Mesoporous activated carbon from eggshell waste via H₃PO₄ chemical activation and its application in the removal of Janus Green B dye
...Show More Authors

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the adsorption efficiency of two adsorbent materials, Iraqi chicken eggshells (ESh) and activated carbon (AC) derived from ESh powder for the removal of a cationic dye (Janus green B; JGD) from aqueous solution. Activated carbon was synthesised from ESh using a simple chemical activation method using phosphoric acid as the activating agent. The physicochemical properties of the adsorbents were characterised by the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method, FT-IR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), and point of zero charge (pHpzc). The results of BET analysis confirmed that AC has a higher specific surface area (4.146 m2/g) compared to ESh (1.561 m2/g). The effects of operational parameters including contact time (5–60 min for ESh and 5–30 min for AC), adsorbent dose (0.05–1 g/10 mL), temperature (298–318 K), and pH (3.72–11.36) were systematically investigated. Optimal adsorption occurred at pH 11.36, where JGD removal efficiencies reached 90.13% with 0.2 g/10 mL of ESh after 60 min and 92.89% with 0.1 g/10 mL of AC after 30 min at 298 K. Equilibrium data were best fitted by the Freundlich isotherm model, yielding adsorption capacities of 0.09 mg/g for ESh and 1.85 mg/g for AC at 318 K and pH 5.5. The high correlation coefficient (R2 = 0.99) confirmed favourable heterogeneous adsorption. Kinetic data followed the pseudo-second-order model (R2 = 0.99). Thermodynamic parameters (ΔG°, ΔH°, ΔS°) indicated that JGD adsorption onto ESh was spontaneous (ΔG°<0), exothermic (ΔH°<0), and associated with decreased randomness (ΔS°<0), while adsorption onto AC was spontaneous (ΔG°<0), endothermic (ΔH°>0), and accompanied by increased randomness (ΔS°>0). The adsorption mechanism was attributed to electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and π–π interactions. Desorption experiments demonstrated that 0.2 mol/L HNO₃ effectively regenerated both adsorbents. After seven adsorption–desorption cycles, AC exhibited superior stability and reusability compared to ESh.

The idea of divinity for al-Kindi and its roots in Greece
...Show More Authors

Perceptions of deity have practical effects in a person’s life, especially in his attitudes toward natural things since nature was created, in which man has treated it as something sacred. The Greek philosophers before Plato and Aristotle did not find in them the idea of divinity clear. Rather, they all searched for the first substance or the first cause of existence, and then gave it all the attributes of God from eternity and eternity, and considered it a first reason without which the universe would not have existed. knowledg

Effect of Alkali - Activated Natural Pozzolan on Mechanical Properties of Geopolymer Concrete
...Show More Authors
Abstract<p>As an alternative to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), the alkali-activated binders have been developed with better technical characteristics and more extended durability. The Alkali-Activated Iraqi Natural Pozzolans (AANP) could produce geopolymer cementation building materials and make them ecologically acceptable. The primary advantage of geopolymer cement is that it has a lower environmental effect that contributes to it. The engineering characteristics of geopolymer concrete produced using activated Iraqi natural Pozzolan are summarized in this research. The mechanical properties, modulus of elasticity, and ultrasonic pulse velocity of various concrete mixes were determined via exp</p> ... Show More

Comparison of HF and HCl Chemical Laser Parameters by using Mathematical Model
...Show More Authors

A simplified theoretical comparison of the hydrogen chloride (HCl) and hydrogen fluoride (HF) chemical lasers is presented by using computer program. The program is able to predict quantitative variations of the laser characteristics as a function of rotational and vibrational quantum number. Lasing is assumed to occur in a Fabry-Perot cavity on vibration-rotation transitions between two vibrational levels of hypothetical diatomic molecule. This study include a comprehensive parametric analysis that indicates that the large rotational constant of HF laser in comparison with HCl laser makes it relatively easy to satisfy the partial inversion criterion. The results of this computer program proved their credibility when compared with th

In this study, the chamomile flowers (Matricaria recutitaL) which grow in Iraqi Kurdistan region during the seasons of (2008) are collected. The percentage of essential oil was determined by using steam distillation and the extraction of flowers performed with petroleum ether (70-80) ºC and methanol 70% using ultrasonic extraction. Total phenolic compounds were determined from methanol extracts by using Folin-Ciocalteu method. The extracts were evaluated by thin layer chromatography, ultraviolet absorption and the biological activities were evaluated through their antibacterial action against two types of bacteria using hole method. The flowers showed a composition of 0.071% ash, 0.4% essential oil, 3.2% non oily compounds, 4% oil, 1.9% mo
