Sodium Lauryl sulfate (SLS) is a Anionic Surfactant, soluble in water. These surfactants are potentially dangerous environmental pollutants due to high volume use in laundry and cleaning products. Larger quantities release of these surfactants into environment can be a serious threat. The present work aims to study the removal of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) surfactant from aqueous solution by electrocoagulation method using aluminum and copper electrodes with and without perforations. FTIR analysis were performed for SLS surfactant before and after electrocoagulation process. Various...

Andrographolide is the main diterpenoid lactone contained in the leaves of Andrographis paniculata. This bioactive component has multifunctional medicinal properties such as activity against fever, dysentery, diarrhoea, inflammation, cancer and sore throat as well as immune disorder. No solvent is ideal for the extraction of Andrographolide, however we can consider 60% methanol for the model development. Cancer is the largest single cause of death in both men and women, claiming over 6 million each year in the world. CML accounts for about 20% cases of adult and childhood leukemia....

Dicofol is an organochlorine pesticide used for variety of fruit, vegetable and field crops. Its harmfulness, solid impact and malignancy causing nature influenced the living and health conditions of people and therefore the antagonistic impacts of Dicofol should be controlled on individuals. Thus, it is vital to focus on the evacuation of its deposits. This book emphasis on synthesis, characterization, catalysis of ZnO and Copper doped ZnO nanoparticles for the removal of dicofol.
