Heavy metal contamination is a primary concern worldwide and it discharged from the industrial wastewater to large amount of heavy receiving environments. In recent years, effective use agricultural by-products definitely major challenge in waste management. The fact that residues are more easily obtained cheaper than commercial adsorbents makes attractive. this study, removal zinc using natura...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of the intake of whole walnuts and walnut fractions on the oxidant status in mice. METHODS Thirty-six C57BL/6J male mice were randomized to be fed one of three diets: 1) a standard diet (control group), 2) a standard diet with 10% of whole walnuts (walnut-diet group), or 3) a standard diet with 2% of walnut skins (walnut-skin-diet group) for 8 wk. The plasma a...

<p>Dinitrobutylphenol is a toxic and resistant pollutant that pollutes the environment by producing toxins chemical wastewater. Present paper aims to study efficiency of magnetic particles walnut hard shell ash as cheap bi-compatible adsorbent for removable DNBP from aqueous environments. This was conducted at laboratory scale studied most important parameters including contact time, pH, ...

This study used a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) polymer matrix, pine-wood flour (PWF) and walnut-shell (WSF) to produce wood-plastic composite (WPC) boards. The PWF WSF filler amounts were adjusted 20%, 30%, 40% by weight. Some of the mechanical properties produced boards comparatively investigated, such as flexural strength, modulus, deformation at break, tensile elongation break. Flexural ...

C first walnut trees and orchards were planted during the Spanish mission period (around 1800), using seedlings of early varieties of Persian or English walnut (Juglans regia) chosen for their superior growth and nut quality. Since the 1890s, walnut trees in California have been propagated by grafting or budding desired cultivars onto rootstocks chosen for their adaptation to different physical...

Laboratory testing was conducted with a nutshell filter to determine the oil-removal performance on the basis of the flux rate, media type, media size, water salinity, and oil concentration. The goal was to determine the operating parameters that allowed <5 parts per million by volume (ppmv) of oil at the outlet, which is the normal operating point for this technology in producedwater treatment...
