Adsorption techniques for industrial wastewater treatment rich in heavy metals and aqueous solutions of water-soluble such as Cl−, F−, HCO3−, NO3−, SO2−4, and PO3−, often include technologies for toxicity removals. The recent advancement and technical applicability in the treatment of chlorine and chlorinated compounds from industrial wastewater are reviewed in this article. Chlorine and chlorinated compounds are among the common discharged constituents from numerous industries. They can be carcinogenic or naturally toxic and can pose issues to aquatic ecosystems and human beings. Thus, elimination of chlorides and chlorinated compounds from water or wastewater is inevitable to get rid of the problem. Several techniques are being applied for the reduction of chlorine and chlorinated compounds in water. These include biodegradation, photochemical, adsorption, chemical, electrochemical, photo-electrochemical, membrane, supercritical extraction and catalytic method. Chlorine can react with various organic and inorganic micro-pollutants. However, the potential reactivity of chlorine for specific compounds is small, and only minor variations in the structure of the parent compound are anticipated in the water treatment process under typical conditions. This paper reviews different techniques and aspects related to chlorine removal, the types of chlorine species in solution and their catalyst, chlorine fate and transport into the environment, electrochemical techniques for de-chlorination of water, kinetics, mechanisms of reduction of chlorinated compounds, and kinetics of the electrochemical reaction of chlorine compounds. Keywords: Industrial waste, Kinetics, Wastewater, Water purification

Five 2,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidinecarboxanilides were effective inhibitors of the Hill reaction. However, only thecisisomers were active; thetransisomers were totally inactive. Experiments were conducted using14C-5328 (cis-2,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidinecarboxanilide). A correlation existed between resistance of various plants to 5328 and their ability to metabolize it to water soluble metabolites. Velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrastiMedic.) and proso millet (Panicum miliaceumL.) seedlings were very susceptible to 5328 and were unable to metabolize it. Tall morningglory [Ipomoea purpurea(L.) Roth] seedlings were highly tolerant to 5328 and converted it completely to its metabolites. Corn (Zea maysL. ‘DeKalb variety XL-45′) seedlings which were slightly susceptible to 5328 injury were able to metabolize up to 90% of the parent compound. Corn foliage uptake of14C-5328 applied to the soil surface occurred through the adventitious roots.

Abstract. Aerosol composition and mixing state near anthropogenic sources can be highly variable and can challenge predictions of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). The impacts of chemical composition on CCN activation kinetics is also an important, but largely unknown, aspect of cloud droplet formation. Towards this, we present in-situ size-resolved CCN measurements carried out during the 2008 summertime August Mini Intensive Gas and Aerosol Study (AMIGAS) campaign in Atlanta, GA. Aerosol chemical composition was measured by two particle-into-liquid samplers measuring water-soluble inorganic ions and total water-soluble organic carbon. Size-resolved CCN data were collected using the Scanning Mobility CCN Analysis (SMCA) method and were used to obtain characteristic aerosol hygroscopicity distributions, whose breadth reflects the aerosol compositional variability and mixing state. Knowledge of aerosol mixing state is important for accurate predictions of CCN concentrations and that the influence of an externally-mixed, CCN-active aerosol fraction varies with size from 31% for particle diameters less than 40 nm to 93% for accumulation mode aerosol during the day. Assuming size-dependent aerosol mixing state and size-invariant chemical composition decreases the average CCN concentration overprediction (for all but one mixing state and chemical composition scenario considered) from over 190–240% to less than 20%. CCN activity is parameterized using a single hygroscopicity parameter, κ, which averages to 0.16 ± 0.07 for 80 nm particles and exhibits considerable variability (from 0.03 to 0.48) throughout the study period. Particles in the 60–100 nm range exhibited similar hygroscopicity, with a κ range for 60 nm between 0.06–0.076 (mean of 0.18 ± 0.09). Smaller particles (40 nm) had on average greater κ, with a range of 0.20–0.92 (mean of 0.3 ± 0.12). Analysis of the droplet activation kinetics of the aerosol sampled suggests that most of the CCN activate as rapidly as calibration aerosol, suggesting that aerosol composition exhibits a minor (if any) impact on CCN activation kinetics.

Leucine metabolism in vivo can be determined from a primed, continuous infusion of L-[1-13C]leucine by measuring, at isotopic steady state, plasm [-13C]leucine enrichment, expired 13CO2 enrichment, and CO2 production rate. With an appropriate priming dose of L-[1-13C]leucine and NaH13CO3, isotopic steady state is reached in less than 2 h, and the infusion is completed in 4 h. The method can determine rates of leucine turnover, oxidation, and incorporation into protein with typical relative uncertainties of 2, 10, and 4%, respectively. The method requires no more than 1 ml of blood and uses stable isotope rather than radioisotope techniques. Thus, the method is applicable to studies of human beings of all ages. L-[1-13C]leucine may be infused with a second amino acid labeled with 15N for simultaneous determination of the kinetics of two amino acids.

In the research work, the adsorption equilibrium, kinetics, thermodynamics and dynamic separation of magnesium and calcium ions from industrial wastewater by new strong acid cation resin of SPVC (sulphonated polyvinylchloride) were investigated. The sorption capacity of the studied resin was 3.78 mmol/g and 3.74 mmol/g for magnesium and calcium ions, respectively, according to Langmuir isotherm. It was found that the pseudo−first−order model was better fitted for the adsorption kinetics of magnesium and calcium ions on the resin. The dynamic separation results confirmed that the selected resin effectively separated magnesium and calcium ions from industrial wastewater in the dynamic condition. The change of the standard Gibbs free energy (G) and enthalpy (H), and entropy (S) were calculated. The obtained results confirmed that the adsorption of magnesium and calcium ions on the selected resin is endothermic.

The buccal cavity is an alternate route for the administration of the drug. This route gained acceptance as increase in bioavailability is observed due to bypass of first pass metabolism. Solvent casting method was employed for the preparation of the risperidone mucoadhesive patches using different combinations of water soluble and water insoluble polymers using polyvinyl alcohol as a backing layer. Our main objective of this study was to understand the behaviour of water soluble and water insoluble polymers in combination on release pattern. Six different formulations of mucoadhesive patches were evaluated for physicochemical parameters like weight uniformity, content uniformity, thickness uniformity, surface pH, swelling studies, tensile strength, folding endurance, in-vitro drug release, and in-vivo drug absorption. Drug loaded mucoadhesive patches of various polymer bases had shown 35.64 to 72.33% drug release in 30 min in phosphate buffer solution of pH 6.6. In-vitro release data from patches were fit to different equations and kinetic models to explain release profiles. Kinetic models like Hixon-Crowell and Higuchi models were used. The formulation containing HPMC (15Cps) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone was considered as optimized based on the physicochemical and pharmaceutical properties. In-vivo studies in rabbits, carried out with prior permission from IAEC, showed 80.40% of drug release from the optimized patches. In-vivo and in-vitro correlations were found to be good. The drug absorption was found significant from the optimized formulation in healthy rabbits. The structure of the buccal membrane and permeability factors are similar in both human beings and rabbits. Therefore mucoadhesive patches of risperidone may be accepted with the important advantage of reduced risperidone dose.

A water soluble binder system is used to prepare Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi pre-alloyed powder feedstock. The binder dissolution and transport kinetics through the porous powder skeleton are studied for various powder morphologies and powder loadings from 60 to 69.5 vol.%. The binder removal behaviours are evaluated with different debinding time intervals. The focus of this work is to investigate the influences of shaping pressure, specimen thickness and water bath temperature on the binder extraction behaviour.
