Evaluation of materials for iodine and technetium immobilization through sorption and redox-driven processes

Radioactive iodine-129 (I-129) and technetium-99 (Tc-9(9)) pose a risk to groundwater due to their long half-lives, toxicity, and high environmental mobility. Based on literature reviewed in Moore et al. (2019) and Pearce et aL (2019), natural and engineer ...

Synergism between non-thermal plasma and photocatalysis: Implicationsin the post discharge of ozone at a pilot scale in a catalytic fixed-bed reactor

Sami Rtimi

This study focuses on Butyraldehyde (C4H8O) degradation using catalytic ozonation oriented to the optimization of non-thermal plasma/photocatalytic coupled processes. After the first oxidation by non-thermal plasma coupled photocatalytic processes, a secon ...

Increasing the stability of nanofluids with cavitating flows in micro orifices

Yusuf Leblebici, Morteza Ghorbani

One of the most critical challenges for nanofluids in practical applications is related to their stability and reusability since a gradual agglomeration of nanoparticles in nanofluids occurs with time and is accelerated by heating. In this study, we propos ...

Functional imaging studies of cognition using Tc-99m-HMPAO SPECT: empirical validation using the n-back working memory paradigm

Pierre Magistretti

Purpose Functional activation protocols are widely applied for the study of brain-cognition relations. Only few take advantage of the intrinsic characteristics of SPECT, particularly those allowing cognitive assessment outside of the camera, in settings cl ...
