In this laboratory scale study, impregnated almond shell activated carbon was used as adsorbent to investigate its feasibility for nitrate adsorption from aqueous medium. The effects of activated carbon dosage and contact time have been examined in batch experiments. Experimental data show that impregnated activated carbons by Fe0, Fe2 (SO4)3, and FeSO4 were more effective than virgin almond ac...

ordered mesoporous carbon cmk-3 (omc) have been synthesized using mesoporous sba-15 silica as template and modified with cobalt carbonate. morphologies and surface texturing of materials werecharacterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and n2 adsorption-desorptionisotherms. the cobalt modified ordered mesoporous carbon were found to have a surface area of 490.06m...

in this paper, synthesized (raw) multi-walled carbon nanotube (rmwcnts) surfaces were modified with chitosan and β-cyclodextrin using chen’s soft cutting technique. raw and surface modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes were observed by transmission electron microscope (tem). the results showed that chitosan and β-cyclodextrin could attach to the outer surface of nanotubes, wrapping the nanotub...

abstract the graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated and used to determine amlodipine besylate. in 0.1 m ph 7.3 phosphate buffer solutions, the redox peak currents of amlodipine besylate increased significantly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode compared with bare electrode and chitosan modified glassy carbon electrode, ...

The surface of the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) is modified with the composite of new Cobalt complex with a tetradentate Schiff base ligand derived from 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde and 4,5-dimethyl orthophenylenediamine (CoOEtSal) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT). The electrochemical oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA) and dopamine (DA) at the modified electrode was studied using the cyclic an...

New type of humidity sensor based on Carbon thin film active nano layers, modified with sodium salt of sulfonated Nickel phthalocyanine is presented. The sensor shows high sensitivity due to the high surface area of Carbon nanoparticles, good long-time stability and sensitivity in the range from 20 to 85 % relative humidity (RH). The response is linear in semilogarithmic plot – logarithm of imp...

The electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. Cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (PPO). A redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. The influence of various parameters such as pH,...
