Abstract:
A retrospective review was undertaken of 287 unnatural deaths undergoing medicolegal investigation over a 10-year period from January 2008 to December 2017 in Rio Grande, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. There were 219 males and 68 females, age range 7 months to 88 years (average 38.4 years). The 135 accidental deaths (47%) were due mainly to vehicle crashes ( N = 62) and carbon monoxide toxicity from fires ( N = 31). The 115 cases of suicides (40.1%) were predominantly due to hanging ( N = 75) and gunshot wounds ( N = 20). The 37 cases of homicide (12.9%) were mainly due to stabbing/sharp force injury ( N = 20) and blunt force trauma ( N = 9). Carbon monoxide toxicity from faulty heating accounted for a substantial percentage (8.1%) of the accidental deaths. Firearm homicides and suicides related to drug toxicity and carbon monoxide inhalation were relatively uncommon medicolegal cases in this centre.

Abstract:
Despite the unbounded and undeniable advantages of manufacturing, affiliated negative externalities, such as environmental pollution, cannot be overlooked. Our article aims to focus on the current interdependence between the selected economic and environmental aspects in related manufacturing enterprises in Slovakia. We focused on analysing the relationship between carbon monoxide emissions from the largest polluters of the Slovak Republic and relevant sales. The data were taken from 83 enterprises from the Slovak Republic. Environmental and economic data were comprehensive during 2014–2019; therefore, this paper focuses on this period. Among the substantial results, we identified that carbon monoxide production from Slovak production companies was almost unchanged from 2014 to 2019, with only minimal deviations. Based on the results, we created an environmental ratio indicator as an appropriate tool for managers for their decision-making process to achieve the enterprise’s sustainability goals.

Abstract:
Relevance. Current operation time limits under hazardous chemical conditions (“emergency regulations”) have been developed mainly for a limited number of emergency situations occurring in spacecraft, submarines or other specific objects. At the same time, many emergencies accompanied by large-scale releases of toxic combustion products from various materials and compounds into the environment are not limited to these facilities. Therefore, risks associated with toxic effects of chemicals should be predicted, since permissible time limits with adequate performance of personnel under certain chemical exposures are used for individual protection (time-based protection).Intention: On the basis of physiological aspects, the peculiarities of the work performed by rescuers and the requirements for organizing and conducting emergency rescue operations, to propose a methodical approach to determining the permissible time for rescuers in conditions of intermittent carbon monoxide release.Methodology. The scientific works and results of experiments in the research area were analyzed. Systematization and generalization of empirical and theoretical data, traditional analysis of documents and publications were used with the least squares approximation.Results and Discussion. Specific effects of various carbon monoxide concentrations are shown for different exposure times. Critical concentrations and exposure times are revealed, functional relationships between permissible time of operation and carbon monoxide concentrations are determined. Carboxyhemoglobin formation and effects were taken into account.Conclusion. The data given in the article are an important basis for organizing and conducting emergency rescue operations at increased concentrations of carbon monoxide.

Abstract:
Safe and healthy housing conditions are critical to improving population health, particularly for the most vulnerable – young children, senior citizens, and individuals with chronic illnesses and disabilities – who spend more time at home and are more susceptible to illness and injury. Across the country, millions of Americans are exposed to lead, radon, asbestos, volatile organic compounds, pests, mold, carbon monoxide, and tobacco smoke in the home, affecting the air they breathe and the water they drink. These household hazards are also associated with a wide range of illnesses and injuries, including asthma, cancer, falls, respiratory infections, and mental health issues. Legal and policy interventions can assist communities grappling with the adverse impacts of poor housing conditions and improve the health and safety of all residents, including vulnerable populations.

Abstract:
Background: The act of extinguishing, saving, and later relighting unfinished cigarettes is a common yet understudied behavior that may have implications for tobacco treatment and health. Methods: This paper presents four pilot studies investigating various aspects of this topic: (1) the prevalence of relighting among NJ and NY Quitline callers (n = 20,984); (2) the prevalence and correlates of relighting in two national surveys (n = 1008, n = 1018); (3) a within-subject (n = 16) laboratory experiment comparing cigarettes smoked per day and exhaled carbon monoxide when relighting and not relighting cigarettes; and (4) a national survey of tobacco treatment providers’ (n = 150) perceptions of relighting. Results: Relighting was found to be common (approximately 45% of smokers), and associated with lower socioeconomic status, heavier smoking and nicotine dependence, greater smoking-related concerns, as well as high levels of exhaled carbon monoxide. Providers noted the potential importance of relighting but reported that they do not regularly incorporate it into their assessment or tobacco treatment planning. Conclusions: These findings address a major research gap in the emerging research on this common behavior. Future research is needed to better understand the potential implications of relighting for policies and clinical practices related to tobacco cessation and health.

Abstract:
Recent works have demonstrated that particulate matter (PM) and specific meteorological conditions played an important role in the airborne transmission of the SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV. These studies suggest that these parameters could influence the transmission of SARS-CoV-2. In the present investigation, we sought to investigate the association between air pollution, meteorological data, and the Lombardy region COVID-19 outbreak caused by SARS-CoV-2. We considered the number of detected infected people at the regional and provincial scale from February to March 2020. Air pollution data were collected over the Lombardy region, nominally, sulphur dioxide, ammonia, nitrogen dioxide, nitrogen monoxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, and suspended particulate matter measuring less than 10 μm (PM10) and less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5). Meteorological data have been collected over the same region for temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed. In this work, we evaluated the combined impact of environmental pollutants and climate conditions on the COVID-19 outbreak. The analysis evidenced a positive correlation between spatial distribution of COVID-19 infection cases with high concentrations of suspended particulate matter and a negative relationship with ozone. Moreover, suspended particulate matter concentration peaks in February correlated positively with infection peaks according to the virus incubation period. The obtained results suggested that seasonal weather conditions and concentration of air pollutants seemed to influence COVID-19 epidemics in Lombardy region.

Abstract:
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a major public health issue in the United States that accounts for approximately 50% of poisoning cases in the nation each year and around 50,000 emergency room visits. In most instances of CO poisoning, the culprit is a malfunctioning or poorly tended heating system within the home or, occasionally, commercial building, which causes the system to leak this hazardous gas. One of the more insidious aspects of CO poisoning is that the gas is odorless and colorless, and victims of CO poisoning often do not realize that there is a problem until they begin to experience the effects of poisoning and have no choice but to seek medical attention. Unfortunately, many victims of CO poisoning die before they are able to seek treatment. This paper makes use of a qualitative, systematic literature review to examine the four major parts of the brain that are most severely affected by CO poisoning. Overall, the literature review showed that the white matter, globus pallidus, basal ganglia, and cortex are the parts of the brain most severely impacted by CO poisoning. While many CO poisoning victims do make it to the hospital on time and are treated, they may nonetheless suffer long-term neurological consequences as a result of their exposure. As such, CO poisoning is a major public health issue.

Abstract:
Synthesis gas (syngas), which primarily consists of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2), is a versatile energy carrier that can be converted to gaseous and liquid fuels or can be used for electricity production. This study was focused on MFC design improvements for performance enhancement on CO/syngas and elucidation of microbial communities, and biotransformation pathways involved in electricity production from CO/syngas in an MFC. One of the primary challenges for an efficient bioconversion of CO and syngas is the low solubility of these gaseous substrates in the aqueous phase. The first study of this thesis demonstrated the applicability of silicone membrane systems for improved CO transfer into the anodic liquid of MFCs. The incorporation of flat silicone membrane and thin wall silicone tubing into the anodic chamber of CO-fed MFCs led to improved CO transformation efficiency and correspondingly improved MFC performance. A CO transformation efficiency of 77 % and maximum power output of 18 mW/L (normalized to anodic compartment volume) was achieved for silicone membrane installed MFC. A comparably higher CO transformation efficiency of 98 % was obtained for silicone tubing installed MFC, but the high dissolved CO concentrations in the anodic liquid partially inhibited the microbial activity, thereby lowering the maximum power output to 13 mW/L. Efficient gas transfer also allowed for focusing on the process microbiology. The microbial communities and biotransformation pathways prevalent in two mesophilic CO-fed MFCs were elucidated in the second study. The identification of the microorganisms belonging to the genera Geobacter, Desulfovibrio, and Clostridium, along with the detection of acetate as the primary metabolic product in both MFCs; affirmed our hypothesis that electricity production from CO/syngas in a mesophilic MFC is primarily accomplished by a two-step process, where CO/syngas is first converted to acetate by homo-acetogenic and carboxdotrophic microorganisms, and the acetate is then utilized by CO-tolerant acetate oxidizing electricigenic microorganisms. The bioconversion of CO/syngas to electricity in an MFC was also tested at thermophilic temperature of 50°C. Silicone tubing was used for syngas delivery and the anodic design was improved to increase the microbial density. An improved volumetric power output of 33-35 mW/L and syngas conversion efficiency of 87-98 % was achieved. Also an improved Coulombic efficiency (CE) of 26 % was obtained. The analysis of the anodic microbial communities and metabolic products, along with single substrate tests where MFC was operated solely on CO or H2, revealed that similar to mesophilic MFCs electricity generation from syngas at thermophilic temperatures also occurred through syngas conversion to acetate followed by its oxidation by CO-tolerant electricigenic microorganisms. In the final study of this thesis, the applicability of a multi-electrode design containing three anodes and two cathodes to achieve high volumetric power output and CE on syngas was evaluated at several operating temperatures ranging from 37°C to 50°C. Also, the impact of different anode-cathode arrangements on power output was examined. The multi-electrode configuration considerably enhanced the system performance and provided a compact system design which could have major economic and operational implications for large scale syngas-fed MFC systems. A maximum power density of 33 mW/L and CE of 43 % was achieved at an operating temperature of 37°C. The MFC power density was greatly impacted by the anode-cathode arrangement and the highest power density was achieved in a three anode-two cathode (3A-2C) arrangement.
Composé principalement de monoxyde de carbone (CO) et d'hydrogène (H2), le gaz de synthèse est un vecteur énergétique polyvalent, qui peut être converti en un combustible liquide ou gazeux ou peut servir à la production d'électricité. La capacité du CO ou de gaz de synthèse à servir comme unique donneur d'électrons dans la production d'électricité dans une pile à combustible microbienne (PCM) ayant été récemment démontrée, la présente étude visa l'obtention d'un gain d'éfficacité de production, avec soit du CO ou du gaz de synthèse comme combustible, grâce à un aménagement amélioré de la PCM. L'étude visa aussi à élucider les communautés microbiennes et voies de biotransformation liées à la production d'électricité à partir de CO ou de gaz de synthèse dans une PCM.Un des principaux défis à une hausse d'efficacité de bioconversion de CO ou de gaz de synthèse est la faible solubilité en phase aqueuse de ces substrats gazeux. Le premier volet de ce travail démontra l'applicabilité de systèmes à membrane de silicone pour réaliser un transfert accru de CO vers l'anode liquide du PCM. L'intégration d'une membrane plane en silicone ou de tube en silicone à parois minces dans la chambre anodique d'une PCM alimentée en CO, a permis d'atteindre une éfficacité de transformation de CO accrue, et par conséquente une performance améliorée de la PCM. Une efficacité de transformation de CO de 77% et une puissance maximale de 18 mW/L furent obtenues pour une PCM équipée d'une membrane en silicone. Une efficacité de transformation de CO comparativement plus élevée (98%) fut obtenue pour une PCM équipée de tube en silicone à parois minces, mais la concentration éleve de CO dissoute dans le liquide anodique enraya en partie l'activité microbienne, baissant ainsi la puissance maximale à 13 mW/L . Un transfer gazeux efficace permetta de mettre l'accent sur le processus microbiologique. En un second volet, les communautés microbiennes et voies de biotransformation prévalentes dans deux PCM mésophiliques alimentées en CO furent élucidés. L'identification de microorganismes appartenants aux genres Geobacter, Desulfovibrio, et Clostridium, ainsi que la détection d'acétate comme principal produit métabolique dans les deux PCM, confirma notre hypothèse que la production d'électricité à partir de CO ou de gaz de synthèse dans une PCM mésophilique s'opère principalement en deux étapes: (i) le CO ou gaz de synthèse est premièrement converti en acétate par des carboxydobactéries et bactéries homoacétogéniques, puis (ii) l'acétate est oxydé par des microorganismes électrigènes tolérants au CO. Le gaz de synthèse étant principalement un gaz chaud, la bioconversion de CO ou de gaz de synthèse dans une PCM fut évalue sous des condition thermophiles à 50°C. Une puissance volumétrique accrue (33-35 mW/L) et une éfficacité de conversion de gaz de synthèse de 87-98% furent atteintes. De plus une efficacité coulombienne (EC) de 26% fut atteinte. Dans le dernier volet de cette étude, la faisabilité d'une configuration à multiples électrodes visant à permettre des PCMs consommant du gaz de synthèse à obtenir une puissance volumétrique et une EC accrue, fut évaluée à des températures de 37°C à 50°C. L'influence de la position dans laquelle les anodes et cathodes furent disposées sur la puissance générée fut évalue. Une densité de puissance maximale de 33 mW/L et une CE de 43 % furent atteintes à une température de fonctionnement de 37 °C. La densité de puissance d'une PCM fut largement influencée par la disposition et le nombre des anodes de cathodes. Un arrangement trois anodes-deux cathodes (3A-2C) offrant la plus grande puissance.

Abstract:
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that binds to hemoglobin with high affinity. This property underlies the use of low doses of CO to determine hemoglobin mass (MHb) in the fields of clinical and sports medicine. However, hemoglobin bound to CO is unable to transport oxygen and exposure to high CO concentrations is a significant environmental and occupational health concern. These contrasting aspects of CO—clinically useful in low doses but potentially lethal in higher doses—mandates a need for a quantitative understanding of the temporal profiles of the uptake and distribution of CO in the human body. In this dissertation I have (i) used a mathematical model to analyze CO-rebreathing techniques used to estimate total hemoglobin mass and proposed a CO-rebreathing procedure to estimate hemoglobin mass with low errors, (ii) enhanced and validated a multicompartment model to estimate O2, CO and CO2 tensions, bicarbonate levels, pH levels, blood carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO) levels, and carboxymyoglobin (MbCO) levels in all the vascular (arterial, mixed venous and vascular subcompartments of the tissues) and tissue (brain, heart and skeletal muscle) compartments of the model in normoxia, hypoxia, CO hypoxia, hyperoxia, isocapnic hyperoxia and hyperbaric oxygen, and (iii) used this developed mathematical model to propose a treatment to improve O2 delivery and CO removal by comparing O2 and CO levels during different treatment protocols administered for otherwise-healthy CO-poisoned subjects.

Abstract:
Household fuel pollution from the use of low quality biomass fuels is considered as a risk factor for respiratory tract infections (RTI) in women and children. Inhalation of fuel-derived pulmonary toxins (e.g. particulate matter (PM2.5μm) , and carbon monoxide (CO) can harm the lungs of young children, due to their under-developed immune defences. In Bangladesh acute respiratory infections (ARI) are the leading cause of child mortality (< 5 years of age). This thesis aimed to examine the relationship between RTI and household fuel pollution exposure using measured pollution data and medical diagnoses. During an 18-month longitudinal health intervention in northern Bangladesh households (n=408) were interviewed (3 times) on cooking/fuel-use practices and child health. Anthropometric data (height/weight) and finger-prick blood samples for analysis of immune status (c-reactive protein, alpha-1-acidglycoprotein (AGP) and albumin) were collected (n=321 < 5 years of age). All unwell children (62.4%) were medically examined. Household pollution levels (particulate matter (PM2.5μm) and carbon monoxide (CO) were monitored for a 24-hour period (n=61). Moderate/ severe RTI was common (24.8%) (youngest child only n=213). Poor child growth (stunted: 43.8%, underweight=66.7%, wasted: 38.4%) and immunity were detected. 98% of the households used inefficient chimneyless mud stoves and low quality biomass fuels (wood, golden, dung). The measured indoor pollution levels exceeded the WHO safety thresholds (PM2.5 μm range: 85 to 3020 μg/m³ CO range: 0-16 ppm) (PM2.5 μm>25 μm/m³, CO>9ppm). Longitudinal multivariate GLM showed that cooking practices were associated with child immune status: haemoglobin levels (F= 1.555, p=NS) were significantly associated with Bihari ethnicity and a fixed stove use (F=3.718 and F=3.716, p<0.05 respectively). Elevated log₁₀-AGP levels were found (F=4.371, p<0.05) in Saidpur in households using a fixed stove (F=4.123, F=3.780, p<0.05). The patterns in child growth z-scores were due to age only (stunting: F=7.413, p<0.01, underweight F=5.787, p<0.05). Interestingly, poorer change score for weight-for-age (F=34.893, p<0.01) was associated with low age and more frequent cooking (F=6.441 and, F=6.553, p<0.05 respectively). Logistic regression (healthy vs. RTI) identified the presence of child by the stove during cooking as the sole risk factor for RTI (absent OR= 0.257, 95% CI: 0.097 - 0.676, p<0.01). Indoor cooking and the use of a fixed stove were associated with low SES. Education may help to reduce behaviours associated with high household fuel pollution exposure via the introduction of simple healthy cooking practices.

Abstract:
The NHS has to meet the Climate Change Act targets of an 80% reduction to their carbon emissions by 2050. Investigation into the components of the carbon footprint of mental health care is needed to understand how services can meet these targets. This thesis first seeks to understand what is known about the carbon footprint of mental health care through two systematic reviews and two national surveys. Second, existing methodologies for estimating carbon footprints are examined to assess whether an approach is available that is ‘fit for purpose’ in mental health care. The approach needs to be applied feasibly within a clinical context and the results need to be sufficiently robust to reliably inform decisions about service design. The aim of this research is to provide an approach that service providers can use to estimate the carbon footprint of services and then use the information obtained to inform service design. This thesis defines the boundaries of assessment to ensure a consistent approach. It suggests an approach to data collection that includes financial and activity data. It presents a review of the available methods for converting this data to carbon equivalents and finds a potential five-fold range associated with carbon footprint estimates of medication. The approach developed within this study is termed the combined approach. The combined approach is then evaluated using a scenario analysis, a four-year retrospective cohort analysis and a prospective care modelling analysis to assess whether it is fit for purpose according to specified criteria. It is concluded that the combined approach is fit for the purpose of assessing how the carbon footprint of a service changes over time. However, due to the use of financial data and the problems with estimating the carbon footprint of medication, this approach has significant weaknesses, which limits its wider use.

Abstract:
This study compared the effect of packaging method (0.4% carbon monoxide, 80% oxygen or vacuum), storage time (7, 14 and 21 days) and internal cooking temperature 49, 57, 66, 71 and 79°C) on color and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values of top sirloin steaks and ground beef patties. Ground beef was obtained from 3 different sources (chuck, loin and trim). All samples were stored at 2°C for 7, 14 and 21 days. All raw ground beef samples stored in 0.4% carbon monoxide remained bright red throughout the 21-day storage period. The phenomenon of premature browning (appearance of cooked color at lower than normal cooking temperatures) was observed in samples stored in high oxygen. TBA values were highest for the samples stored in 80% oxygen. Internal a* redness values were lowest for samples stored in 80% oxygen. Percent myogobin denaturation (PMD) increased with increase in internal cooking temperature and was highest for the ground beef samples stored in 80% oxygen. The a* redness values were highest for raw steaks stored in 0.4% CO. Steaks stored in vacuum had a uniform purple color, but some browning was noticed on the surface of the samples by day 14. PMD and TBA values of cooked top sirloin steaks were highest for the samples stored in 80% oxygen This study confirms that high oxygen packaging promotes rancidity in ground beef and top sirloin steaks. Packaging in 0.4% carbon monoxide helps maintain a bright cherry red color in ground beef and top sirloin steaks for up to 21 days.

Connor, Andrew. "The use of carbon footprinting studies to determine the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the provision of aspects of renal healthcare within the National Health Service." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2011. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/46923/.

Full text
Abstract:
Climate change presents a major threat to global health and will further exacerbate the health inequalities that exist internationally. However, the provision of healthcare results in considerable greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and is therefore contributing to climate change itself. Meanwhile, the integration of strategies to address climate change into global health efforts will realise health co-benefits. Meeting the challenging carbon reduction targets set within the NHS will require an improved understanding of the GHG emissions association with different forms of healthcare. This thesis explores the environmental impact of the provision of renal medicine services within the United Kingdom, placing a particular emphasis upon GHG emissions. The approach required, and the opportunities that exist, to reduce the environmental impact of renal medicine services are first explored through a review of the existing literature and a survey of the current practices of renal services in England, Scotland and Wales. A study, adhering to the principles of PAS2050, of the GHG emissions attributable to an individual renal service is then reported. This is the first assessment of the carbon footprint of an individual specialty service to include both direct and indirect GHG emissions. Consideration is given to how the results might inform carbon reduction strategies. Indicative carbon burdens for outpatient appointments and inpatient admissions are derived in order to facilitate future modelling of the emissions attributable to different clinical pathways of care. A second study, in which the GHG emissions attributable to different forms of an individual treatment (haemodialysis) are determined, is then presented. Finally, four case studies of good environmental practice within renal medicine, identified from the earlier literature search and survey, are presented in the context of the results of these studies.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews how satellite data can provide key information relevant to efforts to improve human health and wellbeing. It first discusses how satellite remote sensing can be used to track, predict, and manage vectorborne disease such as malaria, dengue fever, and trypanosomiasis. The second section of this chapter focuses on the use of satellite data to monitor air quality, looking at how satellites can help (1) track air pollution associated with the release of harmful substances into the atmosphere through human activities, such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs); (2) detect and forecast outbreaks of airborne substances that trigger an allergic reaction, such as pollen grains; (3) assess emissions from volcanic eruptions; and (4) monitor dust storms in space and time. The third part of this chapter explores how satellite data can be used to report on water quality, detailing how these data can be used to predict and manage harmful algae blooms and to study eutrophication. The fourth section addresses satellite remote sensing in the context of human wellbeing, highlighting how satellite data can be used to estimate economic welfare and poverty, and how this information can be used to test various hypotheses pertaining to the role of greenness in determining various aspects of our physical and mental health.

Abstract:
Market demands such as generating power at lower cost, increasing reliability, providing fuel flexibility, increasing efficiency and reducing emissions have renewed the interest in Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) plants in the Indian refinery segment. This technology typically uses coal or petroleum coke (petcoke) gasification and gas turbine based combined cycle systems as it offers potential advantages in reducing emissions and producing low cost electricity. Gasification of coal typically produces syngas which is a mixture of Hydrogen (H) and Carbon Monoxide (CO). Present state of gas turbine technology facilitates burning of low calorific fuels such as syngas and gas turbine is the heart of power block in IGCC. Selecting a suitable gas turbine for syngas fired power plant application and optimization in integration can offer the purchaser savings in initial cost by avoiding oversizing as well as reduction in operating cost through better efficiency. This paper discusses the following aspects of syngas turbine IGCC power plant: • Considerations in design and engineering approach • Review of technologies in syngas fired gas turbines • Design differences of syngas turbines with respect to natural gas fired turbines • Gas turbine integration with gasifier, associated syngas system design and materials • Syngas safety, HAZOP and Hazardous area classification • Retrofitting of existing gas turbines suitable for syngas firing • Project execution and coordination at various phases of a project This paper is based on the experience gained in the recently executed syngas fired gas turbine based captive power plant and IGCC plant. This experience would be useful for gas turbine technology selection, integration of gas turbine in to IGCC, estimating engineering efforts, cost savings, cycle time reduction, retrofits and lowering future syngas based power plant project risks.

Full text
Abstract:
Satisfactory performance of the gas turbine combustor relies on the careful design of various components, particularly the fuel injector. It is, therefore, essential to establish a fundamental basis for fuel injection modeling that involves various atomization processes. A 2-D fuel injection model has been formulated to simulate the airflow within and downstream of the atomizer and address the formation and breakup of the liquid sheet formed at the atomizer exit. The sheet breakup under the effects of airblast, fuel pressure, or the combined atomization mode of the air-assist type is considered in the calculation. The model accounts for secondary breakup of drops and the stochastic Lagrangian treatment of spray. The calculation of spray evaporation addresses both droplet heat-up and steady-state mechanisms, and fuel vapor concentration is based on partial pressure concept. An enhanced evaporation model has been developed that accounts for multicomponent, finite mass diffusivity and conductivity effects, and addresses near critical evaporation. The present investigation involved predictions of flow and spray characteristics of two distinctively different fuel atomizers under both nonreacting and reacting conditions. The predictions of the continuous phase velocity components and the spray mean drop sizes agree well with the detailed measurements obtained for the two atomizers, which indicates the model accounts for key aspects of atomization. The model also provides insight into ligament formation and breakup at the atomizer exit and the initial drop sizes formed in the atomizer near field region where measurements are difficult to obtain. The calculations of the reacting spray show the fuel rich region occupied most of the spray volume with two-peak radial gas temperature profiles. The results also provided local concentrations of unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) and carbon monoxide (CO) in atomizer flowfield, information that could support the effort to reduce emission levels of gas turbine combustors.

Abstract:
The increasing need of energy resources along with the growing environmental interest promote the creation of new concepts in the field of energy production and management strategies. The development of high temperature fuel cells, suitable for stationary energy production, is one of the most promising aspects, able to bring a significant change in the power generation scenario. One of the most important features for fuel cells is the potential coupling with advanced gasification systems, thus enabling the possibility of energy recovery from waste, RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel) and biomass. The gasification process transfers the energetic value of the original solid fuel to a gaseous product rich in hydrogen, carbon monoxide and dioxide, and other compounds. A post-gasification treatment removes tars, particulates, impurities and makes the gas suitable for power production in a fuel cell unit. In this work an example of an innovative plant for biomass utilization has been considered. The plant includes a gasification section and a Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell unit, coupled with a hot gas cleanup system. For gasification technology, a recent typology was considered involving an indirect heating system such as the Battelle process. Gaseous streams conveyed to the cell after the conditioning processes were considered. In order to achieve higher efficiencies, a bottoming cycle has been added. It comprises a turbine power plant integrated with the gasification and fuel cell lay-out. In the turbine cycle air is compressed in the operating pressure and internally heated by the waste heat of the fuel cell and of the gasification process. The expanded air is then used in the combustion reactor of the gasification system. The proposed plant allows high electric efficiency and high flexibility in choosing for air compression ratio and unit size; sensitivity analyses were performed.

Full text
Abstract:
Rocket engine exhaust plume is generally thermal in character arising from changes in the internal energy of constituent molecules. Radiation from the plume is attenuated in its passage through the atmosphere. In the visible and the infrared region of the spectrum for clear-sky conditions, this is caused mainly through absorption by atmospheric molecular species. The most important combustion-product molecules giving rise to emission in the IR are water vapor, carbon dioxide, and carbon monoxide. In addition, the high temperature plume reacting with the surrounding atmosphere may produce nitrogen oxides, in the boundary layer, all of which are strongly emitting molecules. Important absorbing species in the atmosphere in the engine plume environment are H2O, CO, CO2, CH4, N2O, NO, and NO2. Under normal atmospheric conditions, the concentrations of O3, SO2, and NH3 are too small to produce any significant absorption. Essentially the problem comprises of the propagation of radiation from a hot gas source through a long cool absorbing atmosphere thus combining aspects of atmospheric and combustion gas methods. Since many of the same molecular species are responsible for both emission and absorption, the high degree of line position correlation between the emission and absorption spectra precludes the decoupling of the optical path into isolated emitter and absorber regions and multiplying the source band radiance by the absorber band transmittance in order to arrive at the transmitted radiance spectrum. Also, very strong thermal gradients may be encountered. All this suggests that a layer-by-layer computation is called for. The pathlength through the plume and the atmosphere is assumed to go through a certain number of layers, each of which is considered to have all molecular species in local thermodynamic equilibrium at constant temperature and pressure within the layer. Radiative transfer problems can be visualized as a set of parallel layers orthogonal to the line of sight, each with an input radiance from the previous layer and an output radiance to the subsequent layer. The MODTRAN (MODerate resolution TRANsmission) code is ideally suited for layer-by-layer absorption/emission calculations for atmospheric molecular species. We have utilized MODTRAN 4.0 computer code, implemented on a Power Mac G3, for the radiance and transmittance computations. The MODTRAN code has been adapted for the engine plume radiance computations. If the plume composition and flowfield parameters such as the temperature and pressure values are known along the line of sight by means of the experimental measurements or (more likely) CFD simulations, one can compute the radiance from any plume with high degree of accuracy at any desired point in space. Emission and absorption characteristics of several atmospheric and combustion species have been studied and presented in this paper with reference to the rocket engine plume environments at the Stennis Space Center. In general transmittance losses can not be neglected for any pathlength of 2 m or more. We have also studied the effect of clouds, rain, and fog on the plume radiance/transmittance. The transmittance losses are severe if any of these occur along the line of sight. Preliminary results for the radiance from the exhaust plume of the space shuttle main engine are shown and discussed.

Abstract:
Various unicellular algae produce omega-3 (w3) very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLC-PUFA), which are rarely found in higher plants. In this research and other studies from our laboratories, it has been demonstrated that the marine unicellular alga Nannochloropsis (Eustigmatophyceae) can be used as a reliable and high quality source for the w3 VLC-PUFA eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). This alga is widely used in mariculture systems as the primary component of the artificial food chain in fish larvae production, mainly due to its high EPA content. Furthermore, w3 fatty acids are essential for humans as dietary supplements and may have therapeutic benefits. The goal of this research proposal was to understand the physiological and biochemical mechanisms which regulate the synthesis and accumulation of glycerolipids enriched with w3 VLC-PUFA in Nannochloropsis. The results of our studies demonstrate various aspects of lipid synthesis and its regulation in the alga: 1. Variations in lipid class composition imposed by various environmental conditions were determined with special emphasis on the relative abundance of the molecular species of triacylglycerol (TAG) and monogalactosyl diacylglycerol (MGDG). 2. The relationships between the cellular content of major glycerolipids (TAG and MGDG) and the enzymes involved in their synthesis were studied. The results suggested the importance of UDP-galactose diacylglycerol galactosyl (UDGT) in regulation of the cellular level of MGDG. In a current effort we have purified UDGT several hundredfold from Nannochloropsis. It is our aim to purify this enzyme to near homogeneity and to produce antibodies against this enzyme in order to provide the tools for elucidation of the biochemical mechanisms that regulate this enzyme and carbon allocation into galactolipids. 3. Our in vitro and in vivo labeling studies indicated the possibility that phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) are associated with desaturation of the structural lipids, whereas shorter chain saturated fatty acids are more likely to be incorporated into TAG. 4. Isolation of several putative mutants of Nannochloropsis which appear to have different lipid and fatty acid compositions than the wild type; a mutant of a special importance that is devoid of EPA was fully characterized. In addition, we could demonstrate the feasibility of Nannochloropsis biomass production for aquaculture and human health: 1) We demonstrated in semi-industrial scale the feasibility of mass production of Nannochloropsis biomass in collaboration with the algae plant NBT in Eilat; 2) Nutritional studies verified the importance algal w3 fatty acids for the development of rats and demonstrated that Nannochloropsis biomass fed to pregnant and lactating rats can benefit their offspring.
