Synthetic dyes can be hazardous to the ecosystem, even at low concentrations in the effluent. In this research, the Heracleum persicum stems-Fe3O4 (MHPS) adsorbent performance for the removal of crystal violet (CV) and methylene blue (MB) from binary aqueous solutions was investigated in a batch method under the influence of different parameters. In addition, predictive models for the adsorption process were developed using machine learning techniques such as artificial neural networks and random forests.

In this work, the Gypsophila aretioides (GYP-A) stem is used as a biosorbent to remove crystal violet (CV) by the static and dynamic systems from aqueous solutions; the biosorbent is interesting in green chemistry and, on the other hand, cheaper than activated carbon and does not have the limitation of industrialization. The effects of different operating parameters such as pH(3-9), biosorbent dosage(0.4-1.

Indeed, the present approach was used to improve the suitability and appropriateness of the dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) method in complicated matrices. Firstly, 10 mL of the sample solution containing the two understudied drugs was extracted into an organic solvent (200 μL of 1,2-dichloromethane) using the DLLME method.

In the present work, four simple and economic spectrophotometric methods, namely constant center (CC), ratio difference (RD), H-point standard addition method (HPSAM), and ratio H-point standard addition method (RHPSAM) were employed for the simultaneous determination of meta and para-nitroaniline with severely overlapping spectra without unitizing the preliminary physical separation techniques. In each method, the parameters affecting the resolution of the spectra were optimized to determine the cited isomers in a binary mixture with a high accuracy. Under the optimized conditions, the results obtained showed that from cited methods used, the CC and RD methods have the least errors in determination of the concentration of highly spectral overlapping species.

These include hexachlorobenzene, heptachlor and aldrine in aqueous samples. For the first time, the natural nano diatomite is used a sorbent.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA simple and sensitive double injection/single detector flow injection analysis (FIA) method is proposed for the simultaneous kinetic determination of ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA). This method is based upon the difference between the rates of the AA and UA reactions with Fe in the presence of 1, 10-phenanthroline (phen). The absorbance of Fe/1, 10-phenanthroline (Fe-phen) complex obtained as the product was measured spectrophotometrically at 510nm.

The effects of different experimental variables on the removal efficiency of the cited dyes were examined. Then these variables were used as the inputs to generate linear and non-linear models such as the multiple linear regression, random forest, and artificial neural network to predict the removal efficiency of these dye species at different experimental conditions.

A rapid, simple, accurate, and highly selective spectrophotometric method is proposed for the determination of periodate in water samples. This method is based on the reaction of methylene green with periodate in the presence of iodide. The decrease in the absorbance of methylene green is used to monitor the reaction spectrophotometrically at 613 nm.
