    Towards a new salt crystallisation test: Comparison of salt contamination procedure

    No full text
    The RILEM TC 271-ASC is currently developing a new ageing test to assess theresistance of porous building materials to salt crystallisation. The new test consists of two phases: salt accumulation and damage propagation. This paper focuses on the salt accumulation phase; this phase should promote salt crystallisation close to the evaporative surface of the substrates (common situation onsite) without leading to salt efflorescence or damage. Damage should take place in the propagation phase, which is not addressed in this paper. This work compares the effectiveness of three contamination procedures for salt accumulation: P1) salt contamination by capillary absorption of salt solution, followed by drying; P2) continuous capillary absorption of salt solution; P3) placement of salt crystals on the surface of the materials followed by the conditioning of the specimens at high relative humidity until complete dissolution of the salts. The results of P1 and P2 procedures presented in this paper are detailed in a separate publication, while this paper focuses on P3 procedure and compares the results. The effectiveness of each procedure has been evaluated by assessing the salt distribution in the specimen using ion chromatography and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that P3 is technically the least complicated to set up and does not entail the risk of development of salt efflorescence or damage. However, it can lead to salt migration within the specimens to a greater depth, hence future research is proposed to counteract this effect.Heritage & Architectur

    Salt pretreatment alleviated salt-induced photoinhibition in sweet sorghum

    Sweet sorghum is an important energy crop. This study aimed to investigate the effects of salt pretreatment on the interaction between photosystem II (PSII) and photosystem I (PSI) upon salt stress. In this study, sweet sorghum was pretreated with 150 mM NaCl for 10 days, and subsequently, the pretreated plants were subjected to severe salt stress at 300 mM NaCl. PSII and PSI photoinhibition occurred in non-pretreated plants after 4 days of salt stress, as the maximum quantum yield of PSII (Fv/Fm) and the maximal photochemical capacity of PSI (Delta MR/MR0) significantly decreased, and their normal coordination was destroyed. The significant positive correlation between Fv/Fm and Delta MR/MR0 under salt stress indicated that PSII photoinhibition was in relation to PSI photoinhibition, and PSI photoinhibition might lead to PSII photoinhibition through inhibiting electron transport at the acceptor side of PSII. Salt stress did not induce PSII photoinhibition in salt-pretreated plants, and thus, salt pretreatment protected PSI against photoinhibition not by aggravating PSII photoinhibition. Salt pretreatment mitigated the decrease in CO2 assimilation, reduced the feedback inhibition on photosynthetic electron transport and then contributed to suppressing PSI and PSII photoinhibition in sweet sorghum under salt stress. Therefore, the normal coordination between PSII and PSI was maintained in salt-pretreated plants. In conclusion, salt pretreatment ensured normal PSII and PSI coordination by preventing photoinhibition in sweet sorghum under salt stress

    Panning for salt in Benin and Brittany

    The author describes the work of PIRATTES, a project jointly directed by the Co-operative of Salt Producers in Guande (France), the Scientific And Technological Centre (Benin), and the French Volunteer Association (AFVP). The project, linking communities involved in salt-production in the North and the South, introduced new processes to Benin to avoid the major ecological and workers' health problems caused by traditional processes. Two years into the project, and it has expanded. The results obtained are encouraging, though marred slightly by the continued use of artificial materials.This article is hosted by our co-publisher Taylor & Francis.</p

    Ermeniler Ve Suriye: 1915 ve 1923

    No full text
    This brief article takes as its starting point a parallel drawn by the British journalist Robert Fisk between the suffering of Armenians during the First World War and the suffering of Armenians during the current conflict in Syria. The author draws other parallels: between the manipulation of the Armenians and other ethno-religious groups to serve the interests of the entente powers between 1914-18 and the human consequences of intervention in present day Syria by western governments and their regional allies. Indeed, the entire Middle East and North Africa has been an arena for western intervention since early in the 19th century. The author looks at key events from the unfolding of the ‘Armenian question’ through to the Greek invasion of western Anatolia in 1919, carried out under the aegis of the victorious wartime powers and ending in disaster for both Anatolian Turks and Greeks. The article challenges the historical division drawn between the perpetrators of violence and the victims of violence, showing that both were to be found in virtually all ethno-religious groups in what was at the time the most destructive war in world history. The author sees the acknowledgment of this reality as the true foundation of reconciliation between groups still clinging to deeply polarized historical narratives
