Adsorption of chloroform from aqueous solution by nano -TiO2

In this study, nano-TiO2 was employed for the adsorption of chloroform from aqueous solution in batch equilibrium experiments to investigate its adsorption properties. The effects of pH, initial chloroform concentration and nano-TiO2 dosage were also investigated. Optimal conditions for chloroform removal by nano-TiO2 have been then identified. Results of equilibrium experiments showed that the solution […]

Synthesis of ZnO-nanoparticles by microwave assisted sol-gel method and its role in photocatalytic degradation of food dye Tartrazine (Acid Yellow 23)

ZnO- nanoparticles with an average particle size of 24 nm were successfully synthesized using the microwave assisted sol- gel technique. Structural and morphological properties of the nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Energy disperse spectrum (EDS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The band gap energy was measured […]
