The presence of aluminum in the weathering crust leaching rare earth ore harms subsequent extraction and separation earths. High-quality production processes must reduce content their feed liquid. Groups containing lone pairs electrons can form stable insoluble complexes with metal ions under certain conditions. In this paper, 3-hydroxyphenylphosphoryl propionic acid is used to selectively sepa...

In this work ternary CdZnS thin films were prepared by chemical bath deposition by doping CdS with different concentrations of Zn ions. The chemical bath comprised of cadmium nitrate [Cd(NO3)2], as a source of Cd 2+, zinc nitrate [ZnNO3)2]as source of Zn 2+ , thiourea [(NH2)2CS] as a source of sulphide ions [S 2]in the presence of ammonia [NH3] as a complexing agent. The competition mechanisms ...

In this study, an investigate effect of moisture absorption by ranitidine and resinates used to improve stability of ranitidine hydrochloride tablets. Moisture absorption by ranitidine at three different level of relative humidity (RH) has been studied. Percentage of moisture absorption at 22% was low as compared to 57% and 75% RH. To eliminate deliquescent tendency of drug, weak cation-exchang...

A rapid, simple and cost effective solidified floating organic drop microextraction (SFODME) and flow injection flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination (FI-FAAS) method for copper was developed. In this method, a free microdrop of 1-undecanol containing 1,5-diphenyl carbazide (DPC) as the complexing agent was transferred to the surface of an aqueous sample including Cu(II) ions, whi...

The biodegradability of four novel diethanolamine derivative complexing agents was examined by using two biodegradation tests standardised by OECD (301B and 301F). Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) were employed as reference substances. Biodegradation of the new complexing agents was studied both with unacclimated and acclimated inocula as well...

We investigated a new kind of activated carbon named gaiasafe-Formstoff as an agent for powerful heavy metal reduction. This activated carbon contains highly dispersed sulfide compounds. Our investigations with lead containing wastewaters showed an outstanding metal sulfide precipitation power of the new agent. The lead reduction rates are independent of wastewater parameters like lead concentr...
