New strategies for optimal methane production from long chain fatty acids [PDF]

, 2012
High methane production can be expected from biodegradation of long chain fatty acids (LCFA) in anaerobic bioreactors; however, in practice, this process is limited by LCFA accumulation onto the sludge.

Sepiolite immobilizes soil Cd to optimize microbial community structure thereby promoting wheat growth and reducing Cd accumulation

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Immobilization remediation is a widely employed technology that effectively reduces the migration rate and bioavailability of cadmium (Cd). Sepiolite, a commonly used remediation agent, has proven effective in decreasing soil Cd availability and reducing

Alteration and vein mineralisation within the Lizard complex, south Cornwall: Constraints on the timing of serpentinisation. [PDF]

, 2013
Two distinct episodes of serpentinisation have been identified within the peridotites of the Lizard complex. The first episode (primary serpentinisation) is represented by the complex and pervasive hydration of the Lizard peridotite.
