TL;DR: In this article, a novel process of recovering from high tellurium-bearing materials by alkaline sulfide leaching followed sodium sulfite precipitation is developed, where the influences of Na 2 S concentration, leaching temperature, liquid to solid ratio and leaching time were studied during the leaching process.

TL;DR: The intention of this study was to evaluate the effect of the reactive additives sodium sulfite, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and urea on the oxygen barrier, water vapor barrier, and protein solubility of whey protein cast films.
Abstract: Whey protein coatings and cast films are promising for use as food packaging materials. Ongoing research is endeavoring to reduce their permeability. The intention of this study was to evaluate the effect of the reactive additives sodium sulfite, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and urea on the oxygen barrier, water vapor barrier, and protein solubility of whey protein cast films. The concentration of the reactive additives was 1 to 20 wt.-%. Dried whey protein cast films were used as substrate materials. The water vapor transmission rate, the oxygen permeability, and the protein solubility were measured. Effective diffusion coefficients and effective sorption coefficients were calculated from the results of the water vapor sorption experiments. The presence of sodium sulfite resulted in an increased number of hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds and a slightly decreased number of disulfide bonds. The oxygen permeability decreased from 68 to 46 cm³ (STP / standard temperature and pressure) 100 µm (m² d bar)-1 for 1 wt.-% SDS in the whey protein cast film. The water vapor transmission rate decreased from 165 to 44 g 100 µm (m² d)-1 measured at 50 to 0 % r. h. for 20 wt.-% SDS in the whey protein cast film. The reduction in the water vapor transmission rate correlated with the lower effective diffusion coefficient.

TL;DR: In this paper, the band-gap energy of CdSe with an atomic ratio (Cd/Se) of 1 showed a value of 1.74 eV, but that with the ratio of 2.3 gave a slightly smaller value of 0.42 eV.
Abstract: Crystalline CdSe particles were prepared by keeping the precursor solutions at temperatures above 60 °C. It was essential to use sodium sulfite as a stabilizing agent for selenium ions and sodium dicarboxylate as a complexing agent for cadmium in the precursor solution. The principal crystalline phase of the samples obtained at 60 °C was a cubic zincblende-type phase, but those prepared at 80 °C coexisted with a hexagonal wurtzite-type phase. The ratio of cadmium to selenium in the samples decreased with an increase of the concentration of selenourea in the precursor solutions, irrespective of the kind of complex agents and the keeping time of the precursor solutions. The band-gap energy of CdSe with an atomic ratio (Cd/Se) of 1 showed a value of 1.74 eV, but that with the ratio of 2.3 gave a slightly smaller value of 1.42 eV.

TL;DR: In this article, the photoefficiency for the photocatalytic reduction of nitrite to ammonia using sodium sulphate and sodium sulphite as sacrificial agents was found to be 2.6%.
Abstract: CdS catalysts, prepared using difference precursors, were characterized and tested for the photocatalytic reduction of nitrite to ammonia using sodium sulphate and sodium sulphite as sacrificial agents. The catalyst prepared from cadmium nitrate and sodium sulphide and treated at 623 K showed maximum activity. The activity was enhanced by loading with noble metals, such as Ru, Pd or Ir, or by the use of hole transferring agents, such as RuO2. The photoefficiency for the photocatalytic reduction of nitrite to ammonia was found to be 2.6%.
