IMPACT OF DRILLING WASTE ON HYDROBIONTS

Юг России: экология, развитие, 2015
Aim. The aim is to determine and make an analysis of the concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons and other metals in the waste drilling: drill cuttings (DC) and mud (DM), collected in the area of drilling, to assess and forecast the state of biological ...

The cranial, mandibular, and hyoid anatomy of softshell turtles (Trionychidae): A revised character list for phylogenetic analysis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Softshell turtles (Pan‐Trionychidae) are an early branching clade of hidden‐necked turtles (Cryptodira) with a rich fossil record extending back to the Early Cretaceous. The evolutionary history of softshell turtles is still unresolved because of their conservative morphology combined with high levels of polymorphism related to morphological ...

Description of large, well‐preserved Enchodus specimens from the Bearpaw Formation of Alberta, Canada

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Fishes of the genus Enchodus were abundant and cosmopolitan in the Late Cretaceous, but are primarily known from isolated remains in Canada. Four well‐preserved fish skulls were recovered in recent years from ammolite mines sampling the Bearpaw Formation of Southern Alberta, and are here referred to Enchodus petrosus Cope, 1874.

Waders in a sea of debris: a global overview

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impact of plastic pollution on ecosystems and marine fauna is well documented, although research into its effects on waders (also known as shorebirds) remains limited. Given that waders are exposed to coastal marine litter, this exposure could be a significant factor in the decline of their populations. This study aims to assess the global

Natural South African iron‐rich sand as a functional catalyst in hybrid photocatalytic wet peroxide oxidation technology for the degradation of methyl orange dye pollutant

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This research explored South African iron‐rich sand (SAIRS) as a natural catalyst for light‐mediated wet peroxide oxidation of methyl orange dye in wastewater and at an optimized of conditions of 3500 mg/L catalyst dose, 6 mM H2O2, and pH 2.5, SAIRS achieved 94% methyl orange degradation within 90 min under visible light.

Safety soft sensor development for pilot‐scale ilmenite electric arc furnace using long short‐term memory‐based architecture

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Ilmenite electric arc furnaces (EAFs) are used for smelting titanium‐iron oxide ore at high temperatures generated by electrical arcs to produce titanium slag and pig iron. As these units are pushed to their limits, ensuring safe and reliable operation becomes challenging.

Remediation of Organic Pollutant for Wastewater Treatment by Employing Sustainable Graphene Oxide/NiO‐ZrO2/Zeolite Ternary Composite Material

CleanMat, EarlyView.
Graphene oxide/NiO‐ZrO2/zeolite ternary composite was synthesized hydrothermally. Efficient adsorption of Congo red onto GO/NiO‐ZrO2/zeolite composite was studied. ABSTRACT The present study employs a novel method for the synthesis of graphene oxide (GO) based ternary composite utilized for the adsorption of Congo red (CR), an anionic dye molecule. The

The intrusion of polluted Fly River mud into Torres Strait

, 2021
There is a concern that the Fly River plume from Papua New Guinea (PNG) may be delivering mine-derived polluted mud along the southern PNG coast into the northern Torres Strait, which is the northernmost extent of the Great Barrier Reef. To quantify this
