In the present work, the modified nickel electrode was electrochemically fabricated and tested for the electro-oxidation of paracetamol in alkaline media. The methods of cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry (CA), and impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to determine kinetic parameters such as transfer coefficient (α), the catalytic reaction rate constants (k), and the diffusion coeffici...

sedimentation in reservoirs reduces dams storage and makes many problems in their operation. therefore accurate computation of sediment volume is essential for appropriate design and optimum reservoir management during its operation. in this research long term field data of sefid-rood dam were used to check the sediment volume computed for ghezelozan basin. the computed volume of sediment by ra...

A sensor, based on multi-wall carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode (MWCNT/GCE), was developed for determination of fenitrothion. Determining the surface area of MWCNT/GCE showed that this surface is three times more active than that of a glassy carbon electrode. The experimental parameters, such as the amount of MWCNTs, pH of the fenitrothion solution, preconcentration potential an...

Monodispersed Pd-nanoparticles (∼ 8 nm) prepared via a modified microemulsion method were deposited on active carbon fibers (ACF) fabrics and studied in a semi-batch 1-hexyne liquid-phase hydrogenation. The catalyst Pd(0.45 wt%)/ACF demonstrated > 96% selectivity to 1-hexene up to 90% of conversion. Initial activity at 303 K, 1.3 MPa pressure, in n-heptane as a solvent was 0.14 kmolH2 kg −1 Pd ...

A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex was achieved on the surface of glass carbon electrode by sol-gel technique. The electrochemical behavior of modified electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry in detail. The film electrode obtained was very stable and exhibited electrocatalytic response for oxidation of nitrite. Results showed at bare GC electrode, a...

a pvc membrane cr(iii) ion selective electrode has been constructed using 2h-1,4-benzothioazine-2,3(4h)dione dioxime (btd) as membrane carrier. the influence of membrane composition on the electroderesponse was studied. the electrode exhibits a nernstian response over a cr(iii) concentration range of 1.0 x10 6 to 1.0>< 10-1 m (r = 0.99) with a slope of 19.5 ± 0.5 mv per decade of concentration,...

In the present study, orthosulfamuron residues were extracted from fatty (unpolished) rice and rice straw using a modified QuEChERS method and analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The matrix-matched calibration was linear over the concentration ranges of 0.01-2.0 mg/kg with determination coefficient (R (2)) ⩾ 0.997. The recovery rates at two fortification levels (0.1 a...

In the present study, a modified Structure Function was introduced. In this modified Structure Function model, the coefficient of model was computed dynamically base on the coherent structure in the flow field. The ability of this Modified Structure Function was investigated for complex flow over a square cylinder in free stream and a low aspect ratio cylinder confined in a channel. The Results...
