Adsorption of N-2 at 77 K and scanning electron microscopy have been used to measure the changes in the support morphology, at nano- and microscale level, along the processes involved in the preparation of a supported Pd catalyst: Pd deposition, doping, an ...
For Fe contained in aeolian dust to act as a micronutrient for oceanic phytoplankton, some fraction of it must first be transformed (mobilized) into a form soluble in ocean water. Fe solubilization in deliquesced mineral dust aerosols emanating from East A ...
The sulfate attack is known to influence the durability of concrete. In general, significant damage due to sulfate interaction results in the structural breakdown of the concrete structure. However, the precipitation of thaumasite due to sulfate concentrat ...
Strontium lanthanum manganite (LSM) and lanthanum ferrite (LSF) perovskite cathode and oxygen membrane materials were synthesized using different techniques: spray pyrolysis, a modified citrate route, oxalate and carbonate co-precipitations. The use of Ca, ...
Permeable reactive barriers employing iron as a reactive surface have received extensive attention. A remaining issue, however, relates to their longevity. As an integral part of a long-term column study conducted to examine the influence of inorganic coso ...
New experiments conducted at pH 9 and 298 K clearly indicate that addition of bicarbonate ions in aqueous solutions increases the solubility of both cubic and monoclinic zirconia by several orders of magnitude. In pure water the solubility of zirconia prov ...
A key problem in environmental science and in engineering geology is the often incomplete understanding of the origin of dissolved components in groundwater. The dissolved contents of trace elements in groundwater are of special importance for groundwater ...
The factors controlling leachate composition of cement stabilized air pollution control (APC) residues (41% APC residues, 22% cement, 3% Na2CO3, and 32% water, w/w) have been investigated both in the laboratory ansi in a pilot landfill. Batch leaching and ...
Strontium lanthanum manganite (LSM) and lanthanum ferrite (LSF) perovskite cathode and oxygen membrane materials were synthesized using different techniques: spray pyrolysis, a modified citrate route, oxalate and carbonate co-precipitations. The use of Ca, ...
Compressibility of MgCO3 is studied with infrared absorbance in the 100-1800 cm(-1) wave number range. Large values of the Gruneisen parameters for the translational modes, related to the optically active mode in the B1 structure, indicate that the pressur ...
