Orthorhombic molybdenum oxide (α-MoO3) samples were prepared via calcination. During this process, the ratio of (0 4 0)/(1 1 0) or 0)/(0 2 1) crystallographic planes was fine-tuned by applying different calcination temperatures. Textural characterization carried out to comprehend their differences in photocatalytic and adsorption applications. Except for methyl orange, all tested dyes (methylen...

Toluidine Blue O (TBO) is a cationic dye which is extensively used in the industries. In the present paper a simple and efficient wet chemical method was introduced for removal of TBO from waste aqueous solution. Magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes were synthesized using commercially available multi-wall carbon nanotubes and magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles which were examined for removal o...

This paper presents a systematic study of the surface chemistry, porous texture and adsorptive characteristics of prepared new activated carbon using Persian mesquite grain. Several techniques and methodologies such as, proximate analysis, N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoe...

In this research we have developed a treatment method for textile wastewater by TiO2/SiO2-based magnetic nanocomposite. Textile wastewater includes a large variety of dyes and chemicals and needs treatments. This manuscript presents a facile method for removing dyes from the textile wastewater by using TiO2/SiO2-based nanocomposite (Fe3O<su...

Capsular polysaccharides (SPS) are an integral component of gram-negative bacteria, and also have potential use as vaccine. In this paper, interactions of SPS isolated from Klebsiella strains K20 and K51 with cationic dyes pinacyanol chloride (PCYN) and acridine orange (AO) were studied by absorbance and fluorescence measurements. Both the polysaccharides having glucuronic acid as the potential...
