The Batch Stirred Tank Reactor (BSTR) has been commonly used for decades in the chemical process industries and even on a pilot plant or laboratory scale whenever expensive and delicate raw materials and products such as pharmaceuticals or fragile transition metal complexes are involved. This research article describes the details of isothermal BSTR and subsequent experimental validation of the rate law discovered in the previous paper of this series on the electron transfer reaction between Co(II) and chlorate ions in acetic acid solution. A Series of tests were performed to evaluate the effi..read more

A one-step activation technique for preparing activated carbon/titanium dioxide (AC-TiO2) photocatalyst was developed in this study, which achieved the expansion of activated carbon and the crystallization transition of titanium dioxide in one step. The properties of the generated materials were examined utilizing photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TC). The optimized sample (10%AC-TiO2) has a photocatalytic efficiency of 99.8% in 60 minutes and a degradation efficiency of more than 90% after 5 cycles. According to the experiment results, the combination of AC with TiO2 a..read more

: Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are used in sterilizing nanomaterials, medical products, textiles, food storage bags, and personal care products. Ag NPs exhibited significant antibacterial activity due to the sustained release of free Ag. Flavokawain B (FKB) is a natural chalcone extracted from the roots of the kava-kava plant Piper methysticum. In this study, Ag NPs were synthesized by the chemical method using hydrazine hydrate and poly (vinyl alcohol) as reducing and stabilizing agents, respectively. FKB-loaded Ag NPs showed a red shift and were positioned at 421 nm, indicating Ag NPs prese..read more

A fast, simple, environmental friendly and strong sample clean-up ability method for the determination of three estrogens (17β-estradiol (17β-E2), estrone (E1), and diethylstilbestrol (DES)) in milk samples has been developed by using supramolecular solvent-based vortex-assisted hollow fibre liquid-phase microextraction (SS-VA-HF-LPME) and high performance liquid chromatography. Method is based on estrogens was extracted from aqueous samples into a supramolecular solvent which were made up of n-octanol and ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIM] BF4) impregnated in t..read more

: A series of Schiff base chemosensors (M1, M2 and M3) were designed and synthesized based on conjugated fuse heterocyclic aldehyde thiosemicarbazone. Optical properties of fluorescent probes M1, M2, and M3 toward various nitro explosives 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT), o-nitrophenol (ONP), p-nitrophenol (PNP), phenol (PhOH) and nitromethane (NM) were investigated, M1, M2, and M3 could selectively recognize PA with an obvious color change and fluorescence quenching, even in the presence of other coexistence nitro explosives. The detection limit of M1, M2, and M3 were 1.18×10-7 M, 1.13×10-7 M, 1.09×1..read more

A new, quick and concise nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis approach has been matured to separate phytohormones involving indobutyric acid, indoleacetic acid, abscisic acid, 1-naphthaleneacetic acid and gibberellin. Using a running buffer composed of 85% methyl cyanide, 0.8% 1.0 M caustic soda and 20.0 mM methanol ammonium acetate, satisfactory separation of five phytohormone standards was achieved within 4 mins. The lowest detection limit was obtained for 1-naphthaleneacetic-acid (0.06 µg/ml) and the highest for gibberellin (1.71 µg/ml). The approach has been utilized for wheat bud samples ..read more
