Microwave synthesis and antifungal evaluations of some chalcones and their derived diaryl-cyclohexenones

Microwave irradiation (MWI) of acetophenones and substituted benzaldehydes in water resulted in a “green-chemistry” procedure for the preparation of chalcones (1-14), through base catalyzed Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction, in good yields. Further 3,5-diaryl-6-carbethoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-ones (1a-14a) were prepared through base catalyzed cyclocondensation of above chalcones with ethylacetoacetate using MWI as the energy source and silica as support. Out of fourteen cyclohexenones, ten (1a, 4a, 5a, 6a, 7a, 9a, 10a, 11a, 12a and 13a) are reported for the first time in literature. The synthesized compounds were characterized using various spectroscopic techniques, viz. (¹H NMR and IR) and screened for their antifungal activity in vitro against Sclerotium rolfsii and Rhizoctonia solani by poisoned food technique. The compounds tested were found to be active against R. solani whereas against S. rolfsii, moderate activity was observed, as evident from LC₅₀ values. The most potent compounds against R. solani were 1-(4-Fluoro-phenyl)-3-phenyl-propenone (13) and 1,3-Diphenyl-propenone (14) having LC₅₀ values of 2.36 and 2.49 mgL^{? 1} respectively (LC₅₀ of Hexaconazole = 1.12 mgL^{? 1}) and against S. rolfsii 3-(4-Fluoro-phenyl)-5-(3-nitro-phenyl)-6-carbethoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one (12a) was most active having LC₅₀ value of 285 mgL^{? 1}compared to Hexaconazole (LC₅₀ = 1.27 mgL^{? 1}).     

Comparison of Microwave Assisted Extraction with Conventional (Homogenization,Vortexing) for the Determination of Incurred Salinomycin in Chicken Eggs and Tissues

Abstract

Incurred and fortified salinomycin residues were extracted from chicken tissues and eggs by homogenization, vortexing and by microwave assisted extraction. The salinomycin residues were quantitated by liquid chromatography following postcolumn derivatization with either vanillin or 4-dimethylamino-benzaldehyde and detected at 520 or 592 nm, respectively. Comparison of residue data indicated that microwave assisted extraction performed as well as the vortexing technique in extracting salinomycin residues in the tissues of laying chickens that were fed meal containing drugs at various level. In the present study, extracts from homogenizing could not be analyzed directly without clean up. Therefore, microwave assisted extraction appears to be a reliable, reproducible, and economical substitute for routinely used homogenization and vortexing extraction techniques.     

城市污水厂污泥的浸泡油炸

提出了一种利用餐厨废油为热交换介质,在常压下对城市污水厂污泥进行油炸干化制成固体燃料,以实现城镇两大废弃物一污泥和餐厨废油综合处置的方法。以大豆油模拟餐厨废油,研究了污泥油炸干燥特性及过程影响参数。实验结果表明,污泥经油炸干化后,干基含水率从初始的4．56kg／kg降低至0．05kg／kg,干基含油率升为0．37～0．47kg／kg,干污泥热值达到21．551～24．082MJ／kg,是一种高热值固体燃料。油温对污泥油炸干化过程影响显著,当油温从120℃升至180℃时,污泥干燥时间从28min缩短至4min。实验条件下,1t餐厨废油可处理约8．3t湿污泥。

污泥直接干化产生的恶臭及挥发性有机物特征研究

利用水泥窑高温的特性协同处置城市污水厂污泥,无害化处置污泥的同时实现能源再生利用.本研究实地调查和监测广州越堡水泥有限公司污泥干化生产线的干化尾气成分,解析污泥干化过程产生恶臭及挥发性有机物的特征和主要来源,为污泥的有效处理处置提供科学的参考依据.结果表明,干化尾气中带有大量的恶臭物质及挥发性有机物.恶臭物质以二氧化硫等含硫物质为主,挥发性有机物以苯系物为主.污泥的性质以及热介质(窑尾气)的成分对恶臭物质及挥发性有机物的产生有影响.经过干化,污泥中的总有机物显著减少.蛋白质、挥发性脂肪酸、多糖等有机物含量也明显降低.干化尾气中的挥发性有机物来自于污泥中的有机物;二氧化硫、二硫化碳等含硫物质一部分源自污泥中的含硫物质,一部分来自于用于干化污泥的窑尾气.

污泥直接干化尾气中恶臭污染物质重要性评价:以指标权重评分法为例

利用水泥窑协同处置污泥可同时实现污泥的无害化、减量化和资源化.水泥回转窑处置污泥时须先对污泥进行干化使其含水率达到要求.污泥受热干化时会释放恶臭物质,易引发恶臭污染,对周围环境和居民生活造成影响.以污泥直接干化产生的尾气为对象,基于目前国内外恶臭污染相关规定,综合考虑污泥直接干化产生的尾气中物质浓度、嗅阈值、阈限值、气味安全级别以及饱和蒸气压,通过指标权重评分方法筛选出污泥直接干化产生尾气中的主要恶臭污染物.以恶臭污染潜力为评价目标,风险指标和臭气排放强度为评价指标,通过韦伯-费希纳定律构建污泥直接干化产生尾气的恶臭污染潜力分级评价模型,形成适合污泥直接干化产生尾气的恶臭污染潜力分级评价方法.
