AbstractThe influence of hypochlorite, chlorite and chlorate in the UO2 dissolution rate has been studied experimentally using a continuous flow-through reactor. Uranium concentration in each outflow solution was measured as a function of time and dissolution rates were determined once the steady-state was reached. The results obtained show that the influence of the hypochlorite anion concentration on the UO2 dissolution rate can be expressed by the following empirical equationrdiss = 10-8.7±0.1•[ClO-]0.28±0.04The dissolution rates obtained in this work were higher than those previously determined in presence of either oxygen or hydrogen peroxide using the same experimental methodology.In contrast, neither chlorate nor chlorite had any significant effect on the UO2 dissolution rates under the experimental conditions of this work.

Kinetics of Carbon Tetrachloride biodegradation are evaluated in a continuous-flow fixed-biofilm reactor with controlled initial redox potential. The column was seeded with a mixed culture of indigenous microorganisms Pseudomonas cepacia and Providencia stuartii. The fixed biofilm reactor exhibited 98%–99.9% biodegradation of CT introduced into the reactor at an initial concentration of about 200 μg/l for retention times of 1 to 4 days respectively. Four models were employed to evaluate the kinetics of CT biodegradation. These included: Eckenfelder (1989), Arvin (1991), Bouwer and McCarty (1985) and a biphasic model. Comparison of calculated results with observed results between these models agreed very closely to each other (0.968 < R2 < 0.999). Predicted performance was best described by the model of Bouwer and McCarty (1985). However, the biphasic and Eckenfelder models provided excellent correlations and were much simpler to apply. The biphasic model yielded very good correlations of the data for all detention times evaluated; whereas, the Eckenfelder model effected comparable results only at the longer retention times studied.

An automated method is described, using standard continuous flow techniques, for the determination of urine fluoride ion concentration using a fluoride ion selective electrode. It is shown that the kinetics of the electrode response to changes in fluoride ion can be used for the accurate measurement of fluoride ion concentration in urine, and that equilibration of the electrode response is not a prerequisite for the measurement of fluoride ion. Recovery experiments are in the range 83 to 90%; in-batch precision is between 0·9 and 1·6% and carryover 2·5% or less.

A novel approach for preparing carbohydrate chips based on polydopamine (PDA) surface to study carbohydrate–lectin interactions by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) biosensor instrument has been developed. The amino-carbohydrates were immobilized on PDA-coated quartz crystals via Schiff base reaction and/or Michael addition reaction. The resulting carbohydrate-chips were applied to QCM biosensor instrument with flow-through system for real-time detection of lectin–carbohydrate interactions. A series of plant lectins, including wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), concanavalin A (Con A), Ulex europaeus agglutinin I (UEA-I), soybean agglutinin (SBA), and peanut agglutinin (PNA), were evaluated for the binding to different kinds of carbohydrate chips. Clearly, the results show that the predicted lectin selectively binds to the carbohydrates, which demonstrates the applicability of the approach. Furthermore, the kinetics of the interactions between Con A and mannose, WGA and N-Acetylglucosamine were studied, respectively. This study provides an efficient approach to preparing carbohydrate chips based on PDA for the lectin–carbohydrate interactions study.

Background: Microreactor devices have attracted increasing attention over the last years due to their high surface-to-volume ratio which ensures a high heat and mass transfer, short molecular diffusion distance and greater spatial illumination homogeneity compared to traditional reactors. Objective: The aim of this study was to model the kinetics of photodegradation of 2-propanol over TiO2-based thin films in a gas-phase batch-reactor and simulate their performance in a microreactor device. Methods: The reaction was carried out in a gas-phase batch-reactor assessing the reactivity of a single-layer nitrogen (N)-doped TiO2 and a bilayer consisting of N-doped TiO2 as a bottom layer and copper (Cu)-doped TiO2 as a top layer. The kinetics of the photocatalytic process was modelled by Langmuir–Hinshelwood (LH) model. The constants obtained from LH model were used to simulate the performance of the photocatalysts in a microreactor operating in a continuous flow mode and investigating the effect of the volumetric flow rate (Q), initial concentration of pollutant (Co), number of microchannels (n) and microchannel length (l) on the photodegradation of 2-propanol. Results: N-Cu-TiO2 exhibited a higher reactivity but a lower to adsorption ability towards the target pollutant compared to N-TiO2. To maximize and leverage the advantages of microreactor, optimal operating conditions for a continuous flow mode, at steady state, should be moderately low Q and Co, long l and moderate n that minimizes flow maldistribution in parallel. Conclusion: The findings in this work could serve as a basis to design and fabricate efficient microreactors for the removal of VOC in air purification applications.
