This paper presents the synthesis and antimicrobial studies of Palladium (II) complexes of ThioSemicarbazone Pd (L1H)2Cl2 and Semicarbazone Pd (L2H)2Cl2 derived from 5-Bromo Isatin. All complexes reported here had been characterised by1H NMR and IR spectral studies .the complexes are diamagnetic in nature and showing square planner geometry. The IR spectral data reveals that both the Schiff’s bases behave as bidentate ligands and are co-ordinated to Pd (II) metal through the sulfur and hydrogenic nitrogen atom. All the new synthesized compounds were screened for antibacterial activity against four of the test organisms like Bacillus pumilus, Micrococcus Lutes, E.coli, Salmonella abony.

The present study was performed for the period of one year from June 2012 to May 2013 in order to understand the level of toxic heavy metals in the sediments of Mahim Creek near Mumbai. The annual average concentration of heavy metals like Pb, Cd, Cr, Zn, Cu, Ni and Hg was found to be 9.88, 2.33, 1.41, 33.31, 22.07, 32.21 and 32.06 ppm respectively. It is feared that this heavy metals accumulated in the creek sediments might affect the benthic macro invertebrates whose metabolic activities contribute to aquatic productivity. The results of present study indicates that the existing situation if mishandled can cause toxic effect on sediment dwelling organisms and fish, resulting in decrease survival, reduced growth, or impaired reproduction and lowered species diversity.

Ulhas River which is one of the most polluted rivers of Mumbai receives heavy pollution load from the nearby Dombivali industrial belt. Previous studies reported along the Dombivali industrial belt has indicated that the pollution level is so much alarming that it has created threat to nearby residential areas and also to the Ulhas River flowing in the outskirts of the Dombivali City. It is feared that the toxic chemicals present in the industrial waste might affect the sediment ecosystem of the river. Hence this has provoked us to carry the systematic and detailed study of physico chemical properties of the sediment samples collected along the Ulhas River. The study was done during the year 2012 and 2013, at the sites where the industrial discharge from Dombivli industrial belt Phase I and Phase II joins the Ulhas River. The study was performed to understand the physico chemical properties such as pH, alkalinity, chloride and phosphates. Results of the study reveal that there is an urgent requirement for systematic and regular monitoring of pollution level along the Ulhas River which will further help in improving the industrial waste treatment procedure adopted, along the Dombivli industrial belt. It is expected that such scientific studies will be useful to determine the extent of pollution control measures required in order to avoid long term irreparable damage to the Ulhas River ecosystem.

The present paper deals with the thermodynamic of uni-univalent and uni-bivalent ion exchange reactions using nuclear grade anion exchange resin Indion-223. It was observed that with rise in temperature the equilibrium constants K values for H+/K+ uni-univalet ion exchange reaction increases from 0.01710 to 0.02374. Similarly for H+/Ca2+ uni-bivalet ion exchange reaction the equilibrium constants K values increases from 0.000397 to 0.000639. The increase in K values with rise in temperature for both the reactions indicates its endothermic nature having the enthalpy change values of 22.72 and 38.92 kJ/ mol respectively. The technique used here can be extended further to standardise the process parameters in order to bring about the efficient separation of the desired ionic species from the solution.

The paper deals with predicting the iodide ion selectivity of nuclear and non-nuclear grade anion exchange resins. The ionic selectivity prediction was made on the basis of thermodynamic data of Clˉ/I ˉ ion exchange reaction. It was observed that with rise in temperature from 30.0 °C to 45.0 °C, the equilibrium constant (K) values were observed to decreases from 59.77x10-2 to 23.77x10-2 for Auchlite ARA-9366 resins and from 9.01x10-2 to 4.05x10-2 for Auchlite A-378 resins. The decrease in K values with rise in temperature, indicate exothermic ion exchange reactions having enthalpy values of -47.87 and -39.51 kJ/mol respectively. The high K and low enthalpy values obtained for Auchlite ARA-9366 resins indicate their greater selectivity for the iodide ions in the solution as compared to Auchlite A-378 resins, when both the resins are present in chloride form.

The present paper deals with the application of thermodynamic concept in understanding the preferential selectivity of nuclear grade anion exchange resin Indion-223 in H+ form towards Na+ and K+ ions in the solution. In the study it was observed that the equilibrium constants K values for H+/Na+ and H+/K+ uni-univalet ion exchange reactions increases from 0.01389 to 0.01855 and from 0.01710 to 0.02374 respectively as the temperature increases from 35.0 °C to 45.0 °C. The increase in K values with rise in temperature suggests endothermic ion exchange reactions having the enthalpy change values of 25.55 and 22.72 kJ/ mol respectively. Based on difference in K values and enthalpy values for the two uni-univalent ion exchange reactions, the preferential selectivity of the resin for the univalent ions in the solution was predicted. From the results of present study, it appears that the experimental technique used here can be applied further to understand the ionic selectivity of different industrial grade ion exchange resins. It is expected that such studies will provide valuable information in order to decide about the selection of those resins for efficient separation of various ionic species present in the industrial waste water effluents.

In the present paper attempts are made to understand the selectivity of nuclear grade cation exchange resin Indion-223 in H+ form towards Ca2+ and Mg2+ bivalent ions in the solution based on thermodynamic concept. It was observed that with rise in temperature the equilibrium constant K values for H+/Ca2+ uni-bivalet ion exchange reactions increases from 0.000397 to 0.000639. Similarly for H+/Mg2+ uni-bivalet ion exchange reactions the equilibrium constant K values increases from 0.000177 to 0.000333. The increase in equilibrium constant values with rise in temperature indicate endothermic ion exchange reactions having the enthalpy change values of 38.92 and 51.46 kJ/ mol respectively. The difference in K values and enthalpy values were used to predict the selectivity behaviour of the resin towards the Ca2+ and Mg2+ bivalent ions in the solution. The thermodynamic concept of the present study can be applied to understand the selectivity behaviour of different nuclear as well as non-nuclear grade resins towards wide range of ionic species present in the exchanging liquid medium.

The selectivity behaviour of nuclear grade anion exchange resin Auchlite ARA-9366 in chloride form towards iodide and bromide ions in the solution was studied. The trend in selectivity of the resin was predicted on the basis of thermodynamics of Clˉ/Iˉ and Clˉ/Brˉ uni-univalent ion exchange reactions. It was observed that the equilibrium constants K values for Clˉ/Iˉ ion exchange reaction were higher than that calculated for Clˉ/Brˉ exchange under identical experimental conditions. Also the enthalpy values for the two uni-univalent ion exchange reactions were calculated as -47.87 and -36.14 kJ/mol respectively. The high K and low enthalpy values obtained for Clˉ/Iˉ ion exchange reaction as compared to that obtained during Clˉ/Brˉ exchange supports higher selectivity of the resin towards iodide ions as compared to that towards bromide ions, when both the ions are present in the same solution.

The thermodynamic approach was applied to predict the trend selectivity of industrial grade anion exchange resin Auchlite A-378 in chloride form towards iodide and bromide ions in the solution. The study was conducted by performing the Clˉ/Iˉ and Clˉ/Brˉ uni-univalent ion exchange reactions under gradually increasing temperature conditions. The thermodynamic equilibrium constants K values were used to calculate the enthalpies of the two uni-univalent ion exchange reactions. It was observed that the K values for Clˉ/Iˉ ion exchange reaction were higher than Clˉ/Brˉ exchange reaction under identical experimental conditions. Also the enthalpy values for the two uni-univalent ion exchange reactions were calculated as -39.51 and -18.38 kJ/mol respectively. The high K and low enthalpy values obtained for Clˉ/Iˉ ion exchange reaction is responsible for higher selectivity of the resin towards iodide ions as compared to that towards bromide ions, when both the ions are present in the same solution.

In the present paper the uni-univalent and uni-bivalent ion exchange reactions were investigated using nuclear grade anion exchange resin Indion-223 in H+ form. For both H+/K+ uni-univalet ion exchange reactions and H+/Mg2+ uni-bivalet ion exchange reactions, the equilibrium constant K values increases from 0.01710 to 0.02374 and from 0.000177 to 0.000333 respectively as the reaction temperature rises from 35.0 °C to 45.0 °C. The increase in K values with temperature suggest endothermic ion exchange reactions having the enthalpy change values of 22.72 and 51.46 kJ/ mol respectively. The results of such studies will help in selection of suitable ion exchange resins in order to bring about efficient separation of different ionic species present in the waste water effluents released from nuclear as well as chemical process industries.

EN
The present study was performed for the period of one year from June 2012 to May 2013 in order to understand the level of toxic heavy metals in the water of Mahim Creek near Mumbai. It was observed that the annual average concentration of heavy metals like Pb, Cd, Cr, Fe, Zn, Cu and Ni and Hg was found to be 0.68, 0.28, 0.15, 0.04, 2.93, 0.64, 1.29 and 0.31 ppm respectively. The average concentrations of Hg and Pb were found to be above the maximum permissible limit of 0.01 ppm and 0.1 ppm respectively set for inland surface water by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) of India. The results suggest that there is a need to have such regular scientific monitoring for longer time period in order to understand the variation in level of these toxic heavy metals discharged in to the creek water. It is feared that the existing problem if ignored may increase the pollution problem of the creek due to the toxic heavy metals resulting in threat to the biological life of an aquatic ecosystem. From the results of the present investigation it seems that the time has come to move towards ecosystem specific discharge standards to maintain the health and productivity of natural resources on which the majority of human population is dependent.

In the present investigation, attempts were made to understand the difference in bromide ion selectivity of the two closely related anion exchange resins Auchlite ARA-9366 and Auchlite A-378 in chloride form. The selectivity difference was predicted based on the thermodynamic equilibrium constants and enthalpy values of Clˉ/Brˉ ion exchange reactions performed by using the two resins. During Clˉ/Brˉ exchange reactions, with rise in temperature from 30.0 °C to 45.0 °C, the equilibrium constant (K) values were observed to decreases from 8.15x10-2 to 6.06x10-2 for Auchlite ARA-9366 resins and from 2.16x10-2 to 1.10x10-2 for Auchlite A-378 resins. The decrease in K values with rise in temperature, indicate exothermic ion exchange reactions having enthalpy values of -36.14 and -18.38 kJ/mol respectively. The high K and low enthalpy values obtained for Auchlite ARA-9366 resins indicate their greater selectivity for the bromide ions in the solution as compared to Auchlite A-378 resins.

In the present investigation the uni-univalent and uni-bivalent ion exchange reactions were studied using nuclear grade anion exchange resin Indion-223 in H+ form. It was observed that for H+/Na+ uni-univalet ion exchange reaction, with rise in temperature the equilibrium constants K values increases from 0.01389 to 0.01855. Similarly increase in K values was observed from 0.000177 to 0.000333 for H+/Mg2+ uni-bivalet ion exchange reaction. The increase in equilibrium constant values with rise in temperature indicate endothermic ion exchange reactions having the enthalpy change values of 25.55 and 51.46 kJ/ mol respectively. It is expected that the present study will provide valuable information in order to decide about the selection of those resins for efficient separation of various ionic species present in the industrial waste water effluents.
