Activation of Persulfate for Improved Naproxen Degradation Using FeCoO@g-CN Heterojunction Photocatalysts.

An effective heterojunction with robust charge separation and enormous degradation efficiency is the major task for photocatalyst preparation. In this study, we have prepared the FeCoO-loaded g-CN nanosheet by the sol-gel-assisted calcination method for photo-Fenton-like degradation under visible-light irradiation by activating persulfate. The nanocomposite exhibits a higher charge separation efficiency than pure g-CN and FeCoO for the degradation reaction against naproxen drugs.

BF VHDR based dynamic routing with hydrodynamics for QoS development in WSN.

The Hydrodynamic characteristics has been considered for routing in Wireless Sensor Networks by various researchers and presented several methods. The flow and friction based routing approaches would produces sustainable results but would not improve the QoS. To improve the performance of FVHDR (Flow -Flow-Friction-Velocity Based Hydro Dynamic Routing), this paper present BFVHDR (Back Flow -Flow-Friction-Velocity Based Hydro Dynamic Routing) algorithm.

Characterization of sorption sites and differential stress response of microalgae isolates against tannery effluents from ranipet industrial area-An application towards phycoremediation.

Phycoremediation ability of microalgae namely Oscillatoria acuminate and Phormidium irrigum were validated against the heavy metals from tannery effluent of Ranipet industrial area. The microalgae species were cultured in media containing tannery effluent in two different volumes and the parameters like specific growth rate, protein content and antioxidant enzyme activities were estimated. FTIR spectroscopy was carried out to know the sorption sites interaction.

Removal of heavy metals from tannery effluents of Ambur industrial area, Tamilnadu by Arthrospira (Spirulina) platensis.

The present study was carried out with the tannery effluent contaminated with heavy metals collected from Ambur industrial area to determine the phycoremediation potential of Arthrospira (Spirulina) platensis. Two different concentrations (50 and 100 %) of heavy metals containing tannery effluent treated with A. platensis were analysed for growth, absorption spectra, biochemical properties and antioxidant enzyme activity levels.

Preparation and characterization of aloe vera blended collagen-chitosan composite scaffold for tissue engineering applications.

Collagen-Chitosan (COL-CS) scaffolds supplemented with different concentrations (0.1-0.5%) of aloe vera (AV) were prepared and tested in vitro for their possible application in tissue engineering.
