an approach to recycle precious metals of cathode materials from spent lithium cobalt oxide batteries by using organic citric acid and hydrogen peroxide has been studied in this paper. the effects of molar ratio, solid-liquid ratio, reaction time and temperature on leaching efficiency of cobalt were investigated respectively. meanwhile the leaching kinetics equation of cobalt was established, a...

The interaction between the peptide melittin from bee venom with multilamellar liposomes of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine or egg yolk phosphatidylcholine has been studied by the method of temperature scanning densitometry, yielding information on the specific volume of the association products and on the changes during the thermotropic transition of the lipids. The effects of the interaction w...

A new method to measure intracellular volume in Dunaliella was developed, where lithium ions are used as monitors of the extracellular volume. Li(+) is shown to be impenetrable to the intracellular volume, insignificantly absorbed to the algae, and is rapidly and evenly distributed within the extracellular volume. The method is suggested to be free of several limitations and consistent errors p...

Abstract Bi–Cu alloys may potentially be used for thermal energy storage or as a catalyst methane pyrolysis. For application research and simulations, it is necessary to know the reliable thermophysical properties of liquid alloys. Density (25, 50, 75 at. pct Cu) was measured with dilatometric method over 971 K 1500 range. decreases linearly temperature all compositions. The molar volume calcul...

the study was conducted to evaluate the effect of seed priming on root growth of two barley cultivars (hordeum vulgare l.) under salinity stress was performed in phytogel. the treatments included two cultivars of barely (yusuf and maquie), levels of seed priming (control, hydro-priming and priming with 4.35 g l-1 of urea) and four levels of nacl salinity stress (0, 0.2, 0.3 m). the experiment w...

The aim of this research was to evaluate the effective parameters such as pH, current density (mA/cm2), H2O2/Fe2+ molar ratio, volume ratio of H2O2 to pharmaceutical wastewater (PhW) (ml/l) and reaction time (min) on the electro-Fenton process for the ibuprofen (as a pharmaceutical waste in water) removal. Since a synthetic wastewater with the same concentration of ibuprofen in a real pharmaceu...
