3.1. Sample Alteration Both types of shale rock consist on a broad scale quartz, feldspar, plagioclase, calcite, dolomite, pyrite, chlorite, kaolinite, and illite. Marcellus shale has long been known as a major source rock, while Pottsville shale is potential caprock for CO2 storage. X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments were conducted on both shale samples by Olabode and Radonjic for the compositional data. Comparing the source rock and caprock, both rocks has similar tectosilicates content (quartz
Disinfection Chemicals Introduction Water disinfection is removal, deactivation or elimination of pathogenic bacteria. Bacteria gets damaged or even deactivated, disabling reproduction. Disinfectants must not just eliminate bacteria. They must have residual effect. The disinfectant must not allow pathogenic bacteria to develop within the domestic plumbing after disinfection, causing water being decontaminated. Chemical disinfection of water the uses following disinfectants. Chlorine, Chlorine dioxide
Mineralogy in thin section is more obvious with a total of eight minerals identifiable. K-feldspar, plagioclase, quartz, biotite, chlorite, hornblende, pyroxene, and opaques were identified. Texture (thin section): • Overall grain size is coarse grained, with a porphyritic texture due to pebble sized k-feldspar grains, intergranular, non-foliated, myrmekitic texture in the plagioclase
Most people can guess that the handwarmers we use so often, especially during the colder seasons, is warm as a result of chemical reactions. How is it, however, that with a simple shake, it awakens the chemicals to suddenly react with each other? Which chemicals are the best at giving off heat during reaction? How do they actually work? Our recent study of thermodynamics has led me to become curious about those little helpful packages of warmth. The best kind of hand warmers are ones that get
from Franklin, New Jersey. It was discovered in the late Hadean Era. Also known as black granite, diabase makes up countertops, but no fossils can be found in the rock. Minerals in diabase are magnetite, olivine, ilmenite, hornblende, biotite, and chlorite. Diabase is an igneous rock that forms from magma from a volcano eruption. The rock can form in the ocean mostly but sometimes can form near the beach as well. 159001444 Museum Assignment 2 1) These minerals are found mostly in the following New
Mercury Chor-alkali is the least common form of chlorine production because it creates a lot of drawbacks. The use of such a large amount of mercury results to be very costly, especially when involving the cost of environmental protection. While some of the pros of mercury might include requiring low brine purity and very high quality of products, mercury technology is one of the most expensive technologies when it comes to electricity consumption, which makes it very unsustainable. While Diaphragm
• the type of disinfectant used ,say for considering case of disinfection by chlorine dioxide (ClO2) substantial amount of chlorite (ClO2 -) is formed which acts as a precursor or product.(Bull ,1982) • the disinfection dose, • the residual disinfection involved, • nature and conditions of disinfection • temperature, and pH, • reaction time, • nature of source water • the constituents of water (organic as well as inorganic ), and • most importantly the concentrations and properties of naturally
Family/pg. 442: two or more people who consider themselves related by blood, marriage, or adoption. The video showed how in Libby, Montana family is the number one priority. One of the men interviewed in the video, Les with asbestosis, showed a great example of this. Les was not born in Libby. His car broke down there, and after a while of staying there he met his future wife. They got married, had a family and stayed married. He saw how important family was, and he did not want any other families
to the strong oxidation property of chlorine dioxide, it has been used for disinfection process to destroy most of the pathogens. But, chlorine dioxide does not react with natural organic matter to form THM. However, other DBPs such as un-reacted chlorite ions and chlorate ions may have probable adverse health effects (Aranda-Rodriguez, Koudjonou et al. 2008). Chloramine is commonly used as a secondary disinfectant in municipal water distribution systems as an alternative to free chlorine. But, chloramine
Abstract The Hadrianic Baths is one of the most important archaeological sites in Leptis Magna- Libya. It was built at the command of Emperor Hadrian in the early 2nd century CE; they represent some of the most lavish structures of Leptis Magna. It is unique in design and building technique. It was built of limestone, marble and brick. This paper mainly describes the deterioration of marble. The marble in the monuments can be classified into several types, based on its color, texture, chemical composition
Chemistry Extended Essay “How does pH affect the concentration of trihalomethanes formed in a sample of reservoir water when it is disinfected with chlorine or chloramine and to what extent do both chloramine and free chlorine decompose when exposed to ultraviolet light?” Abstract This investigation aims to find out how pH affects the concentration of trihalomethanes formed in a sample of reservoir water when it is disinfected with chlorine or chloramine and the extent to which both
Abstract Meat borne diseases associated with consumption of ready-to-eat meat contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes represents a considerable public health concern. The ability to persist in food-processing environments and multiply under refrigeration temperatures makes L. monocytogenes a serious threat to public health. L. monocytogenes contamination is one of the leading microbiological causes of food recalls. Ready-to-eat (RTE) cooked meat and meat products are frequently contaminated with
