Tracking the Fate of Metals in Mining Waste Rock Using M etal Stable Isotopes
The characterization of metal release and attenuation in mining waste rock drainage has traditionally relied upon an array of mineralogical and geochemical techniques. Recent advances in analytical instrumentation now allow robust measurements of minute variations in the isotopic composition of metals in environmental samples, which have become a powerful new tracer of their fate. Here we provi...
متن کاملMedical Waste
The most commonly used technology for dealing with medical waste, till recently was an incinerator. Incinerator, when introduced was supposed to be a wonder technology. A technology that would get rid of loads of waste by burning it and would leave behind some ash, that could be dumped. However, instead of solving the problem of waste, it aggravated it. It only changed the biological problem in...

In the past few years, public concern over the disposal of medical waste has markedly increased. The rising concerns over medical waste disposal were stimulated by reports of such waste washing up on the beaches along the east coast from Maine to Florida, the west coast, the Great Lakes, and the Gulf coast. This resulted in a number of beach closings and a loss in revenues to the tourist indust...
متن کامل[CERN-MEDICIS (Medical Isotopes Collected from ISOLDE): a new facility].
CERN-MEDICIS is a facility dedicated to research and development in life science and medical applications. The research platform was inaugurated in October 2014 and will produce an increasing range of innovative isotopes using the proton beam of ISOLDE for fundamental studies in cancer research, for new imaging and therapy protocols in cell and animal models and for preclinical trials, possibly...
متن کاملNuclear waste disposal.
-Experiments are described in which dose-response data have been obtained for EMT6 mouse tumour cells growing in vivo and exposed to various cytotoxic agents. A comparison has been made of the response of solid tumours in the flank and of rapidly growing lung nodules. The results are discussed with regard to their cell kinetic implications and compared with our results for the chemosensitivity ...
