Comparative Study of Percentage Removal of Iron from Water Media Polluted with PMS and AGO using Different Particle Size and Mix Ratios of Adsorbent
Abstract: The need to monitor the degree of comparative study of percentage removal of iron from water media contaminated with petrol motor spirit (PMS) and diesel (AGO) by the application of molded adsorbent in solid form. The adsorbent is made of clay soil with mixed of either of the agro-based materials listed, which include plantain Ogonic Red (POR), plantain Agbagba 1 (PA1) Banana Ogoni Red (BOR) and Banana Native (BN). The …

Impact of Shape, Size and Crystal Structure on Vacancy Related Properties of Gold Nanoparticles
Abstract: It is necessary to consider defects to explain the electron movement, thermal transport and mechanical properties of materials. In the present study, a simple quantitative model for cohesive energy of nanoparticles is extended to determine the size, shape and crystal structure effect on vacancy formation energy, vacancy entropy, and vibrational frequency in free surface Au nanoparticles. Vacancy entropy variation with size has been studied for spherical, regular octahedral, regular hexahedral …

Analysis of Size and Shape Dependence of Thermophysical Properties of Nanomaterials
Abstract: A simple qualitative model, named Qi model which is further extended to Bond energy model has been expressed in terms of melting temperature to explain the shape and size effect on Debye temperature ( ) and Einstein temperature ( ) of nanomaterials. It is known that properties of materials drastically change with size reduction to nanorange and increase in the number of surface atoms with respect to volume of the …

Effect of Particle Size Mix Ratio of Clay and Agro-Based Material for AGO and PMS Treatment on Microbial Growth
Abstract: The characteristics of possible microbes isolated and identified on adsorption process involving AGO and PMS as contaminants in fresh water medium was monitored using agro – based materials. The formulated adsorbent is made of clay with ago-based materials of Banana Ogoni Red (BOR) Banana Native (BN), Plantain Agbagba 1 (PA1), and Plantain Ogoni Red (POR). The particle size mixed ratio of clay to the various agro-based materials were 150𝜇𝑚 R5:5, …
