Rapid Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatographic Assay of Pinaverium Bromide and Its Stabilitystudies”

摘要

Industrial effluents are one of the important sources of harmful chemicals that are drained into land and water bodies without treatment leading to severe impact on environment. Marine algae are currently used for treating the industrial effluent effectively. They are mostly used as an adsorbent and also as a biofilters for treating industrial effluent. In this present study, different extracts of four marine algae such as Ulva lactuca, Enteromorpha flexuosa, Grateluopia lithophila and Centroceras clavulatum from Covelong, Tamil Nadu, India were used to treat the leather industry effluents collected from Nagalkeni village, Pallavaram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. Among all, extracts of Ulva lactuca reduced more amounts of chemicals present in the effluent. Benzene extract of Ulva lactuca showed good reduction in TDS (85%), sulphate (82%) and nitrate (91%). Hardness (81%) and chloride (91%) content was reduced more by methanolic extract of Ulva lactuca. Chloroform extract of Ulva lactuca reduced more amount of chromium (91%) present in the effluent.
