Environmental aspects of selected electrochemical and agglomeration interactions in solutions

Abstract

The first section of the work focused on further use, testing and new applications of the recently proposed new possibilities of preparation, arrangement and utilization of potentiometric interactions of amalgam electrodes, especially testing changes of potential responses of silver amalgam electrodes within the ion-exchange treatment of water as well as utilization of potentiometric signal of the zinc amalgam electrode for the detection of concentration changes of zinc sulphate. The second part of the work aimed attention at the special use or testing of the recently described (Novotny) relations for fitting or evaluating adsorption, electrosorption and agglomeration data. In view of this, the fitting kinetics of silver nanoparticles agglomeration in relation to time was described using appropriate statistical methods like the forward stepwise regression analysis.
