Water reuse: Brackish water desalination using Prosopis juliflora
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Prosopis juliflora is a plant species that have the potential to yield significant environmental and economic benefits. It is used widely as a source of biofuel, food, feed and as an adsorbent in water treatment. In this ...
Smart Synthesis of Trimethyl Ethoxysilane (TMS) Functionalized Core–Shell Magnetic Nanosorbents Fe3O4@SiO2: Process Optimization and Application for Extraction of Pesticides
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In the current study, a smart approach for synthesizing trimethyl ethoxysilane–decorated magnetic-core silica-nanoparticles (TMS-mcSNPs) and its effectiveness as nanosorbents have been exploited. While the magnetite core ...
Activation of kaolin with minimum solvent consumption by microwave heating
(
Mineralogical Society
, 2014 , Article)
A kaolin clay was activated with 1.0 M H2SO4 solution at minimum liquid to solid ratio (L/S) using microwave heating. The optimum experimental conditions for activation were L/S ratio 3.0 mL 1 M H2SO4 per gram kaolin, ...
Free vibration of FG-GPLRC conical panel on elastic foundation
(
Techno-Press
, 2020 , Article)
Present research is aimed to investigate the free vibration behavior of functionally graded (FG) nanocomposite conical panel reinforced by graphene platelets (GPLs) on the elastic foundation. Winkler-Pasternak elastic ...
Uptake of Reactive Black 5 by pumice and walnut activated carbon: Chemistry and adsorption mechanisms
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
The potential of using pumice and walnut wood activated carbon as low-cost adsorbents for the removal of the diazo dye Reactive Black 5 (RB5) from aqueous solutions was investigated. The Langmuir isotherm fit to the data ...
Volatility transmission across currencies and commodities with US uncertainty measures
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
This paper uses the Multi-chain Markov Switching model (MCMS) conditioned on US uncertainty measures (VIX, VIX-oil and FSI) to examine the patterns of volatility transmission across the resource, major and safe haven ...
Correlation between synthesis variation of 2-alkylquinolones and the antifungal activity of aBurkholderia cepacia strain collection
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2012 , Article)
Twenty epiphytic and rhizospheric bacterial strains harbouring strong antifungal activities were isolated from the Tunisian environment. This group of bacteria was identified as Burkholderia cepacia genomovar I using 16S ...
A novel method for metals extraction from municipal solid waste using a microwave-assisted acid extraction
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
This paper investigated the development and evaluation of an extraction process for copper, chromium, cobalt, iron, manganese, zinc, lead, cadmium, barium, magnesium, and vanadium from municipal solid waste incineration ...
Exploring the compass of potential changes induced by climate warming in plant communities
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
New models are required to predict the impacts of future climate change on biodiversity. A move must be made away from individual models of single species toward approaches with synergistically interacting species. The ...
Electropolymerized phenol derivatives as permselective polymers for biosensor applications
(
The Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
Amperometric biosensors are often coated with a polymeric permselective film to avoid electroactive
interference by reducing agents present in the target medium. Phenylenediamine and phenol monomers are commonly used to ...
