Pulmonary Surfactant: the Key to the Evolution of Air Breathing Christopher B

Henry's Law Constants and Micellar Partitioning of Volatile Organic
38 J. Chem. Eng. Data 2000, 45, 38-47 Henry’s Law Constants and Micellar Partitioning of Volatile Organic Compounds in Surfactant Solutions Leland M. Vane* and Eugene L. Giroux United States Environmental Protection Agency, National Risk Management Research Laboratory, 26 West Martin Luther King Drive, Cincinnati, Ohio 45268 Partitioning of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into surfactant micelles affects the apparent vapor- liquid equilibrium of VOCs in surfactant solutions. This partitioning will complicate removal of VOCs from surfactant solutions by standard separation processes. Headspace experiments were performed to quantify the effect of four anionic surfactants and one nonionic surfactant on the Henry’s law constants of 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, toluene, and tetrachloroethylene at temperatures ranging from 30 to 60 °C. Although the Henry’s law constant increased markedly with temperature for all solutions, the amount of VOC in micelles relative to that in the extramicellar region was comparatively insensitive to temperature. The effect of adding sodium chloride and isopropyl alcohol as cosolutes also was evaluated. Significant partitioning of VOCs into micelles was observed, with the micellar partitioning coefficient (tendency to partition from water into micelle) increasing according to the following series: trichloroethane < trichloroethylene < toluene < tetrachloroethylene. The addition of surfactant was capable of reversing the normal sequence observed in Henry’s law constants for these four VOCs. Introduction have long taken advantage of the high Hc values for these compounds. In the engineering field, the most common Vast quantities of organic solvents have been disposed method of dealing with chlorinated solvents dissolved in of in a manner which impacts human health and the groundwater is “pump & treat”swithdrawal of ground- environment. -
A History of Octopush
A History of Octopush Written by Ken Kirby from articles by Alan Blake, E. John Towse and Cliff Underwood and with reference to BOA archive documents. Sub aqua diving around the coast of Great Britain in wintertime is not the most fun thing to do for most divers. Many turn to their local swimming pool to practise and keep fit. In 1954 Alan Blake, the Club Secretary of the Southsea British Sub Aqua Club decided to find a more fun way of spending time in a swimming pool and started to come up with ideas. Several schemes were mooted and discarded as impractical but one day in Jack and Ena Willis’s kitchen drinking tea along with Frank and Hazel Lilleker, and his wife Sylvia, Alan laid out his plans for a winter sport that they could hopefully develop. His plan was for teams of eight to propel a circular disc - possibly made of lead – with short sticks, to opposite ends of the swimming pool. As keen divers they wanted to maintain their links with the sea so they named the disc a Squid and the scoring area a Cuttle (later re-named the gulley). The short wooden stick became a pusher as that is what it was used for. The name of the game was simple - eight players gave them Octo and pushing the squid gave them Octo-push. (Although it was quickly realised 8 players on each side rather fills a swimming pool so teams were later reduced to 6 a side in the playing area). It has been suggested that knocking a diving weight around the bottom of the swimming pool with snorkels was the origin of Octopush, but at no time did this happen. -
Dive Theory Guide
DIVE THEORY STUDY GUIDE by Rod Abbotson CD69259 © 2010 Dive Aqaba Guidelines for studying: Study each area in order as the theory from one subject is used to build upon the theory in the next subject. When you have completed a subject, take tests and exams in that subject to make sure you understand everything before moving on. If you try to jump around or don’t completely understand something; this can lead to gaps in your knowledge. You need to apply the knowledge in earlier sections to understand the concepts in later sections... If you study this way you will retain all of the information and you will have no problems with any PADI dive theory exams you may take in the future. Before completing the section on decompression theory and the RDP make sure you are thoroughly familiar with the RDP, both Wheel and table versions. Use the appropriate instructions for use guides which come with the product. Contents Section One PHYSICS ………………………………………………page 2 Section Two PHYSIOLOGY………………………………………….page 11 Section Three DECOMPRESSION THEORY & THE RDP….……..page 21 Section Four EQUIPMENT……………………………………………page 27 Section Five SKILLS & ENVIRONMENT…………………………...page 36 PHYSICS SECTION ONE Light: The speed of light changes as it passes through different things such as air, glass and water. This affects the way we see things underwater with a diving mask. As the light passes through the glass of the mask and the air space, the difference in speed causes the light rays to bend; this is called refraction. To the diver wearing a normal diving mask objects appear to be larger and closer than they actually are. -
