an ion imprinted polymer (iip) based on aniline-formaldehyde was synthesized and then modified with extra aniline as cross-linker in the presence and absence of sr (ii) as the template to produce ion imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde) (iipaf) and non imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde) (nipaf). the sorbent was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and was used for solid ph...

In this research, the zeolite sodalite, as an inorganic ion exchange material, was chemically produced in the template-free synthesis and evaluated in order to facilitate the sorption of strontium ions from aqueous solutions in batch operations onto acid treated zeolite with dilute H2SO4 solutions. The following indicates what the batch experiments included: a sorbent amount of 0.25 g in 100 mL...

We introduce the notion of pseudo-algebraicity to study atomic models of first order theories (equivalently models of a complete sentence of Lω1,ω). Theorem: Let T be any complete first-order theory in a countable language with an atomic model. If the pseudo-minimal types are not dense, then there are 2א1 pairwise non-isomorphic atomic models of T , each of size א1.

We consider the evaluation of first-order queries over classes of databases with local bounded expansion. This class was introduced by Nešetřil and Ossona de Mendez and generalizes many well known classes of databases, such as bounded degree, bounded tree width or bounded expansion. It is known that over classes of databases with local bounded expansion, first-order sentences can be evaluated i...

in this study adsorption of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene (cnb) from aqueous solutions onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) was surveyed. the effect of some key parameters such as ph (2-10), carbon nanotubes dosage (0.02-0.1 mg/250ml), cnb concentration (2- 16 mg/l), and temperature (20,30,40,50°c) were investigated. the results showed that, the variation of initial ph and cnb concentration ex...

background: synthetic dyes have several harmful effects on human health as well as aquatic life. in this study, activated carbon (av-ac), based on aloe vera leaf shells, was used as a novel agricultural adsorbent, one that is low-cost and available for the removal of congo red (cr) as a carcinogenic dye from aqueous solutions. methods: in the batch system, the influence of different parameters ...

background and objectives: activated carbon is an adsorbent which is mostly employed in order to remove dye from aqueous solutions; however, commercial activated carbon is expensive and this is considered as an obstacle for its usage. therefore, the present study aimed to use waste paper as an inexpensive precursor to produce activated carbon. materials and methods: in the present study, koh wa...

Chemically modified kenaf core fibres were prepared via esterification in the presence of citric acid (CA). The adsorption kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out under different conditions to examine the adsorption efficiency of CA-treated kenaf core fibres towards methylene blue (MB). The adsorption capacity of the kenaf core fibres increased significantly after the citric acid treatme...

Removal of Methylene Blue (MB) and Crystal Violet (CV) dyes from monocomponent and binary aqueous solutions by water hyacinth-E. Crassipes roots fixed on alginate (a low-cost adsorbent) has been investigated. The extent of adsorption was evaluated as a function of solution pH, initial dye concentration, and bead biomass loading. Kinetic sorption data were analysed by widely used models: pseudo-...
