A laboratory-scale acidogenic anaerobic sequencing batch reactor was set up to test the effect of pH change on microbial community structure of the reactor biomass and process performance. No immediate performance change on acidogenesis was observed after the pH change. However, as the hydrogenotrophic methanogen population decreased, hydrogen content in biogas increased followed by a sharp dec...

The main corrosion patterns of high temperature sulfur corrosion, dew point stress air and hydrogen sulfide in recovery plant are discussed, the corresponding mechanisms various analyzed, targeted anti-corrosion measures proposed terms structural design, equipment material selection, start-up shutdown protection operation specification.

PURPOSE Hydrogen is a proven novel antioxidant that selectively reduces hydroxyl radicals. In this study, we investigated the effects of hydrogen-rich saline solution on the prevention of renal injury induced by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) and on renal function recovery. METHODS A rat model of renal I/R injury was induced by 45 min occlusion of the left renal pedicle, followed by 108 h reperfu...

alkali and alkaline earth metals hydrogen sulfate catalyzed the one-pot three component condensation reactions of aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and urea or thiourea under solvent-free conditions leading to 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1h)-ones in high yields at 80 °c. our results showed that biginelli reaction not only is ph dependent, but the cation of catalyst plays an important role.

objective: to evaluate the current scientific evidence for the applicability, safety and effectiveness of pathways of enhanced recovery after emergency surgery (eras). methods: we undertook a search using pubmed and cochrane databases for eras protocols in emergency cases. the search generated 65 titles; after eliminating the papers not meeting search criteria, we selected 4 cohort studies and ...

Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) have been explored for various applications, including the removal of industrial pollutants, wastewater treatment chemical synthesis, and biosensing. On other hand, MEC technology is still in its early stages faces significant obstacles regarding practical large-scale implementations. MECs are used energy generation hydrogen peroxide, methane, hydrogen/biohyd...

The potential of supercritical water gasification (SCWG) of macroalgae for hydrogen and methane production has been investigated in view of the growing interest in a future macroalgae biorefinery concept. The compositions of syngas from the catalytic SCWG of Laminaria hyperborea under varying parameters including catalyst loading, feed concentration, hold time and temperature have been investig...

Hydrogen peroxide is used to cleanse and irrigate wounds. As it decomposes immediately into water and oxygen on contact with organic tissue, it is usually regarded as a safe agent. We report a case of oxygen embolism associated with hydrogen peroxide irrigation of the surgical field during anterior fusion of the cervical vertebrae. It was accompanied by precipitous hypotension and decrease in p...
