    An Interior Needle Electropolymerized Pyrrole-Based Coating for Headspace Solid-Phase Dynamic Extraction of Chlorophenols

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Kamal Abyaneh, Zahra (Author) ; Bagheri, Habib (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Nowadays, the inside needle capillary adsorption trap (INCAT) technique as a solventless sample preparation approach and alternative extraction method derived from SPME is gaining rising attentions. The INCAT and needle-trap devices are inexpensive, robust, reusable, and are applicable for sampling and analyzing suitable organic compounds from many different sample matrices. Compared to the fragile silica-based SPME fiber, the needle device is nearly impossible to break mechanically. In addition, the extraction medium possesses quite a large extraction phase volume and a powerful preconcentration capability. Similar to SPME, needle-like devices are particularly convenient for automation and...

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Rezvani, Omid (Author) ; Bagheri, Habib (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Porosity and high surface area is a profound concept for creating advance materials. Nanofibers are an important class of nano materials which would be used as novel sorbents because of their high surface to volume ratio as a result of long lengths and nano-to-micro-scale diameters. Electrospining is a simple method for producing fine nanofibers from different meterials such as, polymers, composites and ceramics to prepare highly efficient sorbents. Moreover, electrospining has been developed for fabricating nanofibers with core-shell structures. These structures in compared with conventional fibers have gained higher attentions due to their high aspect ratios and flexiblity in surface...

    Abstract
    Chlorinated benzenes are a group of cyclic aromatic compounds which are used mainly as intermediates in the synthesis of pesticides and other chemicals. These compounds have harmful effects on human health, as on blood, kidneys, skin and eyes, and cause biological disorders and cancers. Chlorobenzenes have been ranked as priority pollutants by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The permissible level of these compounds for drinking water ranges between 2 μg/L and 1 mg/L. Hence determination of these compounds is of a significant importance. Solid Phase Dynamic Extraction (SPDE) of 5 types of chlorobenzenes (monochlorobenzene, 1,4-dichlorobenzene, 1,2,3-trichlorobenzene,...
