Insecticidal formulation based on essential oil from Linn. Herb supported onto modified kaolinite for stored maize protection.

In this study, essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation from the leaves of Ocimum basilicum and it was analyzed by GC-MS. Eucalyptol (11.19 %), -iso eugenol (13.

Highly efficient CdS/CeO/AgPO nanocomposite as novel heterogenous catalyst for Knoevenagel condensation and acetylation reactions.

In light of environmental and economic concerns, the use of heterogeneous catalysts that can function under gentler reaction conditions has recently become popular. In this study by using the precipitation method, CdS/CeO/AgPO ternary nanocomposites with varied molar proportions of CdS:CeO/AgPO were produced. The catalysts' surface functional groups; morphology and crystal structures were examined using FTIR, SEM-EDX and XRD respectively.

Fe-Al binary composite filled dialysis membrane tubes (DMT-HFAO): a modified method for assessment of phosphate desorption from aqueous and soil solutions.

Phosphorus (P) limits plant growth particularly in strongly acidic soils due to P fixation. P availability to a plant is a functional concept of time rather than a measurable quantity. Therefore, a method that can estimate P availability over time is required.

Preparation and Adsorption Behavior of Ce(III)-MOF for Phosphate and Fluoride Ion Removal from Aqueous Solutions.

The discharge of inorganic pollutants like phosphate and fluoride is a cause of mounting concern to the world due to the substantial environmental and human health risk. Adsorption is one of the most common and affordable technologies widely utilized for removing inorganic pollutants such as phosphate and fluoride anions. Investigating efficient sorbents for the adsorption of these pollutants is extremely important and challenging.

Non-noble MNP@MOF materials: synthesis and applications in heterogeneous catalysis.

Transition metals have a long history in heterogeneous catalysis. Noble or precious transition metals have been widely used in this field. The advantage of noble and precious metals is obvious in 'heterogeneous catalysis'.
