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 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 ...
