Graphene nanosheets as efficient adsorbent for an azo dye removal: kinetic and thermodynamic studies
Graphene nanosheets were synthesized by a cost effective, simple, and environmentally friendly
procedure via burning Mg ribbons in dry ice. The graphene nanosheets were characterized by seven
methods including ...
Fast and efficient azo dye removal using engineered Fe/Pd bimetallic nanoparticles: Kinetics and thermodynamics studies
Water pollution is one of the most important environmental problems in human societies. It mainly
arises from wastewater released from household, industrial, and agricultural processes. These
effluents ...
Graphene nanosheets as an efficient adsorbent for an azo dye removal
The protection of environment is an important issue of societies. Industrial developments
lead to releasing of contaminants into the environment and so the destructive effects of
these pollutants are increasing. ...
Effects of different precursors on size and optical properties of ceria nanoparticles
Cerium oxide, ceria (CeO2), is one of the favourable nanoparticles (NPs) that possesses many remarkable
properties so that it can be used in medicine, chemistry, environment, energy, information, industry, and
so ...
Successful degradation of Reactive Black 5 by engineered Fe/Pd nanoparticles: Mechanism and kinetics aspects
Fe/Pd nanoparticles were used to degrade an azo dye, Reactive Black 5 (RB5) in aqueous solution. Fe/Pd
nanoparticles were prepared by a simple successive reduction method. Transmission electron microscopy
verified ...
STRUCTURAL CHARACTERIZATION AND OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF CERIA NANOPARTICLES
Ceria (CeO2) is a cubic fluorite-type oxide in which each cerium site is surrounded by eight oxygen sites in fcc arrangement and each oxygen site has a tetrahedron cerium site. Ceria is a technologically important rare ...
Fabrication of cerium oxide nanoparticles: Characterization and optical properties
Ceria (CeO2) is a technologically important rare earth material because of its unique properties and various
engineering and biological applications. A facile and rapid method has been developed to prepare
ceria ...
Improvement of heat dissipation in agarose gel electrophoresis by metal oxide nanoparticles
Joule heating is a primary limitation in slab gel electrophoresis which is a gold standard method
in
biochemistry and biotechnology. In this paper, we introduced an innovative new class of heat
transfer ...
Nanometer-sized cerium oxide particles for solid phase extraction of trace amounts of mercury in real samples prior to cold vapor atomic adsorption spectrometry
Ceria (CeO2) nanoparticles were synthesized using the microwave-assisted heating technique and employed as a sorbent for preconcentration of trace amounts of Hg(II) ions from aqueous solutions for the first time. The ...
Removal of Methyl Orange from Aqueous Solutions by Ferromagnetic Fe/Ni Nanoparticles
Herein, the removal of methyl orange (MO), a monoazo dye, from aqueous solutions was investigated using bimetallic ferromagnetic Fe/Ni nanoparticles (NPs) with the average particle size of 12-16 nm. The effect of contact ...
