Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUsing Permeable Reactive Barriers to Remediate Heavy Metal-Contaminated Groundwater through a Laboratory Column ExperimentSomean Yin, Gemunu Herath, Sokchhay Heng, Senajith KalpageRecently, groundwater sources are being polluted by various activities such as agriculture, livestock, decentralized wastewater treatment systems and acid rain. Groundwater can also be polluted by landfill leachate, sewage, mine tailings, non-engineered deep well disposal of liquid waste and seepage from industrial waste lagoons. There are many studies reported contaminated groundwater remediation using Permeable Reactive Barrier systems (PRBs) and many … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 Mar 2017 · 8,761 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDisinfection of Water using Supported Titanium Dioxide PhotocatalystsShamkumar Pandurang Deshmukh, Dattatray Krishna Dalavi, Yuvaraj Mohan HungeTiO2 based photocatalyst has potential material for disinfection of harmful pathogens as well as removal of organic compounds. The formation of reactive oxygen species is a key part for overall process but aggregation and band gap constraint explore a new dimension to use of support for propounding its physicochemical properties. Therefore, the modification of TiO2 using various support alters photocatalytic … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2020 · 7,261 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomechanically Inspired Machines, Driven by Muscle Like Acting NiTi AlloysAntonio Apicella, Raffaella Aversa, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe Shape of the Memory Alloy (SMA) is a very promising class of metallic materials with interesting non-linear properties such as Pseudo-Elasticity (PE), memory (MEM) and damping capacity due to high mechanical hysteresis and internal friction. Research shows a bioinventory approach to Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) design, a class of intelligent materials capable of reacting to a pulse (thermal for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 23 May 2018 · 8,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Stability Analysis in a Two-Step Reactive Cylindrical StockpileR.S. Lebelo, R.K. Mahlobo, K.C. MoloiThermal stability analysis in a cylindrical stockpile of reactive material undergoing a two-step low-temperature oxidation reaction is studied in this article. The reactant consumption in this case is neglected and heat transfer with thermal stability are investigated by application of the energy equation. The complicated combustion process results with nonlinear interactions and hence the nonlinear partial differential equation governing the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 6 Dec 2017 · 7,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRice Starch as Coating Materials for Microencapsulation of Gamma Oryzanol to Improve its StabilityAnuchita Moongngarm, Jeerasupa Amornpan, Amaraphon Homduang et al.Gamma Oryzanol (GO) is a phytochemical with the ability to prevent oxidation. GO is normally degraded through oxidation by oxygen and sunlight. Microencapsulation is an important technique used to retard oxidation. This study compared rice starch and Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) as coating materials and investigated the stability of encapsulated GO during storage under activated oxidation conditions. The GO was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 8 · 27 Aug 2016 · 7,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBasic and Reactive Dyes Sorption Enhancement of Rice Hull through Chemical ModificationSiew-Teng Ong, Pei-Sin Keng, Chnoong-Kheng LeeProblem statement: Many studies have been conducted on the removal of either anionic or cationic dyes. However, as a mixture of dyes does commonly exist together in wastewater, therefore it is of great interest to have a material that can remove both types of dyes. Approach: To prepare an inexpensive and efficient sorbent by chemically modifying rice hull for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreliminary Tests Concerning Zero-Valent Iron Efficiency in Inorganic Pollutants RemediationSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiProblem statement: This study was aimed to a preliminary evaluation of the applicability of granular Zero-Valent Iron (ZVI) to the on site remediation of groundwater polluted by inorganic contaminants by means of a Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB). A particular interest was devoted to groundwater impacted by Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) that was caused by the oxidation of metal sulphide minerals … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,789 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStructural Colour from Optical Phenomena Caused by Interference with a Thin or Multilayer Film, Photonic Nanocrystals, Light Scattering and Diffraction Grating EffectRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio ApicellaThe paper presents the Ion Plating Plasma Assisted technology that is applied in the area of surface functionalization with the purpose of preserving the structural colour and relics. The interferometric structural colours applied on titanium surfaces were used and tested together with nano-transparent and at the same time achromatic films on the very old ceramic artifact. In order to test … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 13 Aug 2020 · 6,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAssessing Community Health Risks: Proactive Vs Reactive SamplingSarah Taylor, Chelsea Papadopoulos, Sarah Vieillet, Peter Di MarcoProblem statement: A considerable number of native birds died in the West Australian coastal town of Esperance and surroundings during late 2006 and early 2007, which raised community concerns about environmental contamination. Forensic investigations of dead birds suggested that lead may have been the causative agent. At the time, lead and nickel, as well as iron ore and other materials, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,840 accessesView PDFCite
