Vanadium supported on highly ordered nanoporous silica (VOx-LUS-1) was synthesized and characterized by XRD, Nitrogen adsorption‑desorption isotherms and UV-visible spectrophotometer. Direct oxidation of benzene to phenol in liquid phase by H2O2 peroxide were examined by using various solvents (methanol, acetone, acetic acid, acetonitryl). The maximum yield (25%) and selectivity (73%) of the ph...

In order to study the influences of functionalized groups onto the adsorption of tetracycline, we prepared a series of amino and amino-Fe3+ complex mesoporous silica adsorbents with diverse content of amino and Fe3+ groups (named N,N-SBA15 and Fe-N,N-SBA15). The resulting mesoporous silica adsorbents were fully characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrom...

in  this  study,  amino  functional  groups  were  chemically  bonded  to  the  surface  of  newly synthesized  kit-6  mesoporous  magnetite  nanoparticles  (mmnps)  by  post-toluene  reflux synthesis method.  this method  treats  calcined mesoporous  nanoparticles with  the  functional organosilanes.  physical  and  chemical  structures  of  the  synthesized  mesoporous  magnetite nanoparticle...

The present study investigated the adsorption-desorption behaviour of triazophos on Indian soils at 10, 20 and 40°C using batch equilibrium technique. Results revealed that adsorption isotherms were explained better by Freundlich model and adsorption coefficient (Kf) decreased with increase in temperature indicating that adsorption was affected strongly by temperature. Moreover thermodynamic an...

Scutellarein-7-O-beta-D-glucuronide (SG) and apigenin-7-O-beta-D-glucuronide (AG) are two major bioactive constituents with known pharmacological effects in Erigeron multiradiatus. In this study, a simple method for preparative separation of the two flavone glucuronides was established with macroporous resins. The performance and adsorption characteristics of eight macroporous resins including ...

Cyanobacterial hepatotoxins present a risk to public health when present in drinking water supplies. Existing removal strategies, although efficient, are not economically viable or practical for remote Australian communities and developing nations. Bank filtration is a natural process and a potential low cost, toxin removal strategy. Batch studies were conducted in 12 texturally diverse soils t...

A new sorbent was synthesized by anchoring 7-amino-4-azaheptyltrimetoxisilane, freshly prepared, to silica gel, producing 7-amino-4-azaheptyl anchored silica gel (AAHSG). This material was characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR), elemental analysis (CHN), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. Isotherms of the adsorption of Fe3+, Fe2+ and Cu2+ on AAHSG were recorded, which indicated ...

boron (b) is an important plant essential micronutrient whose availability is influenced by many soil factors. adsorption–desorption processes play a major role in governing the solubility of boron in soil solution and, consequently, its availability to growing plants. to assess the effect of sodium adsorption ratio (sar) on availability of b, adsorption of b was investigated in a sampled calca...

The statistical rate theory (SRT) fundamental kinetic equation for the Langmuir model of adsorption reveals some features which are difficult to understand. These are the infinitely high adsorption rate for zero coverage limit, infinitely high desorption rate at full saturation of the surface and dependence of the desorption rate on the adsorbate pressure. These features do not allow for a corr...

A novel adsorbent (AMPS-silica) was synthesized by bounding AMPS (2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid) onto silica surface, which functioned with γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane reagent. The adsorbent was characterized by nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurement, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and potentiometric titration analysis. The TGA result indicated that the surface modifi...
