Flammable liquid burns in children

Objectives: To document and describe the effects of flammable liquid burns in children. To identify the at risk population in order to tailor a burns prevention programme. Design, patients and setting: Retrospective study with information obtained from the departmental database of children treated at the burns centre at The Royal Children's Hospital, Brisbane between August 1997 and October 2002. Main outcome measures: Number and ages of children burned, risk factors contributing to the accident, injuries sustained, treatment required and long-term sequelae. Results: Fifty-nine children sustained flammable liquid burns (median age 10.5 years), with a clear preponderance of males (95%). The median total body surface area burned was 8% (range 0.5-70%). Twenty-seven (46%) of the patients required debridement and grafting. Hypertrophic scars occurred in 56% of the children and contractures in 14%, of which all of the latter required surgical release. Petrol was the causative liquid in the majority (83%) of cases. Conclusions: The study identified the population most at risk of sustaining flammable liquid burns were young adolescent males. In the majority of cases these injuries were deemed preventable. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd and ISBI. All rights reserved.

Nitrogen removal from sludge digester liquids by nitrification/denitrification or partial nitritation/anammox: environmental and economical considerations

In wastewater treatment plants with anaerobic sludge digestion, 15-20% of the nitrogen load is recirculated to the main stream with the return liquors from dewatering. Separate treatment of this ammonium-rich digester supernatant significantly reduces the nitrogen load of the activated sludge system. Two biological applications are considered for nitrogen elimination: (i) classical autotrophic nitrification/heterotrophic denitrification and (ii) partial nitritation/autotrophic anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox). With both applications 85-90% nitrogen removal can be achieved, but there are considerable differences in terms of sustainability and costs. The final gaseous products for heterotrophic denitrification are generally not measured and are assumed to be nitrogen gas (N-2). However, significant nitrous oxide (N2O) production can occur at elevated nitrite concentrations in the reactor. Denitrification via nitrite instead of nitrate has been promoted in recent years in order to reduce the oxygen and the organic carbon requirements. Obviously this achievement turns out to be rather disadvantageous from an overall environmental point of view. On the other hand no unfavorable intermediates are emitted during anaerobic ammonium oxidation. A cost estimate for both applications demonstrates that partial nitritation/anammox is also more economical than classical nitrification/denitrification. Therefore autotrophic nitrogen elimination should be used in future to treat ammonium-rich sludge liquors.
