Hyperspectral Remote Sensing of Serpentine Rocks and Asbestos Bearing Roofing Slate
Asbestos is a commercial term that represents several different silicate minerals which separate into long thin fibers. Asbestos has been used in numerous commercial applications due to its outstanding incombustible and insulating characteristics but causes fatal diseases such as lung cancer, asbestosis and malignant mesothelioma so strict regulations and controls for asbestos bearing rocks and...
متن کاملCharacterization of Bitumen Bearing Carbonate Rocks
Several countries, including Canada, contain sizeable bitumen resources in highly fractured carbonate rocks. Any possible recovery of bitumen from these reservoirs will be highly dependent on proper understanding of the rock and fluid properties and how they vary in the reservoir. These carbonates are extremely heterogeneous, and as a result proper reservoir characterization is challenging. In ...
متن کاملOrgan mapping using parelectric spectroscopy.
Whenever physical methods are used in the field of diagnostics, it is necessary to find an unambiguous mapping of the properties of the tested tissues (e.g. normal or pathologic) to their answer to the respective analysis tool such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), ultrasound, x-rays or the relatively new method of parelectric spectroscopy (PS). The well-established non-invasive NMR method h...
متن کاملProtein abnormalities in macrophages bearing asbestos.
Computerized techniques for the evaluation of O'Farrell two-dimensional electrophoretic gels have been applied to proteins derived from asbestos bearing macrophages. Preliminary results indicate definite changes in the protein content of cells depending on fiber phagocytosis.
متن کاملPrediction of long-term slake durability of clay-bearing rocks
A research program was conducted on different clay-bearing rocks selected from the Ilam, Sarpol-e Zahab and Tajarak regions (Iran) to predict their slaking characteristics. The new durability apparatus (nested mesh drums) separates disintegrated particles varying from > 25.4 to < 2 mm as the drums were rotated. On the basis of the particle size distribution, the disintegration ratio (DR) was us...
