Boron adsorption onto lime soil from Balıkesir University campus was studied to evaluate the effects of irrigation water cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+ and Na+) clays (kaolinite, montmorillonite, clinoptilolite clays). The concentrations for boron were in range 0-1,450 mg/L 0-700 mg/L, respectively. experimental maximum capacity cation effect 0.764 mg/g this value seen obtain at high middle concentrat...

The objective of this study was to assess the effect of clinoptilolite (a natural zeolite) on growth and performance of broilers as well as on the quality of their litter. A total of 5,200 one-day old broiler chickens (Cobb 500) were used in two consecutive rounds lasting 42 days each. The broilers were given free and continuous access to a nutritionally non-limiting diet (in meal form) that wa...

There is limited research comparing nutrient removal in concentrated and dilute waste streams. Accordingly, the goal of this was to study effect dilution on ammonium potassium from real hydrolyzed urine using natural zeolites. The performance two zeolites, clinoptilolite chabazite, studied compared batch equilibrium experiments at four levels defined as volume divided by total solution (express...

Long-term changes in species of copper-silver bimetallic systems on natural clinoptilolite obtained by ion exchange Cu2+ and Ag+ then reduced at different temperatures were studied. Even after storage under ambient conditions, XRD UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra indicate the presence nanospecies larger particles copper silver. Scanning electron microscopy aged samples, highest temperature (4...

A total of 448 Ross 308 male broiler chickens were assigned to seven treatments with four replicates, each containing 16 chicks. The birds were reared from d 21 to 42 and effects of physical sizes (ad libitum by a basal commercial broiler diet with 3050 Kcal/Kg ME and 19.06% CP/Kg from 21 to 42 d. The chickens which received clinoptilolite (1.5% with particle size of 0.4-0.8 mm) showed a signif...

In this research, the removal of lead from the aqueous solution was investigated using natural nontoxic zeolite (clinoptilolite) as a low-cost adsorbent in order to reduce human exposure to it. The clinoptilolite zeolite obtained from the Semnan area was characterized by X-ray diffraction pattern, FTIR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The central composite design (CCD) defin...

in this paper cufe2o4, nanocrystalline powders were prepared. also, the supported cu ferrite was obtained by impregnation of the supports with cu and fe nitrates solutions, for calcination temperature 450 ºc. the samples were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction (xrd) and fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir). photocatalytic degradation of acid red 206 in water was studied. cufe2...

The treatment of animal slurry is used to improve management on a farm scale. aim this laboratory study was assess the effects addition additives biochar, alum and clinoptilolite before mechanical separation whole pig (WS) characteristics emission NH3, N2O, CO2 CH4 from solid (SF) liquid fractions (LF). were mixed with WS (5% w/w), followed by separation, in total 12 treatments 3 replicates, in...

The objective of this research is to find an economically attractive alternative method for hydrodesulfurization of petroleum fractions and to select a suitable adsorbent for this process.Deep desulfurization of transportation fuels (gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels) is being mandated by governments and is also needed for future fuel cell applications. However, it is extremely difficult and ...
