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...

The microbial consortia incorporated in bio concrete should have traits such as high alkali resistance and the ability to form endospores to overcome the mechanical and chemical stresses produced during concrete preparation. The primary intent of our work is to segregate and identify the calcium...

Several chemical coagulants previously utilize for wastewater treatment with significant performance in removing heavy metals and other parameters. However, their cost effective and the residual of toxic chemical precipitates that pose problems to human health and the environment. Therefore, using...

The Conversion of SO2 by Hydrogen Oxidation Branching Chain Reaction A.A. Arutyunyan Institute of Chemical Physics after A.B. Nalbandyan NAS of The Republic of Armenia, 5/2 Paruyr Sevak St., Yerevan 0014, Republic of Armenia E-mail: harhasmik@mail.ru The process of SО2 conversion in the hydrogen...

Rainfall is one of the primary sources of chemical inputs in forest ecosystems, and the basis of forest nutrient cycling. Urban trees play an important role in the built environment, reducing the rainfall reaching the ground by rainfall interception. To explore the variations of nutrient cycling and...

This study describes the removal of Cr (VI) ions from aqueous solutions using silver oxide/sawdust nanocomposite (Ag2O/SD NC) that was prepared using the chemical precipitation method. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR)...

Chemical precipitation is a suitable method for the recovery and removal of ammonium in water and a fertilizer known as MAP (magnesium ammonium phosphate; MgNH4PO4.6H2O; struvite) is obtained. Additionally, the advantage of this method is that environmental conditions do not have any effect compared...

Multivariate statistical techniques involving factor analysis (FA) and dendrograms for hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) were performed on nine water samples from Ennore Creek, Chennai, Tamil Nadu to assess the spatial distribution of water quality in each of three seasons. The water samples were...

This paper aims to study a relative new technology, the online generation and application of ferrate(VI), for sewage treatment, from pilot to full scale trials at Hailsham North Wastewater Treatment Plant of Southern Water Ltd of UK. The work presented in this paper has significant impact on the use...

Although solar salterns worldwide use seawater of identical chemical composition as the raw material for salt production, the size and quality of the halite crystals that precipitate in the crystallizer ponds is highly variable. Biological processes have been implicated to be responsible for the...

Records of precipitation in Macau are collected from three local monitoring stations from 1993 to 2003. Chemical compositions of precipitation are analyzed to reveal the causes of wet deposition in Macau. The review of annual rainfall volumes and the volume weighted annual pH values over this period...

The subject of this article is the estimation of quantitative (hydrological) and qualitative parameters in the catchment of Ronnea (1800 Km2, located in south western Sweden) through the application of the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). SWAT is a river basin model that was developed for the...

Chemical characteristics of wet precipitation were measured in Acapulco, Cancun, Tapachula, Puerto Morelos and Tropical Pacific Ocean; from August 1999 to October 2001. The samples were analyzed for pH, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, NH4 +, SO4 2-, NO3 - and Cl-. Ionic abundance revealed a significant...

This review provides a general overview of the application of chemical oxidation to hydrophobic contaminants in the form of non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs). Three types of chemical oxidation processes, conventional activated persulfate, permanganate, and ozonation, along with three advanced...
