Discussion of a Master’s Thesis
The Department of Chemistry at the College of Education for Pure Sciences at the University of Karbala discussed a master’s thesis entitled (Studying the possibility of negative ions adsorption from water using a new nanocomposite polymer), by the student (Zahra Mahmoud Shaker Saeed), and under the supervision of the Dean of the College of Education for Pure Sciences, Prof. Hamida Idan Salman, and scientific assistant Prof. Muhammad Nazim Bahgat.
The objective of the thesis was, the possibility of using the nano-copolymer to remove dyes in their aqueous solutions, and to study the best conditions for the removal process, represented by the amount of adsorbent surface, the acidity function and temperature, and also aimed at calculating the thermodynamic functions of the removal process, and studying the adsorption isotherms and their applicability with Lankmire and Freundlich equations. The thesis showed the possibility of using the surface of the nano-copolymer to remove the dyes (orange-G Reactive yellow 145, Acid fuchsin))
It also showed the effect of temperature on the adsorption of the three dyes (orange (G, Reactive yellow 145, Acid fuchsin)) on the surface of the prepared nano-copolymer, where the results showed that the adsorption process decreases with increasing temperature, which means that the process is an exothermic process. The student received an honors grade.
The researcher recommended studying the possibility of using new surfaces and studying their ability to remove these dyes, using nanoparticle polymers as drug delivery systems, conducting extensive studies on the methods of preparing used nanocomposites, and using other processes to remove water, air and land pollutants. The student received an honors grade.
