Mineraalien rikastusprosessin vesijalanjälki

Mineraalien rikastamiseen käytetään useita fysikaalisia ja kemiallisia menetelmiä. Prosessi sisältää malmin hienonnuksen, rikastuksen ja lopuksi vedenpoistamisen rikastelietteestä. Malmin rikastamiseen käytetään muun muassa vaahdotusta, liuotusta, magneettista rikastusta ja tiheyseroihin perustuvia rikastusmenetelmiä. Rikastuslietteestä voidaan poistaa vettä sakeuttamalla ja suodattamalla. Rikastusprosessin ympäristövaikutuksia voidaan arvioida laskemalla tuotteen vesijalanjälki, joka kertoo valmistamiseen kulutetun veden määrän. Tässä kirjallisuustyössä esiteltiin mineraalien käsittelymenetelmiä sekä prosessijätevesien puhdistusmenetelmiä. Kirjallisuuslähteiden pohjalta selvitettiin Pyhäsalmen kaivoksella valmistetun kuparianodin vesijalanjälki sekä esitettiin menetelmiä, joilla prosessiin tarvittavan raakaveden kulutusta voitaisiin vähentää. Pyhäsalmella kuparirikasteesta valmistetun kuparianodin vesijalanjälki on 240 litraa H2O ekvivalenttia tuotettua tonnia kohden. Pyhäsalmen prosessin raakaveden kulutusta voidaan vähentää lisäämällä sisäistä vedenkierrätystä. Kalsiumsulfaatin saostuminen putkiin ja pumppuihin on ilmentynyt ongelmaksi vedenkierrätyksen lisäämisessä. Kalsiumsulfaattia voidaan erottaa vedestä membraaneihin, ioninvaihtoon ja sähkökemiaan perustuvilla tekniikoilla. Vaihtoehdossa, jossa johdetaan kaikista kolmesta vaahdotuksesta saatavat rikastuslietteen ja rikastushiekan sakeutuksien ylitteet sekä suodatuksien suodosvedet samaan vedenkäsittelyyn voidaan kattaa arviolta noin 65 % koko veden tarpeesta. Raakavettä säästetään vuodessa 3,4 Mm^3 ja samalla rikastushiekka-altaiden tarvittava koko pienenee, joka vähentää ympäristöriskejä.

Antitromboottisten lääkeaineiden enantiomeerien kromatografinen fraktiointi

Suuri osa käytössä olevista lääkeaineista on kiraalisia yhdisteitä. Lääkevalmisteet sisältävät yhdisteen enantiomeerien ominaisuuksista riippuen joko yksittäistä enantiomeeria tai näiden seosta. Antitromboottisiin eli veren hyytymistä estäviin lääkeaineisiin kuuluvat varfariini ja rivaroksabaani ovat kiraalisia yhdisteitä, joiden enantiomeerien ominaisuudet poikkeavat antitromboottisen vaikutuksen voimakkuuden suhteen. Varfariinia käytetään kliinisesti enantiomeeriensa raseemisena seoksena, kun taas rivaroksabaani on käytössä lääkevalmisteena puhtaana S-enantiomeerinaan. Lääkeaineen enantiomeerien erottaminen toisistaan on tärkeää esimerkiksi enantiomeerien puhdistamiseksi, lääkevalmisteen oikean koostumuksen varmistamiseksi tai yksittäisten enantiomeerien käyttäytymisen arvioimiseksi elimistössä. Tässä kirjallisuustyössä käsiteltiin nestekromatografian käyttöä antitromboottisiin lääkeaineisiin kuuluvien antikoagulanttien enantiomeerien fraktioinnissa. Kirjallisuudesta saadun tiedon perusteella arvioitiin, millä erotusmateriaaleilla ja millaisissa koeolosuhteissa varfariinin sekä rivaroksabaanin enantiomeerit tulisi erottaa toisistaan. Varfariinin enantiomeerien erotukseen parhaiten sopivaksi erotusmateriaaliksi todettiin kirjallisuuden perusteella kiraalinen vankomysiinipohjainen stationaarifaasi (Chirobiotic V) metanolin, etikkahapon ja veden seoksen toimiessa eluenttina. Eluentin virtausnopeudella 0,3 mL/min ja pienellä injektiotilavuudella varfariinin enantiomeerit saatiin erottumaan täydellisesti ja nopeasti toisistaan. Kirjallisuuden perusteella rivaroksabaanin enantiomeerien erotuksessa erotusmateriaalina toimii parhaiten kiraalinen selluloosapohjainen stationaarifaasi (Chiralcel OD-RH), kun eluenttina käytetään n-heksaanin ja isopropanolin seosta virtausnopeudella 1 mL/min. Varfariinin ja rivaroksabaanin enantiomeerien fraktiointiin parhaiten sopivia menetelmiä voidaan käyttää eri tilanteissa, kuten lääkevalmisteiden laadunvarmistuksessa tai enantiomeerien erotuksessa niiden synteesin jälkeen.

Surface electron properties and catalytic activity of rare earth oxides

The rare earths have provided fascinating field for chemists confronted with problems of their separation and purification. The rare earths become available in relatively pure form in recent years due to the development of efficient separation methods, largely as a byproduct of the atomic energy programmes of various countries. The rare earths often called lanthanides from La (Z=57) to Lu (Z=7l) display subtle variation of properties through the series, while the differences become appreciable for the elements that are farther apart.

Retention time prediction and protein identification

Proteins are commonly identified through enzymatic digestion and generation of short sequence tags or fingerprints of peptide masses by mass spectrometry. Separation methods, such as liquid chromatography and electrophoresis, are often used to fractionate complex protein or peptide mixtures and these separations also provide information on the different species, such as molecular weight and isoelectric point from electrophoresis and hydrophobicity in reversed-phase chromatography. These are also properties that can be predicted from amino acid sequences derived from genomic sequences and used in protein identification. This chapter reviews recently introduced methods based on retention time prediction to extract information from chromatographic separations and the applications to protein identification in organisms with small and large genomes. Novel data on retention time prediction of posttranslationally modified peptides is also presented.

MALDI mass spectrometry in prostate cancer biomarker discovery

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation (MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) is a highly versatile and sensitive analytical technique, which is known for its soft ionisation of biomolecules such as peptides and proteins. Generally, MALDI MS analysis requires little sample preparation, and in some cases like MS profiling it can be automated through the use of robotic liquid-handling systems. For more than a decade now, MALDI MS has been extensively utilised in the search for biomarkers that could aid clinicians in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment decision making. This review examines the various MALDI-based MS techniques like MS imaging, MS profiling and proteomics in-depth analysis where MALDI MS follows fractionation and separation methods such as gel electrophoresis, and how these have contributed to prostate cancer biomarker research. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Biomarkers: A Proteomic Challenge.

Development of a sequential injection chromatography (SIC) method for determination of simazine, atrazine, and propazine

This paper describes the development of a sequential injection chromatography (SIC) procedure for separation and quantification of the herbicides simazine, atrazine, and propazine exploring the low backpressure of a 2.5 cm long monolithic C(18) column. The separation of the three compounds was achieved in less than 90 s with resolution > 1.5 using a mobile phase composed by ACN/1.25 mmol/L acetate buffer (pH 4.5) at the volumetric ratio of 35:65 and flow rate of 40 mu L/s. Detection was made at 223 nm using a flow cell with 40 mm of optical path length. The LOD was 10 mu g/L for the three triazines and the quantification limits were of 30 mu g/L for simazine and propazine and 40 mu g/L for atrazine. The sampling frequency is 27 samples per hour, consuming 1.1 mL of ACN per analysis. The proposed methodology was applied to spiked water samples and no statistically significant differences were observed in comparison to a conventional HPLC-UV method. The major metabolites of atrazine and other herbicides did not interfere in the analysis, being eluted from the column either together with the unretained peak, or at retention times well-resolved from the studied compounds.

Reproduktionens inverkan på det slutliga tryckresultatet med djuptryck på MF-papper

To get an optimal print result with rotogravure on improved newsprint, MF-paper, knowledge aboutwhat adjustment that should be done through the whole production is needed. This degree project investigatesthe reproduction’s effect on the final print result.A test print is done at Quebecor World Nordic Interprint´s regular print unit. The evaluation of theprint shows how important the use of a unit adjusted ICC-profile is for the print quality. A comparisonbetween the two separation methods GCR and UCR shows that Interprint´s present ICC-profile, usingUCR as separation method, gives less missing dots. When the cylinder that prints the black ink isengraving whit a slower speed than normal the result shows that the colour becomes a little darker, thedetails becomes clear but the difference is very small.

Mother’s experiences and perceptions of a continuous caring model with fathers after caesarean section : a qualitative study

Background: In Chile, mothers and newborns are separated after caesarean sections. The caesarean section rate in Chile is approximately 40%. Once separated, newborns will miss out on the benefits of early contact unless a suitable model of early newborn contact after caesarean section is initiated. Aim: To describe mothers experiences and perceptions of a continuous parental model of newborn care after caesarean section during mother-infant separation. Methods: A questionnaire with 4 open ended questions to gather data on the experiences and perceptions of 95 mothers in the obstetric service of Sótero Del Rio Hospital in Chile between 2009 and 2012. Data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results: One theme family friendly practice after caesarean section and four categories. Mothers described the benefits of this model of caring. The fathers presence was important to mother and baby. Mothers were reassured that the baby was not left alone with staff. It was important for the mothers to see that the father could love the baby as much as the mother. This model of care helped create ties between the father and newborn during the period of mother-infant separation and later with the mother. Conclusions: Family friendly practice after caesarean section was an important health care intervention for the whole family. This model could be stratified in the Chilean context in the case of complicated births and all caesarean sections. Clinical Implications: In the Chilean context, there is the potential to increase the number of parents who get to hold their baby immediately after birth and for as long as they like. When the mother and infant are separated after birth, parents can be informed about the benefits of this caring model. Further research using randomized control trials may support biological advantages.

Identificação e comparação entre controle preditivo com modelo não linear e PI sintonizados com PSO em sistema de separação gravitacional de águia-óleo

The separation methods are reduced applications as a result of the operational costs, the low output and the long time to separate the uids. But, these treatment methods are important because of the need for extraction of unwanted contaminants in the oil production. The water and the concentration of oil in water should be minimal (around 40 to 20 ppm) in order to take it to the sea. Because of the need of primary treatment, the objective of this project is to study and implement algorithms for identification of polynomial NARX (Nonlinear Auto-Regressive with Exogenous Input) models in closed loop, implement a structural identification, and compare strategies using PI control and updated on-line NARX predictive models on a combination of three-phase separator in series with three hydro cyclones batteries. The main goal of this project is to: obtain an optimized process of phase separation that will regulate the system, even in the presence of oil gushes; Show that it is possible to get optimized tunings for controllers analyzing the mesh as a whole, and evaluate and compare the strategies of PI and predictive control applied to the process. To accomplish these goals a simulator was used to represent the three phase separator and hydro cyclones. Algorithms were developed for system identification (NARX) using RLS(Recursive Least Square), along with methods for structure models detection. Predictive Control Algorithms were also implemented with NARX model updated on-line, and optimization algorithms using PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization). This project ends with a comparison of results obtained from the use of PI and predictive controllers (both with optimal state through the algorithm of cloud particles) in the simulated system. Thus, concluding that the performed optimizations make the system less sensitive to external perturbations and when optimized, the two controllers show similar results with the assessment of predictive control somewhat less sensitive to disturbances

Acid Black 48 dye biosorption using Saccharomyces cerevisiae immobilized with treated sugarcane bagasse

The textile industry consumes large quantities of water and chemicals, especially in dyeing and finishing processes. Textile dye adsorption can be accomplished with natural or synthetic compounds. Cell immobilization using biomaterials allows the reduction of toxicity and mechanical resistance and opens spaces within the matrix for cell growth. The use of natural materials, such as sugarcane bagasse, is promising due to the low costs involved. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the use of sugarcane bagasse treated with either polyethyleneimine (PEI), NaOH or distilled water in the cell immobilization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for textile dye removal. Three different adsorption tests were conducted: treated sugarcane bagasse alone, free yeast cells and bagasse-immobilized yeast cells. Yeast immobilization was 31.34% with PEI-treated bagasse, 8.56% with distilled water and 22.54% with NaOH. PEI-treated bagasse exhibited the best removal rates of the dye at all pH values studied (2.50, 4.50 and 6.50). The best Acid Black 48 adsorption rates were obtained with use of free yeast cells. At pH 2.50, 1 mg of free yeast cells was able to remove 5488.49 g of the dye. The lowest adsorption capacity rates were obtained using treated bagasse alone. However, the use of bagasse-immobilized cells increased adsorption efficiency from 20 to 40%. The use of immobilized cells in textile dye removal is very attractive due to adsorbed dye precipitation, which eliminates the industrial need for centrifugation processes. Dye adsorption using only yeast cells or sugarcane bagasse requires separation methods.

Entwicklung einer Online-Kopplung der Gelelektrophorese mit der induktiv gekoppelten Plasma-Massenspektrometrie und deren Anwendung in der Bioanalytik

Die Elementmassenspektrometrie wurde in den letzten Jahren sehr erfolgreich zur Aufklärung verschiedener Fragestellungen in der Bioanalytik eingesetzt. Hierbei spielen vor allem Kopplungstechniken von Trennmethoden wie der Flüssigchromatographie (LC) oder der Kapillarelektrophorese (CE) mit der induktiv gekoppelten Plasma-Massenspektrometrie (ICP-MS) als Multielementdetektor mit hervorragenden Quantifizierungseigenschaften eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Untersuchung von Biopolymeren und deren Wechselwirkung mit verschiedenen Metallen. So wurden beispielsweise verschiedene Methoden für die Trennung und Detektion von Metalloproteinen oder DNA-Metall-Addukten in unterschiedlichen Probenmaterialien entwickelt. Die traditionelle und leistungsstärkste Trennmethode für Biopolymere aller Art, die Gelelektrophorese, wurde jedoch bislang nicht in einem Online-Verfahren an die ICP-MS gekoppelt, um solche Fragestellungen zu bearbeiten. Verschiedene Versuche auf der Basis der Laserablation wurden in diese Richtung unternommen, wobei diese Techniken als sehr umständlich und zeitaufwändig anzusehen sind. In dieser Arbeit wird erstmals die technische Realisierung einer Online-Kopplung der Gelelektrophorese mit der ICP-MS beschrieben. Das System basiert auf einem Prinzip aus der präparativen Gelelektrophorese, in welcher eine kontinuierliche Elution der getrennten Komponenten aus dem Gel während der laufenden Elektrophorese durchgeführt wird. Die eluierten Komponenten werden mit dem Elutionspuffer direkt in das Zerstäubersystem des ICP-MS geführt. Die ersten Untersuchungen wurden am Beispiel der Fragemente von doppelsträngiger DNA (dsDNA) durchgeführt. Kommerziell erhältliche Standardlösungen wurden mit der Online-GE-ICP-MS mittels Detektion von 31P an einem hochauflösenden Massenspektrometer mit einer Massenauflösung von 4000 analysiert. Die Trennbedingungen (z.B. pH-Wert oder Ionenstärke der Pufferlösungen) wurden für die Trennung von dsDNA-Fragementen in Agarosegelen optimiert und auf verschiedene dsDNA-Fragmente angewandt. In einem nächsten Schritt wurden die Quantifizierungsmöglichkeiten für Biopolymere untersucht. Sehr kleine Mengen an dsDNA konnten mit einer Präzision von weniger als 3% quantifiziert werden. Hierfür kamen verschiedene Möglichkeiten der externen Kalibration zum Einsatz, wie der Kalibration mit einem Phosphat-Standard oder einem kommerziell erhältlichen quantitativen dsDNA-Standard. Um das Potenzial der entwickelten Methode für die Untersuchung von Biopolymer-Metall-Wechselwirkungen zu demonstrieren, wurden Oligonukleotide mit Cisplatin unter physiologischen Bedingungen inkubiert und die Reaktionsprodukte mit der Online-GE-ICP-MS mittels 31P- und 195Pt-Detektion untersucht. Verschiedene Cisplatin-Oligonukleotid-Addukte konnten auf diese Weise beobachtet werden, was zur Identifizierung die Anwendung der MALDI-TOF-MS als komplementärer Form der Massenspektrometrie notwendig machte. Abschließend wurde die Isotopenverdünnungsanalyse zum Zweck der Quantifizierung herangezogen.

Nicht geträgerte Radioarsenisotope: ihre Herstellung, Abtrennung und Markierung von Proteinen

Das Element Arsen besitzt eine Reihe von Isotopen, die in nahezu trägerfreier Form (nca) produziert werden können und deshalb in der Radiopharmazie für die Diagnose oder Endoradiotherapie Verwendung finden können. Bei der Positronenemissionstomographie (PET) gibt es eine gewisse Lücke bei der Versorgung mit langlebigen Positronenemittern, die zur Untersuchung von langsamen physiologischen Prozessen wie z.B. der Biodistribution und Anreicherung von Antikörpern in Tumorgewebe eingesetzt werden können. Die beiden Arsenisotope 72As (T1/2 = 26 h, 88 % beta+) und 74As (T1/2 = 17,8 d, 29 % beta+) vereinen eine lange physikalische Halbwertszeit mit einer hohen Positronenemissionsrate und sind daher geeignete Kandidaten. Da das Verhalten von radioaktivem Arsen und seine Verwendung in der molekularen Bildgebung international relativ wenig bearbeitet sind, wurde die Radiochemie des Arsens von der Isotopenproduktion an Kernreaktor und Zyklotron, über die Entwicklung von Abtrennungsmethoden für Germanium und Arsen, bis hin zur Entwicklung einer soliden Markierungschemie für Antikörper weiterentwickelt. Die in dieser Arbeit bearbeiteten Felder sind: 1. Die Isotopenproduktion der relevanten Arsenisotope (72/74/77As) wurde an Kernreaktor und Zyklotron durch Bestrahlung von GeO2- und Germaniummetalltargets durchgeführt. Pro 6 h Bestrahlung von 100 mg Germanium konnten ca. 2 MBq 77As am TRIGA Reaktor in Mainz hergestellt werden. Am Zyklotron des DKFZ in Heidelberg konnten unter optimierten Bedingungen bei der Bestrahlung von Germaniummetall (EP = 15 Mev, 20 µA, 200 µAh) ca. 4 GBq 72As und ca. 400 MBq 74As produziert werden. 2. Die Entwicklung neuer Abtrennungsmethoden für nca 72/74/77As von makroskopischen Mengen Germanium wurde vorangetrieben. Für die Aufarbeitung von GeO2- und Germaniummetalltargets kamen insgesamt 8 verschiedene Methoden wie Festphasenextraktion, Flüssig-Flüssig-Extraktion, Destillation, Anionenaustauschchromatographie zum Einsatz. Die erzielten Ausbeuten lagen dabei zwischen 31 und 56 %. Es wurden Abtrennungsfaktoren des Germaniums zwischen 1000 und 1•10E6 erreicht. Alle erfolgreichen Abtrennungsmethoden lieferten *As(III) in 500 µl PBS-Puffer bei pH 7. Diese Form des Radioarsens ist für die Markierung von SH-modifizierten Molekülen, wie z.B. Antikörpern geeignet. 3. Die Entwicklung von Methoden zur Bestimmung des Oxidationszustandes von nca *As in organischem, neutralem wässrigen, oder stark sauren Medium mittels Radio-DC und Anionenaustauschchromatographie wurde durchgeführt und führte zu einem besseren Verständnis der Redoxchemie des nca *As. 4. SH-modifizierte Antikörper wurden mit 72/74/77As(III) markiert. Dabei wurden zwei Methoden (Modifizierung mit SATA und TCEP) miteinander verglichen. Während das *As(III) bei Verwendung von TCEP in Ausbeuten > 90 % mit dem Antikörper reagierte, wurde für SATA-modifizierte Antikörper in Abhängigkeit von der verwendeten Abtrennungsmethode eine breite Spanne von 0 % bis > 90 % beobachtet. 5. Es wurden Phantommessungen mit 18F, 72As und 74As am µ-PET-Scanner durchgeführt, um erste Aussagen über die zu erwartende Auflösung der Arsenisotope zu erhalten. Die Auflösung von 74As ist mit 18F vergleichbar, während die von 72As erkennbar schlechter ist.

Probabilistic assessment of risk from the exposure to mercury in artisanal gold mining communities in Colombia

Colombia is one the largest per capita mercury polluters as a consequence of its artisanal gold mining operations, which are steadily increasing following the rising price of this metal. Compared to gravimetric separation methods and cyanidation, the concentration of gold using Hg amalgams presents several advantages: the process is less time-consuming and minimizes gold losses, and Hg is easily transported and inexpensive relative to the selling price of gold. Very often, mercury amalgamation is carried out on site by unprotected workers. During this operation large amounts of mercury are discharged to the environment and eventually reach the fresh water bodies in the vicinity where it is subjected to methylation. Additionally, as gold is released from the amalgam by heating on open charcoal furnaces in small workshops, mercury vapors are emitted and inhaled by the artisanal smelters and the general population

Estudo da seletividade de catalisadores a base de cobre e paládio em transformações de hidrocarbonetos insaturados

Compreender a correlação entre as características de um catalisador particular e seu desempenho catalítico tem sido um dos principais objetos da pesquisa em catálise heterogênea a fim de usar esse conhecimento para o desenho racional de catalisadores mais ativos, seletivos e estáveis. A seletividade é um dos fatores mais importantes a ser controlado pelo desenho de catalisadores, podendo ser alcançada de diversas maneiras, levando-se em consideração mudanças do tipo estrutural, química, eletrônica, de composição, de cinética e de energia. O trabalho descrito nessa tese de doutorado compreende a síntese e caracterização de catalisadores compostos de nanopartículas de óxido de cobre, paládio e cobre-paládio e seu estudo em reações de hidrogenação e oxidação seletivas de hidrocarbonetos insaturados. Os catalisadores foram preparados através da deposição de nanopartículas dos metais cataliticamente ativos sobre suportes magneticamente recuperáveis compostos de nanopartículas de magnetita revestidas por sílica com superfícies funcionalizada com diferentes grupos orgânicos. A natureza magnética do suporte permitiu a fácil separação do catalisador do meio reacional pela simples aproximação de um ímã na parede do reator. O catalisador pôde ser completamente separado da fase líquida, fazendo com que a utilização de outros métodos de separação como filtração e centrifugação, comumente utilizados em sistemas heterogêneos líquidos, fossem completamente dispensados. Os catalisadores foram inicialmente testados em reações de hidrogenação de alquenos e alquinos. As reações de hidrogenação foram realizadas utilizando hidrogênio molecular como agente redutor, dispensando a utilização de agentes redutores mais agressivos. Os catalisadores compostos de NPs de Pd mostram excelente atividade e capacidade de reutilização na hidrogenação de cicloexeno, podendo ser utilizados em até 15 ciclos sem perda de atividade. Nas reações de hidrogenação de alquinos, os catalisadores que contêm cobre mostraram maior seletividade para a obtenção dos produtos de semi-hidrogenação, com destaque para o catalisador composto de NPs de CuPd, que não apresenta nem traços do produto de hidrogenação completa na amostra final. Esse catalisador bimetálico alia as características do paládio (elevada atividade) e do cobre (elevada seletividade) para fornecer um catalisador ativo e seletivo para a transformação desejada. Além disso, os grupos funcionais presentes na superfície do suporte catalítico mostraram influência na atividade e seletividade para a hidrogenação de alquenos e alquinos. Os catalisadores sintetizados também foram testados na reação de oxidação de cicloexeno e mostraram seletividade para a produção do composto carbonílico α,β-insaturado, cicloex-2-en-1-ona, que é um reagente de partida de grande interesse para a síntese de diversos materiais na indústria química. As reações de oxidação foram realizadas utilizando-se apenas O2 como oxidante primário, dispensando o uso de oxidantes tóxicos como cromatos, permanganatos ou compostos halogenados, que não são recomendados do ponto de vista ambiental. Os catalisadores sintetizados puderam ser reutilizados em sucessivos ciclos de oxidação, mostrando seletividade para a formação dos produtos alílicos em todos os ciclos. Os catalisadores foram estáveis sob as condições reacionais e não apresentaram problemas de lixiviação da espécie ativa para o meio reacional, que é comum na catálise heterogênea. Um estudo cinético mostrou que, mesmo no início da reação, o catalisador tem seletividade para a ocorrência de oxidação alílica em detrimento da reação de oxidação direta que dá origem ao epóxidos correspondente, e se mostrou condizente com o mecanismo proposto na literatura para a reação de oxidação de alquenos via radicalar.
