The Effects of Halogenated Compounds on the Anaerobic Digestion of Macroalgae

open access: yesFermentation, 2020
The urgent need to replace fossil fuels has seen macroalgae advancing as a potential feedstock for anaerobic digestion. The natural methane productivity (dry weight per hectare) of seaweeds is greater than in many terrestrial plant systems.

HYDROCARBON INSECTICIDES: THEIR RISKS FOR ENVIRONMENT AND HUMAN HEALTH [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2014
Insecticides are used to control diseases spread by arthropods, but theys vary greatly in toxicity. Toxicity depends on the chemical and physical properties of a substance, and may be defined as the quality of being poisonous or harmful to animals or ...

Polydiphenylamine/Zeolite Y composites and electrical conductivity responses toward halogenated hydrocarbons [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2013
Composites of polydiphenylamine (D-PDPA) and zeolite Y with H+ as the cation (Y_H+) have been fabricated to be used as a sensing material towards non-halogenated and halogenated solvents (hexane, dichloromethane, 1, 2-dichloroethane, chloroform).

Analysis of the chemical composition of organic aerosol at the Mt. Sonnblick observatory using a novel high mass resolution thermal-desorption proton-transfer-reaction mass-spectrometer (hr-TD-PTR-MS) [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2010
For the first time a high mass resolution thermal desorption proton transfer reaction mass spectrometer (hr-TD-PTR-MS) was deployed in the field to analyze the composition of the organic fraction of aerosols. We report on measurements from the remote Mt.

Presence of Halogenated Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Milk Powder and the Consequence to Human Health

open access: yesToxics, 2022
Recent reports of the presence of halogenated derivatives of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in human foods of animal origin, such as chlorinated (ClPAHs) and brominated (BrPAHs) PAHs, suggest that their contamination in dairy products may also ...
