Vancomycin resistance plasmids affect persistence of Enterococcus faecium in water

Vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE) cause 20,000 infections annually in the United States, most of which are nosocomial. Recent findings of VRE in sewage-contaminated surface waters demonstrate an alternate route of human exposure, and a possible settin ...

The utility of flow cytometry for potable reuse

Tamar Kohn, Krista Rule Wigginton, Brian Pecson

Protecting public health from pathogens is critical when treating wastewater to drinking water standards (i.e., planned water reuse). Viruses are a principal concern, yet real-time monitoring strategies do not currently measure virus removal through reuse ...

Global spatial analysis of toxic emissions to freshwater: operationalization for LCA

Anna Kounina Massé

PurposeThere is increasing interest in using fate and exposure models to spatially differentiate the impacts of chemical emissions. This work aims at exploring the operationalization in life cycle assessment (LCA) of spatially differentiated models for tox ...

Data-driven design of metal-organic frameworks for wet flue gas CO2 capture

Berend Smit, Susana Garcia Lopez, Kyriakos Stylianou, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Peter George Boyd, Andrzej Gladysiak, Christopher Patrick Ireland, Arunraj Chidambaram, Enrique Garcia Diez

Limiting the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere is one of the largest challenges of our generation(1). Because carbon capture and storage is one of the few viable technologies that can mitigate current CO2 emissions(2), much effort is focused on developing ...

Impact of sodium gluconate on white cement-slag systems with Na2SO4

Karen Scrivener, Berta Mota Gassó, Thomas Matschei

Sodium gluconate has been shown to compensate the impact of alkalis on the long term strength development of cement pastes. This work studies the impact of sodium gluconate combined with Na2SO4 on the microstructural development of white cement-slag system ...

Effect of fluid viscosity on fault reactivation and co‐seismic weakening

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Chiara Cornelio

High‐viscosity fluids are often used during hydraulic fracking operations in geo‐reservoirs. Here, we performed dedicated experiments to study the influence of fluid viscosity on fault reactivation and associated induced earthquakes. Experiments were condu ...

Contribution of 3D coupled hydrodynamic-ecological modeling to assess the representativeness of a sampling protocol for lake water quality assessment

Damien Bouffard, Frédéric Charles Soulignac, Robert Eduard Uittenbogaard

This study deals with the impact of spatio-temporal heterogeneities on the assessment of lake ecological status according to the European water framework directive (WFD). A method, based on three-dimensional coupled hydrodynamic and ecological modeling, is ...

Temperature dependence of water-water and ion-water correlations in bulk water and electrolyte solutions probed by femtosecond elastic second harmonic scattering

Sylvie Roke, Nathan Dupertuis, Yixing Chen, Halil Ibrahim Okur

The temperature dependence of the femtosecond elastic second harmonic scattering (fs-ESHS) response of bulk light and heavy water and their electrolyte solutions is presented. We observe clear temperature dependent changes in the hydrogen (H)-bond network ...
