Preliminary photochemical studies of fluorene in various aqueous media

- The current study investigates the direct photochemical degradation of aqueous fluorene with the aid of a 125W polychromatic medium, pressure Hg lamp. The purpose was to test the effectiveness of the lamp in irradiation using fluorene spiked solution as substrate. A 700 ml volume of fluorene solution of 0.002 mg/l was irradiated batch-wise at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 and 48 h. The amount of fluorene removal was studied for fluorene solutions prepared from , neutral (distilled water), acidic (by adjusting pH with hydrochloric acid, HCl), basic (by adjusting pH with sodium hydroxide, NaOH) and saline (addition of sodium chloride, NaCl) solutions and there was 95.95, 92.35, 96.65 and 97.15 % remo…

Effect of UV Irradiation on Conjugated Linoleic Acid (9c 11t and 10t 12c)

This study was carried out to examine the effects of UVA irradiation on the Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) isomers; 9c11t CLA and 10t12c CLA. CLA 9c11t free fatty acid (90%) and 10t12c-Octadecadienoic acid methyl ester (90%) samples in UV transparent cuvettes sealed under nitrogen gas were subjected to UVA irradiation at 365 nm. About four drops of each sample were taken out at regular intervals. These irradiated samples were analyzed using IR spectroscopy and Gas Chromatography (GC). The second derivative profiles of the IR spectra of UVA irradiated 9c11t CLA and 10t12c CLA show the decrease in intensity of the peaks at wavenumbers at 944 and 986. Furthermore, a slight increase in the inte…
