Dr.N.Kanthavelkumaran et al. View all

Issue 2

Sustainable Energy

This study's two primary goals are to synthesize bioethanol from biowaste and examine its thermal characteristics. Bioethanol must first undergo a comprehensive assessment of its thermal characteristics in order to be approved for usage in spark-ignition engines. A multi-step procedure comprising...

Nanomaterials in the environment: applications and effects

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...

Muhammad Yousaf Arshad et al. View all

Issue 4

Solid Waste Management

Pectin extraction from various fruits and its application in food products have been debatable issues for ages. We conducted our research on the biomass wastes of the food industry, primarily banana (Musa Acuminata) peels, in order to develop a modified procedure for the effective extraction of this...

Adsorptive Capacity of Malachite Green onto Mg/M3+ (M3+=Al and Cr) LDHs

by

Aldes Lesbani et al. View all

Issue 1

Water and Wastewater Treatment

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) of MgM3+ (M3+=Al and Cr) were synthesized by coprecipitation method to form Mg/Al and Mg/Cr LDHs. The materials were applied as adsorbents of malachite green in aqueous solution. The physical properties of Mg/Al and Mg/Cr were analyzed using XRD, FTIR, BET and TGDTA...

Applications of FTIR spectroscopy in environmental studies supported by two dimensional correlation analysis

by

Mecozzi M., Moscato F., Pietroletti M., Quarto F., Oteri F. and Cicero A.M.

Issue 4

General

In this paper, we report the joint use of FTIR spectroscopy and two dimensional correlation analysis (2DCORR) applied to the identification of the aggregation pathways of natural organic matter (i.e. humic substance) extracted from marine sediments and in the second case of study, to the comparison...

Evaluation of arsenic effects in Vicia faba by FTIR and FTNIR spectroscopy

by

Sturchio E., Napolitano P., Beni C. and Mecozzi M.

Issue 1

General

Arsenic is an ubiquitous and highly toxic metalloid widely distributed in the environment through both natural and anthropogenic pathways (Liu et al., 2004) and its presence in food composites is a matter of concerns to the well being of both humans and animals. In fact, As has been recently found...
