-This paper presents the results obtained from oxidation with 03 and O3/H20,_ of a residual water coming from the production of dicofoi and tetradifon pesticides, where chlorobenzenes, DDTs and its metabolites and other organochloride compounds were found. The oxidation processes were carried out using ozone (03) in basic medium (pH 9.4) at low dosage (0--1.5 g O~ g-L initial TOC) and in the pr...

An equimolar reaction of 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and 2-bromo-4-chloroaniline yielded the Schiff base ( Z )-2-((2-bromo-4-chlorophenyl)imino)methyl)-4-chlorophenol) (HL), which was used for complexation to Co 2+ , Ni Cu Zn metal salts.

In this study, magnetic nanoparticles (γ-Fe2O3) were used for the degradation of 2-chlorophenol (CP) from wastewater. The size of these magnetic nanoparticles was measured using XRD and found to be about  

Alkaline water was used for the microwave-assisted extraction of some priority pollutants of phenols in sediments, i.e. phenol (Ph), 2-chlorophenol (2CP), 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4DCP), 4-chlorophenol (4CP), 4-dinitrophenol (4NP) and pentachlorophenol (PCP). This organic solvent-free extraction procedure was optimized by studying the parameters such as pH, volume of the alkaline water, extraction...

In cells of Rhodococcus opacus GM-14, GM-29, and 1CP, the contents of branched (10-methyl) fatty acids increased from 3% to 15 to 34% of the total fatty acids when the cells were grown on benzene, phenol, 4-chlorophenol, chlorobenzene, or toluene as the sole source of carbon and energy, in comparison with cells grown on fructose. In addition, the content of trans-hexadecenoic acid increased fro...

In this report, a complete description of Desulfitobacterium hafniense strain PCP-1 is presented. The D. hafniense strain PCP-1 was isolated from a methanogenic consortium for its capacity to dehalogenate pentachlorophenol (PCP) into 3-chlorophenol. This strain is also capable of dehalogenating several other chloroaromatic compounds and tetrachloroethene into trichloroethene. Four gene loci enc...

In this study, degradation of p-chlorophenol (p-CP) was evaluated using persulfate (PS) activated zerovalent iron (ZVI) based ultraviolet (UV) in a bench scale photoreactor. The effect of operational parameters such as solution pH (3, 7, and 11), reaction time (0-60 minutes), ZVI dosage (0.15, 1.25, 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mM), PS concentration (0.5, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, and 4 mM), and initial p-CP concentr...

produced in vast quantities due to their numerous applications such as herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, solvents, hydraulic and heat transfer fluids, plasticizers, and intermediates for chemical synthesis. Because of their toxicity, bio-concentration, and persistence, the ubiquitous distribution of the halogenated compounds in the biosphere has caused public concern over the possible effec...

A water soluble azo dye modified β-cyclodextrin polymer 4 was synthesized and used as a chemosensor for the detection of chlorinated phenols, model chlorinated by-products (CBPs) of water treatment for drinking purposes. The characterization of the intermediates and the azo dye modified β-CD polymer was done by UV/Vis Spectrophotometry, FT-IR and (1)H-NMR spectroscopies. The chlorophenols were ...
