Determination of total phosphorus and nitrogen in turbid waters by oxidation with alkaline potassium peroxodisulfate and low pressure microwave digestion, autoclave heating or the use of closed vessels in a hot water bath: comparison with Kjeldahl digestion

The evaluation of the use of alkaline peroxodisulfate digestion with low pressure microwave, autoclave or hot water bath heating for the determination of total phosphorus and nitrogen in turbid lake and river waters is described. The efficiency of these digestion procedures were compared to a Kjeldahl digestion procedure with sulphuric acid-potassium sulfate and copper sulfate. The final solution before digestion was 0.045 M in potassium peroxodisulfate and 0.04 M in sodium hydroxide. Procedures were evaluated by the analysis of suspensions of two reference materials, National Institute of Environmental Science, Japan, no. 3 Chlorella and no. 2 pond sediment and natural turbid waters. Best recoveries of phosphorus and nitrogen by microwave heating were obtained when solutions were digested at 95 °C for 40 min. Quantitative recoveries of phosphorus from Chlorella suspensions up to 1000 mg/l were obtained by all three heating procedures, but incomplete recoveries of nitrogen occurred above 20 mg N/l in the digested sample. Good recoveries of phosphorus and nitrogen from suspended sediment suspensions were obtained only from solutions containing <150 mg/l of suspended sediments. Recoveries of phosphorus from phosphorus compounds containing COP and CP bonds added to distilled water were quantitative (94-113%) except for polyphosphates (microwave, 34±8; autoclave, 114±6; water bath, 96±4) and aluminium phosphate (8-23%). Recoveries of nitrogen compounds containing CN bonds added to distilled water were quantitative (94-96%). The analysis of a range of natural turbid water samples by alkaline peroxodisulfate and microwave, autoclave and water bath heating gave similar total phosphorus and nitrogen results. All procedures using alkaline peroxodisulfate underestimate phosphorus concentrations at high suspended sediment concentrations (>150 mg/l) and are only suitable for the analysis of very turbid samples when the turbidity is due to organic matter (algal cells, plant detritus). Underestimation of nitrogen occurs when samples contain more than 20 mg N/l.

A stream tube model for miscible flow

A simple theoretical model is described for deriving a 1-dimensional equation for the spreading of a tracer in a steady flow at the field scale. The originality of the model is to use a stochastic appoach not in the 3-dimensional space but in the 1-D space of the stream tubes. The simplicity of calculation comes from the local relationship between permeability and velocity in a 1-D flow. The spreading of a tracer front is due to local variations in the cross-sectional area of the stream tubes, which induces randomness in travel time. The derived transport equation is averaged in the main flow direction. It differs from the standard dispersion equation. The roles of time and space variables are exchanged. This result can be explained by using the statistical theory of Continuous Time Random Walk instead of a standard Random Walk. However, the two equations are very close, since their solutions have the same first and second moments. Dispersivity is found to be equal to the product of the correlation length by the variance of the logarithm of permeability, a result similar to Gelhar's macrodispersion.Nomenclature A total cross-section area of the sample - C (resident) concentration of tracer - D,D ^* dispersion coefficient - F flux of tracer - G probability distribution function for permeability in the stream-tube segments - I tracer intensity (mass crossing a surface per unit time) - K permeability - L length of the medium - M number of stream tubes in the medium - N number of segments along a stream tube - P pressure - Q total flow rate in the sample - a length of an elementary stream-tube segment - g probability distribution function for permeability in the space - i, j indices, tube numbers - q flow rate in each stream tube - s variable cross-section area of a stream tube - t, t time - u front velocity - x space variable in the flow direction - small local variation in time - , _t longitudinal, transverse dispersivity - porosity of the porous medium - correlation length in the permeability field - viscosity of the fluid - time for filling an elementary stream tube segment - standard deviation of a stochastic variable - probability distribution of arrival times (Gaussian)     

ContinuousK-theory

We study arithmetical properties of homotopy groups of thel-adic completion of Quillen'sK-theory space of number field, with a view on the Dwyer-Friedlander comparison map into étaleK-theory. The relation of these groups toK-theory is a complete analogy to the relation of continuous étale cohomology to étale cohomology. We identify the torsion subgroup of the resulting term with the subgroup of divisible elements inK _2n (F). We prove that this term is sent isomorphically into étaleK-theory, giving some further evidence for the Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjectures.     

Chains of strongly non-reflexive dual groups of integer-valued continuous functions

Answering a question of Eklof-Mekler (Almost free modules, set-theoretic methods, North-Holland, Amsterdam, 1990), we prove: (1) If there exists a non-reflecting stationary set of consisting of ordinals of cofinality for each , then there exist abelian groups such that and for each . (2) There exist abelian groups such that for each and for each . The groups are the groups of -valued continuous functions on a topological space and their dual groups.

     

Improved oxygen delivery in a continuous-roller-bottle reactor

Variations to the original aeration system in a continuous roller bottle reactor of novel design have been tested and compared for optimal oxygen (O) delivery. Reactor operating parameters that affect O transfer are rotation rate, liquid-volume level, fresh-feed rate, and supplementary-aeration rate. Design modifications to enhance gas-liquid O transfer include the addition of wall baffles and center baffles. The number and location of each of these baffles are compared for their effect on k_La values in the reaction chamber. The liquid feed into the system has been modified to improve the axial liquid mixing and O transfer.     

Continuous chromatographic separation of glucose-fructose mixtures using anion-exchange resins

Summary A semi-continuous, counter-current chromatographic refiner (SCCR) was packed with an anion resin in the bisulphite form and used to separate mixtures of sugars from different feedstocks. Products with purities of more than 99% were achieved and solid concentrations of the fructose products of 12% w/v were possible. The deterioration of the anion resin was controlled by simple precautions and thus its useful life was substantially prolonged.     

Role of solvent in the compatibility of a vinylchloride–vinylacetate–maleic acid terpolymer and nitrocellulose blends

The compatibility of cast films of a vinylchloride–vinylacetate–maleic acid terpolymer (VMCH) and nitrocellulose (NC) blends is influenced by solvents. Transparent films of VMCH/NC blends are obtained when cast from solvents such as tetrahydrofuran or cyclohexanone, whereas hazy films are obtained when cast from solvents such as acetone or ethylacetate. Visible spectroscopy and phase morphology were used to analyse the compatibility–incompatibility of the blend. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies demonstrate that the transparent film is compatible, but the hazy film is incompatible. Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) studies establish that a greater interaction is observed between the polymer pair in case of the compatible blend than in the case of the incompatible blend. A solvent dependency of blend compatibility is reflected in this study. The conformational state of the polymers in solution, which is responsible for the compatibility phenomena, may depend on the donor number and/or Taft-β value of the solvent. The greater the donor number and/or the Taft-β value, the higher may be the level of interaction between the solvent and the polymer molecules, which in turn may give a compatible blend after removal of the solvent.     

Continuous determination of carbon dioxide evolved during thermal decomposition reactions

A simple device suitable for continuous monitoring of carbon dioxide evolved during thermal decomposition reactions is described. Carbon dioxide is transported by a carrier gas through the device connected to thermoanalytical equipment and absorbed by soda lime reagent. The reaction heat released is linearly proportional to the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed.
