Activated wood charcoal (Carbonized) acts as an excellent adsorbent and it finds wide applications. The present study was carried on four different activated wood charcoals Salix (Sac), Pinus (Pac), Anacardium occidentale (AOac) and Calophyllum inophyllum (CIac) found in Karwar district, Karnataka, India. The activated charcoal was prepared by carbonizing in a muffle-furnace at 800 0 C and the yield of carbonized carbon was about 50%. SEM morphology and EDX spectrum indicates the homogeneity and purity of the activated wood charcoals containing 65-86% carbon to that of commercial charcoal (89% C) and hydrogen is absent. Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms are well-correlated and verified. The regressive coefficient (R2 ) of isotherms recorded a higher value above 0.92 which proves the homogeneous and even adsorption phenomenon by the activated wood charcoals. Sac and AOac recorded highest percentage of removal of acetic acid of about 40-60% and 20-26% with Cac (20-25%) where Pac and CIac recorded 17-23% which is relatively near to the commercially activated charcoal(Cac). On comparison of relative percentage of removal of acetic by activated wood charcoals with commercial charcoal, the activated wood charcoals serve as an efficient adsorbent for acetic acid. The cost and availability of the wood is cheaper.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to prepare carboxylated attapulgite (APT-COOH) and then be used as one of the ligands to prepare metal organic framework (MOF) hybrid materials to reduce the cost of MOF materials and improve the dispersed condition of APT. And then the materials were used to enrich anionic dye Congo red from aqueous solution. Design/methodology/approach The MOF hybrid materials were designed by means of facile reflux method rather than hydrothermal method, characterized by Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectrometer and pore structure. The dispersed degree of APT-COOH in the MOF materials was validated according to adsorption efficiency for Congo red. Findings Due to introduction of APT-COOH, the microenvironment of the MOF materials changed, leading to different adsorption behaviors. Compared to the MOF material without APT-COOH, the adsorption capacities of the hybridized MOF materials with different amounts of APT-COOH introduced increased by 4.58% and 15.55%, respectively, as the initial concentration of Congo red solution of 300 mg/L. Meantime, hybridized MOF materials were suitable to remove Congo red with low concentration, while the MOF material without APT-COOH was appropriate to enrich Congo red with high concentration. Research limitations/implications The microstructure of MOF hybrid materials in detail is the further and future investigation. Practical implications This study will provide a method to reduce the cost of MOF materials and a theoretical support to treat anionic dyes from aqueous solution. Originality/value APT-COOH was prepared and used as one of the ligands to synthesize MOF material to improve the dispersed degree of APT-COOH and reduce the cost of the MOF materials. The adsorption efficiency was greatly enhanced with low concentration of Congo red solution, and the results indicated that hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interaction, and p-p conjugation were involved in the adsorption process. The prepared MOFs materials exhibited excellent adsorption efficiency, which made the present materials highly promising and potentially useful in practical application as adsorbents to enrich anionic dyes such as Congo red from aqueous solution.

The growth of eceng gondok (Water hyacinth) in Rawa Pening Lake showed rapid increase.. Based on the mandate of the National Lake conference in Bali and the 16th World Lake Conference, Rawa Pening is one of the fifteen national lakes which need to be treated for its conservation. Reducing number of eceng gondok plants is one of the alternatif. However, further processing is required to treat the waste of eceng gondok. One attempt is to convert eceng gondok (water hyacinth) into liquid smoke product. This article reviewes the potency of eceng gondok for liquid smoke through pyrolisis method. The liquid smoke can be used for various applications such as preservatives, antioxidants, biopesticides and perisa disinfectants. Pyrolysis is a combustion process in the absence of oxygen to produce liquid and charcoal activated charcoal products called activated charcoal. The pyrolysis process is generally carried out at a temperature range between 200-700 °C. The pyrolysis process is one of the methods chosen in order to strive for development that suppresses the formation of CO gas but releases water vapor. Pyrolysis at a temperature of 300-700 ° C, produces the most dominant compounds 1.6 Anhyro-beta-d-glucopyranose, phenol, and acetic acid. The reaction that occurs during pyrolysis of this temperature is the release of water vapor instead of carbon gas so that it is safe for the environment. The discussion on this article focused on the production of liquid smoke from eceng gondok biomass.

SUMMARY 1. A number of melanophore-expanding (B) extracts of the pituitary have been subjected to electrophoresis on filter-paper, and the resulting pattern of activity assayed, using Xenopus. At pH 7·2, in phosphate buffer, a simple extract of ox posterior lobe powder (OxPLP) shows the greatest range of mobilities. The faster moving components are absent from an acetone precipitated powder (APP), and also from OxPLP after treatment by heating in alkali. An ACTH preparation (Acton) had relatively more faster moving components with B activity than APP or alkali and heat-treated OxPLP. 2. There was no difference in the electrophoretic pattern of APP and alkali and heat-treated APP when examined in barbiturate buffer at pH 8·5. Under these conditions Acton showed a fast moving major peak of activity coincident with the ovalbumin spot. Acton also gave a faster moving component when run at pH 8·8 in barbiturate buffer than an alkali and heattreated OxPLP extract purified by adsorption to and elution from activated charcoal. 3. In acetate buffer all the extracts examined had an isoelectric point close to pH 4·8. 4. It is suggested that the melanophore-expanding activity of single acetic acid extracts of OxPLP is complex. Heating at a high pH for a few min destroys the components in this complex which show highest mobility at a slightly alkaline pH. The melanophore-expanding activity in Acton is probably largely identical with these heat unstable components.

SUMMARY A radioimmunoassay method for plasma corticotrophin (ACTH) is described. ACTH is extracted from plasma by adsorption to silicic acid powder and subsequent elution by an acetone—acetic acid mixture. ACTH antiserum and 131I-labelled ACTH are added and the antigen-antibody reaction proceeds for 3 days. Activated charcoal coated with plasma is used to separate antibody-bound and unbound ACTH. Factors affecting the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the assay have been assessed.

Natural product herbicides for vegetation control are being considered as alternatives to synthetic herbicides by many public agencies. Studies were conducted along roadsides at the Hopland Research and Extension Center (HREC) in 2001 and 2002 and on California State Route 29 (SR29) in 2002 to evaluate acetic acid, pine oil, and plant essentials compared with glyphosate for control of herbaceous vegetation. In 2001, annual grass control after a single application of pine oil at HREC was 40% or less effective, whereas acetic acid was at least 79% effective. A second application of pine oil or acetic acid did not control regrowth or new plants. In 2002, plant essentials was the most effective (>80%) natural product at HREC for control of annual grasses, except slender oat. Pine oil often provided similar control of slender oat as plant essentials (71 and 69%, respectively). At SR29, five applications of acetic acid provided 83% or better control of slender oat, hare barley, medusahead, and broadleaf filaree. Plant essentials and pine oil controlled hairy vetch, broadleaf filaree, and hare barley at least 83%, but yellow starthistle, soft chess, buckhorn plantain, and medusahead control never exceeded 85%. Glyphosate controlled all vegetation in these experiments with one or two applications. The cost of one or more applications of the natural products was greater than 10 times the cost of using one or two applications of glyphosate. Natural products were neither efficaciously nor economically comparable with glyphosate for control of annual roadside vegetation.

Orchids of the Vanda helvola genus are extensively grown as ornamental plants. The method of propagation of plant seeds in tissue culture is an alternative that may be employed in the provision of a short period. Murashige and Skoog (MS) media and activated charcoal can optimize orchid cultivation utilizing tissue culture techniques. One of the keys to success in tissue culture is the application of natural types of growing regulatory substances (ZPT) at the proper concentration, which can lower the cost of orchid tissue culture.The objective of this study was to see how a combination of Murashige and Skoog (MS) media and activated charcoal influenced the Vanda helvola orchid subculture in vitro. The researchers employed a Complete Randomized Design (RAL) with four treatments and three repeats: negative control (K), ¼ MS (K1), ½ MS (K2), and 100% MS (K3) (K3). The observed parameters include the percentage of live explant, number of roots, and height of orchid plants.   The results showed that the explant had a 100% life percentage of over 21 HST and had no noticeable influence on the number of roots and the plant's height.
