    Abstract: Increasing levels of textile dyes being discharged into the environment as industrial waste represent a serious threat to human health, life, resources and ecological systems. It is therefore necessary to treat wastewater from textile industries before discharging it into the environment. The aim of this project is to eliminate methyl orange (MO) f... Show More

    Abstract: Mechanism research in catalytic chemistry is both fascinating and confusing, particularly when it comes to solid-state catalysts, the nature of catalytic behaviours has been unidentified so far. For a mechanistic model to be acceptable, it should have an ability to explain all unique aspects of a given catalytic reaction and provide an illuminating... Show More

    Abstract: The determination of the ground state of the carbon dioxide molecule is conducted through matrix Hartree-Fock computations for a polyatomic molecule. Utilization of basis sets is implemented to achieve a precision that approaches the sub-μ Hartree of the CO2 molecule for the energy levels. Utilizing a 28s14p14d14f atom-centered and a 24sl0plld bond... Show More

    Abstract: Powdered Activated Carbon Adsorbent produced from Anchote peel (Coccinia abyssinica peel). Powdered Activated Carbon Adsorbent was investigated for its adsorption capacity for Cadmium (II) ion. Effects of parameters: pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial metal ion concentration, and temperature on adsorption of Cadmium (II) ion were investigate... Show More
