Kaolin modification is carried out using lauric acid. Equilibrium and Kinetic\u0000analysis were studied to investigate the adsorption mechanism. The experimental work has conducted at 600C; at\u0000several contact times, different adsorbent amounts to find the optimum conditions. Results show an increase in the\u0000adsorption rate with increasing contact time. The maximum removal efficiency is obtained at about 80 min. No\u0000significant change in the equilibrium concentrations is achieved when increasing time after adsorption equilibrium is\u0000reached. Three equilibrium models were studied, Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherms. Results show that the\u0000Langmuir model isotherm fits well with the experimental data with R\u00002=0.997; the 𝑅𝐿 value is less than one, suggesting\u0000that the crude oil adsorption onto modified Kaolin is favourable. Furthermore, three kinetic models are studied to\u0000understand the mechanism of adsorption. Among these models, pseudo-second-order models fitted the experimental\u0000data perfectly.","PeriodicalId":23712,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4 Issue 1","volume":"PP 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84293381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study,the ability to inhibit corrosion of steel in an acidic medium was tested by measuring weight loss, potentiodynamic polarisation, scanning electron microscope techniques, and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy. Depending on weight loss, it was observed that inhibition efficiency increased with inhibitor concentration, while the corrosion rate decreased. The maximum inhibition efficiency was 93% for 0.6g/L in0.5M HCl. The results from the polarization curves showed that the\u0000extract behaved as a mixed-type corrosioninhibitor, and the maximum inhibition efficiency was 99% for 0.4 and 0.6g/L in 0.5M HCl. The molecule inhibitor adsorption isotherm plots showed that the adsorption of the extract follows the Langmuir isotherm. Scanning electron microscope techniques emphasized the prevent corrosion of the metal surface due to the adsorption of inhibitor molecules on its surface.","PeriodicalId":23712,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4 Issue 1","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80807358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Passages such as “you are of your father the devil,” were used to encourage Bible-believing Christians that Jesus himself was antisemitic and that those who held antipathy towards the Jews were following Jesus’s legacy. However, many of these passages that the Nazis used to support their antisemitism were taken out of context and the original intent of the author was ignored. Anti-Jewish Christian expositors also ignored the contexts of Biblical passages––expositors both during the time of the Nazis and earlier. This article will consider this decontextualization of the Bible by the Nazis and anti-Jewish theologians. It suggests that if the original meaning of the text has been obscured by decontextualization, the solution is not to reject the text as anti-Jewish, but rather to reevaluate the anti-Jewish interpretation and recontextualize the passage.","PeriodicalId":23712,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4 Issue 1","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84113023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the timeline of the Holocaust overlaps the timeline of the struggle for freedom for the Indian subcontinent, the later events overshadow the former. Holocaust education is neither mandatory nor prevalent in India. Equating the partition of India with the Holocaust and tagging the Holocaust as one of the genocides, represents one of the few misconceptions about the Holocaust in India that often strips off the uniqueness of the catastrophic event. My article describes the present status of Holocaust education in schools and universities. The survey stems from the standard books used in Indian schools and my personal experience as an educator. The article not only articulates the need of creating awareness regarding the Holocaust in India but also traces a few examples, which illuminate the fact that India proved a haven for Jewish refugees during the Holocaust. The need of the hour is to recognize such connections, which would serve as the appropriate entry wedges to create awareness regarding Holocaust education in India.","PeriodicalId":23712,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4 Issue 1","volume":"147 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86111377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
