Water and wastewater treatment and reuse

This work analyzes the extraction behavior of transition heavy metal Zinc and other metal ions such as Copper, and Cadmium from hydrochloride aqueous solution in the absence of chelating agents by using a novel class of hydrophobic ionic liquids. Ionic liquid for this study was synthesized based on...

Air pollution and health

In this work, the aryldiazonium salts radical addition method has been used successfully to anchor 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) moieties onto the surface of Amberlite XAD-4 beads. The nitroaniline aryldiazonium salt was generated (in-situ) and covalently grafted onto Amberlite XAD-4 by aid of...

Multidisciplinary research in environmental science

Plant nanotoxicology is an emerging and less-explored area of research for the plant stress biologists. The present study assesses the toxicity of bulk-CuO and nano-CuO (size <50 nm and surface area = 29 m 2 g -1) on maize ( Zea mays cv. hybrids triple white Hi Tech.) seedlings. Five successive...

Rapid immobilisation of 8-hydroxyquinoline onto silica materials and its application for on-line solid-phase extraction of transition metals from environmental samples before ICP-OES monitoring

by

AlSuhaimi A.O. and McCready T.

Issue 1

General

Chelating resins based on immobilised oxines are attractive solid-phase extraction (SPE) materials in the analysis of trace metals from environmental samples. The most common immobilisation procedure for bonding oxines to silica supports is time-consuming and incompatible with “green chemistry”...
