This work introduces two datasets: FTIR-Plastics-C4 (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, in plastics, at a wavenumber spectral resolution of 4 cm⁻¹) and FTIR-Plastics-C8 8 cm⁻¹), each comprising 3,000 spectra corresponding to the most used synthetic polymers worldwide. The main contribution this lies selection FTIR characterization six commonly everyday life industry, namely Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), High-Density (HDPE), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Low-Density (LDPE),...
In this study, the capacity of aquatic liverwort Ricciocarpus natans L. and terrestrial moss Entodon serrulatus Mitt. as biomonitors heavy metals associated with particulate matter from a highly polluted urban area was evaluated, concentrations in tissues were correlated PM10 PM2.5 present atmosphere. The two species exposed by bag technique to pollution Toluca Valley Metropolitan Area (TVMA) for periods 6 months, using sites Automatic Atmospheric Monitoring Network Government State Mexico,...
This study examines the potential of machine learning (ML) and deep (DL) techniques for classifying microplastics using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Six commonly used industrial plastics (PET, HDPE, PVC, LDPE, PP, PS) were analyzed. A significant contribution this research is use broader more varied spectral ranges than those typically reported in state art. Furthermore, impact different normalization (Min-Max, Max-Abs, Sum Squares, Z-Score) on classification accuracy was...
Abstract The synthesis of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites through microwave methods has been investigated. To enhance the compatibility between PET polymer and LDH, dodecyl sulfate was intercalated in lamellar structure. organo‐LDH structure confirmed by powder X‐ray diffraction (PXRD) Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). were prepared with 0–10 wt % LDH content situ microwave‐assisted polymerization. PXRD used to detect formation...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiency removal suspended solids in terms turbidity, color, and chemical oxygen demand (COD) when integrating electrocoagulation process using aluminum sacrificial anodes sand filtration as a pretreatment wastewater from chocolate manufacturing plant Toluca, México. Wastewater industry used is classified nontoxic, but characterized having high content color (5952 ± 76 Pt-Co), turbidity (1648 49 FAU), COD (3608 250 mg/L). Therefore, enhanced...
Nanomaterials are widely used in health and biomedical applications, however, only a few studies investigate their toxic effects. The present report signifies contribution to the study of effects silver nanoparticles on E. coli cells, which is model organism anthropogenic pollution. toxicity depends on chemical surface properties, shape size. Nanoparticles that have same composition but different shapes or sizes might cells. In this work, Ag nanoparticles were biosynthesized with an...
This paper presents the preparation of carbon conditioned with iron nanoparticles (CI) using a pineapple peel treated salts, carboxymethylcellulose sodium and hexamine. First, was analyzed by thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) to determine optimal temperature for pyrolysis. The formation studied as function time at 30 min, 60 90 120 150 min 180 min. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) used identify changes in morphology materials. specific area each material obtained BET method. elemental...
Atrazine (ATZ) is an herbicide which applied to the soil, and its mechanism of action involves inhibition photosynthesis. One main functions control appearance weeds in crops, primarily corn, sorghum, sugar cane, wheat; however, it very toxic for numerous species, including humans. Therefore, this work deals with adsorption ATZ from aqueous solutions using nanocomposite materials, synthesized two different types organo-modified clays. Those were obtained by free radical polymerization...
Layered double hydroxides (LDH) M 2+ 3+ CO 3 2− were synthesized following the sol-gel methodology using Mg-Al, Mg-Fe, and Zn-Al as cation pairs for subsequent use in preparation of TiO 2 /LDH materials. The samples characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) technique to determine surface area (SA); results which used roughness terms fractal dimension (<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
In central Mexico (state of Puebla), hydrocarbon spillages associated to fuel theft are common. The soil that surrounds these is left useless due contamination. Given the increasing number and extension polluted land they represent, a recovery plan for soils does not exist. This work proposes application advanced oxidation, activated carbon sorption, combination both, as remediation proposal. Starting with total petroleum (TPH) concentration 55,141 mg/Kg, oxidation degraded maximum 84%,...
Abstract Laboratory scale tests were developed to study the high consumption of water in a tannery Toluca City, Mexico, needed decrease biological oxygen demand (BOD) wastewater. Biological is generally reduced by reducing organic material with sodium hypochlorite. However, Cr(VI) formed this last process. Hydrotalcite (HT) and its calcination product applied separate formed. The best found was calcined hydrotalcite, which removed not only from wastewater but also other anions, such as Cl−,...
