Abstract

Petroleum is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons contain thousands of harmful effects that due to the relatively high volume of entering the aquatic environment, reducing pollution caused by it is very important. The aim of this study was to investigate the removal of toxic components of crude oil by nanoparticles of titanium dioxide under UVradiation. The study was conducted on hydrobiology aquatic propagation lab of Khatamolanbia University of Behbahan. 210 specimens of Cyprinus carpio (average weight = 54.4 ± 8.43, average total length= 15.4 ± 0.53) were purchased from a private aquaculture center and acclimation was done for two weeks in 300 liter tanks. Standard solution phase synthesis of crude oil and titanium dioxide nanoparticles by mixing one part Petroleum with 9 parts titanium dioxide nanoparticles were prepared. Then the fish were treatmented in group 7 (with three replications) consisting of 10 specimens randomly. In the days zero and 21 fish specimen per tank number of 3 was taken randomly and evaluate each fish separately with digital scales and bioassay was conducted with the board. Then anatomy the fish and entrails, which each weighed separately. The results showed that titanium dioxide nanoparticles both visceral for treatment and solution phase petroleum under ultraviolet radiation and titanium dioxide nanoparticles and the feed conversion ratio for oil treatment solution phase crude oil under darkness control group showed a significant increase (p<0.05). Based on the results of this study, it can be said that the process of photocatalytic titanium dioxide and Ultraviolet radiation lead to a reduction in the adverse effects of poorly soluble phase was crude oil.
