Graphene was discovered in 2004 and has attracted intensive interests because of its unique mechanical, electric, thermal, optical, and structural properties, which makes graphene a potential candidate for various applications. Graphene is being used as a composite or filler material with metals, metal oxides, and polymers for potential advanced applications in solar cells, lithium-ion batteries, photocatalysis and sensing. These applications depend upon the distinctive properties of graphene, which in turn depend on the adopted synthetic approach. This article reviews the recent developments in synthesis of graphene and related composite materials. The synthesis of graphene through exfoliation, epitaxial growth and direct growth via carbon source, and modification approaches by covalent and noncovalent methodologies are discussed. Graphene-based metal and metal oxide composites for the purification of wastewater using photolytic process are also presented. 相似文献

A cross-section analytical study was conducted to evaluate the risk of pesticide exposure to those applying the Class II pesticides 2,4-D and paraquat in the paddy-growing areas of Kerian, Perak, Malaysia. It investigated the influence of weather on exposure as well as documented health problems commonly related to pesticide exposure. Potential inhalation and dermal exposure for 140 paddy farmers (handlers of pesticides) were assessed. Results showed that while temperature and humidity affected exposure, windspeed had the strongest impact on pesticide exposure via inhalation. However, the degree of exposure to both herbicides via inhalation was below the permissible exposure limits set by United States National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). Dermal Exposure Assessment Method (DREAM) readings showed that dermal exposure with manual spraying ranged from moderate to high. With motorized sprayers, however, the level of dermal exposure ranged from low to moderate. Dermal exposure was significantly negatively correlated with the usage of protective clothing. Various types of deleterious health effects were detected among users of manual knapsack sprayers. Long-term spraying activities were positively correlated with increasing levels of the gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) liver enzyme. The type of spraying equipment, usage of proper protective clothing and adherence to correct spraying practices were found to be the most important factors influencing the degree of pesticide exposure among those applying pesticides. 相似文献

This study was carried out to determine the sorption-desorption, degradation and leaching of napropamide in selected Malaysian soils. The sorption capacities of the selected Malaysian soils for napropamide were the following in descending order: Linau > Teringkap > Gunung Berinchang > Jambu > Rudua > Baging soil. The results indicate that napropamide degradation decreased with increasing soil sorption capacity. Napropamide was leached out earlier in the Baging soil than the other soils. Overall, the application of napropamide in the selected Malaysian soils would not pose a threat to the environment except in soil with low organic matter and clay content and high hydraulic conductivity, such as the Baging soil. 相似文献

Leachate pollution is one of the main problems in landfilling. Researchers have yet to find an effective solution to this problem. The technology that can be used may differ based on the type of leachate produced. Coliform bacteria were recently reported as one of the most problematic pollutants in semi-aerobic (stabilized) leachate. In the present study, the performance of the Electro-Fenton process in removing coliform from leachate was investigated. The study focused on two types of leachate: Palau Borung landfill leachate with low Coliform content (200 MPN/100 m/L) and Ampang Jajar landfill leachate with high coliform content (>24 × 104 MPN/100 m/L). Optimal conditions for the Electro-Fenton treatment process were applied on both types of leachate. Then, the coliform was examined before and after treatment using the Most Probable Number (MPN) technique. Accordingly, 100% removal of coliform was obtained at low initial coliform content, whereas 99.9% removal was obtained at high initial coliform content. The study revealed that Electro-Fenton is an efficient process in removing high concentrations of pathogenic microorganisms from stabilized leachate. 相似文献

Biomonitoring of multi-element atmospheric deposition using terrestrial moss is a well-established technique in Europe. Although
the technique is widely known, there were very limited records of using this technique to study atmospheric air pollution
in Malaysia. In this present study, the deposition of 11 trace metals surrounding the main petroleum refinery plant in Kerteh
Terengganu (eastern part of peninsular Malaysia) has been evaluated using two local moss species, namely Hypnum plumaeforme and Taxithelium instratum as bioindicators. The study was also done by means of observing whether these metals are attributed to work related to oil
exploration in this area. The moss samples have been collected at 30 sampling stations in the vicinity of the petrochemical
industrial area covering up to 15 km to the south, north, and west in radius. The contents of heavy metal in moss samples
were analyzed by energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence technique. Distribution of heavy metal content in all mosses is portrayed
using Surfer software. Areas of the highest level of contaminations are highlighted. The results obtained using the principal
components analysis revealed that the elements can be grouped into three different components that indirectly reflected three
different sources namely anthropogenic factor, vegetation factor, and natural sources (soil dust or substrate) factor. Heavy
metals deposited mostly in the distance after 9 km onward to the western part (the average direction of wind blow). V, Cr,
Cu, and Hg are believed to have originated from local petrochemical-based industries operated around petroleum industrial
area. 相似文献

Calanus sinicus is a large calanoid copepod and a dominant species in the coastal waters of Japan. During a research cruise in Sagami Bay on 18 June 1996, we found C. sinicus
performing an unusual diel vertical migration (DVM), a behavior that has not been reported in previous studies on this species. This study examined the DVM of C.
sinicus under different light environments and revealed the copepods characteristic response to light. Field and laboratory results show that the DVM of C.
sinicus is flexible and also confirmed its sensitivity and its rapid response to changing light environments. It is suggested that C. sinicus reacts to changes in absolute light intensity. This feature may be common in oceanic copepod species. The copepods quick reaction to light variation provides decreased predation risks and increased feeding opportunities, which make them a dominant survivor in coastal water habitats.Communicated by T.

During the summers of 2002 and 2004, in-stream integrated flow and concentration measurements for the total dissolved solids
in the Cheyenne River, South Dakota, USA was conducted in order to compare the obtained actual field measurements with the
predictions values made by the Bureau of Reclamation in the Environmental Impact Statement. In comparison to the actual field
measurements conducted in this study, The Bureau of Reclamation extension of a small database used in the analysis for the
impact of operations at the Angostura Unit over the past 50 years and into the future to predict the annual total dissolved
solid loadings doesn't represent the actual loading values and various conditions in the study area. Additional integrated
flow and concentration sampling is required to characterize the impact of the current Angostura Dam operations and Angostura
Irrigation District return flows on the Cheyenne River in different seasons of the year. 相似文献
