Naphtha reforming units are of great interest for hydrogen and reformate production in petroleum refineries. Conventionally employed packed bed reactors for naphtha reforming have drawbacks such as a high pressure drop, ...

Plastic poses great hazard to our environment because of its non biodegradability as well as limited disposal methods. Ecofriendly biodegradable packaging is an excellent alternative to this. Biodegrable films based on ...

Group II-VI semiconductors have countless significance in application of solar cells owing to their admirable opto-electrical properties. Current research is primarily focused on the optimization of cadmium sulfide (CdS) ...

In this study, adsorption of hexavalent chromium has been examined on ZF 8 and its various composites. ZIF8 is modified by using amine groups, GO and Mg(OH)2/GO. Trend of pure ZIF8, Mg(OH)2/GO, ZIF8/NH2, ZIF8/Mg(OH)2/GO, ...

In this work, an efficient adsorbent for the removal of chromium (IV) was prepared. The examined heavy metal adsorbents are Fe3O4 and MnO2 nanoparticles, nanoclay, Fe3O4/Clay and MnO2/Fe3O4/Clay nanocomposites. The ...

Much of the efforts have been made over the period to select an appropriate material for bone implants. Metals such as stainless-steel and Co-Cr alloys with good toughness were used initially. But, these materials have ...

Magnesium aluminate MgAl2O4 is one of the eminent members of spinel group that has registered itself as a material exhibiting a broad range of application based diverse characteristics. Nanoparticles of this spinel class ...

Urea production requires the reaction of ammonia and carbon dioxide. The production of ammonia, itself, is a complex process that requires several steps. Ammonia is produced by introducing a synthesis gas, which is ...

Urea consisting 46% Nitrogen (N) by weight is the most common and principal nitrogen rich fertilizer used in today’s world. Almost half of world population use it to increase the productivity of crop. However with low ...

Iodine is a hazardous substance that can be released from the nuclear reactors during severe accident like in Fukushima Daichi, Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. In order to reduce the risk associated with accidental release ...
