A greenhouse experiment has been planned for this study to delineate the benefits of two types of rice husk biochars (namely B300 and B600 which are prepared at 300°C and 600°C, respectvely) and coal fly ash (CFA), as soil amendments, for decreasing the amount of some heavy metals (like Pb, Cd, Ni, Cr, and Cu) as well as mobility and phytoavailability in an artificially-calcareous multi-element...

photodegradation of dicamba, an ionizable herbicide, using tio2 supported on hzsm-11 zeolite was investigated. four photocatalysts with different weight percentages (wt%) of tio2 were evaluated: 3%, 10%, 30% and 50%. the effects of the catalyst concentration, the initial ph value and the repeatability of the photocatalytic activity after multiple cycles of reuse were also evaluated. results sho...

hexavalent chromium is mobile and hazardous in the environment. electrokinetic remediationof chromium (iv)-contaminated soils is intended either to remove or to reduce cr (vi) to cr (iii). this studyexamines the effectiveness of utilizing edta and acetic acid solutions as alternative electrolytes in theelectrokinetic (ek) process, with coupled nano-scale zero-valent iron (nzvi) as a barrier for...

BACKGROUND Cognitive remediation (CR) is a psychological therapy, effective in improving cognitive performance and functioning in people with schizophrenia. As the therapy becomes more widely implemented within mental health services its longevity and uptake is likely to depend on its feasibility and acceptability to service users and clinicians. AIMS To assess the feasibility and acceptabili...

Remediation Therapy CRT is designed to improve memory and boost thinking power. Cognitive Remediation Therapy for Schizophrenia: Theory and Practice. Www.omh.state.ny.usomhwebcogdysmanualcogdyshndbk.pdf.Abstract. Purpose: Cognitive deficits in schizophrenia mainly affect memory, attention and executive functions. Cognitive remediation is a technique derived from.Cognitive remediation therapy ai...

The entry of mercaptans into the environment as an odor pollutant has always been considered as one of the environmental concerns. In this research, a sonochemical oxidation (sono-Fenton) method was used for rapid deodorizing of tert-butyl mercaptan (TBM) contaminated soil. The design of the experiments was conducted by CCD method and the effect of four different factors was investigated on the...

BACKGROUND Cognitive deficits are a core feature of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders and are associated with decreased levels of functioning. Behavioural interventions have shown success in remediating these deficits; determining how best to maximise this benefit while minimising the cost is an important next step in optimising this intervention for clinical use. AIMS To examine ...
