Summary: Novel visible-light photocatalyst TiO2-FG/Sr-hexaferrite nanocomposites were fabricated using a simple hydrothermal technique, and their properties were analyzed using various techniques. The unique composite catalyst showed superior photocatalytic properties for the disintegration of organic dyes under visible-light irradiation due to the synergistic effect of TiO2-FG and the fast conducting path provided by the graphene surface. The ternary structure between TiO2, FG, and Sr-hexaferrites also contributed to the high photocatalytic behavior.

Summary: A nano flower-like p-n heterojunction photocatalyst BiOBr/TiO2 was prepared with enhanced photocatalytic activity for degrading Methyl Orange and gaseous formaldehyde. The narrow band gap p-type BiOBr improves visible light absorption, while its p-n heterojunction with TiO2 significantly enhances separation efficiency of photogenerated electron hole pairs. The multi-dimensional nanoflower structure not only improves light utilization but also exposes more catalytic active sites.

Summary: This study focuses on the synthesis of a proton exchange membrane for microbial fuel cells (MFCs) that can simultaneously produce bioelectricity and treat domestic wastewater. The membrane was prepared through ionizing irradiation-induced graft copolymerization and sulfonation processes. The prepared membranes were characterized for their structural, thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties, as well as physicochemical characteristics. The results confirmed the successful preparation of a suitable membrane for the proposed application. Additionally, the performance of the assembled MFC was thoroughly investigated, including its electrochemical behavior and wastewater treatment capability. The study found that the sulfonated LDPE-g-P(GMA-co-VAc) membrane with an 80% grafting degree showed substantial removal of chemical oxygen demand and had promising power density.

Summary: Glycidyl Methacrylate (GMA) was grafted onto Polycarbonate (PC) using a radiation-induced grafting technique, followed by amination and quaternization to synthesize Q[A(PC-g-PGMA)]. The effects of total concentration, monomer concentration, and absorbed dosage on the degree of grafting (DG) were studied. The structure of the resultant Q[A(PC-g-PGMA)] was characterized using FTIR, SEM, and TGA. Q[A(PC-g-PGMA)] was used in a batch procedure to investigate the sorption efficiency of I-131 in varied concentrations of HCl and/or HNO3 solutions. The thermodynamic parameters indicated that the sorption process of I-131 was endothermic and spontaneous.

Acyclovir can form a complex with Tb3+ ion in DMSO, and the luminescence intensity of the complex increases with increasing drug concentration. The linear range for determination of acyclovir in DMSO was found to be 1.0 x 10(-9) - 1 x 10(-5) mol L-1 with a detection limit of 0.24 x 10(-9) mol L-1.
