A new full-field XRF imaging station at Synchrotron Light Research Institute.

A full-field X-ray fluorescence imaging (FXI) station was recently developed at beamline BL8 of Synchrotron Light Research Institute (SLRI), Thailand. An unfocused, synchrotron X-ray beam from the bending magnet with a size of 2 mm (vertical) × 13 mm (horizontal) and photon energy of 10 keV was employed in the FXI experiments. A sample stage was tilted by 7.

Adsorptive, kinetics and regeneration studies of fluoride removal from water using zirconium-based metal organic frameworks.

Fluoride contamination has been recognised as one of the major problems worldwide, imposing a serious threat to human health and affecting the safety of drinking water. Adsorption is one of the widely considered appropriate technologies for water defluorination. The present study describes the preparation of a zirconium-based metal organic framework (MOF-801) adsorbent using a solvothermal method and its adsorption efficiency for removal of fluoride ions from water.
