In this study, characterization of monochlorophenols (o-, m-, p-chlorophenol) has been observed by using FTIR spectroscopy as well as the effects of molecule symmetry on vibrational frequencies of molecule. Vibrational modes of monochlorophenols investigated by means of ATR which is the best choice for liquid phase. The observed infrared bands of monochlorophenols are assigned with their geomet...

A novel magnetically separable laccase immobilized system was constructed by adsorbing laccase into bimodal carbon-based mesoporous magnetic composites (CMMC). A large adsorption capacity (491.7 mg g(-1)), excellent activity recovery (91.0%) and broader pH and temperature profiles than free laccase have been exhibited by the immobilized laccase. Thermal stability was enhanced to a great extent ...

A novel in-situ electrochemical oxidation method was applied to the degradation of wastewater containing chlorophenol. Under oxygen sparging, the strong oxidant, hydrogen dioxide, could be in-situ generated through the reduction of oxygen on the surface of the cathode. The removal rate of chlorophenol could be increased 149% when oxygen was induced in the electrochemical cell. The promotion fac...

In this work, the development and characterization of a new ceramic material modified with polyaniline powder obtained by high-power ultrasound sol-gel route is presented. A preliminary screening conducting polymer electroactivity was performed means cyclic voltammetry in free analyte solution. Remarkable figures merit for 4-chloro-3-methylphenol (PCMC) determination, selected as model organic ...

OBJECTIVES The aim was to study the incidence of cancer among Swedish leather tanners. METHODS A cohort of 2026 subjects who had been employed for at least one year between 1900 and 1989 in three Swedish leather tanneries, was established. The cancer incidence and mortality patterns were assessed for the periods 1958-89 and 1952-89 respectively, and cause-specific standardised incidence and m...
