Copper is one of the most dangerous pollutants that require removal from wastewater effluents before being discharged. Here are reported on the adsorption performance of a novel environmental friendly material, calcium alginate gel beads as a non-conventional technique for the successful removal of copper ions from aqueous solution. Batch equilibrium studies were carried out to evaluate the ads...

After initial promotion of copper excretion with D-penicillamine, the effect of oral zinc sulphate (3 X 150 mg/day, loading dose; 3 X 100 mg/day, maintenance dose) in two children with clinically stable Wilson's disease was evaluated after completion of three years' treatment. The course, judged by clinical, biochemical, and histological parameters was satisfactory in both. The urinary copper c...

In present study the removal of Copper ions from aqueous solution containing 100-800 mg/lit, using chemically modified Acacia bark was performed on laboratory scale. The chemical modification was done by treating grinded bark with formaldehyde in acidic medium. The Cu (II) is exchanged against protons on the modified bark that contain carboxyl groups in both pectin and tannin compounds. The eff...

1. Human gastrointestinal secretions formed soluble copper complexes when labelled in vitro with 64cu. 2. Copper-binding substances of low molecular weight were demonstrated in the saliva, gastric juice and secretin-stimulated duodenal aspirate of normal subjects by dialysis and gel-chromatography studies. 3. The nature of the copper complexes formed by secretions obtained from patients with Wi...

The electrical energy grid has a growing need for energy storage to address short-term transients, frequency regulation, and load leveling. Though electrochemical energy storage devices such as batteries offer an attractive solution, current commercial battery technology cannot provide adequate power, and cycle life, and energy efficiency at a sufficiently low cost. Copper hexacyanoferrate and ...

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...

Rootstocks of fruit trees, commonly used to regulate growth, precocity, fertility, and yield, can also be used to solve problems associated with soils pollution such as copper excess. Despite their potential use for phytoremediation, information on the physiological, biochemical, and molecular aspects of heavy metal toxicity stress on fruit tree rootstocks remains limited. In this study of Prun...

This research deals with the synthesis of nanosized copper as colloidal solution and its application to cotton fabric. Copper nano colloids were prepared by chemical reduction of copper salt using sodium borohydride as reducing agent in presence of trisodium citrate. The size and size distribution of the particles were examined by particle size analyzer and the morphology of the synthesized par...
