Background: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of various concentrations of nano-silica on the germination process of fenugreek seeds. The agro-waste materials such as rice husk, corn cobs and bagasse were used as a precursor for synthesizing nano-silica. Moreover, their formation was confirmed...

This study examines the use of Co3O4 nanocomposite as a photo-catalyst in aqueous solution for photocatalytic degradation of dyes under UV. It has been observed that substrate concentrations, catalyst, pH, oxidant present and temperature, effect on dye degradation. The characterization of...

Chitosan-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (CS-ZnO NPs) were meticulously fabricated using the sol-gel methodology. The CS-ZnO NPs underwent comprehensive analytical assessments, employing advanced techniques, encompassing X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV visible (UV-Vis)...

In this research, a simple method for the preparation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4NPs) with an average size of 38.05 nm via co-precipitation was investigated. X-ray diffraction (DRX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were used to characterize obtained Fe3O4...

The purpose of this research was to comprehensively evaluate the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine using a novel fuel blend comprising a hybrid nano-emulsified JME-Diesel blend (B20). The fuel blend consisted of a mixture of 50 ppm of ferric oxide (Fe2O3) and Silicon...

A green synthesis using a simple precipitation method produced zinc oxide (ZnO), leaf extractions of zinc oxide as Aerva lanata (Al-ZnO) and Millettia pinnata (Mp-ZnO), copper-doped Al-CZnO and Mp-CZnO nanoparticles (NAPs). They were characterized for their functional group, structural...
