This paper describes the results of an industrial pollution prevention pilot project in Nebraska. The goal of the project is to demonstrate that through proper management and operating practices, that industrial pollution can effectively be reduced significantly. The net effect of this pollution prevention program is to improve the economic worth of the industry by lowering expenditures on poll...

In this study, a comprehensive effect of particle loading and optimised process parameter on the developed zinc electrolyte was presented. The depositions were performed between 10-30 min at a stirring rate of 200 rpm at room temperature of 30 °C. The effect of coating difference on the properties and interfacial surface was acquired, at a voltage interval between 0.6 and 1.0 V for the coating ...

In this research an experimental study has done for testing the thermal performance of selective surfaces used in solar collectors substrate iron, galvanized iron and aluminum which are commercially available. The coating process samples two ways, electroplating chemical spray pyrolysis. results test these comparing with a sample without paint other black shines For electroplated samples, diffe...

Recycling of spent silver electroplating solutions has been investigated via electrowinning and electrorefining in comparison to zinc cementation technique this research. Two different compositions transparent dark waste were used having the remaining contents 17.71 g⸳L-1 33.36 respectively. The as an electrolyte first step at low current density 0.015 A⸳cm-2. It was found that increasing time ...

t is known that the protective value of zinc is partially a result of its ability to form a protective film when plated on a base metal, such as steel. The zinc is sacrificial and corrodes I preferentially to protectthe steel. Although pure zinc coating provides some degree of protection for the substrate, in a severe corrosion environment, zinc is consumed rapidly. For this reason, it is usual...

The present work demonstrates the fabrication and performance of an enzymatic glucose biosensor based on ZnO nanowires (NWs) deposited on a Au-coated polyester (PET) substrate. Electrodeposition of ZnO NWs on the conducting PET substrate was carried out at 70 degrees C in an aqueous electrolyte consisting of zinc nitrate mixed with potassium chloride. Glucose oxidase (GOx) was subsequently immo...

With particular focus on bulk heterojunction solar cells incorporating ZnO nanorods, we study how different annealing environments (air or Zn environment) and temperatures impact on the photoluminescence response. Our work gives new insight into the complex defect landscape in ZnO, and it also shows how the different defect types can be manipulated. We have determined the emission wavelengths f...
