The paper reports a study of the cause of defects in light structures and the toppling of a wall constructed on a fill material
rich in Ankara clay. Laboratory tests were carried out on vertical and horizontal samples from boreholes and a trial pit was
excavated near the damaged structures. The results showed that in the vicinity of the toppled wall, swelling pressures in
the horizontal direction were greater than those measured in the vertical direction. The swelling properties of the fill material
were higher than those of original Ankara clay as determined previously by other investigators, suggesting that breakdown
of the cementing bonds and a change in the fabric are the main factors affecting the swelling pressure of disturbed and compacted
expansive soils. The calculations to predict uplift showed a good agreement with the observations in the damaged structures.
It is concluded that swelling was the main cause of the damage to the light structures at the study site and resulted from
the highly expansive nature of the fill material, poor drainage, the semi-arid climate, poor construction methods and ineffective
precautions. Some recommendations for minimizing the effects of swelling at the study site are briefly outlined. 相似文献

A number of chlorophenols, namely 2-, 3-, and 4-chlorophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, have been decomposed in aqueous solution by using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizing agent under UV radiation emitted by a 400 W high-pressure mercury lamp in a thermostatted Pyrex-glass column photoreactor, and the organic-bound chlorine has been converted into the environmentally harmless inorganic chloride. For H2O2/chlorophenol mole ratios between 1: 1 and 16: 1, the photooxidation reaction approached pseudo-first order kinetics, and the rate constants increased with increasing ratio of the oxidant. A theoretical model for the degradation pathway is proposed. The fact that the reaction order was not simply unity could be attributed to the complex reaction sequence processing via a radical mechanism through colored intermediates possibly comprising hydroquinone, catechol and resorcinol. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Apples contain a large concentration of phenolic compounds, dependent on factors such as cultivar, harvest, storage conditions, and processing. This study aims to identify the essential phenolic compounds present in various apple varieties, to measure their total antioxidant capacity (TAC) with the CUPRAC (cupric ion reducing antioxidant capacity) and ABTS (2,2′‐azino‐bis(3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonate)) methods, and to correlate their TAC values with HPLC findings. RESULTS: The order of TAC (mmol Trolox g?1 fresh weight) of apple peels determined with the CUPRAC method was: Granny Smith > Amasya > Sky Spur > Ervin Spur > King Luscious ≥ Arap Kizi ≥ Lutz Golden. The theoretically calculated TAC values of HPLC‐quantified compounds, with the aid of the combined HPLC‐CUPRAC method, accounted for 18.4–33.5% of the experimentally observed CUPRAC capacity of peel extracts and 19.5–56.3% of flesh extracts, depending on apple variety. CONCLUSION: In synthetic samples of apple antioxidants, the CUPRAC‐TAC values of constituents, identified and analyzed by HPLC, proved to be additive, enabling measurement of the cooperative action of antioxidants using the proposed methodology. Apple peel showed higher contents of phenolics and therefore higher TAC than apple flesh, confirming the health benefit of the consumption of apples together with peel. © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Standard American Petroleum Institute (API) filter press is generally used for identifying the filtrate volume of drilling fluids and works only at very low pressures. In fact, during a drilling operation, at downhole conditions, the pressures encountered are significantly higher than what is used during standard API filter press tests. A relationship between the well-known fluid properties and the filtrate volume test is developed. In this study, experiments have been conducted for different water-clay mixtures with varying concentrations at different pressure values by using standard API filter press and HP&HT (high-pressure high-temperature) filter press. The relationship between physical and chemical properties of water-clay mixtures and filtrate volume is analyzed. An empirical correlation has been developed for estimating filtrate volume using basic information of the mud (i.e., rotational viscometer readings, density, pressure, cation exchange capacity, and chemical composition). The developed correlation can estimate filtrate volume with an error less than 20% for a wide range of pressure values. 相似文献

As a more convenient and less costly alternative to electron spin resonance (ESR) and nonspecific nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) and cytochrome c assays of superoxide radical (SR, O(2)(?-)) detection, a novel probe, tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), is introduced for SR nonenzymatically generated in the phenazine methosulfate-β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (PMS-NADH) system. SR attacks both TBHQ and SR scavengers incubated in solution for 30 min where scavengers compete with TBHQ for the O(2)(?-) produced. TBHQ, but not its O(2)(?-) oxidation product, tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (TBBQ), is responsive to the CUPRAC (cupric reducing antioxidant capacity) spectrophotometric assay. The CUPRAC absorbance of the ethyl acetate extract of the incubation solution arising from the reduction of Cu(II)-neocuproine reagent by the remaining TBHQ was higher in the presence of O(2)(?-) scavengers (due to less conversion to TBBQ), the difference being correlated to the SR scavenging activity (SRSA) of the analytes. With the use of this reaction, a kinetic approach was adopted to assess the SRSA of amino acids, vitamins, and plasma and thiol antioxidants. This assay, applicable to small-molecule antioxidants and tissue homogenates, proved to be efficient for cysteine, uric acid, and bilirubin, for which the widely used NBT test is nonresponsive. Thus, conventional problems of NBT assay arising from formazan insolubility and direct reduction of NBT by tested scavengers were overcome. 相似文献

The objective of this paper is to report on a numerical methodology addressing the defect problem in glass-melting furnaces. Specifically, given a furnace, through use of the proposed models one can predict the individual grain dissolution behavior and global size distribution curves of the undissolved silica grains at every point in the glass melt and, of course, in the final glass. Through some illustrative results, the utility of the proposed models is illustrated. 相似文献

Turkish red mud (bauxite waste) has been mixed with dolomite and coke, pelletized and sintered at 1100°C, and finally smelted at 1550°C to produce pig iron and a slag. The slag was leached with 30% H2SO4 at 90°C. The leachate was diluted, ferric iron was reduced with SO2, and extracted with 5% D2EHPA solution in kerosene. Silica and Al2O3 were recovered from the remaining aqueous solution, while the organic extract was stripped with 10% Na2CO3 solution, finally hydrolysed and calcined to produce pigment-grade TiO2. The titanium recovery efficiency on the basis of slag weight was 84·7%. The extractive separation of titanium from both valencies of iron was investigated as a function of pH and time. A stoichiometric flowsheet for the whole process has been developed. ©1997 SCI 相似文献

The European Union is one of the most important players in the field of world energy with an integrated and well-organized energy market. However, energy policies in the EU are not sustainable. The EU is the world’s largest importer of fossil fuels and is leading global action in accelerating the transition to renewable energy and low-carbon economy at present. Renewables make the second-largest contribution to domestic energy production after coal. 相似文献
