The present study describes the preparation of a new calix[4]arene-based sporopollenin material and its application for the removal of Na2Cr2O7 from aqueous solution. The novel calix[4]arene-based sporopollenin material was prepared via the immobilization of dihydrazine amide derivative of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (3) onto the modified sporopollenin. The newly prepared calix[4]arene-based sporopollenin is characterized by using different analytical techniques such as FT-IR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope and Elemental analysis. The batch wise sorption study was carried out to optimize various experimental parameters such as the effect of sorbent dosage, pH, temperature and Cr(VI) anion concentration. It has been found that the sorption of Cr(VI) anion on calix[4]arene-based sporopollenin was highly pH dependent and maximum sorption was achieved at pH 1.5. The sorption behavior was also evaluated by Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin Radushkevich isotherms. The value of correlation coefficient (R 2) showed a good agreement with Freundlich isotherm model. Result of study demonstrated that calix[4]arene-based sporopollenin proved to be highly effective for the removal of Cr(VI).

Endophytic fungi from medicinal plants: a treasure hunt for bioactive metabolites
Endophytic fungi are ubiquitous organisms found in the plants, residing intercellular or intracellular, at least for a portion of their lives without causing apparent symptoms of infection. Almost all plants are known to harbor endophytes. The choice of the plant to be used for exploring en ... more
Cocktail achieves superconducting boost
Physicists describe how they have synthesized a new material that belongs to the iron-selenide class of superconductors, called LixFe2Se2(NH3)y, in a paper about to be published in EPJ B. The work was carried out by Ernst-Wilhelm Scheidt from the University of Augsburg and colleagues. This ... more
US underestimates costs of carbon pollution and climate change
The U.S. federal government is significantly underestimating the costs of carbon pollution because it is using a faulty analytical model, according to a new study published in the Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences. A more appropriate accounting of costs would pave the way to cle ... more
