The "Teepee" type wood residue incinerator, similar to
many other sources, requires sampling at the point where the emissions enter the atmosphere. Because the location of the emission
point is hazardous and unpleasant for the operation of a sampling
probe, a portable, tilt-up column was developed which permitted installation, operation,...
An emmission sampling system was developed to measure pollutants
emitted from a mobile agricultural incinerator developed at
Oregon State University. The system was designed to collect a particulate
sample on an 8" x 10" fiber glass filter and collect a gaseous
sample in a plastic bag. Pollutants measured were particulates...
Part 1
The pyrolysis of cis-1-trimethylsiloxy-1-cyclopr opyl-3-cyclononene in the temperature range 285-350° is described. Instead
of siloxy-Cope rearrangement, undesired desiloxylation took place.
Part 2
Gas-phase pyrolytic rearrangement of 2-phenyl-1-trimethylsiloxy-1-vinylcyclononane was investigated in a static system
in the temperature range 213-330°. It was discovered that
three major products resulted: cis- and...
Data collected by personnel of the Geophysics Group at Oregon State
University and the Instituto Oceanografico of the Direccion General dé
Oceanografia are used to construct a free-air anomaly map for the central
part of the Pacific continental margin of Mexico, which shows the gravity
expression of major structural features...
The respiratory tract is lined with a mucous blanket which is
motivated by a ciliated epithelium. This blanket includes a lower
serous layer of fluid through which the cilia beat and an upper viscid
layer into which particulates from the inhaled air are deposited.
The movement of the mucous blanket...
The potassium salts of certain 1-vinylcycloalk-3-en-l-ols have
been found to undergo sigmatropic ring expansion rearrangements in
HMPA. Preliminary investigations of several benzo-substituted medium
ring systems were undertaken in order to determine which of these
was best suited for further study. A synthetic sequence leading to
the formation of 5-methy1-6-viny1-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-6-benzocyclo-octenol,
which...
Seismic refraction measurements along two unreversed lines
indicate that the earth's crust is 26 km thick in southeastern Alaska
and 30 km thick along the Inside Passage of British Columbia. The
crust in southeastern Alaska, north of Dixon Entrance, consists of
a layer 9 km thick with a seismic velocity...
Marine geophysical data from the continental margin of Baja
California and the Gulf of California, and geological and geophysical
data from the Baja California Peninsula and mainland Mexico, outline
the major geologic and tectonic features of the Baja California
Peninsula and the surrounding areas from 24.5° N. Lat. to 27.5°...
The reactions of cyclodeca-1, 2, 5, 8-tetraene with mercuric salts
in solvents of varying nucleophilicity are described. Instead of forming
the usual oxymercuration products reported for reactions of olefins
and allenes with mercuric salts, the major products obtained in the
present cases result from the initial electrophilic addition of the...
