The Influence of Specific Ions and System Architecture on the Recognition and Reactivity of Two Charged Materials: DNA-Modified Gold Nanoparticle Aggregates and Planar Silica
DownloadFall 2014
DNA functionalized gold nanoparticles (GNP–DNA) offer simple colorimetric nucleic acid sensing with high selectivity and sensitivity. Consequently, they are promising in genetic profiling, disease diagnostics, and forensic applications. In the presence of a target nucleic acid, GNP–DNA forms...

The Short-term Impacts of Aspen Clear-cutting on Upland Groundwater RechargeClear-cutting Impacts on Groundwater Recharge
DownloadSpring 2011
The impacts of aspen clear-cutting on upland groundwater recharge are presented based on two years (2007-2008) of the five year (2005-2009) HEAD2 NSERC-CRD paired-catchment experiment. Research was conducted at the Utikuma Region Study Area (URSA), 370 km north of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, in...

Toxicity of saline groundwater from Syncrude's Lease 17 to fish and benthic macroinvertebrates
Download1977
Peltzner, A., McMahon, B., McCart, P., Walder, G.
The mining of the tar sands which are included in the area to be developed by Syncrude Canada Ltd. will require the dewatering of the mine pits. This will involve the pumping of large volumes of saline groundwater. Present plans call for its eventual disposal through Ruth Lake, the Poplar River...

The influence of the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state on specific phenotypic traits of Escherichia coli O157:H7 as well as its transport behaviour in porous media was examined in this study. E.coli O157:H7 is a human pathogen capable of entering a VBNC state following exposure to sublethal...

In this research two-dimensional mathematical models were developed to study adsorption of single component volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and competitive adsorption of n-component mixtures of VOCs from dilute gas streams in a fixed-bed adsorber. The models consist of the macroscopic mass,...

Vehicle painting booths are among the major sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions in the auto manufacturing sector. A challenge with controlling VOCs by adsorption onto activated carbon (AC) is the occurrence of strongly, or even permanently, adsorbed species. Irreversible...

Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) processes are an industrially mature low energy consumption pathway for gas separations. Due to their performance being linked to the separation media, they provide an additional degree of freedom for process design. They are difficult to accurately model due to...
