Nitrate is a common groundwater pollutant all over the world. In some regions of Iran, its levels are high enough to cause serious problems to human health and the environment . The objectives of this work were to evaluate the efficiency of Fe-doped TiO 2 nanoparticles at removing nitrate from...

Photocatalysis is a promising method for eliminating the volatile organic compounds emitted from various industrial processes because mild or ambient conditions are used. Titanium dioxide is commonly used as photocatalyst and ultraviolet light is utilized for decomposing gas phase pollutants. In the...

This study was conducted to assess the removal efficiency of Di-n-butyl phthalate (DnBP) from aqueous medium using the photo-Fenton process. The Fenton's reagent that consists of a mixture of hydrogen peroxide (H2O) and ferrous ions (Fe2+) was used to generate the hydroxyl radical (OH0) that attacks...

Results of the total column ozone and ultraviolet (UV-B) erythemally weighted irradiance measurements at the ground-based solar monitoring station at the Kishinev (Moldova) are presented. Diffuse and global components of solar UV-B erythemal irradiance on horizontal plane were continuously measured...
