Photocatalytic inhibition of algae growth using TiO2, WO3, and cocatalyst modifications

Article Abstract:

TiO2 and WO3 were used in experiments to prohibit the attachment and growth of Oedogonium, a type of algae. The article is broken down into an introduction, a description of the experiment, and results and discussion of the experiment.

Surfactant-templated mesoporous silicate materials as sorbents for organic pollutants in water

Article Abstract:

In this study, hexagonal mesoporous materials were synthesized 23 degrees Celsius using hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide and tetramethyl-orthosilicate or Nasilicate. These synthesized materials were then studied to see if they could act as sorbents for organic pollutants in water and ascontaminant barrier components. The study is broken down into an introduction, a discussion of the experiment, and a discussion of the results.

Size and composition biases on the detection of individual ultrafine particles by aerosol mass spectrometry

Article Abstract:

Aerosol mass spectrometers are used to count particles on the basis of size and chemical make-up. Ultrafine particles were studied in this experiment and were found to have extensive fragmentation, making it hard to differentiate between aliphatic and aromatic components. The study is broken down into an introduction, discussion of the experiement, and a discussion of the results.
