Background and Objectives: Dyes are an important class of pollutants, which can even be identified by naked eye. Disposal of dyes in precious water resources have been prohibited, however, various treatment technologies are in use. Among various methods adsorption occupies a prominent place in dye removal. Therefore, natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) and acid modified zeolite were used as a low...

there are two major theories of measurement in psychometrics: classical test theory (ctt) and item-response theory (irt). despite its widespread and long use, ctt has a number of shortcomings, which make it problematic to be used for practical and theoretical purposes. irt tries to solve these shortcomings, and provide better and more dependable answers. one of the applications of irt is the as...

Introduction: One of the heavy metals is chromium which is used in trivalent and Hexavalent oxidation state in industries such as, glass, ceramic, tannery, leather especially in electroplating industries. Hexavalent Chromium has proven several health hazards such as a carcinogen. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency of Melia azedarach ash in the removal of hexavalent chromium...

a phase-locked loop (pll) based frequency synthesizer is an important circuit that is used in many applications, especially in communication systems such as ethernet receivers, disk drive read/write channels, digital mobile receivers, high-speed memory interfaces, system clock recovery and wireless communication system. other than requiring good signal purity such as low phase noise and low spu...

nowadays in trade and economic issues, prediction is proposed as the most important branch of science. existence of effective variables, caused various sectors of the economic and business executives to prefer having mechanisms which can be used in their decisions. in recent years, several advances have led to various challenges in the science of forecasting. economical managers in various fi...

in this project, 4,4?-methylenebis(3-chloro-2,6-diethyl trimellitimidobenzene) as a diacid, was prepared by the reaction of trimellitic anhydride (tma) with 4,4?-methylenebis(3-chloro-2,6-diethylaniline) (mcdea). the novel poly(amide-imide) (pai) was synthesized from the reaction of 4,4?-methylenebis(3-chloro-2,6-diethyl trimellitimidobenzene) as a diacid with mcdea under green condition using ...
