Abstract The genus Enenterum Linton, 1910 comprises species which parasitize herbivorous kyphosid fish. In the present study, a new species is described based on fresh specimens collected from Kyphosus incisor from Rio de Janeiro. The new species is characterized by having the oral sucker infundibuliform with 10 lobes, prepharynx two times longer ...

Fe containing silica gel catalysts for catalytic wet peroxide oxidation processes [PDF]
The degradation of pollutants by catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) using the Fenton’s reagent is a well known process, the major drawback being the need to recover the iron catalyst at the end of treatment.
