Stable isotopes of water have long been used to improve understanding of the hydrological cycle, catchment hydrology, and polar climate. Recently, there has been increasing interest in measurement and use of the less-abundant (17)O isotope in addition to (2)H and (18)O. Off-axis integrated cavity output spectroscopy (OA-ICOS) is demonstrated for accurate and precise measurements δ(18)O, δ(17)O,...

Ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) is used to directly simulate the injection and relaxation of excess electrons into supercritical helium fluid and ambient liquid water. A method for modulating the initial energy of the excess electron in the RPMD model is presented and used to study both low-energy (cold) and high-energy (hot) electron injections. For cold injection into both solvents, th...

From measurements of the surface tension, density, viscosity and light scattering of aqueous solutions of methanol, ethanol and propanol at 293 K, their activity in the surface monolayer, surface excess concentration, and apparent and partial molar volume were determined. The surface excess concentration of alcohols at the water-air interface was determined from the Gibbs equation by using both...

the excessive biological sludge production is one of the disadvantages of aerobic process such as sbr. so the problem of excess sludge production along with its treatment , and disposal in aerobic processes in municipal and industrial waste water can be seen in many parts of the world even in our country . to solve the problem of excess sludge production , reducing in by oxidizing some of the s...

Wastes generated from the processing of some fruits still contain large amounts of chemical components such as polyphenols, which are deemed as very effective antioxidants.This study involves the characterization of wastes generation by pink guava processing and selection of the best solvent that will allow us to extract the excess polyphenols via ultra-filtration membran...

The hydrated electron eaq − has long been a species of considerable interest, studied extensively by both experimental and theoretical methods. Several recent papers have focused on the relation between eaq − and its cluster analog, H2O n , exploring, for example, the connection between the dynamics of the bulk hydrated electron and those of the excess electron in water clusters. A key question...
