    Fellow-craftsmen : a study of the personal and professional relationship between Mary Johnston and Ellen Glasgow

    No full text
    Biographers and critics tend to vary widely on the attention given to the personal, intellectual, and literary significance of the friendship between Ellen Glasgow and Mary Johnston. In this thesis, the author argues that the two women, obviously drawn together because of personal and professional similarities, shared intellectual interests, a passion for writing, and certainly nurtured each other\u27s creativity. By providing extensive evidence from Mary Johnston\u27s unpublished diaries, notebooks, and journals, as well evidence from the abundance of published and unpublished correspondence between the two women, this thesis refutes past critical assessments and establishes that the relationship between Glasgow and Johnston was indeed intellectual and significant rather than superficially social. This thesis makes the argument that Mary Johnston\u27s own life and ideas, as well as the life engendered in her fiction, affected the life and literary career of Ellen Glagow, much as Glasgow\u27s real and fictional lives influenced Johnston\u27s

    Analysis of trace contaminants in hot gas streams using time-weighted average solid-phase microextraction: Pilot-scale validation

    No full text
    A new method was developed for collecting, identifying and quantifying contaminants in hot process gas streams using time-weighted average (TWA) passive sampling with retracted solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography. The previous lab scale proof-of-concept with benzene was expanded to include the remaining major tar compounds of interest in syngas: toluene, styrene, indene, and naphthalene. The new method was tested on high T (⩾100 °C) process gas from a pilot-scale fluidized bed gasifier feeding switchgrass and compared side-by-side with conventional impingers-based method. Fourteen additional compounds were identified, representing 40–60% improvement over the conventional method’s detection capacity. Differences between the two methods were 1–20% and as much as 40–100% depending on the sampling location. Compared to the inconsistent conventional method, the SPME-TWA offered a simplified, solvent-free approach capable of drastically reducing sampling and sample preparation time and improving analytical reliability. The improved sensitivity of the new method enabled identification and quantification of VOCs beyond the capability of the conventional approaches, reaching concentrations in the ppb range (low mg/m3). RSDs associated with the TWA-SPME were 4000 ppm (up to 10 g/N m3). The new method can be a valid alternative to the conventional method for light tar quantification under certain conditions. The opportunity also exists to exploit TWA-SPME for process gas streams analysis e.g., pyrolysis vapors and combustion exhaust.This article is published as Woolcock, Patrick J., Jacek A.
