Abstract:

The study reveals research of ash content in different composite biomass fuels. It contains analysis of samples obtained from various local Latvian biomass types, i.e. reed, wood, hemp, flax shives and peat, by combining them in different proportions. Ash is a by-product derived from combustion process consisting mostly of inorganic substances that are left after a fuel is burnt. High level of ash content in a fuel is undesirable because it causes problems in automation of biomass combustion process. Previous studies carried out by the author show that average ash content in reeds is 2%, which

The petroleum products unleaded gasoline and reformate have been analyzed by Fourier transform (FT) Raman spectrometry with the use of a fiber optic cable that allows a measurement to be carried out remotely from the spectrometer. Samples were contained in glass cuvettes, and collection of high-quality spectra was simple. Fuel properties such as research octane number (RON), motor octane number (MON), density, benzene content, and flexible volatility index (FVI) were determined by application of the partial least-squares multivariate statistical approach.

Abstract:

The determination of the composition of gas mixtures, especially those analytes which exist, for example, as contaminants for the main components of the gas mixture, very often requires the concentration of the analyte so that it can be quantified. The analysis of gaseous environmental samples, including air and air samples at workplaces, is difficult, which results from: the need to work with samples with an extensive matrix and heterogeneous distribution of pollutants, the stability of the analyte and the presence of interfering substances (interferents) in the sample. On the other hand, the

Abstract:

Anthropogenic contaminants arising from both stationary (power plants, industries and residential heating) and mobile sources (road traffic) can harm ambient air quality in urban areas. Depending upon their physical state, these pollutants are classified as liquid and vapor phases and are subsequently transported to the Earth’s surface through dry and wet deposition. After the deposition of these pollutants onto the surface of earth various health effects caused by these pollutants occurred like cardiovascular diseases and hypertension. In this study four different locations/sites were selecte

Abstract:

Summary One of the tools used for the characterization of gas reservoirs is the geochemistry of gas condensates. The fingerprinting of gas condensates by gas chromatography, in particular, may provide information regarding reservoir compartmentalization, which can be a major uncertainty at the early-field-appraisal stage. An important concern is the capture of suitable liquid samples. When the flowing bottomhole pressure falls below the dewpoint pressure, for example, condensate will drop out near the wellbore and the captured sample may not be representative of the formation fluid.

ABSTRACT On December 8, 2004, the M/V Selendang AYU, a bulk freighter, ran aground on the western shoreline of Unalaska Island, Alaska, spilling an estimated 339,538 gallons of intermediate fuel oil and 14,680 gallons of marine diesel. A primary concern arising from this incident was the potential contamination of traditional subsistence seafood resources consumed by tribal members and others on Unalaska Island. The process of addressing this concern consisted of the following components: 1) formation of a subsistence seafood ‘core’ or management team that included representatives of the local

Abstract:

A review is presented of the manufacture and use of different types of plastic, and the effects of pollution by these materials on animal, human and environmental health, insofar as this is known. Since 2004, the world has made as much plastic as it did in the previous half century, and it has been reckoned that the total mass of virgin plastics ever made amounts to 8.3 billion tonnes, mainly derived from natural gas and crude oil, used as chemical feedstocks and fuel sources. Between 1950 and 2015, a total of 6.3 billion tonnes of primary and secondary (recycled) plastic waste was generated,

Abstract:

A number of major research questions remain concerning the sources and properties of road traffic generated particulate matter. A full understanding of the composition of primary vehicle exhaust aerosol and its contribution to secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation still remains elusive, and many uncertainties exist relating to the semi-volatile component of the particles. Semi-Volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) are compounds which partition directly between the gas and aerosol phases under ambient conditions. The SVOCs in engine exhaust are typically hydrocarbons in the C<sub>15</sub>–C<su

Abstract:

Abstract Objectives Ketones are compounds that provide both fuel and protection against various diseases; they are produced naturally by the liver or exogenously to be ingested. Beta-hydroxybutyrate is the most stable ketone and therefore, often used in ketone supplements. Beta-hydroxybutyrate interconverts with acetoacetate, the least stable ketone. Acetoacetate may offer greater neuroprotection than beta-hydroxybutyrate. Therefore, it is important to find methods to increase acetoacetate levels. The purpose of this study was to determine if exogenous beta-hydroxybutyrate salts significantly

Background: Sweet sorghum (Sorghum saccharatum (L.) Moench) is a unique crop with great potential to serve both the food and energy industries. It is due to the possibility of (bio)ethanol production both from the juice and biomass of this crop. The sorghum stems juice contains sugar in the levels similar to that of sugarcane. Besides, low cultivation requirements for the sweet sorghum make this crop even more attractive for sugar and ethanol production. In terms of technology, sweet sorghum is seen as a transitional feedstock for the first to the second generation bioethanol production. Howev

The kinetic geochemical CO2 reactivity of different rock facies from three regions were predicted over 30 and 1000 year time periods. No material CO2 mineral trapping in the quartz-rich Precipice Sandstone reservoir was predicted, owing to the low rock reactivity. Predicted CO2 mineral tr

Ecosystems services include the collection, concentration, and storage of solar energy as fossil fuels (e.g., coal, petroleum, and natural gas). These concentrated forms of energy were produced by ancient ecosystem services. However, our legal and economic systems fail to recognise the value of the ecosystem service subsidies embedded in fossil fuels. This ecosystem services price subsidy causes overuse and waste of fossil fuels in the free market: fossil fuels are consumed more quickly than they can be replaced by ecosystem services and in far larger quantities than they would be if the price
