The demonstration of monitored natural attenuation (MNA) of chlorinated hydrocarbons in groundwater is typically conducted through the evaluation of concentration trends and parent-daughter product relationships along prevailing groundwater flow paths. Unfortunately, at sites contaminated by mixtures of chlorinated ethenes, ethanes, and methanes, the evaluation of MNA by using solely concentrat...

Suppose $G$ is a split connected‎ ‎reductive orthogonal or symplectic group over an infinite field‎ ‎$F,$ $P=MN$ is a maximal parabolic subgroup of $G,$ $frak{n}$ is‎ ‎the Lie algebra of the unipotent radical $N.$ Under the adjoint‎ ‎action of its stabilizer in $M,$ every maximal prehomogeneous‎ ‎subspaces of $frak{n}$ is determined‎.

In this study, a combined process of reduction and adsorption for the degradation azo dye with nanocrystalline Fe80Si10B10 powder as reducing agent is analyzed. A mechanical alloying technique produced powdered alloys needed redox process. The synthesized structure favors efficiency step Reactive Black 5 (RB5) dye. According to UV-Vis analysis, reductive alone allowed nearly complete color remo...

We give equivalent and sufficient criteria for the automorphism group of a complete toric variety, respectively a Gorenstein toric Fano variety, to be reductive. In particular we show that the automorphism group of a Gorenstein toric Fano variety is reductive, if the barycenter of the associated reflexive polytope is zero. Furthermore a sharp bound on the dimension of the reductive automorphism...

Nitrosomonas europaea is an aerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacterium that participates in the C and N cycles. N. europaea utilizes CO(2) as its predominant carbon source, and is an obligate chemolithotroph, deriving all the reductant required for energy and biosynthesis from the oxidation of ammonia (NH(3)) to nitrite (). This bacterium fixes carbon via the Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle via a ty...

Reductive dehalogenases are the critical enzymes for anaerobic organohalide respiration, a microbial metabolic process that has been harnessed for bioremediation efforts to resolve chlorinated solvent contamination in groundwater and is implicated in the global halogen cycle. Reductive dehalogenase sequence diversity is informative for the dechlorination potential of the site or enrichment cult...

A unified extension of the gradient flows and the double bracket equations of ChuDriessel and Brockett is obtained in the frame work of reductive Lie groups. We examine the gradient flows on the orbit in the Cartan subspace of a reductive Lie algebra, under the adjoint action. The results of Chu-Driessel and Brockett are corresponding to the reductive groups GL(n,R) and O(p, q).
