Opis

In the first chapter of this compilation, the author reviews the sorption properties of magnetite with respect to hexavalent chromium ions and the possibility of its use as a sorbent for removing these toxic ions from contaminated aqueous solutions. In the second chapter, the authors summarize the importance of oxadiazole in medicinal chemistry for the management of various diseases. The third chapter discusses the developing technology of carbon capture and storage, a technique to reduce the impact of greenhouse gases, and how ionic liquids can be leveraged in this context. Following this, the authors describe how methanol to gasoline processes, specifically those using zeolites and zeolite-based catalysts, provide a viable alternative route for gasoline production. The final chapter proposes a revision of the standard model of photosynthesis based on new understanding generated through gravitational mass spectroscopy.
