in this study a sample of bentonite obtained from semnan mines, was modified by a surfactant to prepare an organoclay with high surface area. bet analysis showed that the modification increased its surface significantly. the prepared sorbent was used for removal of dyes and other organic pollutants from a waste water obtained from ekbatan textile company. adsorption was studied in various times...

in the country, reducing water resources and increasing water losses in the various methods of surface irrigation, has increased attention, super drip irrigation method, especially drip tape irrigation. one of the techniques are used in cultivation of early sweet corn, the use of plastic mulch. using this technique, the reserve temperature conditions for plant growth and early maturity, resulti...

Hydrothermal treatment of wood material products with many interesting properties such as enhanced dimensional stability, lower equilibrium moisture content and increased biological durability. The effects of hydrothermal treatment on dimensional stability, oven dry density and water absorption of beech wood (Fagus Orientalis) naturally grown, has been studied in present research that extremely...

Intensive aquaculture in recirculating systems is rapidly developing, and with it arises the need for reliable treatment systems. To enable reuse of water in these systems, biological treatment is considered the most economically feasible approach. In this review the advantages and disadvantages of some of the most commonly used biological treatment systems are examined. Using as a comparator t...
