Present study is carried out for the removal of As(lII) from water using commonly available adsorbents such as sand, from Yamuna river (Delhi ), as well as from Ganga river (Kolkata), activated carbon, Hametite ore and sand -iron scrap mixture. All these adsorbents are used as received but sand and activated carbon which do not show much adsorption for As(lII) are modified by treating with diff...

Contaminant co-precipitation with continuously generated and transformed iron corrosion products has received relatively little attention in comparison to other possible removal mechanisms (adsorption, oxidation, precipitation) in Fe/H2O systems at near neutral pH values. A primary reason for this is that the use of elemental iron (Fe0) in environmental remediation is based on the thermodynamic...

Background and Aim: Management of iron-induced tooth pigmentation is challenging. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of sodium bicarbonate powder and pumice flour for removal of iron-induced pigmentation from primary ante-rior teeth. Materials and Methods: In this in vitro, experimental study, 60 sound primary anterior teeth were collected. After cutting the roots and sealing the pulp ch...

background existence of fluoride in drinking water above the permissible level causes human skeletal fluorosis. objectives electrocoagulation by iron and aluminum electrodes was proposed for removing fluoride from drinking water. materials and methods effects of different operating conditions such as treatment time, initial ph, applied voltage, type and number of electrodes, the spaces between ...

The mechanism of aqueous contaminant removal by elemental iron (Fe 0 ) materials (e.g., in Fe 0 -H2O systems) has been largely discussed in the “iron technology” literature. Two major removal mechanisms are usually discussed: (i) contaminant adsorption onto Fe 0 oxidation products, and (ii) contaminant reduction by Fe 0 , Fe II or H/H2. However, a closer inspection of the chemistry of the Fe 0 ...

abstract background: heavy metals in industrial wastewater especially chromium (vi) are considered as the main environmental pollutants. methods: electrochemical cell made of plexiglass with a volume of 1.95 lit was used. iron and graphite electrodes, electricity conductor, each with dimensions of 0.1×3×10 cm (width×length×height) were designed and built. tests were carried out in various condi...

conclusions according to the results, it can be concluded that the titanium catalyst doped with iron (fe+3-tio2) processes is an appropriate method for reducing atrazine in polluted water resources. results the results demonstrated that the atrazine removal rate increased by decreasing the initial atrazine concentration and the maximum rate of atrazine removal (41.72%) was at ph = 11, atrazine ...

28 Fenton’s reagent, a solution of hydrogen peroxide and ferrous iron catalyst, is used for an 29 in-situ chemical oxidation of organic contaminants. Sulfuric acid is commonly used to 30 create an acidic condition needed for catalytic oxidation. Fenton’s reaction often involves 31 pressure buildup and precipitation of reaction products, which can cause safety hazards 32 and diminish efficiency....
