While the extent of environmental contamination by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) has mobilized considerable efforts around globe in recent years, publicly available data on PFAS Europe were very limited. In an unprecedented experiment "expert-reviewed journalism" involving 29 journalists seven scientific advisers, a cross-border collaborative project, "Forever Pollution Project" (FPP), drew both methods investigative journalism techniques such as open-source intelligence (OSINT)...
Hydrostatic pressure may affect the intracellular pH of microorganisms by (i) enhancing dissociation weak organic acids and (ii) increasing permeability cytoplasmic membrane inactivation enzymes required for homeostasis. The internal pHs Lactococcus lactis Lactobacillus plantarum during after treatment at 200 300 MPa values ranging from 4.0 to 6.5 were determined. Pressure up 20 min did not reduce viability either strain 6.5. reduced viable cell counts 5 log 120 min, respectively. was faster...
Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are manmade chemicals, containing the covalent C-F bond, which is among strongest chemical bonds known to organic chemistry. Abundant use of these chemicals contaminates air, water, and soil around world. Despite recent initiatives legal regulations set reduce their omnipresence, conventional water purification processes either inefficient or very expensive, especially for low PFC contamination levels. This research focused on non-thermal atmospheric plasma...
Abstract The dissociation of CO 2 gas hydrates (GH) with amino acid kinetic promoters and without was studied at a high temperature 90 °C for period 20 min to understand the percentage select best promoter that aids entrapment along stability temperature. possibility using four hydrophobic food grade acids, namely cysteine, valine, leucine, methionine, one surfactant, lecithin, as GH has been studied. acids were added 0.5 g (wt%), lecithin 5 production. Furthermore, leucine methionine gave...
For the investigation of physical processes human phonation, inhomogeneous synthetic vocal folds were developed to represent full fluid-structure-acoustic coupling. They consisted polyurethane rubber with a stiffness in range and mounted channel, shaped like tract supraglottal region. This test facility permitted extensive observations flow-induced fold vibrations, periodic flow field, acoustic signals far field channel. Detailed measurements performed applying particle-image velocimetry,...
Abstract Si-SiC open cell foams with porosity >87% and high pore sizes (4-7 mm) are commonly employed as active zone in porous burners for heat radiation applications. In a burner, the solid body let recirculate from hot combustion products to incoming reactants. The result is that flame confined within foam, meaning thermomechanical loadings on its constituent material. A set of commercial same production batch was aged flat burners. Thermal cycles ramp-up, dwell cooling, well burner set-up...
This paper presents an enhancement to the free surface lattice Boltzmann method (FSLBM) for simulation of bubbly flows including rupture and breakup bubbles. The FSLBM uses a volume fluid approach reduce problem liquid-gas two-phase flow single-phase simulation. In compression effects leading increase or decrease pressure in suspended bubbles cannot be neglected. Therefore, is augmented by bubble model that supplies missing information tracking topological changes flow. new presented here...
In this work, the effects of a functionalization method involving different conditions and milling processes on dispersion thermal electrical conductivity multiwalled carbon nanotubes were studied. The surfaces MWCNTs modified using mixture sulfuric nitric acid as an treatment potassium persulfate sodium hydroxide alkaline to achieve more hydrophilic MWCNTs. morphological structural investigations carried out transmission electron microscopy Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy....
