At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

RoHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances, which is also known as the Directive 2002/95/EC. It includes the restrictions for the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. RoHS is a WEEE (Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment).
Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...Joshua Orris
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
2. What is Acid Rain???
Acid rain is basically rain that has a
higher than normal acid level (low pH).
“Clean” rain has a natural acidity of
about 5.2-5.7
Normal acid rain
CO2 (g) + H2O (l) H2CO3 (aq)
3. What causes acid
deposition?
Acid rain is caused by emissions of Sulfur
Dioxide and Nitrogen oxide, which react
with the water molecules in the atmosphere
to produce acids.
NO2 (g) + H2O (l) HNO3 (aq)
Or
2 SO2 (g) + O2 (g) 2 SO3 (g)
SO3 (g) + H2O (l) H2SO4 (aq)
4. The Main source of acid Rain ?The Main source of acid Rain ?
1)1) Sulphur dioxide
Burning coal, Oil and
natural gas, in power
stations makes electricity,
giving off sulphur dioxide
gas.
Natural from (volcanic
eruption )
5. 2) Nitrogen oxide
Burning petrol and oil in
vehicle engines gives off
nitrogen oxides as gases.
Natural from (lighting)
8. Problem
Acid rain can travel long distances.
Often it doesn’t fall where the gas is
produced. High chimneys disperse
(spread) the gases and winds blow
them great distances before they
dissolve and fall to Earth as rain.
Eg. gases produced in turkey can
result in acid rain in Kurdistan
9. Effects o f acid Rain ?
1) Human1) Human
The sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide
gases, causes respiratory diseases like
asthma, chronic bronchitis, etc.
10. 2) Plant2) Plant
Trees needles and leaves of the
trees turn brown and fall off.
Acid rain damages the surfaces of
leafs. This leaves the plant unable
to make food & more susceptible
to pests & diseases.
11. 3) Aquatic animals
Acid Rain increases the acidity of lakes &
rivers, which is directly effect the aquatic
ecosystem.
At pH lower than 5 most fish eggs will not
hatch and lower pH can kill adult fish.
12. 4) Buildings4) Buildings
Acid rain dissolves the stonework and
mortar of buildings (especially those
made out of sandstone or limestone).
It reacts with the minerals in the stone to
form a powdery substance that can be
washed away by rain.
13. Solution
