In this work, for eliminating the (RR1346), considered to be a waste in wastewater from dye industries electrochemical advanced oxidation process has been used. Graphene oxide coated carbon cloth (GO/CC) and Fe3O4 /GO coated carbon cloth (Fe3O4/GO/CC) electrodes has been fabricated by synthesized GO and Fe3O4 nanoparticles. Characteristic properties such as surface morphology as the main reason of utilizing Fe2O3/GO/CC as electrodes has been investigated determined by various instrumental analysis including, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Cyclic Voltammetry (CV), Cathodic polarization, and also for investigating the process yield by utilization of mentioned electrodes, UV-vis spectrophotometric analysis has been used to determine dye concentration in sample waste water, after comparing fabricated electrodes removal efficiency in same time intervals, by determining the concentration of RR1346 dye in samples after oxidation process in different time intervals, results indicated better removal efficiency Fe3O4/GO/CC fabricated electrode than the other two electrodes, which this conclusion was proved by AFM,FESEM and UV-vis results.

In this work, zeolite 13X with porosity structure has been used as an adsorbent for adsorption of CO2 flue gas. The effect of operating conditions including pressure and time on adsorption capacity were investigated. The experiments conditions are constant temperature, the range of pressure 1 - 9 bar and the registration of adsorption capacity with passing of time. Experimental data were adjusted with adsorption isotherm models including two and three parameters isotherm. Also the process was studied in terms of kinetic models and after the implementation of the experimental data with kinetic models, the speed of this process equations were obtained. The best kinetic model for this process was selected first order equation. The results showed that adsorption capacity of 13X is 71.5 mg/g at pressure of 8 bars. Also the result indicate that 13x has high capacity at low pressures. With regard to achieved results for adsorption isotherm modeling, the adsorption isotherm followed of the three-parameter and among three-parameter models, Toth isotherm can be interpreted the process. Also the results of the fixed bed indicate a very high adsorbent selectivity to carbon dioxide adsorption and there was little oxygen and nitrogen adsorption.

This paper reports the evaluation of adsorbing Cr (VI) ions on sorbent prepared from chitosan (CHT), a versatile derivative of chitin, and dodecyl amine modified locally available kaolinite clay (Bijoypur clay) (MC) that has excellent mechanical properties and great resistance to chemical and biological attack. The effect of the initial metal ion concentration, solution pH, contact time, and adsorbent dosages on the adsorption capacity of the composites was investigated. pH 4 is selected for better adsorption by the adsorbents. The adsorption abilities were studied over Cr (VI) ions using different adsorption isotherm such as Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich respectively. Langmuir isotherm is found better fitted with maximum adsorption capacity of 73 mg/g by composite SB-1. R2 obtained from Langmuir isotherm is 0.999 which indicates a monolayer adsorption on the adsorbent surface. The adsorption kinetics was also well described by the pseudo-second-order equation with a rate constant of 0.000302 g mg−1 min−1 at 25 ppm Cr(VI) concentration. The adsorption of Cr (VI) ions by the adsorbent were confirmed by FT-IR and X-RD analysis of the composites before and after Cr (VI) ion adsorption. The desorption percentage of the metal ion and the second cycle metal adsorption by regenerated (regenerated after the first adsorption by fresh adsorbent) adsorbent processed with 0.01N sulphuric acid shows a value of 78.23% and 68.12% respectively.

In this paper, catalytic oxidation of CO over the LaFe1-xCuxO3 (x= 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6) perovskite-type oxides was investigated. The catalysts were synthesized by sol-gel method and characterized by XRD, BET, FT-IR, H2-TPR and SEM methods. The catalytic activity of catalysts was tested in catalytic oxidation of CO. XRD patterns confirmed the synthesized perovskites to be single-phase perovskite-type oxides. The synthesized perovskite catalysts show high activity in the range of reaction temperature (50 - 300 ºC). The substitution of Cu in B-site of the perovskite catalysts enhanced their catalytic activity for CO oxidation. Among different synthesized perovskite catalysts, LaFe0.6Cu0.4O3 has the highest activity: nearly complete elimination of CO was achieved at 275 ºC with this catalyst. Kinetic studies for CO oxidation were performed based on power law and Mars-van Krevelen mechanisms. According to kinetic calculations, the most probable mechanism is the MKV-D (dissociative adsorption of oxygen) which can predict the experimental data with correlation coefficient of R2 > 0.995.
