ULTRASOUND-ASSISTED SOIL WASHING PROCESSES FOR THE REMEDIATION OF HEAVY METALS CONTAMINATED SOILS: THE MECHANISM OF THE ULTRASONIC DESORPTION

Ultrasound-assisted soil washing processes for the remediation of heavy metals contaminated soils: The mechanism of the ultrasonic desorption

Ultrasound-assisted soil washing processes were investigated for the removal of heavy metals (Cu, Pb, and Zn) in real contaminated soils using HCl and EDTA.The ultrasound-assisted soil washing (US/Mixing) process was compared with the conventional soil washing (Mixing) process based on the mechanical mixing.High removal efficiency (44.8% for HCl an

Comparison of Patients Monoinfected with Hepatitis C Virus and Coinfected with Hepatitis B/C in the Amazon Region of Brazil

Hepatitis B and C are the most common causes of liver disease worldwide.The two infections share many similarities such as a global distribution, the same routes of transmission, hepatotropism, and the ability to cause chronic infection.The consequences of HBV/HCV coinfection are still being studied.The aim of this study is to describe and compare

Management of the aphid, Myzus persicae (Sulzer) and the whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), using biorational on capsicum under protected cultivation in India

Socks Abstract The peach aphid, Myzus persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and silver leaf whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) are the major pests of capsicum under protected cultivation.The entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are environmentally safe than the chemical pesticides.In the present study, different EPF formulations, Beauveria bassian

A fermionic portal to a non-abelian dark sector

We introduce a new class of renormalizable models for dark matter with a minimal particle Carpet content, consisting of a dark SU(2)D gauge sector connected to the standard model through a vector-like fermion mediator, not requiring a Higgs portal, in which a massive vector boson is the dark matter candidate.These models are labeled fermion portal
