Polluting potential of post-Fenton products in landfill leachate treatment by M.R. Sabour, A. Amiri

“…Finally, by including further conventional parameters such as sludge quantity, the best operational conditions (X1 = 5.7, X2 = 16, X3 = 207 mM) were optimized by response surface methodology to 27.4% and 14.4% for sludge and effluent mass content ratio, respectively, and 58.1% for mass removal efficiency. The results were in good agreement with determination coefficient (R2) of 0.94–0.97, prediction R2 of 0.80–0.93 and coefficient of variation less than 10.…”

GO/Co-MOF/NiMnCu nanocomposite as a possible candidate for the future of the supercapacitor generations by Elham Mazaheri, Ali Bahari, Shahram Ghasemi

“…Our findings show that GO/ CoMOF/ NiMnCu sample has higher specific surface area, good porosity than their individual components. Thus, GO/ CoMOF/ NiMnCu sample has much larger specific capacitance, which can affect the sample structure and improve electrical characteristics, yield to more occupation sites and/or specific surface area, enhancement of the carrier (electrons, ions) transportation in the supercapacitor devices. …”
