Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential of Agarose for Biosorption of Cu(II) In Aqueous SystemAnurag Pandey, Debabrata Bera, Anupam Shukla, Lalitagauri RayThe ability of agarose gel as an adsorbent for Cu(II) ions in aqueous solution was studied. The experiments were done as batch processes. Batch kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out under varying experimental conditions of contact time, Cu(II) ion concentration, adsorbent dose, temperature and pH. Adsorption equilibrium of agarose gel was reached within 4 h for agarose gel when … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReduction of Microbial Population in Cheese Whey by UV in a Single and Series Conventional ReactorsA.E. Ghaly, J. P. SinghIn this study, the effectiveness of two conventional UV reactors in series for the online sterilization of cheese whey was compared to that of a single conventional reactor. The single reactor and the two reactor series were tested at eleven flow rates (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50, 60 and 70 mL min-1) and five flow rates, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDye Removal from Aqueous Solution by using Adsorption on Treated Sugarcane BagasseS. Saiful Azhar, A. Ghaniey Liew, D. Suhardy et al.The use of cheap and ecofriendly adsorbents has been studied as an alternative substitution of activated carbon for the removal dyes from wastewater. Adsorbents prepared from sugarcane baggase-an agro industries waste was successfully used to remove the methyl red from an aqueous solution in a batch reactor. This study investigates the potential use of sugarcane baggase, pretreated with formaldehyde (PCSB) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 9,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential of Rice Husk and Rice Husk Ash for Phenol Removal in Aqueous SystemsA. H. Mahvi, A. Maleki, A. EslamiThe potential of rice husk and rice husk ash for phenol adsorption from aqueous solution was studied. Batch kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out under varying experimental conditions of contact time, phenol concentration, adsorbent dose and pH. Adsorption equilibrium of rice husk and rice husk ash was reached within 6 hours for phenolic concentration 150-500 μg/L and 3 hours … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 10,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordVisual Contact between Two Earth’s SatellitesM. E. Awad, M. A. Sharaf, E. H. KhatabProblem statement: In this study, an analytical expression for predicting mutually visible between Earth’s satellites is developed. Approach: A relative satellite-satellite visibility function is developed in terms of orbital elements for two satellites in the same orbital plane. Also, a simple computational algorithm is expressed to compute the visibility function. Results: This study presents a new and easy method to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 27 Feb 2012 · 6,983 accessesView PDFCite
