A GEOSITE TO BE SAVED: THE TYRRHENIAN FOSSIL DEPOSIT ON THE ISLAND OF USTICA
2014
During the 1960s, fossil beds characterized by a tropical-sea malacofauna were discovered by G. Ruggieri and G. Buccheri in the Island of Ustica, on the southern slope of Falconiera hill, 32 m asl. Thanks to the presence of Strombus bubonius and other Senegalese guests, the authors estimated that the molluscan fauna had lived around 125,000 years ago, during the Tyrrhenian stage. Recently on the initiative of the “Centro Studi e Documentazione Isola di Ustica”, a research has been initiated to verify the persistence of sand-layers mixed up with Tyrrhenian fossils, even though, in the last 50 years, that area has undergone great changes, because of earthworks which have sealed the deposit. T…
Fjernare og stadig nærmare : nærvær og fråvær i Jon Fosses lyrikk

Språk og tilgivelse : en lesning av Jon Fosses roman Det er Ales
2007
Masteroppgave i Nordisk språk og litteratur 2007 - Høgskolen i Agder, Kristiansand Problemstilling: Jeg ville studere Fosses roman Det er Ales i lys av Julia Kristevas psykoanalytiske litteraturteori, spesielt med henblikk på den estetiske teorien. Prosjektet gikk ut på å finne representasjoner av prosodi, polyvalens, og tilgivelsens psykiske økonomi i romanen. Samtidig ville jeg forsøke å finne ut hvordan melankoliteori generelt er representert i teksten. Valg av teori: Jeg valgte å ta utgangspunkt i melankoliteori og Kristevas psykoanalytiske litteraturteori. hennes teori om de tre sublimerende grepene i kunsten; prosodi, polyvalens og tilgivelsens psykiske økonomi, har dannet utgangspunk…
Modern Electrochemical Aspects for the Synthesis of Value‐Added Organic Products
2017
The use of electricity instead of stoichiometric amounts of oxidizers or reducing agents in synthesis is very appealing for economic and ecological reasons, and represents a major driving force for research efforts in this area. To use electron transfer at the electrode for a successful transformation in organic synthesis, the intermediate radical (cation/anion) has to be stabilized. Its combination with other approaches in organic chemistry or concepts of contemporary synthesis allows the establishment of powerful synthetic methods. The aim in the 21st Century will be to use as little fossil carbon as possible and, for this reason, the use of renewable sources is becoming increasingly impo…
Trémery, Moselle, ZAC de la Fontaine des Saints, site 19 : rapport de fouille
2013
Le Néolithique ancien est marqué par la présence de fosses allongées. La céramique issue de leur remplissage montre des décors réalisés selon la technique du pointillé-sillonné ainsi que l'utilisation du peigne à deux dents et la forte proportion du motif en chevron simple ou double, permettant d'attribuer l'ensemble du mobilier céramique des fosses à l'horizon IIc du Rubané de la chronologie du Rhin moyen ou de la phase 5 régionale. Si du point de vue de la céramique, les fosses appartiennent au même horizon chronologique, en revanche il n'est pas établi qu'elles aient été associées au même habitat qui n'a d'ailleurs pas été conservé. Au regard du nombre de vestiges, on peut penser que le …
Continuous SO2 flux measurements for Vulcano Island, Italy
2012
<p>The La Fossa cone of Vulcano Island (Aeolian Archipelago, Italy) is a closed conduit volcano. Today, Vulcano Island is characterized by sulfataric activity, with a large fumarolic field that is mainly located in the summit area. A scanning differential optical absorption spectroscopy instrument designed by the Optical Sensing Group of Chalmers University of Technology in Göteborg, Sweden, was installed in the framework of the European project "Network for Observation of Volcanic and Atmospheric Change", in March 2008. This study presents the first dataset of SO<sub>2</sub> plume fluxes recorded for a closed volcanic system. Between 2008 and 2010, the SO<sub>2</…
Emerging techniques in bioethanol production: from distillation to waste valorization
2019
Ethanol production from biomass, especially waste biomass, and the use of such ethanol as fuel can reduce fossil fuel consumption and ameliorate the hidden costs of burning fossil fuels such as its environmental impact. However, bioethanol production suffers from several limitations such as being energy-intensive and generating a sizeable amount of waste. This review briefly describes the aspects related to bioethanol production and focuses on both theoretical and practical approaches for process improvements. Several green emerging distillation techniques, such as ohmic-assisted hydrodistillation, membrane-assisted distillation, and heat integrated techniques, are shown to be energy-saving…
Torrefied versus conventional pellet production – A comparative study on energy and emission balance based on pilot-plant data and EU sustainability …
2015
Abstract Torrefaction is an emerging technology which enables greater co-firing rates of biomass with coal. To date however there has been a lack of real production data from pilot-scale torrefaction plants. Without such data any environmental benefits of torrefied pellet production are difficult to quantify. In this study data on consumable inputs from a semi-industrial torrefaction plant and the physical properties of produced pellets are used to analyse energy input and air emissions of torrefied pellet production and product transport. EU sustainability criteria are used to compare CO2-equivalent emissions from torrefied and conventional pellet production starting from harvesting of log…
HIGH-RESOLUTION PALAEONVIRONMENTAL RECONSTRUCTION OF ODP HOLE 963D (SICILY CHANNEL) DURING THE LAST DEGLACIATION BASED ON CALCAREOUS NANNOFOSSILS
2004
Abstract A palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Hole 963D (Sicily Channel) has been obtained on the basis of quantitative abundance fluctuations in the calcareous nannofossil assemblages. The studied hole is characterized by a very high sedimentary resolution and covers the last ca. 20 kyr. A new palaeoclimatic curve, based on the Gephyrocapsa muellerae/Upper Photic Zone (UPZ) group ratio, permitted the detection of the rapid climatic fluctuations that characterized the last deglaciation. Cold water masses occupied the Sicily Channel during the glacial period and the Younger Dryas, whereas they were generally warm during the Bolling–Allerod and the Holocene. An…
