A charcoal was produced from primary pulp mill sludge and then used for the adsorptive removal of diclofenac, salicylic acid, ibuprofen acetaminophen. main aim to assess utilization this material tertiary treatment sewage. For purpose, adsorption selected pharmaceuticals secondary effluent a sewage plant (STP) compared with their ultrapure water. Differences in kinetics equilibrium were evident between four considered. However, differences two aqueous matrixes considered negligible. It...
This study evaluates the possibility of adding value to cork granulates, byproducts processing, by using them as biosorbents and precursors activated carbons. Activation was carried out impregnation with phosphoric acid followed pyrolysis under N2 flow. Furthermore, were treated a cationic surfactant carbons subject second propene objective improving hydrophobicity. Physico-chemical, textural, surface characterization materials employing, among others, adsorption isotherms, Fourier transform...
A reflective fiber optic sensor based on multimode interference for the measurement of refractive index variations in glucose aqueous solutions is proposed. The fabricated by splicing a short section coreless silica to standard single mode fiber. influence dimensions performance analyzed. By changing length, no significant impact observed. However, reduction sensing head diameter leads large improvement sensitivity. smaller sensor, with length 5 mm and 24 μm, presents maximum sensitivity...
The scope of this work is to evaluate the recyclability potential hardwood and softwood unbleached kraft pulps, leading a sound basis for comparison even support decision about fibers according performance achieved. influence successive recycling cycles (up 10 cycles) on fiber morphology, pulp suspension drainability, water retention capacity, handsheet mechanical properties were studied Eucalyptus globulus Pinus sylvestris pulps. these pulps as linerboard corrugating medium packaging was...
A supramolecular atropine sensor was developed, using cucurbit[6]uril as the recognition element. The solid-contact electrode is based on a polymeric membrane incorporating (CB[6]) an ionophore, 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether solvent mediator, and potassium tetrakis (4-chlorophenyl) borate additive. In MES-NaOH buffer at pH 6, performance of characterized by slope (58.7 ± 0.6) mV/dec with practical detection limit (6.30 1.62) × 10−7 mol/L lower linear range (1.52 0.64) 10−6 mol/L. Selectivity...
