Gas-liquid chromatographic analyses
1983
Abstract The gas chromatography of mixtures of n -alkyl acetates (CH 3 COOR, R = C 1 —C 8 ) and methyl esters of aliphatic n -carboxylic acids (R′COOCH 3 , R′ = C 1 —C 8 ) and certain of their monochlorinated derivatives has been studied on Carbowax 20M and SE-30 glass capillary columns under the same operating conditions. The separation of the isomeric monochlorinated esters was complete on Carbowax 20M, whereas on SE-30 the peaks of 6- and 7-chlorooctyl acetates and methyl (ω − 1)- and (ω − 2)-chlorooctanoates and -nonanoates partly overlapped. The complete separation of the mixtures could not be achieved, however, on Carbowax 20M, in spite of the use of various operating conditions. The …
Adsorption of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate on a C18column under micellar and high submicellar conditions in reversed-phase liquid ch…
2015
Micellar liquid chromatography makes use of aqueous solutions or aqueous-organic solutions containing a surfactant, at a concentration above its critical micelle concentration. In the mobile phase, the surfactant monomers aggregate to form micelles, whereas on the surface of the nonpolar alkyl-bonded stationary phases they are significantly adsorbed. If the mobile phase contains a high concentration of organic solvent, micelles break down, and the amount of surfactant adsorbed on the stationary phase is reduced, giving rise to another chromatographic mode named high submicellar liquid chromatography. The presence of a thinner coating of surfactant enhances the selectivity and peak shape, es…
Membranes Directly Prepared from Solutions of Unsubstituted Cellulose
2005
Summary: Starting from 5 wt.-% solutions of a prehydrolysis kraft pulp ( = 135 kg · mol−1) in the mixed solvent (dimethylacetamide + 7 wt.-% LiCl) we have prepared cellulose membranes on different supports according to the phase inversion process using above all acetone (AC) and 2-propanol as precipitants. In this context we have studied the phase behavior of the quasiternary system (DMAc+LiCl)/AC/cellulose. The obtained membranes are mechanically stable and in their mechanical and separation properties on the whole comparable to membranes consisting of regenerated cellulose. With respect to gas separation the ideal selectivity of CO2 in combination with N2 and O2 turns out to be opposite f…
Arsenic(III) Removal at Low Concentrations by Biosorption usingPhanerochaete chrysosporiumPellets
2013
As(III) removal from dilute aqueous solutions by biosorption onto pellets of the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was investigated. The As(III) uptake capacity was evaluated at low initial concentrations (0.2–1 mg/L) which revealed that the P. chrysosporium pellets were only slightly less efficient than the well studied adsorbent granular ferric hydroxide. Moreover, its performance was much more superior compared to anaerobic granular sludge, another cheaply available bacterial biosorbent. In the studied pH (5–9) and biomass concentration (0.25–1.5 g/L wet weight basis) ranges, no large differences in As(III) removal efficiency were observed. The influence of different ions, com…
Fixed‐Bed Removal of Free and Complexed Ni from Synthetic and Industrial Aqueous Solutions
2008
Abstract This paper evaluates the application of several biosorbents for Ni removal from aqueous solutions in the absence and in the presence of EDTA. Fixed bed experiments were performed (Ni influent concentration, 2 mg dm−3; EDTA doses, 0, 5, and 10 mg dm−3; pH=7) to study the process feasibility as refining after conventional physicochemical treatment. In absence of EDTA, uptake capacity followed the order peat > Posidonia oceanica > chitosan > chitin ≫ Scharlau AC. Maximum uptakes of 8.95 mg g−1 and 5.10 mg g−1 were found for peat and Posidonia oceanica, respectively. In the presence of EDTA, removal capacity decreased for all biosorbents; Ni was detected in the effluent from the beginn…
Nota di archeologia postclassica. A proposito della via dei sepolcri nella necropoli paleocristiana di Agrigento tra preesistenze e trasformazioni
2013
Trenta anni di scavi e ricerche nell'area della necropoli paleocristiana di Agrigento hanno evidenziato la presenza di una arteria che servì il cimitero dal IV all'VIII secolo. La strada riutilizzava il tracciato di un acquedotto di età greca che alimentava una serie di cisterne a loro volta trasformate in spazi funerari privati o comunitari. Dopo l'abbandono e la distruzione e del cimitero, nell' XI secolo, nell'area fu impiantata un'officina ceramica per la produzione di vasellame di uso comune.
La question du sacrifice animal dans les rites funéraires en Gaule belgique
1998
L'etude des necopoles du l'Age du Fer du nord de la Gaule a revele la pratique courante de l'implication de l'animal dans les rites funeraires humains. Cet usage a deja ete analyse dans plusieurs syntheses, mais l'auteur s'interroge en particulier, dans cet article, sur les modalites de choix et d'acquisition des quartiers de viande dedies au rite et donc des modalites du sacrifice animal et propose d'etudier les indices receuillis a ce sujet dans des necropoles lateniennes du nord de la France, recemment fouillees
What Flow Conditions are Conducive to Banner Cloud Formation?
2016
Abstract Banner clouds are clouds that are attached to the leeward slope of a steep mountain. Their formation is essentially due to strong Lagrangian uplift of air in the lee of the mountain. However, little is known about the flow regime in which banner clouds can be expected to occur. The present study addresses this question through numerical simulations of flow past idealized orography. Systematic sets of simulations are carried out exploring the parameter space spanned by two dimensionless numbers, which represent the aspect ratio of the mountain and the stratification of the flow. The simulations include both two-dimensional flow past two-dimensional orography and three-dimensional fl…
Unconventional phases of attractive Fermi gases in synthetic Hall ribbons
2017
An innovative way to produce quantum Hall ribbons in a cold atomic system is to use M hyperfine states of atoms in a one-dimensional optical lattice to mimic an additional "synthetic dimension." A notable aspect here is that the SU(M) symmetric interaction between atoms manifests as "infinite ranged" along the synthetic dimension. We study the many-body physics of fermions with SU(M) symmetric attractive interactions in this system using a combination of analytical field theoretic and numerical density-matrix renormalization-group methods. We uncover the rich ground-state phase diagram of the system, including unconventional phases such as squished baryon fluids, shedding light on many-body…
Alternative Diagonality Criteria for SOBI
2015
Blind source separation (BSS) is a multivariate data analysis method, whose roots are in the signal processing community. BSS is applied in diverse fields, including, for example, brain imaging and economic time series analysis. In the BSS model there are interesting latent uncorrelated variables, and the aim is to estimate the latent variables from multiple linear combinations of them. In this article we assume that these variables are weakly stationary time series, and we consider estimation methods which are based on approximate joint diagonalization of autocovariance matrices. In the popular SOBI estimator, a set of matrices is most diagonal when the sum of squares of their diagonal ele…
