PG Autonomous College, Durg- 491001, C.G., India<#LINE#>21/4/2016<#LINE#>10/3/2017<#LINE#>Gold nanoparticles encapsulated alginate microspheres were synthesized and evaluated as a nanoadsorbent for removing Safranin Orange from aqueous solutions. Gold nanoparticles were prepared and characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and FT-IR. The adsorption of Safranin Orange was examined by batch technique. The effects of pH, initial Safranin Orange concentration, adsorbent dosage and contact time on the efficiency of Safranin Orange removal were studied for the batch method. The equilibrium data analyzed by using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models showed better agreement with the latter model. Kinetic studies were conducted and the resulting data were analyzed using first- and second-order equations; pseudo-second-order kinetic equation was found to provide the best correlation. Repeated adsorption and desorption cycles were performed to examine the stability and reusability of the nanoadsorbent. The result of this study proved high stability and reusability of Gold nanoparticles encapsulated alginate microspheres as an adsorbent for Safranin Orange dye.<#LINE#>Kiran I., Akar T., Ozcan A.S., Ozcan A. and Tunali S.

The annual average daily global solar radiation is about 16.7 MJ/m2/day which is sufficient to generate the solar energy. Radiation is calculated as the product of the atmospheric transmissivity of radiation and radiation outside earth atmosphere. The model parameters are fitted in two years data. The values estimated by the models are compared with measured solar radiation data. The performance of the model was evaluated using root mean square error (RMSE), mean bias error (MBE), Coefficient of Residual Mass (CRM) and coefficient of determination (R2). The RadEst 3.0 software which showed the better results using BC, CD, DB and DCBB, among them the DB model is the best model for this site. The values of RMSE, MBE, CRM and R2 are 2.98, 1.27, 0.00 and 0.66 respectively. The finding coefficients of different models can be utilized for the estimation of solar radiation at the similar meteorological sites of Nepal. The result conformed that there is strong correlation of total solar radiation with altitude and local weather condition.<#LINE#>Poudyal K.N., Bhattarai B.K., Sapkota B. and Kjeldstad B.

This region is dominated by a semi-arid climate. A total of twenty five water samples have been collected. The physicochemical parameters determined in water by standardized methods werepH, electrical conductivity (EC), major ions (calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, sulphate, carbonate and bicarbonate) and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). According to the Piper diagram, the region mainly contains Na-Ca–HCO3 followed by Na-HCO3-Cl, Ca-Na-HCO3-SO4 and Mg-Ca-Na-HCO3 water types. The contents of sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, sulphate and bicarbonatein the waters of the area areexplained by the dissolution of halite, calcite, dolomite and gypsum and other reactions like cation exchange and weathering of minerals of basement rocks.<#LINE#>Jalali M.

In the present study, efforts have been made to develop magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles activated carbon composite (MIONAC). The activated carbon is prepared from corncob using zinc chloride as an activating agent in a modified muffle furnace with N2-gas inflow arrangement and magnetic nanoparticles by chemical co-precipitation method. The prepared corncob activated carbon (CCAC) and Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles activated carbon composite (MIONAC) are characterized for  N2-BET surface area, SEM, FT-IR, XRD, TEM, pHpzc and VSM. The N2-BET surface area of the MIONAC (807 m2g-1) is found lesser than the prepared CCAC (1429 m2g-1). MIONAC exhibits super magnetic properties under external magnetic field with saturation magnetization value 4.15 emu/g at room temperature. SEM of the CCAC and MIONAC shows the presence of cracks and crevices. TEM of MIONAC shows nanoparticles with size in between 10-20 nm. A broad peak at 2&#952; = 240 in XRD of CCAC and MIONAC indicates the presence of amorphous carbon. The adsorption isotherms and kinetic studies using CCAC and MIONAC as adsorbents and phenols as adsorbates. The adsorption data shows that the adsorption capacity (Q0) value of MIONAC (90 mg/g) is slightly lesser than the CCAC (125 mg/g). Langmuir kinetic model best suits for determination of adsorption and desorption constants for organic pollutants phenols on both CCAC & MIONAC.<#LINE#>Singh Shripal and Yenkie Mahesh K.N.

Naturally our ancestor depended on flora surrounding us, and so made an elaborate study of planet. As such the medicinal importance of plants have been recognized since then compound having importance therapeutic values with a view of ameliorate human sufferings. Systematic physiochemical analysis of drug, used in indigenous medicine was taken up on modern scientific lines about fifty years ago and a large number of importance medicinal plants prescribed by Kavirajs and Hakims have been investigated. Similarly a number of plants are being utilized for the preparations of anti fertility and anti-cancer drugs and in a country like India, where population control is must, such type of drugs derived from plants materials will play a significant role in the socio-economic problem of the country. Vigorous researches have therefore, to be carried out plant sources which can be used as anti-cancer drugs. A survey carried out by Gujarat state in 1990 has revealed the presence of about eleven hundred efficacious drugs of which about five hundred are newly discovered.<#LINE#>Singh G.B., Singh S. and Bani S.

The pulp prepared with 12% NaOH had moisture content of 8.8% and a yield of 36.9% on the average. The pulp was bleached and exposed to air to form “white crumbs”. The aged crumbs was mixed with carbon disulphide at a controlled temperature of 300C to form cellulose xanthate (C6H9O4 – S –SNa)n which was then converted to regenerated cellulose on further treatment with tetraoxosulphate (VI) acid at a yield of 36.4%. This work has revealed that plantain pseudo stem waste can be converted to regenerated cellulose for diverse applications.<#LINE#>Browning B.L.
