Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of ZnO Nano Rods for the Batch Adsorption of Cr(VI): A Study of Kinetics and IsothermsSushma Kamath, Venu Gopal Vishwakarma Ramanjaneyalu, Susmita KamilaThe present study reports the synthesis of nano Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and its adsorption behaviour. The ZnO obtained by precipitation method were found to be well-defined nano rods arranged like flower. The shape, size and structure of ZnO were characterized from X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. These nano rods were utilized for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 12 Apr 2019 · 8,072 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOccurrence of Avian Influenza H5N1 among Chicken, Duck Farms and Human in EgyptMohamed S. Diab, Mohamed S. Abd El Hafez, Mohamed A. Ashry, Wael K. ElfeilAvian influenza (AI) H5N1 virus consider a potential threat to the poultry industry with sever zoonotic effect associated with a high risk on human being associated with the poultry production. The disease become endemic in Egypt and cause more than 359 confirmed human infection cases in the last few years. Samples (serum and tissues) collected from 160 poultry farms that … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2019 · 7,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of EDTA on Cadmium and Zinc Uptake by Sugarcane Grown in Contaminated SoilPantawat Sampanpanish, Natthakan TantitheerasakThe effect of EDTA on cadmium and zinc uptake by sugarcane (Saccarumofficinarum L.) grown in contaminated soil was investigated. Sugarcane was grown in pots for 1 month and EDTA was added at concentration levels of 0(control), 0.5, 1 and 2 millimole per 1 kilogram of soil. Plants were harvested at 2, 4, 6 and 8 months. Soil samples were analyzed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2015 · 7,265 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Copper from Aqueous Solution using Tunisian ClayN. Boujelben, S. Gharab, F. Bouhamed et al.Natural adsorbents such as clay was used to replace expensive imported synthetic adsorbents. In this study, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to characterize the used sorbent (clays C). Batch experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of contact time, solution pH and temperature on copper removal onto used sorbent from aqueous solution. Equilibrium … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2015 · 7,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeat-Modeling of Microwave Assisted Epoxidation of Palm Acid OilN. Saifuddin, L. Wei Zhan, K. Xin NingProblem statement: While microwave chemistry could well be the most convenient, rapid and energy-saving way to initiate a chemical reaction, the issues of thermal versus microwave specific effect remain unaddressed. Approach: A three-dimensional Finite Element Model (FEM) was developed to predict temperature profile during the enzymatic epoxidation of palm acid oil using microwave heating. Three-dimensional partial differential equations are formulated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution onto a Low-Cost Natural Jordanian TripoliAtef S. ALzaydienProblem statement: It is well documented that lead is one of contaminants of industrial wastewaters and its pollution exists in the wastewater of many industries. As a result, recent research has focused on the development of cost effective alternatives using various natural sources and industrial wastes. In this setting, the use of low-cost agricultural materials, waste and residues for recovering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Convective Heat-Transfer Coefficient in a Buried ExchangerTaoufik Mnasri, Rached Ben Younès, Maher Raddaoui, Salem ElouraginiThis study presents analytical models allowing to study a forced convection laminar flow in non-established dynamic and thermic regimes. We treated a flow in a bitubular exchanger in permanent thermal contact with a semi-infinite medium, such as the ground. The wall temperature as well as the wall heat flux evolve in the course of time until a quasi-steady mode. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Mercury from chlor-alkali Industry Wastewater using Acetobacter xylinum CelluloseA. Rezaee, J. Derayat, S. B. Mortazavi et al.In this study, the removal of mercury ions by cellulose of Acetobacter xylinum was investigated in the synthetic and chlor-alkali wastewater. Biofilms of Acetobacter xylinum were grown in laboratory column bioreactors. The biofilms were continuously treated with sterile synthetic model wastewater or nonsterile, neutralized chloralkali wastewater.The extent of adsorption was studied as function of pH, adsorbent dose and contact time. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 8,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe SEIR Dynamical Transmission Model of Dengue Disease with and Without the Vertical Transmission of the VirusPratchaya Chanprasopchai, I. Ming Tang, Puntani PongsumpunThe transmission of dengue disease when there is a possibility of Vertical Transmission (VT) is studied using mathematical modeling. In the normal case, the mosquito is infected by the dengue virus when it bites an infectious human being. Evidence is gathering that the mosquitoes can also be infected through sexual contact with infected male mosquito. To see the possible consequence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 12 · 2 Jan 2018 · 9,057 accessesView PDFCite
