Potential Applications of Titanium Dioxide in Diverse FieldsBy Shazia Akhtar, P. Khan
Abstract: Metal oxide semiconductors, such as TiO2 nanoparticles are frequently used as photocatalyst due to non-toxicity, chemical stability, and the ability to possess relatively high photocatalytic activity of TiO2. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that organic compounds such as alcohols, carboxylic acid, phenolic derivatives, and chlorinated aromatics can be readily mineralized by TiO2 into harmless carbon dioxide, water and simple mineral acids, using molecular oxygen as the primary oxidant. Keywords: environmental pollution, …

A Review Status on Application of Separation Techniques in Daily LifeBy Shazia Akhtar, Naushad Khan
Abstract: In chemistry and related fields, a unit operation is the basic step in a process. Unit operations involve a physical change or chemical transformation such as separation, crystallization, evaporation, filtration, polymerization, isomerization, and other reactions. Researchers have developed economic ways of using materials and energy. Chemical engineers use chemistry and engineering to turn raw materials into usable products, such as medicine, petrochemicals and plastics on a large-scale industrial setting. They …

An Outline of Gasoline – A Petroleum ProductBy Shazia Akhtar
Abstract: Petrol is short for petroleum, which is unprocessed crude or shale oil. This liquid contains hydrocarbons, and the carbon atoms in crude oil link together in chains of different lengths. Gasoline (American English) or petrol (British English) is a transparent, petroleum-derived liquid that is used primarily as a fuel in internal combustion engines. Gas is short for gasoline, a petroleum byproduct, which is what the fuel used in most internal …
