Simarouba glauca DC is a tree of the family Simaroubaceae, which grows well up to 1,000 m above sea level in all types of well-drained soils (pH 5.5 to 8.0) and in places with 250 to 2,500 mm annual rainfall. The seed oil ...

The hydrometallurgical recovery of metals such as Co, Ni, Cu and Mn from PMN (Polymetallic Manganese Nodules) can be carried out in ammonia medium or sulphuric acid medium [1,2]. In both these routes, effluents are generated ...

Here, a hybrid material composed of sandwiched reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and N,S co-doped carbon quantum dots (N,S-CQDs) was prepared following a facile synthetic route. This metal-free composite has demonstrated their ...

Herein, we reported the facile synthesis of zirconium oxide (ZrO2) nanoparticles from an imidazole based organic precursor followed by calcination of 750 & DEG;C in the thermostat. The bonding properties of the as-synthesized ...

Room temperature and atmospheric pressure assisted hydrogenation of aromatic nitro compounds is achieved with a high proficiency over Schiff base Pt(II) complex supported montmorillonite. Usually hydrogenation reactions ...

Study of six different freshwater microalgae, collected from Odisha, eastern region of India, has been carried out to find out their potential for biodiesel production. The growth, total lipid, and fatty acid composition ...

Over the Indian region, aerosol absorption is considered to have a potential impact on the regional climate, monsoon and hydrological cycle. Black carbon (BC) is the dominant absorbing aerosol, whose absorption potential ...

This study presents surface ozone (O-3) and carbon monoxide (CO) measurements conducted at Bhubaneswar from December 2010 to November 2012 and attempts for the very first time a health risk assessment of the atmospheric ...

Seasonal variations of phytoplankton and chlorophyll-a along with its environmental variations including nutrients were studied from June-2004 to March-2007. Samples were collected in three different seasons pre-monsoon ...
