Pyromorphite formation from montmorillonite adsorbed lead The reaction of Pb-adsorbed montmorillonite with aqueous solutions of PO4 and Cl ions results in the decrease in phosphate concentration associated with the formation of a new phase - pyromorphite Pb5(PO4)3Cl. Pyromorphite crystals range in size from hundreds of nm to several tens of μm, depending on the PO4, K, and Ca concentrations in the reacting system. A strong ion-exchange effect of K+ and Ca2+ cations on desorption of Pb2+ from Pb-adsorbed montmorillonite was observed. Also, a high concentration of cations leads to a rapid desorption of Pb and the formation of fine pyromorphite crystals. In contrast, low PO4, K and Ca concentrations result in the formation of relatively large euhedral crystals. Final Pb concentrations are much lower in experimental sets than in control experiments with no phosphate present.

The transition metals V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, W, Re, Os, Ir and Pt were deposited from aqueous solutions of their salts onto conventional γ-Al2O3 and unconventional TiO2 and ZrO2 supports by vacuum impregnation and characterized in their sulfided form by a model reaction of benzothiophene hydrodesulfurization. It was found that the TiO2 and ZrO2 supports influenced predominantly positively the resulting activity of relatively low-active metals (V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Mo, Ru, W and Os), whereas the highly active metals (Rh, Pd, Ir, Pt and Re) were influenced slightly negatively or not at all by those supports compared with the γ-Al2O3-supported system. A significant effect of the supports on the hydrodesulfurization-activity ranking of the transition-metal sulfides studied was ascertained.

In this work, nanosized calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (nCDHA) was synthesized by the precipitation method, and then utilized as an adsorbent for removal of Fe (II), Cu (II), Ni (II) and Cr (VI) ions from aqueous solutions after characterizing it by various techniques as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and BET method. A possible structure of synthesized nCDHA was proposed. The adsorption study indicated that the adsorption equilibrium is well fitted with Langmuir isotherm model with the maximum adsorption capacities followed the order of Fe (II) > Cu (II) > Ni (II) > Cr (VI) with the values of 137.23, 128.02, 83.19 and 2.92 mg/g, respectively. The ion-exchange mechanism was dominant for the adsorption of metal ions onto nCDHA at initial metal concentrations lower than 0.01 mol/L. Along with the ion-exchange mechanism, there was an additional precipitation occurred on the surface of nCDHA in the case of Fe (II) and Cu (II) at initial concentrations higher than 0.01 mol/L.

A vision system was built using a behavior-based model, the subsumption architecture. The so-called active eye moves the camera’s axis through the environment, detecting areas with high concentration of edges, with the help of a kind of saccadic movement. The design and implementation process is detailed in the article, paying particular attention to the fovea-like sensor structure which enables the active eye to efficiently use local information to control its movements. Numerical measures for the eye’s behavior were developed, and applied to evaluate the incremental building process and the effects of the saccadic movements on the whole system. A higher level behavior was also implemented, with the purpose of detecting long straight edges in the image, producing pictures similar to hand drawings. Robustness and efficiency problems are addressed at the end of the paper. The results seem to prove that interesting behaviors can be achieved using simple vision methods and algorithms, if their results are properly interconnected and timed.

Abstract Under varied conditions, the IRC 718 ion-exchange resin is used to extract chromium (VI) ions from aqueous solutions. On chromium (VI) removal effectiveness, the effects of adsorption dosage, contact time, beginning metal concentration, and pH were examined. The batch ion exchange process reached equilibrium after around 90 minutes of interaction. With an initial chromium (VI) concentration of 0.5 mg/dm3, the pH-dependent ion-exchange mechanism revealed maximal removal in the pH 2.0–10 range . The adsorption mechanism occurs between Cr(VI) determined as the electron acceptor, and IRC 718 determined as the electron donor. The equilibrium ion-exchange potential and ion transfer quantities for Amberlite IRC 718 were calculated using the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. The overall ion exchange capacity of the resin was determined to be 187.72 mg of chromium (VI)/g of resin at an ideal pH of 6.0.
