No full textData for: On a Synthesis of Crystal Population Dynamics and Trace Element Partitioning Models: A Mechanism for Zoning in Minerals
No full textI'm a strong advocate of FAIR data in earth science, code sharing, the principles of open science (see: https://cos.io/), and ongoing/post-publication peer review. Thus, the inclusion of substantial supplemental material. In this collection of files is, most notably, the C code program I used to conduct the modeling described in the paper. I've also made an MS Word version (.docx) of the program with many annotations and discussion. All of the output files are also included. I draw heavily on several of my previous works; many of those are included, too

No full textSíntese de zeólita tipo 4A a partir de resíduo proveniente do processo de polpamento de papel branco
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Química, Florianópolis, 2013.O crescente desenvolvimento industrial vem aumentando consideravelmente a quantidade de resíduos produzidos nos processos de fabricação e, entre esses, pode ser citado o segmento de papel e celulose. Os resíduos deste segmento, quando não dispostos de forma correta no meio ambiente, podem trazer sérios problemas à saúde pública. Além da disposição correta, há uma preocupação crescente com relação ao reaproveitamento destes resíduos para que possam ser reutilizados em outros processos industriais. Quando ocorre a reutilização, diminui de forma considerável a disposição em aterros e, via de regra, economiza energia, matéria prima e minimiza ainda a responsabilidade solidária da empresa geradora destes resíduos com a empresa depositante. Assim, este trabalho tem como foco principal o estudo e definição de uma rota eficaz e viável para a síntese de zeólitas a partir de resíduos provenientes do processo de polpamento de papel branco. Esta alternativa vem no sentido de diminuir os impactos ambientais que este tipo de resíduo gera quando descartado. A alternativa estudada é a utilização do caulim presente nestes resíduos como fonte de metacaulim para a produção de zeólitas. Estas zeólitas têm uma vasta aplicação como trocadores iônicos, catalisadores e peneiras moleculares. Os resultados demonstraram que a rota por meio de reação hidrotermal desenvolvida para a síntese de zeólitas tipo 4A é eficaz. A zeólita sintetizada a partir do resíduo proveniente do processo de polpamento de papel branco foi comparada com uma zeólita comercial padrão, obtendo-se resultados promissores.Abstract : The growing industrial development has considerably increased the amount of waste produced in industrial processes as in the cellulose and paper segment. The residues of this segment, if not properly disposed in the environment, can cause serious problems to public health. Besides the proper disposal of waste on the environment, there is growing concern about the reuse of this waste so that they can be reused in other industrial processes. When reuse occurs, decreases considerably the disposal in landfills and normally saves energy, raw materials and minimizes the responsibility of the company producer of these residues with the company depositor. This work has as main goal the study and development of a viable and effective route for the synthesis of zeolites from waste from the process pulping of white paper. This alternative comes in order to reduce the environmental impacts that this type of waste generated when discarded. The alternative studied is the use of kaolin present in the waste as a source of metakaolin to produce zeolites. These zeolites have a wide application as ion exchangers, catalysts and molecular sieves. The results demonstrated that t he route by hydrothermal reaction developed for the synthesis of type 4A zeolite is effective. The zeolite synthesized from waste from the process pulping of white paper was compared with a standard commercial zeolite and obtained excellent results. Adsorption experiments were performed to verify its efficiency in application as adsorbent of heavy metals from acid mine drainage in removing iron and manganese ions. The synthesized zeolite was extremely efficient in its use as an adsorbent
Unravelling landscape permanencies: A digital historical journey into the milanese countryside
No full textThe objective of the applied research is the construction of a cross-media map to discover the agricultural landscape, through the digitization and geo-referencing on Google maps of historical maps and photos of the Cà Granda Foundation Archive. It allows the visualization and immediate accessibility of landscape transformations, in a sort of multimedia journey through time
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Osteocalcin production in vivo and in vitro after 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol stimulation comparison of different assays
No full textThe study was designed to assess the sensitivity of three commercial assays (which differ in methodology, standard and antibodies) for osteocalcin, used for detecting changes in osteocalcin secretion induced by calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol) in vivo and in vitro. Osteocalcin levels were determined in serum samples of 10 osteoporotic women after short term calcitriol treatment, and in the culture medium of human osteoblast-like cells (n = 22) after 48 h calcitriol exposure. All assays displayed similar sensitivity in detecting osteocalcin production in vivo after a 1 microgram daily dose of calcitriol. A novel IRMA (CIS), claimed to detect intact osteocalcin, showed higher osteocalcin values than the other assays, and in vitro showed the best sensitivity; it provides an appropriate index of the osteocalcin synthetic activity of cultured human osteoblasts
