Adsorptive Behavior of Methylene Blue onto Sawdust of Sour Lemon,Date Palm,and Eucalyptus as Agricultural Wastes

In the present study, to remove methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution, some agricultural residues and cheap bioadsorbents such as sawdust of palm trees, eucalyptus, and sour lemon were used. To do this, significant parameters like contact time, temperature, pH, initial concentration, and adsorbent dosage were checked. The results affirmed that the best conditions for MB adsorption from aqueous solution were obtained such as the temperature of 25?°C, pH of 8, adsorbent dosage of 2g/L, contact time of 120?minutes, and dye concentration of 5?mg/l which under these conditions the adsorption efficiencies determined were 95.8, 93.4, and 92.8% using sawdust of palm tree, eucalyptus, and sour lemon, respectively. Also, the equilibrium behavior of adsorbents showed that the Freundlich model could better predict the adsorption behavior of the process due to having a larger correlation coefficient (R²). The maximum biosorption capacities by Langmuir isotherm model were also obtained 54, 53.5, and 52.4?mg/g for sawdust of palm trees, eucalyptus, and lemon, respectively, which were significant amounts. In addition, kinetic behavior of adsorption showed that pseudo-second-order model can describe the kinetics of the adsorption process better than the pseudo-first-order model. Moreover, kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic behaviors of adsorption affirmed that the biosorption process was desirable, physisorption, spontaneous, and exothermic.

Effects of pH and Dye Concentration on the Optical and Structural Properties of Coumarin-4 Dye-Doped SiO2-PDMS Xerogels

Optical and structural properties of coumarin-4 dye-doped SiO₂-PDMS xerogels synthesized by acid catalyzed (one-step) and acid-base catalyzed (two-step) sol-gel routes with varying pH (0.6 to 7) and dye content ( 5 × 10^–4 to 5 × 10^–2 mole) are reported. Spectroscopic methods such as photo-luminescence, FT-IR and FT-Raman were used for characterizations. The acid catalyzed xerogels prepared with pH < 2.5 exhibited two fluorescence peaks, I at 390 nm and II at 480 nm. The acid-base catalyzed xerogels synthesized with pH < 2.5 also exhibited two peaks, I at 400 nm and II at 475 nm. Peak II was not observed for the samples with pH 2.5. This phenomenon was attributed to the existence of pH dependent different forms of coumarin-4 molecule. The concentration-quenching phenomenon was observed for the acid catalyzed xerogels prepared with different dye concentration. TheFT-IR spectra indicated the existence of hydrogen bonds between the carbonyl groups of dye molecules and the silanol groups of gel matrix. The hydrogen bonding was the highest for the samples with the extremity pH, 0.6 and 7, resulting in the highest dye/gel matrix interactions, hence, the highest fluorescence peaks. The Raman studies indicated that the samples prepared with pH < 2.5 possessed relatively more number of 3-membered siloxane rings than 4-membered siloxane rings. The ring statistics was reversed for the samples with pH > 2.5. The number of silanol groups was higher for the samples with pH > 2.5.

Evaluation of the sputtering rate variation in SIMS ultra‐shallow depth profiling using multiple short‐period delta layers

We have developed multiple short‐period delta layers as a reference material for SIMS ultra‐shallow depth profiling. Boron nitride delta layers and silicon spacer layers were sputter‐deposited alternately, with a silicon spacer thickness of 1–5 nm. These delta‐doped layers were used to measure the sputtering rate change in the initial stage of oxygen ion bombardment. A significant variation of sputtering rate was observed in the initial 3 nm or less. The sputtering rate in the initial 3 nm was estimated to be about four times larger than the steady‐state value for 1000 eV oxygen ions. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On the factors affecting the enhanced resonance light scattering signals of the interactions between proteins and multiply negatively charged chromophores using water blue as an example

Electrostatic interactions of proteins, including bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA), γ-globulin (γ-IgG), α-chymotrypsin (Chy), lysozyme (Lys) and cellulase (Cel), with multiply negatively charged chromophores were investigated based on the measurements of the enhanced resonance light scattering (RLS) signals. Using triply negatively charged water blue (WB) as an example, the factors were discussed that affect the enhanced resonance light scattering signals of the interactions between proteins and the negatively charged chromophores. It was found that the enhanced RLS signals with the maximum light scattering peak at 346.0 nm in these interacting systems are strongly dependent on the isoelectric points of proteins and show adverse linear relationships with increasing ionic strength depending on the positive charges of the inorganic metal ions used to control the ionic strength of the medium, sufficiently disclosing that the electrostatic attraction performs an important role in the combination of proteins with WB. Linear responses were discovered between the enhanced RLS signals and the protein molecular weights (M_w), displaying the dimensions of scattered particles formed by proteins and WB make a key contribution to the RLS enhancements. An empirical equation is proposed which possibly displays the factors affecting the enhanced RLS signals of the interactions between proteins with negatively charged chromophores.
