Engineering Research Equipment Grant: Gas Chromatograph andHeadspace Sampler

各种项目将使用所要求的天然气 色谱仪。 第一个项目是确定基本质量 在非常高的热通量率下的传输参数将使用 设备 该项目旨在提供 基本洞察的问题，粉扑形成， 间歇进料回转窑焚烧炉。 第二个项目 涉及开发流通式生物反应器， 降解短链氯代烃污染物。 一 第三个项目涉及受污染的土壤气体调查 评估其是否适合就地生物降解。 在这一关键环境领域的基本实地工作是 目前非常有限。 两个小项目还将 利用设备。 第一个将尝试预测 在厌氧消化器中的混乱， 常规技术。 第二个项目将涉及 能够降解化合物的细菌菌株的分离 目前被认为是不可生物降解的，特别是几个 短链氯化烃。 该设备将大大提高研究小组的 有能力进行各种基本测量， 预计将对大学的积极影响 对环境研究的贡献。

A variety of projects will use the requested gas chromatograph. First, a project to determine fundamental mass transport parameters under very high heat flux rates will use the equipment. This project is designed to provide fundamental insight into the problem of puff formation in batch-fed rotary kiln incinerators. The second project involves the development of a flow-through bioreactor for degrading short chain chlorinated hydrocarbon pollutants. A third project involves soil gas surveys of contaminated regions to assess their suitability for in situ biodegration. Fundamental field work in this critical environmental area is extremely limited at present. Two minor projects will also utilize the equipment. The first will attempt the prediction of upsets in anaerobic digesters well in advance of conventional techniques. The second project will involve the isolation of bacterial strains capable of degrading compounds currently regarded as non-biodegradable, specifically several short chain chlorinated hydrocarbons. This equipment will significantly improve the research group's ability to make a variety of basic measurements, and it is expected to make a strong positive impact on the university's contributions to environmental research.
