Life cycle performance assessment of small solar thermal cooling systems and conventional plants assisted with photovoltaics
2014
Starting from the results of a Life Cycle Assessment of small solar assisted heat driven chillers, the application of such methodology has been extended to systems with a conventional compression chiller assisted by a photovoltaic plant (PV). This study aims to provide a comprehensive compared investigation of these two families of solar assisted cooling systems (with solar thermal or PV). Results indicate that, in many cases, the systems with the PV grid connected plant performed best. In addition, two more configurations were investigated to further define the PV assisted systems, which minimise their interaction with the grid through the use of electricity storages. These systems performed…
Synthesis and electrochemical study of a new doubly-metallated compound with the ferrocene-labelled phosphine PPh2(C5H4)Fe(C5H5)
1993
Abstract Direct reaction of the metalled compound Rh 2 (μ 2 -O 2 CCH 3 ) 3 [μ 2 -(C 6 H 4 ) PPh 2 ]·(H 2 O) 2 with PPh 2 Fc [Fc = (C 5 H 4 )Fe(C 5 H 5 )] in chloroform solution yields the corresponding mono-adduct Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 ) 3 [(C 6 H 4 )PPh 2 ]·(PPh 2 Fc) ( 1 ), which has been characterized by 31 P NMR spectroscopy. Photochemical irradiation of 1 in chloroform gives the compound Rh 2 (μ-O 2 CCH 3 ) 2 (η 2 -O 2 CCH 3 )[μ 2 -(C 6 H 4 )PPh 2 ][PPh 2 Fc]·(H 2 O) ( 2 ) in practically quantitative yield. Compound 2 , by thermal treatment in chloroform solution, yields cleanly the doubly-metallated compound Rh 2 (μ 2 -O 2 CCH 3 ) 2 [μ 2 -(C 6 H 4 )PPhFc][μ 2 -(C 6 H 4 )PPh 2 ]·(H 2 O) 2 ( …

Channel flow at an immobilised liquid|liquid interface
2000
A novel rectangular channel flow electrochemical cell for the study of liquid | liquid interfaces is presented. The organic phase is immobilised by the use of a gelling agent, while the aqueous phase flows past the interface. This creates an asymmetric setup that allows us to establish diagnostic criteria to determine, for example, the direction of the ion transfer. The effects of varying flow rate and sweep rate have been considered both theoretically and experimentally. By comparison with two-dimensional simulations, it is demonstrated that a simple one-dimensional theory can be used to describe the cyclic voltammetry response of the channel flow cell.
Ion-exchange voltammetry at a surfactant-doped electrode: model of mass transfer kinetics to an anionic surface-charged electrode and its application…
2000
cited By 10; International audience; A theoretical model of mass transfer kinetics was developed for investigating the accumulation of cationic compounds at an anionic surfactant-doped screen-printed electrode. It was extended to an enzyme-generated cationic product for the indirect determination of alkaline phosphatase (AP). The model takes into account the analyte depletion, the kinetics of the ion-exchange reaction-diffusion and the kinetics of the enzymatic reaction. The relationship between the ion-exchange voltammetric anodic peak current and the enzyme incubation/accumulation time for a given concentration of AP was established and the validity of the theoretical model was verified e…
Electrochemistry-based chemotaxonomy in plants using the voltammetry of microparticles methodology
2015
A methodology for characterizing vegetal taxonomic groups using microextraction-assisted voltammetry of microparticles is described. It is based on recording the voltammetric response of microparticulate films of polyphenolic compounds of leaf extracts using different organic solvents. As a result, characteristic voltammetric profiles, tentatively defining an electrochemolomic response, are obtained. Bivariant and multivariant chemometric evaluation of the voltammetric responses of such films allows characterizing vegetal families. Analysis of voltammetric responses for a set of species of the Rosales order suggests that electrochemical data can be correlated with phylogenetic trees.
Reduction of ferricytochrome c catalyzed by optically active chromium(III) complexes
2009
The reduction rates of horse heart ferricytochrome c by amalgamated zinc or by electrolysis at fixed potential on a mercury pool as the cathode have been measured in a buffered solution at pH 7.5 by absorption spectrophotometry. In both cases, the reaction was strongly accelerated by the presence of the optically active complexes Lambda-[Cr(III)((S,S)-promp)H(2)O](+) (H(2)promp = N,N'-[(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(methylene)]-bis[(S)-proline]), Delta-[Cr(III)((R,R)-alamp)H(2)O](+) (H(2)alamp = N,N'-[(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(methylene)]-bis[(R)-alanine]) and Lambda-[Cr(III)((S,S)-alamp)(H(2)O)(2)](+). These were shown to undergo reversible one-electron reduction to the corresponding labile chromium(…
Spectroscopic and electrochemical study of interactions between DNA and different salts of 1,4-dihydropyridine AV-153
2020
1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-DHP) possess important biochemical and pharmacological properties, including antimutagenic and DNA-binding activity. The latter activity was first described for water-soluble 1,4-DHP with carboxylic group in position 4, the sodium salt of the 1,4-DHP derivative AV-153 among others. Some data show the modification of physicochemical properties and biological activities of organic compounds by metal ions that form the salts. We demonstrated the different affinity to DNA and DNA-protecting capacity of AV-153 salts, depending on the salt-forming ion (Na, K, Li, Rb, Ca, Mg). This study aimed to use different approaches to collate data on the DNA-binding mode of AV-153-N…
Virsniecības loma mūsdienu demokrātijā
2016
Bakalaura darba nosaukums: Virsniecības loma mūsdienu demokrātijā Bakalaura darbā tiek apskatīta civili militāro attiecību piemērošanas iespējas konfliktsituācijas apstākļos. Esošais teorētiskais rāmis analizē virsniecības lomu miera apstākļos, taču neapskata eventuālu situāciju, kurā civilā pārvalde nav spējīga rīkoties atbilstoši drošības situācijai. Darba mērķis ir radīt normatīvo bāzi civili militārās teorijas paplašināšanai, turpinot normatīvo diskusiju, kas aizsākās 20. gs deviņdesmitajos gados ASV. Izmantojot esošo civili militāro attiecību praksi ir radīti kritēriji, kurus piemērojot, nedrošības situācijā ir iespējams saglabāt civilās kontroles pamatprincipus, vienlaikus efektīvi iz…
Thalamic Network Oscillations Synchronize Ontogenetic Columns in the Newborn Rat Barrel Cortex
2013
Neocortical areas are organized in columns, which form the basic structural and functional modules of intracortical information processing. Using voltage-sensitive dye imaging and simultaneous multi-channel extracellular recordings in the barrel cortex of newborn rats in vivo, we found that spontaneously occurring and whisker stimulation-induced gamma bursts followed by longer lasting spindle bursts were topographically organized in functional cortical columns already at the day of birth. Gamma bursts synchronized a cortical network of 300-400 µm in diameter and were coherent with gamma activity recorded simultaneously in the thalamic ventral posterior medial (VPM) nucleus. Cortical gamma b…
