A simple biodegradation system consisting of an air stripping tank and a bioreactor was proposed for the treatment of volatile organic chemicals in wastewater. Toluene was used as a model of volatile organic chemicals. An aqueous solution of toluene and a basic mineral medium were placed in the air stripping tank and bioreactor, respectively. Toluene was stripped by supplying compressed air int...

Abstract Solid‐state batteries (SSBs) hold the potential to improve energy density and offer enhanced safety when compared lithium‐ion batteries. However, development of practical SSBs faces major challenges, such as filament growth void formation, which necessitate a comprehensive understanding intrinsic solid–solid interfaces limiting mechanisms. In this work, underpinning asymmetry in mechan...

Quantification of drugs within the skin is essential for topical and transdermal delivery research. Over the last two decades, horizontal sectioning, consisting of tape stripping throughout the stratum corneum, has become one of the traditional investigative techniques. Tape stripping of human stratum corneum is widely used as a method for studying the kinetics and penetration depth of drugs. T...

This article presents novel data on partial casemarking in Japanese stripping/sluicing: only the final NP in multiple stripping/sluicing may lack a case particle. These data challenge previous works that assign radically distinct structures to stripping/sluicing depending on whether or not case-marking is involved. These case-marking patterns are reducible to incremental growth of semantic repr...

Skull stripping is a major phase in MRI brain imaging applications and it refers to the removal of the brain’s non-cerebral tissues. The main problem in skull-stripping is the segmentation of the non-cerebral and the intracranial tissues due to their homogeneity intensities. Numerous techniques were applied in the studies of skull stripping, most common are region growing and mathematical morph...

The efficiency of ammonia removal from fresh source-segregated domestic food waste digestate using biogas as a stripping agent was studied in batch experiments at 35, 55 and 70°C, at gas flow rates of 0.125 and 0.250Lbiogasmin(-1)L(-1)digestate with and without pH adjustment. Higher temperatures and alkaline conditions were required for effective ammonia removal, and at 35°C with or without pH ...

a selective and sensitive method for determination of cadmium and zinc is presented. the method is based on adsorptive accumulation of the complexes of cd (ii) and zn (ii) ions with 4-amiono-5-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3h-1,2,4-triazol-3-tion (mmtt) onto hanging mercury drop electrode (hmde), followed by reduction of the adsorbed species by voltammetric scan using differential pulse modulation. the li...

extraction of nickel and its co-extraction with copper from ammoniacal media into emulsion liquid membrane systems (elms) was investigated using lix 84i as the carrier. measurement of the solute stripped in the internal phase of emulsion opened a new dimension in the study of the elm extraction processes. the effect of operating parameters such as feed ph, initial feed concentration, and treat ...

Periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to systematically investigate the effect of reaction intermediate on catalytic activity for hydrazine (N2H4) decomposition on Rh(111). Reaction mechanisms via intramolecular and NH2-assisted N2H4 decompositions are comparatively analyzed, including adsorption configuration, reaction energy and barrier of elementary step, ...
