Insights into constraining coastal carbon export from radioisotopes

open access: goldFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Coastal shelves are important regions for carbon transformation and storage, however, constraining coastal carbon budgets and their uncertainties remains a challenge.

Removal of radioisotopes in solution and bactericidal/bacteriostatic sterilising power in activated carbon and metal silver filters [PDF]

open access: greenEnvironmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2008
Activated carbon filters play an important role in water filtration and purification from contaminants of different origin. Their limit consists in bacterial proliferation, which may occur only during prolonged periods of non-use and in their ability to remove radioactive contaminants present in waste water from Industry or Nuclear Medicine departments.

Biokinetic Evaluation of Contrast Media Loaded Carbon Nanotubes Using a Radiographic Device

open access: yesToxics, 2021
Considerable progress has been made in various fields of applied research on the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Because CNTs are fibrous nanomaterials, biosafety of CNTs has been discussed.

Development and characterization of carbon-bonded carbon fiber insulation for radioisotope space power systems [PDF]

open access: green, 1985
The General-Purpose Heat Source (GPHS), an improved radioisotope heat source, employs a unique thermal insulation material, carbon-bonded carbon fiber (CBCF), to protect the fuel capsule and to help achieve the highest possible specific power. The CBCF insulation is made from chopped rayon fiber about 10 ..mu..m in diameter and 250 ..mu..m long, which ...

Novel reverse radioisotope labelling experiment reveals carbon assimilation of marine calcifiers under ocean acidification conditions [PDF]

open access: bronzeMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Abstract Ocean acidification by anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions is projected to depress metabolic and physiological activity in marine calcifiers. To evaluate the sensitivity of marine organisms against ocean acidification, the assimilation of nutrients into ...

Beyond Accelerator Mass Spectrometry: Recent Developments in All-Optical Measurements of Radioisotope Carbon

open access: goldACS Omega
The environmental impact of non-renewable energy has come under scrutiny, prompting investments in carbon management strategies like renewable fuels. The presence of radiocarbon in biofuel blends can validate their composition for government regulators and quality control.
