Biphasic Extraction of Selected Heavy Metals From Corn With the Aid of Kosmotropic Salts
ABSTRACT This study investigated the use of aqueous two‐phase extraction (ATPE) with kosmotropic salts for the extraction of toxic heavy metals from maize. Heavy metals, such as cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe), are harmful to human health because they accumulate in the food chain and may cause kidney damage, cancer and nervous system problems.

Spatially resolved 23Na magnetic resonance dispersion measurement in porous media
Quantitative 23Na MRI was employed to analyze dispersion in realistic core plug samples and was compared with the conventional breakthrough curve. 23Na MRI provided a more effective aassessment of core plug heterogeneity than the conventional method. Abstract Tracer tests are widely used in the petroleum industry to assess reservoir core plugs, relying

Cultural geography of heat: Artistic experiments with heat’s animacies
A sustained, cultural geographical engagement with heat is long overdue. I advance this agenda by engaging with the work of contemporary artists. Artists are responding to uneven conditions of global heating by exploring heat’s animacies: how heat interweaves with the practices and textures of life.
