background and aims: nowadays heavy metals are the environmental priority pollutants and are becoming as the most serious environmental problems. in recent years removing those from diverse industrial effluents and metal cleaning have been studied. the aim of the present study was to investigate the different methods for cooper removal of cooper ions from industrial wastewater. methods: this st...

comin the case of pharmaceutical processes, the presence of preservatives can be problematic and the quantity is subject to stringent standards. so, the aim of this study is to quantify the removal of glycerin contained in ultrafiltration flat sheet membranes by filtration and soaking. this is carried out over a wide range of membranes with different characteristics. the selected flat sheet mem...

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 ...

conclusions briefly, the current study represents a novel method to eliminate temephos as an organophosphate compound from water samples with modified zero-valent iron nanoparticles. background temephos is an organophosphate pesticide used as larvicide in the environment. although not extremely hazardous, it can be risky for human health in the moderate concentrations. objectives this study inv...

background:  little is known about trends and predictors of hardware related infection following open reduction and internal fixation (orif) of extremity fractures, one of the major causes of failure following orif. the present study was designed and conducted to determine trends and predictors of infection-related hardware removal following orif of extremities using a nationally representative...

background: a laboratory study was conducted to investigate the ability of a special type of strongly basic resin mp500ws for the removal of nitrate from different waters. methods: two different types of point-of-use (pou) devices containing an identical resin were used. mp500ws known as macro porous was used in pou devices for removal of high concentrations of nitrate and sulfate ions from wat...

ultrasonic technology as an innovative technology may be used for water and wastewater treatment for pollution removal. this technology acts as an advanced oxidation process. application of this technology leads to the decomposition of many com­plex organic compounds to much simpler compounds during physical and chemical compounds during cavitation proc­ess. in this article review, some applica...

BACKGROUND Hardware removals are among the most commonly performed surgical procedures worldwide. Current literature offers little data concerning postoperative patient satisfaction. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the patients' point of view on implant removal. METHODS We surveyed patients of a German level one trauma center, who underwent hardware removal in 2009 and 2010, with reg...
