This paper reports on the synthesis and characterisation of polysulfone (PSf) ultrafltration (UF) membranes modifed with carbon coated alumina Ni-doped titanium dioxide (CCA/Ni-TiO2) nanoparticles. The syntheses of the membranes was carried out using the phase inversion process. The ...

In this work, different kinetic patterns (homographic, exponential-linear and exponential) of hydraulic resistance in ultrafltration process of a colloidal system have been investigated. Exponential kinetic model, as the best approach, was employed for description of dynamic hydraulic resistance of skim milk ultrafltration at different feed flow rates (FR) (10, 30 and 46 L...

Objective: Chloride is the major plasma anion. There are several methods available for the determination of serum chloride levels. Unfortunately these methods are sometimes not available in the urgent setting where values are needed. Here we describe...

New extension of nanoparticles used in the last two decades and hence, entrance of them to industrialand non-industrial sewage necessitate study of probable effects of these materials in aquatic ecosystems.This research was performed in order to determine the toxicity effect of silica dioxide (SiO2</spa...

The performances of the optimized tree-type cylindrical-shaped nanoporous fltering membranes with six or seven branch pores in each pore tree are analytically studied. The radius Rb,1 of the branch pore for fltration is normally on the 1 or 10 nm scales. The larger trunk pore is for ...
