Heavy metal elimination from industrial wastewater using natural substrate on pitcher irrigation by Negar Nourmahnad, Kamran Asgari, Najmeh Samadi

“…The sealed samples were transported to the laboratory for analyzing heavy metals (Fe, Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Mn, and Zn) using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results showed that the used substrates in this experiment have high ability to absorb some heavy metals, especially Pb and Zn which concentration were increased in final value 75 and 80 times compared with initial values, respectively. …”

Modeling predicts facile release of nitrite but not nitric oxide from the thionitrate CH3SNO2 with relevance to nitroglycerin bioactivation by Vinod Parmar, Esam A. Orabi, Ann M. English, Gilles H. Peslherbe

“…Dramatically lower barriers (ΔH ‡ calc ~ 17–21 kcal/mol) control NO2 − release from CH3SNO2 by gas-phase hydrolysis or nucleophilic attack by OH− or CH3S− on the sulfur atom within the C–S–NO2 molecular plane. Moreover, attack by either anion along the S–NO2 bond results in barrierless NO2 − release (ΔH ‡ calc ~ 0 kcal/mol) since a σ-hole (i.e., area of positive electrostatic potential) extends from this bond. …”

Effectiveness of Apple Cider Vinegar Immersion with and Without Mother as a Decrease in Lead (Pb) Levels in Green Mussels (Perna viridis) by Siti Nur Muhibbatul Jannah, Eka Farpina, Ganea Qorry Aina

“…The sample is prepared by drying the sample in the oven and extracting the sample using wet destruction so that a clear liquid is obtained that can be measured using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results showed that the average lead levels sample soaked by apple cider vinegar with mothers were 0.219 mg/L, 0.103 mg/L, 0.088 mg/L, without mothers were 0.205 mg/L, 0.173 mg/L, 0.125 mg/L. …”

Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Vibrational Frequency Calculations of Species in Liquid-Liquid Phase Separated MgSO4 Solution at 543 K by Mengzi Zhou, Xiancai Lu, Xiandong Liu, Yingchun Zhang, Xiaoyu Zhang, Kai Wang

“…Furthermore, bidentate Mg-SO4 ligand is less stable than monodentate ligands at 543 K by applying free energy calculations. Our findings give atomic level recognition of concentrated phase in liquid-liquid phase separated MgSO4 fluids and theoretical explanation of the 980 cm-1 Raman peak shifting, which will further inspire understandings on nucleation processes of hydrated sulfate minerals and Raman spectra resolving of other sulfate systems.…”
