ABSTRACT-Application of models for simulation of solute and pollutants transport in soil can reduce time and costs for remediation process. HYDRUS-1D model was developed to simulate the one–dimensional flow of soil water, heat, solute and viruses in variably saturated–unsaturated porous media. The objective of this investigation is to determine the solute transport parameters in disturbed soil ...

The osmotic dehydration causes water removing from food and also a soluble solid uptake into thefoodstuffs. However, large penetration of solute into the food becomes a major problem in osmoticdehydration.Pre-coating the food to be dehydrated with an artificial, edible barrier was also explored as a wayto efficiently hinder solute penetration. In this study the effect of edible coating (CMC),co...

Countercurrent chromatography (CCC) is a liquid chromatography technique in which the stationary phase is also a liquid. The solute separation is based on partitioning between the two immiscible liquid phases: the mobile phase and the support-free liquid stationary phase. Octanol-water partition coefficients (Po/w) of 17 βblockers and 17 sulphonamides were determined by CCC. Some of the Po/w co...

The behaviours of as-received and recrystallised (homogenised) MA 956, an Al-containing Cr-rich ferritic stainless steel, aged at 475 "C for up to 2900 hours have been investigated. Atom probe microanalysis of the decomposition products revealed that A1 did not partition significantly to the Fe-rich phase after =600 hours ageing, contrary to thermodynamic predictions. Ageing to 2900 hours, howe...

Solute clustering and partitioning behavior in the early crystallization stage of an Fe73.5Si13.5B9Nb3Cu1 amorphous alloy have been studied by employing a three dimensional atom probe (3DAP) and a high resolution electron microscope (HREM). 3DAP results have clearly shown that Cu atom clusters are present in the amorphous state after annealing below the crystallization temperature. The density ...

Membranes are often damaged by freezing and/or dehydration, and this damage may be reduced by solutes. In many cases, these phenomena can be explained by the physical behavior of membrane-solute-water systems. Both solutes and membranes reduce the freezing temperature of water, although their effects are not simply additive. The dehydration of membranes induces large mechanical stresses in the ...

Grass leaves grow from the base. Unlike those of dicotyledonous plants, cells of grass leaves expand enclosed by sheaths of older leaves, where there is little or no transpiration, and go through developmental stages in a strictly linear arrangement. The environmental or developmental factor that limits leaf cell expansion must do so through biophysical means at the cellular level: wall-yieldin...

TOUGH2_MP is a massively parallel version of TOUGH2. It was developed for running on distributed-memory parallel computers to simulate large simulation problems that may not be solved by the standard, single-CPU TOUGH2 code. The new code implements an efficient massively parallel scheme, while preserving the full capacity and flexibility of the original TOUGH2 code. The new software uses the ME...
