We have investigated the electrochemical oxidation of sulfuric acid on boron-doped synthetic diamond electrodes (BDD) obtained by HF CVD on p-Si. The results have shown that high current efficiency for sulfuric acid oxidation to peroxodisulfuric acid can be achieved in concentrated H2SO4 ( /2 M) at moderate temperatures (8 /10 8C). The main side reaction is oxygen evolution. Small amounts of pe...

An urgent task is the development of new resource-saving technologies for deep processing wastes from hydrometallurgical industry purpose their reuse. Membrane make it possible to create closed technological cycles with reuse recovered components in production, which allows solving many environmental problems. At Abinsk Electric Steel Works Ltd. (Russia), during production copper-coated steel w...

an experiment was conducted to study the effect of sulfuric acid, temperature scales and the source of seed on to break hardness alfalfa seed (medicagoscutellatacvrobinson). this study was carried out as a factorial experiment based on randomized complete design with four replications at the agricultural collage of lorestan university in 2005. acid treatment as the first factor (to rinse with a...

This paper describes the effect of the addition of Tween-80 in dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment on enzymatic hydrolysis of waste office paper. Lignocellulosic material was pretreated with dilute sulfuric acid (1% V/V) at 50 oC for 3 hours, with or without addition of Tween-80 (2.5 g/L). The pretreatment was able to remove hemicellulose and lignin from waste office paper, but the surfactant did...

To determine cholesterolin biologicalfluids,use of the ferric chloride-sulfuric acid reagent introduced by Zlatkis et al. (1) is relatively simple and reliable (2, 3), and the sensitivityof the reagent for cholesterol is four to five times greater than that of the Liebermann-Burchard reagent (2). However, Parekh and Jung (4) reported that hydrogen chloride is evolved during the ferric chloride-...

Eight new Schiff bases of 5-nitro and 5-bromo-substituted 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxaldehydes with sulfur-containing amines, thiosemicarbazide, S-alkyl/aryl dithiocarbazates and 2-mercaptoaniline have been synthesized and characterized by a variety of spectroscopic methods. The condensation reactions of the dialdehydes with the amines were carried out both in the presence and absence of c...

Because of the acute toxicity of Cr(VI)-bearing substances, the pollution problem caused by chromite process residue has become a worldwide concern. In the view of relevant studies, the technologies based on the alkali treatment cannot fundamentally resolve the pollution problem, because the oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI) is unavoidable during chromite decomposition. In contrast, the oxidation ...
