Catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) of phenol over activated carbon catalysts in presence of a typical promoter such as hydrogen peroxide has been studied. The experiments were carried out in a trickle-bed reactor at given operating conditions (Cinlet phenol= 1 g/L, Cinlet H2O2= 5g/L, T=127 oC, PT=8 atm and WCAT=2.5 g) in a wide range of space time values (W/QL=20-320 gCAT·h/L). The effect of th...

BACKGROUND Asparagus gracilis subspecie of Asparagus capitatus Baker, is described as food and medicine for various ailments. In this study we investigated, its phenolic constituents, in vitro antioxidant potential against various free radicals and anti-urease potential. METHODS Asparagus gracilis aerial parts collected from District Islamabad, Pakistan were extracted with crude methanol whic...

hydrogen peroxide is an important mild oxidant which is widely used in various applications including remediation of waste waters and drinking water resources. the safe level of h2o2 residue has to be controlled through accurate and precise measurement methods. a facile spectrophotometric method for the determination of hydrogen peroxide is based on the reaction of iodine solution with toluidin...

OBJECTIVES Sweet peppers Capsicum annuum L. (C. annuum) are an excellent source of vitamins A and C as well as phenolic compounds, which are important antioxidant components that may reduce the risk of diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate their antioxidant activity under various temperatures. MATERIALS AND METHODS To compare the antioxidant activity in various temperatures (2...

Lippia alba is a shrub found in all regions of Brazil and other countries in South and Central America. L. alba exhibits variability among its different accessions, showing differences in morphology and in the composition of its essential oil. This study evaluated the phenolic profiles and the antioxidant activities of seven different accessions of L. alba. The seven accessions of L. alba studi...

background: the purpose of the present study was to assess the efficiency of ultrasound/hydrogen peroxide processes and ultrasound/hydrogen peroxide/zno nanoparticles in the removal of blue cat 41 dye from aqueous solutions. methods: zno nanoparticles were prepared using the hydrothermal method. variables including ph, concentration of zno nanoparticles, initial dye concentration, concentration...

a range of some iranian monofloral honeys were assayed for antibacterial activity with and without hydrogen peroxide which is inactivated by the addition of catalase. i t was found that the high amount of antibacterial activity in honeys was due to a factor other than hydrogen peroxide. the test microorganism staphylococcus aureus, was not inhibited by the acidity or the osmolarity of the honey...

a feasible and fast method to fabricate hydrogen peroxide sensor was investigated by graphene-manganase nanocomposite carbone paste electrode. in the present work, in first step, the graphene was synthesized by chemical method and in second step, manganese oxide nanoparticle was doped on graphene. graphene-manganase nanocomposite was characterized by ftir and sem. the nanocomposite shows a high...
