Novel Onboard Flotation for Spilled Oil Recovery under Artic and Gulf of Mexico Conditions

Shi F., Duan Y., Soong Y., Gray M., National Energy Technology Laboratory, US

Preventing oil spills is a top priority for the oil and gas industry, and the ability to avert and respond to oil spills is essential for obtaining an operating license. Oil spill response is a [...]

Recovery of phosphate from surface waters using a calcium silicate composite material for potential application in environmental remediation

Cairns M.J., Krauss C., Johnston J.H., Victoria University of Wellington, NZ

In many locations, contamination of surface waters by phosphate due to agricultural run-off is becoming a major environmental concern. Currently, there are no effective means for its removal, due to the low phosphate concentration (< [...]

POSS–Substituted Hyperbranched Polyester Blends with Thermoplastic Polyurethanes

Spoljaric S., Shanks R.A., RMIT University, AU

The aim of this research is to prepare and disperse in an elastomer a multi-branched form of POSS. Hyperbranched polymers (HBP) can be formed by grafting from a central core. POSS may be joined with [...]

Gold nanoparticles cellular toxicity and recovery

Mironava T., Hadjiargyroy M., Rafailovich M.H., SUNY at Stony Brook, US

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have unique electronic and chemical properties and hence are used in many applications. However, their potential health risk(s) and interactions with cells are not fully known. Most previous studies have focused determining [...]
