A countercurrent, liquid-solids contactor was constructed,
operated and evaluated for a continuous ion-exchange operation.
The exchange of cupric and sodium ions between aqueous solutions
and Dowex 50W-X8 ion exchange resin was studied.
The countercurrent contactor consisted of two, three-inch
diameter columns with active sections ranging from one to four feet...
This study investigated the effect of first aid instruction on
college students' attitudes toward safety. It evolved from previous
studies of the relationship between first aid and accidents in Canada
and the United Kingdom. These earlier studies were concerned with the
effect of first aid training on accident rates. The...
Solids movement in large-particle fluidized beds was studied in
an 18 in x 18 in (46 cm x 46 cm) tube-filled, cold fluidized bed
test facility. Direct measurement of local solid mass flux in two
dimensions at various locations inside the bed was made possible
by a new instrument developed...
Models were developed that described cohort strength of female
Dover sole (Microstomus pacificus) and female English sole (Parophrys
vetulus) in stocks off the Columbia River as functions of environmental
variables. The environmental variables considered were those
that could hypothetically influence spawning success or survival.
They included a spawning power index,...
The objectives of this research were to determine the effects of various soil parameters on the reaction of Isopropyl-N-(3-chlorophenyl)Carbamate (CIPC) with a soil and to relate enthalpy values for the adsorption to chemical or physical bonding mechanisms. Six Oregon soils providing a range of pH, organic matter, clay, iron oxide,...
Methods are presented to acquire data from analytical ultracentrifugation experiments
by computer using the absorption optical scanning system of the Beckman Model-E
ultracentrifuge. A computer program was written which analyzes sedimentation velocity
experiments by the van Holde - Weischet method and by the second moment method. The van
Holde -...
