in the present study, advanced oxidation treatment, uv/ was applied to decolourisation of acid orange 8 (ao8). the uv radiation was carried out with a 15 w low-pressure mercury lamp. kinetic model for the decolourisation of the dye was developed based on experimental results and known chemical and photochemical reactions. the observed kinetic reaction constant was determined and correlated as a...

this descriptive study is carried out to determine the effectiveness of family planning programmes in iran for years 1991-96. the study revealed the following outlines: contraceptives prevalence rates increased from 42% to 67% during years 1991-96. zaro couples years of protection increased for norplant, injectable contraceptive, iud, vasectomy and tubectomy, but for candom it is decreased in y...

The kinetic study of the condensation reaction between phloroglucinol and acetone was investigated at 30, 35, 40 and 45±0.05 °C in 100% methanol. The hydrochloric acid concentrations used were 0.0261, 0.0364, 0.0577 and 0.0728 M. The reaction was investigated with and without a promoter, thioglycollic acid (TGA), and taking into account the functionality (h<e...

In this work, kinetics and thermodynamics of esterification reaction were studied. This research investigated the esterification reaction between methanol and acidified oil catalyzed by sulfonated cation exchange resin and proposed a new rate equation for consideration of kinetics of this reaction according to the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism. Thermodynamics and kinetics parameters were calcu...

3,4-Dihydropyrimidinones and their derivatives are synthesized via Biginelli routes involving an aromatic aldehydes, ethylacetoacetates and urea in one-pot procedure by using CdS nanoparticles as efficient heterogeneous catalyst in solvent-free conditions. Compared with classical Biginelli reaction reported in 1893, this new method provides much improved modification in terms of simplicity. The...

The use of colored semiconductor oxide like copper (II) oxide and nickel (II) oxide for photocatalytic bleaching of rose bengal was investigated in detail. In order to harness the solar energy, the effective wavelength of the photocatalyst is to be expanded into the visible region and that increases the rate of photocatalytic bleaching of the dye. Progress of the reaction was observed spect...
