Effects of zeolites X and Y on the degradation of malathion in water
(Science Publishing Group, 2013-04)
The inclusion of both zeolites X and zeolite Y significantly affected the dissipation of malathion in water. In the fresh water, malathion degradation followed a pseudo-first order kinetics with concomitant half-life ...
Effects of Different Types of Zeolites on the Degradation Kinetics of Malathion Pesticide in Water
(2021-06)
The study examined the effects of selected types of zeolites as an environmentally benign and friendly way to degrade, S-1, 2-bis (ethoxycarbonyl) ethyl O, O-dimethylphosphorodithioate (malathion), used as a model pesticide, ...
Effects of Zeolite X on Dissipation of Hexazinone from Agricultural Waste Waters in Western Kenya
(2013-10)
Dissipation of hexazinone in Zeolite X treated wastewater followed pseudo first-order kinetics giving a calculated half-life of 41 days compared to a half-life of 144 days in untreated wastewater. The herbicide degraded ...
Effects of Faujasite X and Y Zeolites on the 1,1,1-Trichloro-2,2? bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane (DDT) Degradation during Water Purification
(Science Publishing Group, 2013-06)
The ability of zeolites to abstract and denature organochloride pesticides finds application in water purification practices. In this study, activated faujasite X and Y zeolites were separately exposed to 1, 2 and 4 ppm ...
Production And Characterization Of Bioethanol From Cassava Peels
(IOSR Journal of Applied Chemistry, 2024-05)
Majority of rural Africans use inefficient energy sources like wood and fossil fuels, which are not environmentally friendly and hazardous to human health. Bioethanol is an alternative clean source of energy that can be ...
