background & aims of the study: heavy metals are the most important and main pollutants because of their accumulation and high toxicity even at very low dose and cause serious hazards to ecological system as well as human health. thus, their removal has been challenged from drinking water and industrial waters with different technologies. the purpose of this work is to investigate the removal o...

Theoretical estimates of phase shifter performance as a function of material parameters are presented by examining the results obtained from the small perturbation model used by Button and Lax and from the fully ierrite loaded, parallel plane waveguide model used by Suhl «And Walker. The extension of Suhi's theory on nonlinear effects at high power by Fletcher and Silence is applied to relate t...

Stabilization efficiencies of spinel-based construction ceramics incorporating simulated nickel-laden waste sludge were evaluated and the leaching behavior of products investigated. To simulate the process of immobilization, nickel oxide was mixed alternatively with gamma-alumina, kaolinite, and hematite. These tailoring precursors are commonly used to prepare construction ceramics in the build...

Arsenic is noxious metal exist in water in form of organic dimethyl arsenic acid (C2H7AsO2) and monomethylarsonic acid (CH5AsO3) while in inorganic arsenic trioxide (As2O3) and sodium arsenate (NaH2AsO4). Its trivalent and pentavalent forms are abundant in natural water. Its trivalent form is 60 times more hazardous than pentavalent form. Reports proved that arsenic contamination in water is th...

Nanocrystalline nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) has been synthesized from a stoichiometric mixture of oxides NiO and α-Fe2O3 in a high energy planetary mill. A post milling annealing at 350 °C was used to improve the solid state reaction. The obtained powders were investigated by X-ray diffraction, magnetic measurements, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray microanalysis, differential scanning calorime...

In this research nickel zinc ferrite nanoparticles with composition of Ni1-xZnxFe2O4 (where x=0, 0.3, 0.7, 1) were synthesized by a sol-gel method at 600 °C for 5 hours. The structure of nanoparticles was studied using X-ray diffraction pattern. The lattice parameter of ferrite nanoparticles was calculated and indicates lattice constant of nanoparticl...

NiFe2O4 (nickel ferrite), ZnFe2O4 (zinc ferrite) and Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 (nickel-zinc ferrite) were prepared by mechanochemical route in a planetary ball mill starting from mixture of the appropriate quantities of the Ni(OH)2/Fe(OH)3, Zn(OH)2/Fe(OH)3 and Ni(OH)2/Zn(OH)2/Fe(OH)3 hydroxide powders. In order to monitor the progress of chemical reaction and confirm phase formation, powder samples obtai...

Magnetic oxides are naturally occurring minerals. In order to understand their unique properties and their utilization in technological applications, one must fully understand the correlation between chemistry, structure, particle size and processing. Among the broad classification of magnetic oxides, the spinel ferrites gain much importance because of their low cost, high magnetic permeability...

Iron–nickel spinel oxide NiFe2O4 nanoparticles have been prepared by the combination of chemical precipitation and subsequent mechanical milling. For comparison, their analogue obtained by thermal synthesis is also studied. Phase composition and structural properties of iron–nickel oxides are investigated by X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Their catalytic behavior in methanol deco...
