Feasibility study for the use of a fuel cell to process landfill gas at Coffin Butte Landfill : hydrogen sulfide (H2S) detection and removal

Creator:

Tuinstra, Hannah May

Abstract:

Pacific Northwest Generating Cooperative (PNGC) operates the Landfill Gas to Energy Facility at Coffin Butte Landfill in Corvallis, OR. At this facility, three internal combustion engines use the landfill gas (predominantly methane and carbon dioxide) as fuel to turn generators that produce enough electricity to power 1,800 average sized homes....

Plasma enhanced growth of carbon nanotubes

Creator:

Ford, Neil I.

Abstract:

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are grown using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). A modified radio frequency (RF) parallel-plate plasma etching system serves as the growth reactor. The effects of process parameters, including temperature, pressure, and C2H2:NH3 ratio, are studied. CNTs are grown on glass substrates with Al underlayers and Ni...

The Influence of grazing on active γ-Proteobacteria cells

Creator:

Wilson, Michelle Juliette

Abstract:

By identifying the relationships between abundance and metabolic activity in a bacterial community, we advance our knowledge of the marine carbon cycle. In the present study, our goal was to examine the role of protist grazing on the metabolic activity of γ- Proteobacteria in the upwelling system off the Oregon...
