Pulse Jet Mixing

Slurry mixed in vessels via pulse jet mixers has a periodic, rather than steady, concentration profile. Measurements of local concentration taken at the center of the tank at a range of elevations within the mixed region were analyzed to obtain a greater understanding of how the periodic pulse jet mixing cycle affects the local concentration. Data were obtained at the critical suspension velocity, when all solids are suspended at the end of the pulse. The data at a range of solids loadings are analyzed to observe the effect of solids concentration during the suspension and settling portions of the mixing cycle.

Grain boundary segregation is the process by which solute elements in a material diffuse to the grain boundaries, become trapped there, and increase their local concentration at the boundary over that in the bulk. As a result of this process this local concentration of the segregant at the grain boundary can be many orders of magnitude greater than the bulk concentration of the segregant. The importance of this problem lies in the fact that grain boundary segregation can affect many material properties such as fracture, corrosion, and grain growth.One of the best ways to study grain boundary segregation is with Auger electron spectroscopy. This spectroscopy is an extremely surface sensitive technique. When it is used to study grain boundary segregation the sample must first be fractured intergranularly in the high vacuum spectrometer. This fracture surface is then the one that is analyzed. The development of scanning Auger spectrometers have allowed researchers to first image the fracture surface that is created and then to perform analyses on individual grain boundaries.

The technique of Z-contrast in STEM offers the possibility to determine the local concentration of macromolecules like lipids, proteins or DNA. Contrast formation depends on the atomic composition of the particular structure. In the case of DNA, its phosphorous content discriminates it from other biological macromolecules. In our studies, sections of E. coli, the dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae and Euglena spec. cells were used which were obtained by cryofixation followed by freeze-substitution into acetone with 3% glutaraldehyde. The samples were then embedded either in Lowicryl HM20 at low temperature or in Epon at high temperature. Sections were coated on both sides with 30Å carbon.The DF- and the inelastic image have been recorded simultaneously with a Cryo-STEM. This Cryo-STEM is equipped with a highly dispersive Electron Energy Loss Spectrometer. With this instrument pure Z-contrast can be achieved either with a Filtered DF-image divided by the inelastic image or, as is used in this paper, by dividing the conventional DF-image by an inelastic image which has been recorded with an inelastic detector whose response is dependent on the total energy loss of the inelastically scattered electrons.
