−Singleand bi-solute sorption and desorption of 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) and 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (2,4,5TCP) in montmorillonite modified with hexadecyltrimethyl-ammonium (HDTMA) were investigated by sequential sorption and desorption. Effect of pH on the sequential sorption and desorption was investigated. As expected by the magnitude of octanol : water partition coefficient (K ow ), both sorptio...

The adsorption properties of olive wood (OW) toward phenol, 2-chlorophenol, 3-chlorophenol, 4-chlorophenol, 2-nitrophenol, 4-nitrophenol and 2,4-dinitrophenol, were improved by washing OW with some organic solvents (ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, ether, dichloromethane or hexane). Adsorption isotherms were classified according to Giles and Smith classification, in which L2-shape was obtained after O...

As a novel approach to characterize the phenolic pollutants of Lake Balaton (Central Europe, western Hungary), 26 endocrine disrupting phenols (chlorophenols, nitrophenols, alkylphenols, triclosan, bisphenol-A) were quantified in dissolved and suspended particulate matter (SPM) phases, alike. Sample collection was performed in the western and eastern basins, at 20 sites in April and October 201...

Water is an essential natural resource, and its contamination important issue at present. This study aimed to increase the techniques that can be used clean reuse industrial wastewater by studying feasibility of aqueous two-phase system eliminate phenolic compounds from systems. The was prepared using two hydrophilic ionic liquids based on dicyanamide anion, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazlium [EMim] [D...

The low-temperature and high-pressure crystal structures of cyclobutanol (C4H7OH) have been determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. At temperatures below 220 K, cyclobutanol crystallizes in the Aba2 space group (Z' = 2) and its crystal structure is composed of pseudo-threefold hydrogen-bonded molecular catemers [assigned as C_2;2(4) in graph-set notation], which lie parall...

In the present work, decomposition of o-chlorophenol (2-cp) was carried out using an ultrasonic process. The extent of 2-cp decomposition depends on several parameters such as ultrasound wave energy (ultrasonic amplitude), addition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), pH value (H+ concentration), ionic strength, and initial concentration of 2-cp. The experimental results showed that the decomposition o...

Simultaneous preconcentration of phenol, 2-chlorophenol, 3-chlorophenol, 4-chlorophenol, 2-nitrophenol, 4-nitrophenol, and 2,4-dinitrophenol was improved by using olive wood (OW) washed with ethanol then pyrolyzed at 200°C as preconcentrating sorbent. Various OW sorbents were prepared by either washing OW (with ethanol, ether, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran or n-hexane); or by pyrolysis (at 1...

Photoinduced absorption spectroscopy (PIAS) is used to probe the kinetics of oxidation 4-chlorophenol, 4CP, by P25 TiO2 with anodic bias or using a sacrificial electron acceptor and establishes first order for reaction h+ 4CP.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene (GA) and carbon nanospheres (CNSs) were prepared respectively using grass (Festucaarundinace) as the sole carbon resource by solvothermal method and characterized as adsorbent and photocatalyst for 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) removal in water. With H2O2/HNO3/H2SO4, the CNTs were firstly produced from grass (Festucaarundinace) at 300 °C by hydrolysis and oxidization, ...
