Stability of High-Level Waste Forms [PDF]
, 1999 The objective of the proposed effort is to use a new approach to develop solution models of complex waste glass systems and spent fuel that are predictive with regard to composition, phase separation, and volatility. The effort will also yield thermodynamic values for waste components that are fundamentally required for corrosion models used to predict

Airborne Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria Isolated from a Concentrated Swine Feeding Operation [PDF]
, 2004 The use of nontherapeutic levels of antibiotics in swine production can select for antibiotic resistance in commensal and pathogenic bacteria in swine. As a result, retail pork products, as well as surface and groundwaters contaminated with swine waste ...

Cermets for High Level Waste Containment [PDF]
, 1979 Cermet materials are currently under investigation as an alternate for the primary containment of high level wastes. The cermet in this study is an iron-nickel base metal matrix containing uniformily dispersed, micron-size fission product oxide compound particles. Cermets possess high thermal conductivity, and typical waste loading of 70 wt.

An Inkjet‐Printed Platinum‐Based Temperature Sensing Element on Polyimide Substrates
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An inkjet‐printed, meander‐structured, nanoparticle platinum‐based resistive temperature sensors on polyimide substrates are demonstrated as proof‐of‐concept. Optimized sintering at 250°C enables stable conductive structures. The Pt100‐ and Pt1000‐type sensors exhibit linear resistance–temperature characteristics with stable TCR in the 20°C–80°C range,
