Abstract:

AbstractFly ash (FA) and Basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag were used to as additives in the geopolymerisation of gold mine tailings (GMT).The aim of the research was to determine the effects of the two additives on the strength formation and mechanism of metal immobilisation by modified GMT geopolymers. GMT, FA and BOF were mixed, respectively, and made into a paste with the addition of potassium hydroxide (KOH) before curing at various conditions. 50% replacement of GMT in the starting materials gave the highest unconfined compressive strength (UCS). The UCS for BOF-based geopolymer was 21.44 Mega Pascals (MPa), whilst the one for FA-based geopolymer was 12.98 MPa. The BOF-based geopolymer cured at lower temperature (70 °C) as compared to the FA-based geopolymer (90 °C). The optimum KOH concentration was 10 and 15 M for BOF- and FA-based geopolymers, respectively. BOF-based geopolymers resulted in the formation of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) phases which contributed to higher strength; whereas in FA-based geopolymers, no new structures were formed. BOF-based geopolymers resulted in over 94% iron (Fe) immobilisation, whereas FA-based geopolymers had 76% Fe immobilisation. Fe immobilisation was via incorporation into the CSH or geopolymer structure, whilst other metal immobilisations were thought to be via encapsulation. 12-month static leaching tests showed that the synthesised geopolymers posed insignificant environmental pollution threat for long-term use.

Abstract:

To date no problem-free method exists for the immobilisation of free‑ranging walruses (Odobenus rosmarus). In the period 1989-2001, 69 immobilisations with etorphine HCl were performed by remote darting of 41 individual free-ranging adult Atlantic walruses (O. r. rosmarus), with body masses 633 ‑ 1883 kg, as a rerequisite for the attachment of radio tracking and dive recording instruments, and for studies of metabolism. Ten individuals were immobilised several times. We present data on these 69 immobilisations and evaluate the method. Full immobilisation was achieved in 58 cases (84 %). The animals were insufficiently restrained in 6 cases (9 %) and 5 animals died (7 %) following the immobilisation. The animals were fully immobilised and approachable after 5 min (n = 38, range = 1.9 ‑ 12.4 min, SD = 2.2) with a dose of etorphine of 6.1 μg/kg (range 2.4 ‑ 12.6 μg /kg, SD = 2.4). Induction time was negatively correlated with the dosage of etorphine. Etorphine-induced apnoea lasted 13.7 min (n = 36, range 17.0 ‑ 26.7 min, SD = 5.1) and was reversed by multiple doses of the antagonist diprenorphine HCl. The first dose of antagonist of 12.2 mg (n = 39, range 6.0 ‑ 21.0 mg, SD = 3.5) was administered 8.4 min (n = 38, range 4.7 ‑ 18.0 min, SD = 2.8) after injection of the agonist. The total dose of diprenorphine per animal ranged between 7.7 and 41.7 μg/kg (n = 31, mean = 17.2 μg/kg, SD = 7.5). For some animals blood pH values were measured following the apnoea and reached low levels (min pH 6.8). For animals that were immobilised several times there were no indications of changed sensitivity to etorphine as reflected in unchanged induction times. Mortalities could neither be related to the doses of agonist and antagonist, nor to the times of administration of the drugs. From this (n = 69) and other (n = 103) studies involving etorphine immobilisation of walruses (both Atlantic and Pacific) the overall success rate is 83 % (8 % casualty rate). We conclude that the combination etorphine‑ diprenorphine is suitable for both single and multiple immobilisations of walruses provided that (a) a casualty rate of 7-8% is acceptable (b) the antagonist diprenorphine is administered fast and well into a tissue with good blood irrigation, and (c) the animal is promptly intubated endotracheally to facilitate the restoration of breathing after drug-induced apnoea.

Abstract:

One of the highest occurrences of mortalities among giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis) takes place during immobilisations, captures and translocations. Common mistakes, human error, unforeseen risks, the awkward anatomy and the sheer size of the animal are leading factors for giraffes’ mortalities during these operations. Many risks can be circumvented but some risks are unpreventable, often due to terrain characteristics (rivers, deep ditches, holes and rocky terrain). From 2011 to 2021, seventy-five giraffes were successfully immobilised and captured to collect biological and physiological data from eight different study areas across South Africa. A 0% mortality and injury rate was achieved and, therefore, the techniques described in this paper are testimony to the advances and improvements of capture techniques and drugs. Biological information and capture experiences were noted for 75 immobilised giraffes, of which, knockdown time data were recorded for 43 individuals. Effective and safe immobilisation requires a competent team, proper planning, skill and knowledge. In this manuscript, we address procedures, techniques, ethical compliance, welfare and safety of the study animals. General experiences and lessons learned are also shared and should benefit future captures and immobilisations by limiting the risks involved. The sharing of experiences and information could influence and improve critical assessments of different capture techniques and can likely contribute to the success rate of immobilisation and translocation success for giraffes in the future.

Abstract:

Objectives To assess whether different cervical spine immobilisation strategies (full immobilisation, movement minimisation or no immobilisation), impact neurological and/or other outcomes for patients with suspected cervical spinal injury in the pre-hospital and emergency department setting. Design Systematic review following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Data sources MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Library and two research registers were searched until September 2023. Eligibility criteria All comparative studies (prospective or retrospective) that examined the potential benefits and/or harms of immobilisation practices during pre-hospital and emergency care of patients with a potential cervical spine injury (pre-imaging) following blunt trauma. Data extraction and synthesis Two authors independently selected and extracted data. Risk of bias was appraised using the Cochrane ROBINS-I tool for non-randomised studies. Data were synthesised without meta-analysis. Results Six observational studies met the inclusion criteria. The methodological quality was variable, with most studies having serious or critical risk of bias. The effect of cervical spine immobilisation practices such as full immobilisation or movement minimisation during pre-hospital and emergency care did not show clear evidence of benefit for the prevention of neurological deterioration, spinal injuries and death compared with no immobilisation. However, increased pain, discomfort and anatomical complications were associated with collar application during immobilisation. Conclusions Despite the limited evidence, weak designs and limited generalisability, the available data suggest that pre-hospital cervical spine immobilisation (full immobilisation or movement minimisation) was of uncertain value due to the lack of demonstrable benefit and may lead to potential complications and adverse outcomes. High-quality randomised comparative studies are required to address this important question.

Abstract:

AbstractPurpose: To determine the optimal of three immobilisation devices for lung radiotherapy in terms of set-up reproducibility, patient comfort, radiation therapists’ (RTs) satisfaction and cost-effectiveness.Materials and methods: A total of 30 lung CRT patients were randomised to one of three immobilisation techniques – Arm A, headsponge; Arm B, BreastBoard dedicated immobilisation device; and Arm C, LungBoard dedicated immobilisation device.Results: Random errors were larger for Arm A versus C in all directions (p < 0.05). Random errors were larger for Arm A versus B for y and z directions (p < 0.05). When the data for the immobilisation devices (Arms B+C) were pooled and compared with Arm A (no dedicated device), the systematic errors were larger in the z direction for A (p < 0.05). Arm C was cheaper and was more comfortable for patients. Therapists preferred this device (Arm C) and treatment times were less (p < 0.05).Conclusion: This is the first prospective randomised controlled lung immobilisation trial, based on 3-DCRT, that takes into account treatment accuracy, users satisfaction and resource implications. It suggests that the LungBoard immobilisation device is optimal.

Abstract:

Previously published reports have shown good results after proximal row carpectomy in all cases that had a postoperative immobilisation period from 1 to 4 weeks. Immobilisation is thought to be necessary because of the risk of postoperative subluxation of the carpus and for pain relief. There is, however, no evidence of its value. The results in 13 patients who underwent proximal row carpectomy without postoperative immobilisation were compared with those in 25 patients who underwent proximal row carpectomy with postoperative immobilisation for 4 weeks. After a mean follow-up period of 27 months, no significant differences were found for pain, range of motion or return to work between the two groups. We conclude that postoperative immobilisation is not necessary after proximal row carpectomy.

Abstract:

Afin d'améliorer les performances de trousses de dosages biologiques, basées sur des méthodes radioimmunométriques, des immunophases constituées de polypropylène ont été modifiées par voie chimique et par divers traitements par plasma froid. Des anticorps spécifiques peuvent être couples à ces phases solides ainsi modifiées. En effet, les trousses actuellement commercialisées sont obtenues par adsorption simple des anticorps à la surface des phases polymères. Le but de ce travail est donc de créer des fonctions chimiques modifiables afin d'accroitre les possibilités d'interactions spécifiques entre le support polymère et l'anticorps. Le principe de ces dosages immunométriques est base sur la formation d'un complexe mixte anticorps immobilise, antigène à doser, anticorps marque permettant le dosage. Il est donc souhaitable de réaliser l'immobilisation du premier anticorps par son fragment cristallisable FC afin de laisser libre sa partie active. Pour cela deux voies d'approches ont été étudiées. D'une part, la fixation des anticorps a été réalisée sur des surfaces activées en utilisant des agents de couplage afin d'obtenir une fixation covalente à la surface du polymère. D'autre part, ces anticorps ont été adsorbes par l'intermédiaire du fragment FC sur des surfaces rendues plus hydrophobes. En outre, les modifications chimiques et physico-chimiques réalisées permettent de modifier de façon notable les propriétés de surface du matériau. Cela nous a conduits à déterminer l'influence des caractéristiques de surface sur les mécanismes d'interactions conduisant à l'immobilisation des anticorps

Abstract:

The current UK strategy for radioactive waste management is to permanently store the waste in an underground repository. Final disposal of the radwaste may then be preceded by chemical conditioning and physical encapsulation. The objective of this work was to determine the extent of actinide immobilisation in cement. Since actinides are hazardous and costly to study directly, a chemical analogue approach to studying actinide immobilisation was adopted. Th(IV), Ce(III, IV) and Eu(III) were chosen as actinide simulants and their suitability assessed by a critical review of the literature. Ca(OH)₂ and C-S-H dominate the observed chemical properties of the aqueous phase in cement. As they are of such importance, it was these cement components which were used to investigate the reaction of the simulant elements with cement. The phases found to be predicted were ThO₂, ThSiO₄, Eu(OH)₃, Ca₂Eu₈(SiO₄)₆O₂, CeO₂, CeSiO₄ and Ca₂(SiO₄)₆O₂. CeSiO₄ and Ca₂Ce₈(SiO₄)O₂ are newly reported phases, produced by hydrothermal synthesis. Rietveld refinement confirmed CeSiO₄ to have the zircon structure, with space group 14₁/amd and cell parameters a = 6.9564(3) A, c = 6.1953 (4) A. Ca₂Ce₈(SiO₄)₆O₂ exhibits the apatite structure, with space group P6₃/m and cell parameters a = 9.4343(3) a, c = 6.8885(4) A. Preliminary solubility studies were carried out on all of the solubility-limiting phases. Phase impurity, poor crystallinity and incongruent solubility of phases hindered the generation of solubility product data. Nevertheless, these phases have naturally occurring analogues which are known to be environmentally stable and have low solubilities. On the basis of the experimental results obtained, it may be concluded that cement has the potential to be a very effective immobilisation matrix for actinide elements. Recommendations for future experiments using active elements are discussed.

Abstract:

National Nuclear Laboratory, in collaboration with the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, is developing hot isostatic press (HIP) based ceramic technology for the immobilisation of a diverse range of wastes arising from nuclear fuel processing activities on the Sellafield site. Wasteform compositions have been identified and validated for the immobilisation of these plutonium containing wastes and residues in glass-ceramic and ceramic forms. A full scale inactive facility has been constructed at NNL’s Workington Laboratory to support the demonstration of the technology. Validation of the inactive wasteform development using plutonium has been carried out at ANSTO’s Lucas Heights facility. A feasibility study has been conducted to evaluate the construction and operation of a plutonium active pilot facility which would demonstrate the immobilisation of actual residues in the NNL Central Lab. This could form the basis of a facility to treat the plutonium wastes and residues in their entirety. The technology is being explored for the immobilisation of additional wastes arising on the Sellafield site taking advantage of the investment already made in skills and facilities.

Abstract:

Methods for the synthesis of ceramic wasteforms for the immobilization of actinides are common to those for non-radioactive ceramics: hot uniaxial pressing (HUP); hot isostatic pressing (HIP); cold pressing followed by sintering; melting (for some specific ceramics, such as garnet/perovskite composites). Synthesis of ceramics doped with radionuclides is characterized with some important considerations: all the radionuclides should be incorporated into crystalline structure of durable host-phases in the form of solid solutions and no separate phases of radionuclides should be present in the matrix of final ceramic wasteform; all procedures of starting precursor preparation and ceramic synthesis should follow safety requirements of nuclear industry. Synthesis methods that avoid the use of very high temperatures and pressures and are easily accomplished within the environment of a glove-box or hot cell are preferable. Knowledge transfer between the V. G. Khlopin Radium Institute (KRI, Russia) and Immobilisation Science Laboratory (ISL, UK) was facilitated in the framework of a joint project supported by UK Royal Society. In order to introduce methods of precursor preparation and ceramic synthesis we selected well-known procedures readily deployable in radiochemical processing plants. We accounted that training should include main types of ceramic wasteforms which are currently discussed for industrial applications.

Abstract:

The immobilisation of organic liquids in cement products can often be difficult when attempts are made to achieve high waste loading. In this work, diethylhexyl phosphoric acid (DEHPA) contaminated with minor amounts of U (1400 ppm), Th (100 ppm) and rare earth elements (17,900 ppm) arising from solvent extraction technology for rare earth extraction from monazite shows promise of immobilisation in ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Waste loadings of up to 50% (v/v) have been achieved at the laboratory scale. The product was allowed to set overnight and had reasonable resistance to leaching after exposure to deionised water (DIW) at 25°C. Centimetre-sized samples released <0.1% of the rare earth and U inventories after exposure to 100 ml of DIW for 7 days. Releases of Ca, Al and Si were comparable with those from DEHPA free OPC. Samples were examined by SEM to determine elemental distribution and assess the porosity. Compressive strengths and detailed leaching behaviour of sample bodies over the temperature range between 25 °C and 50 °C will be presented. Preliminary attempts with geopolymeric materials were less successful than those using cement. The relative merits of immobilisation in cement compared with other possible means of dealing with the contaminated DEHPA are discussed.
