Using small-scale measurements to estimate hypolimnetic oxygen depletion in a deep lake

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Robert Vincent Schwefel

Low oxygen concentrations in lakes and reservoirs are an ongoing environmental concern, particularly in light of increasing anthropogenic activity and climate change. Oxygen depletion processes in lakes are still not completely understood and a variety of ...

Characterizing the Effects of a “Switchable Water” Additive on the Aqueous Solubility of Small Molecules

Paul Joseph Dyson

“Switchable water” is an aqueous solution containing a water‐soluble amine additive that exhibits CO2‐switchable properties, such as large changes in ionic strength, by forming an ammonium bicarbonate salt. Switchable water has been used to reversibly “sal ...

Carbohydrate stabilization extends the kinetic limits of chemical polysaccharide depolymerization

Jeremy Luterbacher, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago

Polysaccharide depolymerization is an essential step for valorizing lignocellulosic biomass. In inexpensive systems such as pure water or dilute acid mixtures, carbohydrate monomer degradation rates exceed hemicellulose—and especially cellulose—depolymeriz ...

Oxaliplatin reacts with DMSO only in the presence of water

Paul Joseph Dyson, Laure Menin, Hristo Plamenov Varbanov

Herein we show that oxaliplatin reacts rapidly with DMSO in aqueous solutions, despite being stable in pure DMSO and pure water. Furthermore, the reactivity of the clinically applied Pt(II) drugs in water/DMSO and PBS/DMSO mixtures, and the nature of the s ...

Reduction of process steam demand and water-usage through heat integration in sugar and ethanol production from sugarcane - Evaluation of different plant configurations

Adriano Viana Ensinas

The sugarcane industry represents one of the most important economic activities in Brazil producing sugar and ethanol for the internal and external markets. There are also plants dedicated only to ethanol production. The aim of this study is to accomplish ...

Solar photo-Fenton and UV/H2O2 processes against the antidepressant Venlafaxine in urban wastewaters and human urine. Intermediates formation and biodegradability assessment

Hubert Girault, César Pulgarin, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Dominique Grandjean, Stefanos Giannakis, Milica Jovic, Idriss Hendaoui

In this work, the use of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) against the degradation of an emerging contaminant has been subjected under systematic investigation. The optimization of treatment of the anti- depressant drug Venlafaxine (VFA) was performed, u ...

Firn Meltwater Retention on the Greenland Ice Sheet: A Model Comparison

Michael Lehning, Nander Wever

Runoff has recently become the main source of mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet and is an important contributor to global sea level rise. Linking runoff to surface meltwater production is complex, as meltwater can be retained within the firn by refree ...

Synthesis and Characterization of High-Photoactivity Electrodeposited Cu2O solar absorber by photoelectrochemistry and ultrafast spectroscopy

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Jan Cornelius Brauer, Adriana Paracchino

We present a systematic study on the effects of electrodeposition parameters on the photoelectrochemical properties of Cu2O. The influence of deposition variables (temperature, pH, and deposition current density) on conductivity has been widely explored in ...
