This paper compares experimental results on methylene blue (MB) removal systems based on ozone oxidation, zeolite adsorption, and simultaneous adsorption-oxidation using ozone in the presence of natural zeolite. The effect of pH (2-8), and the presence of radical scavengers (sodium acetate) on process rates and removal efficiencies are assessed at laboratory scale. The experimental system consi...

in the present work, b-zsm-5 zeolite membranes were synthesized on porous tubular α-alumina supports by several subsequence in situ crystallization hydrothermal treatments. the tio2- bohmite and ɣ- alumina intermediate layers were applied to improve the lattice matching between zeolite layer and the support. the uniform membrane intermediate layers with low permeation resistance were prepared o...

The most important and sensitive level in the modification of rangelands surrounding the mine is the initial seedling establishment of plants, which often faces failure due to adverse environmental conditions, poor soil nutrients, disturbance of soil different layers and its instability and unstable soil around the mines. New methods of rangeland improvement using biological and non-biological ...

Enriching oxygen content within nanosized zeolite X (as synthesized Na-X) by insertion of cerium (ion exchanged Ce-X) and functionalization with bromoperfluoro-n-octane (fluorinated F-X) is reported. The materials were fully characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), dynamic light scattering (DLS), zeta potential, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), nitrogen adsorption, and nuclear magnetic...

To control indoor air quality, a novel freon gas sensor of piezoelectric microcantilever coated with zeolite has been developed in this paper. Excited by an ac voltage, the microcantilever is employed to detect the concentration of sample freon-12 gas ranged from 0 to 100 ppm by the effect of the specific MFI zeolite modification. High selectivity and sensitivity combined with excellent repeata...

considering the point that the existence of heavy metals in the wastewater are so dangerous forthe environment and it would have many bad consequences for all the creatures including human beings, wemust try out the ways that make us capable of adsorbing these heavy metals. in order to accomplish this goal we should use a method called adsorbing. in this study the adsorption of copper ions in h...

Using hydrothermal synthesis process a series of Mobil Five (MFI) zeolites were synthesized with silica to alumina ratio (SAR) of 50, 100 and 200. The synthesized MFI zeolites were used to exchange with 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0% Ca(NO3)2 solutions for modification of MFI zeolites to Ca-MFI zeolite. The formation of MFI zeolite phases was identified by XRD and FT-IR analysis. TGA...

the purpose of this study was to find a relatively inexpensive method for removal of arsenate and arsenite from drinking water. the capability of iranian natural clinoptilolites, relevant synthetic zeolites a and p and iron(п) modified of them was investigated for the uptake of arsenic anions from drinking water. data obtained from ion-exchange using batch (static) technique showed that among t...
