Utilization of natural and supplemental biofuels for harvesting energy from marine sediments

Creator:: Nielsen, Mark E.
Abstract:: A benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC) is an electrochemical device that generates current from the redox gradient at the sediment-water interface. Early prototypes had anodes buried in anoxic sediments and cathodes in overlying water. The BMFCs described in this dissertation are based on a chamber design that enables the use...

Sedimentary organic matter : distribution and alteration processes in the coastal upwelling region off Peru

Creator:: Reimers, Clare E.
Abstract:: Recent organic-rich deposits on the Peru continental margin occur along the upper slope (100-450 m) between about ll°S and 16°S and along the lower continental slope (>2000 m). The upper slope deposits reflect high biological production in response to coastal upwelling, but preservation of organic matter is enhanced by the...

Determination of Reaction Product Cross Sections in the ¹³⁶Xe + ²⁰⁸Pb Multi-nucleon Transfer Reaction at E[subscript cm] = 450 MeV

Creator:: Barrett, J. Spencer
Abstract:: The yields of 235 projectile-like and target-like fragments from the interaction of ¹³⁶Xe with a thick target of ²⁰⁸Pb at a center-of-mass energy, E[subscript cm], of 450 MeV were measured using γ-γ-γ coincidence data from Gammasphere and off-line γ-ray spectroscopy. The results give an expansive picture of the production cross...

Bacterial community analysis, new exoelectrogen isolation and enhanced performance of microbial electrochemical systems using nano-decorated anodes

Creator:: Xu, Shoutao
Abstract:: Microbial electrochemical systems (MESs) have attracted much research attention in recent years due to their promising applications in renewable energy generation, bioremediation, and wastewater treatment. In a MES, microorganisms interact with electrodes via electrons, catalyzing oxidation and reduction reactions at the anode and the cathode. The bacterial community of a...

Application of transport-reaction modeling to constrain biogeochemical processes in marine sediments

Creator:: Hong, Wei-Li
Abstract:: Quantifying the mass transport through marine sediments, and the geochemical response to such flow with numerical models has become a common and powerful approach for geochemical data interpretation. In this dissertation, I developed and applied transport-reaction models to unravel complex and interdependent reactions involving carbon, sulfur and silica transformations in...

The influence of early diagenesis on trace element and molybdenum isotope geochemistry

Creator:: Poulson, Rebecca L.
Abstract:: This thesis investigates the influence of early diagenesis on trace metal and molybdenum isotope behavior in marine and lacustrine environments. Chapter one is a synthesis of previous research in all the marine environments investigated, providing an essential geochemical context for interpreting the observed behavior of Mo in these settings. Chapter...

Rationalization and innovative design of asymmetric organocatalysts through computational investigation

Creator:: Johnston, Ryne Connell
Abstract:: My work on computing complex catalyzed organic transformations reveals that only a few subtle chemical factors, e.g. non-classical hydrogen bonding, (hyper)conjugation and steric effects, common across different catalyst manifolds are critical for catalysis and selectivity. Rational manipulation and exploitation of these factors has led to improved catalyst designs, which has...

Drug Discovery from Diverse Bacteria – Bioactivity-guided Isolation of Known and New Metabolites

Creator:: Zhu, Chenxi
Abstract:: Exploring bioactive natural products has contributed largely to clinically approved drugs we have been using over the last 100 years. Especially among the anti-infective drugs, around 70% of currently used antibiotics were discovered or derived from microbial secondary metabolites, among them compounds like vancomycin, chloramphenicol, and erythromycin. Facing the unavoidable...

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) and Aqueous Film-Forming Foam Impacted Sites : New PFAS Discovery and Sorption of Anionic, Zwitterionic, and Cationic PFASs

Creator:: Barzen-Hanson, Krista A.
Abstract:: Public attention and concern about per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are increasing due to detection of PFASs in drinking water supplies, the environment, including remote locations, and wildlife and to the lowering of the federal health advisory levels of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) in drinking water. Aqueous film-forming...

A regional computable general equilibrium model with applications for the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Zheng, Xiaojuan
Abstract:: Many important policy problems entail linkages among multiple economic sectors, and require the use of a general equilibrium economic modeling framework. This economic approach is appropriate when the market for any one good or service is linked to numerous other goods and services, and back to fundamental inputs such as...
