This article presents an extensive comparative study on dye sensitized solar cells with two types of transport layers made of ZnO nanorods and TiO2 mesoporous film, wherein bacterial pigment extracted from microorganism Serratia nematodiphila strain B2 is employed as a sensitizer. For performance enhancement via the plasmonic effect, Ag nanoparticles have been deposited onto conducting glass and used as counter electrode (CE). The efficiency and fill factor (averaged over 3 readings) are found to be approximately 2% and 43%, respectively, with TiO2 mesoporous film and 0.4% and 25%, respectively, with ZnO nanorod in the designed DSSCs. Experiments have been conducted with TiO2 film for ten weeks to evaluate the stability of the pigment. The findings suggest that bacterial pigments may possibly replace dyes, creating a new category of solar cells known as biopigment-sensitized solar cells.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":"2013 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135446269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, the double salt route has been developed as a very unique technique to prepare refractory grade magnesium oxide from seawater. Controlled addition of carrier reagent at the precipitating stage precipitates magnesium as double salt. The double salt is transformed to magnesium carbonate (MgCO3), which after calcination forms magnesium oxide (MgO). The product quality has been established by elemental analysis, PXRD, FTIR, TG/DTG, and FESEM. Commercially available MgCO3 and MgO of HiMedia have also been characterized simultaneously for comparison. The prepared magnesium oxide shows very high purity of 99.75%, which is shown from EDS measurement and PXRD and can be suitable as basic refractory material for industrial purposes.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135446550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The literature shows that the investigations are only related to the pulsating flow of nanofluid. Any study related to the pulsating flow of Jeffrey hybrid nanofluid in a vertical channel with Joule heating, thermal radiation, and heat source/sink did not report so far. The novelty of the present work is the investigation of entropy generation on pulsatile flow of Jeffrey hybrid nanofluid with Joule heating, thermal radiation and heat source/sink effects in a vertical channel. The transformation of the governing partial differential equations into a system of ordinary differential equations are made by applying the perturbation method and then numerically solved by fourth-order Runge-Kutta method aided by bvp4c shooting technique built-in MATLAB software. This work is useful for chemical engineering, blood cancer treatment, nano-drug delivery, pharmaceutical process, and biomedical aspects.The effects of various emerging parameters and variables on velocity, temperature, entropy generation, and the Bejan number are displayed through graphs. The consequences of physical parameters on heat transfer rate are prearranged in a table. This analysis demonstrates that the temperature of hybrid nanofluid increases with an increment in radiation parameter, and Eckert number. The entropy generation is an increasing function of Eckert number and radiation parameter whereas it decelerates with a rise in Hartmann number. The heat transfer rate has a higher impact in the case of (Au+Al 2 O 3 /Blood) hybrid nanofluid as compare to mono nanofluid.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70701730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is an urgent growing need for the economic and effective treatment of waste water. The carbon dots (CDs) being a fluorescent zero-dimensional material have active surface area capable of binding with toxic heavy metal ions and organic moieties in water. In this study, the CDs have been successfully synthesized from hemicellulose rich Psyllium husk by means of simple green microwave method. The successful formation of CDs and the chemical state of the CDs have been successfully evaluated. The active surface area of CDs arising due to the surface defects contributed by oxygen functionality on the surface has been assessed from FT-Raman and XPS reports. The fluorescence property of the CDs as extrapolated for the sensing of heavy metal ions confirmed the successful sensing of Cr(VI), Fe(II) and Fe(III) ions with a detection (concentration) limit of 0.06 mM, 0.1 M and 0.2 mM, respectively. The photo catalytic performance of the prepared CDs for the discolouration of organic dyes, especially, the cationic dyes is encouraging indicating the successful preparation of negatively charged CDs from the biowaste. Ultimately, the study provides a simple, economical and efficient microwave method for the conversion of biowaste to a smart zero-dimensional carbon material for heavy metal sensing and dye discoloration.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135611976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
