Fe, Cr, Cu, Ni and Mn Concentration Determination from Matatilla Water System by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy
Abstract: This study was conducted to assess the extent of heavy metal in the Matatilla Dam water systems. Water quality is effect by the many substance water contacts during its movement through the hydrological system. Water dissolves a wide variety of minerals, nutrients and other substance from soils, rocks and atmosphere carries them in water system. Lake streams and ground water accumulate these dissolve substance and reflect distinctive characteristic of this …

Activated Carbon from Rice Husk for Treating Dye Waste Water
Abstract: This study was undertaken to explore the possibility of utilizing rice husk (RH) for the production of activated carbon because of its abundant, renewable, and biodegradable raw resource, and properties such as its chemical stability, oil absorption, surface area, iodine value, and high reactivity, resulting from the presence of chemically reactive hydroxyl groups. RH is roasted at high % with low cost chemical as catalyst to reduce time, with temperature …

Microalgae in Bioremediation of Waste water and Production of Bioproducts
Abstract: Domestic wastewater treatment and remediation is an exclusive practice due to substantial time and scheduling needed for fruitful management. Recent waste water treatment plants are extremely mechanical and costly to build and sustain. Maximum of the domestic waste water is considered feeble or average in strength with nitrogen levels between 20–40 mg/L and phosphorus levels between 4–8 mg/L[3]. These concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus are unwanted as they can lead …

Research Insight: Microwave Synthesis – An Implement for Green Chemistry
Abstract: Microwave science is the exploration of applying microwave radiation to synthetic responses. Microwaves go about as high recurrence electric fields and will for the most part warmth any material containing versatile electric charges, for example, polar particles in solvent or conducting ions in a solid. Polar solvents are warmed as their segment particles are compelled to turn with the field and lose vitality in impacts. Semiconducting and leading specimens heat …
