Behaviour of polychlorinated biphenyls contaminating soil near Zadar.

This study analysed PCB-contaminated natural soil excavated from an area adjacent to an electrical transformer station in Zadar, Croatia. For one year, PCB concentrations were measured in the soil and leachate water under natural climatic conditions. After 12 months, a negligible quantity of Aroclor 1248 (0.024% in average) and a total of seven key PCB congeners (IUPAC No: PCB-28, PCB-52, PCB-1...

Control of Venturini Method Based Matrix Converter in Input Voltage Variations

Matrix converter is a single-stage converter which directly connects a three-phase voltage source to a three-phase load without dc-link components. Therefore, any harmonic distortion and imbalance in input voltage directly reflect to the output of the converter. Recently, many researchers have made an effort to cope with this problem. In this paper, under distorted input voltage conditions, beh...
