Unraveling the Uptake of Glyoxal on a Diversity of Natural Dusts and Surrogates: Linking Dust Composition to Glyoxal Uptake and Estimation of Atmospheric Lifetimes

The uptake of glyoxal (Gly) on 28 different samples with varying mineralogical origins, such as clays, mineral proxies, and natural dusts from the major arid regions of the Earth, was determined. Experiments were performed at ambient temperature inside a K ...

Effect of different ions on dissolution rates of silica and feldspars at high pH

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Mahsa Bagheri, Mahdieh Shakoorioskooie

The dissolution kinetics of silica-containing minerals in aggregates influences strongly the process of ASR in concrete. In this paper, the effect of different ions on the dissolution rates of SiO2 (amorphous and quartz) and feldspars at high pH values was ...

The Challenge of Grinding Ternary Blends Containing Calcined Clays and Limestone

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva, Juan Alberto Ribalta Quesada

The inclusion of high specific surface materials such as calcined clays in cementitious systems enhances the hydration of clinker products at very early ages, but it may also increase water demand; thus, the pursuit of a flowing concrete may demand an incr ...

Inorganic and Metal-Organic Heterogeneous Catalysts for Hydrogen Energy Applications

Fatma Pelin Uran

The main focus of this thesis is the exploration of inorganic and metal-organic heterogeneous catalysts for hydrogen (H2) energy applications. In particular, we investigated metal nanoparticles (NPs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for their employment ...

Aggregate dissolution in different pore solutions

Mahsa Bagheri

The occurrence of cracking due to alkali silica reaction (ASR) affects the service life of concrete structures. The dissolution of silica-containing minerals within aggregates causes the formation of ASR products, which fill macroscopic cracks and cause th ...

Role of Iron Sulfide Phases in the Stability of Noncrystalline Tetravalent Uranium in Sediments

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Luca Loreggian

Uranium (U) in situ bioremediation has been investigated as a cost-effective strategy to tackle U contamination in the subsurface. While uraninite was believed to be the only product of bioreduction, numerous studies have revealed that noncrystalline U(IV) ...

Effects of composition and pressure on electronic states of iron in bridgmanite

Arnaud Magrez, Philippe Gillet, Susannah McGregor Dorfman

Electronic states of iron in the lower mantle's dominant mineral, (Mg,Fe,Al)(Fe,Al,Si)O-3 bridgmanite, control physical properties of the mantle including density, elasticity, and electrical and thermal conductivity. However, the determination of electroni ...

Dissimilarities in polyphosphate accumulation between Shewanella loihica and the model bacterium Shewanella oneidensis

Julien Maillard

Polyphosphate plays an important role in the physiological adaptation of bacteria during growth and development, as well as in their response to nutritional and environmental stresses. Moreover, polyphosphate accumulation is of environmental relevance and ...

Dissolution-reprecipitation reaction of dolomite: investigation of self- and tracer-diffusion using SIMS mini-spot and NanoSIMS profiles

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Lukas Baumgartner

Recrystallization of minerals due to fluid infiltration modifies their original chemical and isotopic signature. Such processes are sought after as they give access to timescales of geologic processes, which are commonly quantified using diffusion chronome ...

Hydro-mechanical response of Opalinus Clay shale: dependency on composition and burial depth

Eleonora Crisci

Shales are sedimentary formation currently studied for their involvement in many geo-energy related applications, such as radioactive waste disposal, CO2 sequestration, oil and gas extraction. In Switzerland the Opalinus Clay shale has been selected has ho ...
