Due to the present water shortage and environmental problems associated with industrial effluent, investigation of novel treatment technologies is an essential approach. Being a highly toxic chemical of asphyxiating characteristics, cyanide is seen as a major environmental pollutant in a wide range of industrial effluents. The present study aimed to address the adsorption and photocatalytic deg...

This paper provides simple, transparent intuition for the perhaps surprising and certainly widely debated empirical findings of ”environmental Kuznets curves”, i.e. U-shaped relationships between per-capita income and indicators of environmental quality. We consider one possible component of such relationships: the linkage between income and household choices that impact upon the environment. O...

polyethylene is a synthetic polymer which is used in our daily life for different purposes. increased use of polyethylene causes severe environmental problems. there are different methods to decrease problem caused by polyethylene for example source reduction, incineration and land filling and all of them have their own drawbacks. so, the best way to reduce the problem caused by polyethylene is...

Background & Aims of the Study: Pharmaceutical compounds have a variety of forms and applications. Specific amounts of toxic organic compounds in the process of their manufacturing and utilization cause environmental pollution problems. So, degradation and removal these compounds are necessary. The aim of this paper is the study photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin drug in aqueous soluti...

A Fe-TAML/H2O2 catalytic oxidation process achieves facile in-solution total degradation of fenitrothion and two other organophosphorus (OP) pesticides. Degradation products have been identified and quantified providing evidence for oxidative hydrolysis, oxidative desulfuration, perhydrolysis, and deep oxidation. Degradation pathways can be selected by pH control to completely obviate all toxic...
