Tkc process air emissions from municipal wastewater treatmentplants primarily consist of hydrogen sulj?degas, along with other oigano-sulfilr compounds, and some trace quantities of volatile oiganic compounds (VOC). Various Federal and/or State Uegulativtzs require monitoring, and control of these em&sions dooutn to some specijied levels. At the Deer Island Wastewater Treatment Plant of the Mas...

We carry out Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamic simulations to show that the reaction between the smallest Criegee intermediate, CH2OO, and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) at the air/water interface can be observed within few picoseconds. The reaction follows both concerted and stepwise mechanisms with former being the dominant reaction pathway. The concerted reaction proceeds with or without the involv...

BACKGROUND Reduced metabolic activity improves outcome in many clinical and experimental models of injury and diseases that result in insufficient blood supply. Recently, we demonstrated that inhaled hydrogen sulfide gas can be used to reversibly reduce metabolic activity in mice. We hypothesize that hydrogen sulfide will confer benefit in injuries and diseases related to insufficient blood sup...

In a one-pot reaction, hydrogen peroxide generated from H(2) and O(2) on a Pd catalyst was utilised as oxidant for the TiO(2) catalyzed conversion of a sulfide to a sulfone. This transformation, where two different nanoparticle catalysts were employed in a supercritical carbon dioxide/water biphasic system, demonstrates the potential of compartmentalising catalytic processes in consecutive reac...

BACKGROUND While microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) can simultaneously produce bioelectrochemical hydrogen and treat wastewater, they consume considerable energy to overcome the unfavorable thermodynamics, which is not sustainable and economically feasible in practical applications. This study presents a proof-of-concept system in which hydrogen can be produced in an MEC powered by theoretical...

A coagulation treatment is a separation technology widely used in industries as pre-treatment step to remove the dissolved organic matter wastewater. However, type of coagulant, optimized dose, and cost associated with various commercially employed coagulants must be investigated for oil gas produced water. In this study, five coagulants—ferric chloride, aluminum potassium sulphate, chitosan, s...
