to clean-up heavy metal contaminated environment can not be over emphasized. This paper describes the adsorption isotherm studies of Cd (II), Pb (II) and Zn (II) ions from aqueous solution using unmodified and EDTA-modified maize cob. Maize cob was found to be an excellent adsorbent for the removal of these metal ions. The amount of metal ions adsorbed increased as the initial concentr...

the partition coefficients (p-values) of certain new potential, stereoselective, reversible, long-acting local anesthetics have been determined in an n-octanol/ phosphate buffer system. these are derivatives of 2-phenoxyethyldialkylamine hydrochloride, and almost all of them are readily soluble in water. their aqueous solutions have shown different absorption maxima, and these have been used qu...
