The health benefits of cranberries have long been recognized. However, the mechanisms behind its function are poorly understood. We have investigated the iron-binding properties of quercetin, the major phenolic phytochemical present in cranberries, and other selected phenolic compounds (chrysin, 3-hydroxyflavone, 3',4'-dihydroxy flavone, rutin, and flavone) in aqueous media using UV/vis, NMR an...

Grafting of vinyl monomers onto cellulose is an important tool for the modification of cellulose. Depending on the monomer grafted onto cellulose, it gains new properties. The grafting can be performed in heterogeneous or homogeneous medium. In the grafting performed in heterogeneous medium, the reaction is carried out in aqueous medium using a suitable initiator. As initiator, the radiation or...

In order to improve the degradation efficiency of pulping and papermaking wastewater, the combination oxidation process of Fenton with ultrasonic irradiation was carried out. The processes of ultrasonic irradiation alone and Fenton oxidation alone on pulping and papermaking wastewater treatment were optimized respectively. Basing on the optimum process of Fenton oxidation, the synergistic effec...

Many types of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), namely Fenton (Fe 2+ /H2O2) with different doses, Fenton-like (UV/Fe 2+ /H2O2), photo-Fenton (Fe 2+ /H2O2/TiO2), and plasma technology have been investigated for the removal of organic matters (COD content) from landfill leachate. Fenton's oxidation was the most effective as the most effective ratio 1/10 (Fe 2+ /H2O2) which allow the COD remova...

A series of photo-Fenton reactions have been performed for the degradation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in a 4.2-l reactor. The degradation reaction rate of TNT followed a pseudo-first-order behavior; and the rate constants for 2.4mW cm(-2)UV only, 2.4mW cm(-2)UV/H(2)O(2), Fenton, photo-Fenton (2.4mW cm(-2)) and photo-Fenton (4.7mW cm(-2)) were 0.002min(-1), 0.007min(-1), 0.014min(-1), 0.025m...

In this research, the nanosized Fe2V4O13 complex oxide material was synthesized by hydrothermal method. Its structure, morphology characterization, and other properties were determined using X-ray, SEM, EDX, DTA-TG methods. The catalytic activity of evaluated in terms decolorization degradation Indigo carmine dye. optimal condition for reusability catalyst determined. results showed that hetero...
