Shale gas is present in hydrocarbon rich shale formations. Shallow gas is commonly defined as gas occurrences in unconsolidated sediments of Tertiary age (often down to depths of 1000 m below surface). The occurrences are positively associated with thick Neogene sediments and are often trapped in anticlinal structures associated with rising salt domes (Muntendam-Bos et al, 2009). Shale has low matrix permeability, so gas production in commercial quantities requires fractures to provide permeability.

It has been subjected to the Agency's peer and administrative review, and has been approved for publication. Mention of trade names of commercial products does not constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. ii ABSTRACT SPARC (SPARC Performs Automated Reasoning in Chemistry) chemical reactivity models were extended to calculate hydrolysis rate constants for carboxylic acid ester and phosphate ester compounds in aqueous non- aqueous and systems strictly from molecular structure. The energy differences between the initial state and the transition state for a molecule of interest are factored into internal and external mechanistic perturbation components. The internal perturbations quantify the interactions of the appended perturber (P) with the reaction center (C). These internal perturbations are factored into SPARC’s mechanistic components of electrostatic and resonance effects. External perturbations quantify the solute-solvent interactions (solvation energy) and are factored into H-bonding, field stabilization and steric effects. These models have been tested using 1471 reliable measured base, acid and general base-catalyzed carboxylic acid ester hydrolysis rate constants in water and in mixed solvent systems at different temperatures.

By FRANKCLOWES ( PTOC. Roy. Soc., 1894, 56, 2-6) .--The experimental flame burning at a platinum jet 1 mm. in diameter, was 0.75 in. in height; it was gradually lowered into a cylinder containing the atmosphere of mixed gases, and these were considered to be in extinctive proportions if the flame was extinguished during its downward passage, or immediately on attaining its lowest position in the cylinder. The gaseous mixture was regarded as containing the minimum quantitr of extinctive gas, when the flame on being lowered into another mixture containing 1 per cent. less of such gas continued to burn in it for a few seconds before being ex- tinguished. Experiments made with flames of hydrogen and Published on 01 January 1895. Downloaded 25/10/2014 07:12:09. alcohol, varying from 0.4 in. to 1.5 in. in height, show that the varying dimensions of the flame are without influence on the proportion of carbonic anhydride in the air necessary to pro- duce extinction. Characteristic differences were observed between the behaviour of wick-fed flames and that of gas-fed flames when they were introduced into an atmosphere which extinguished them, the wick-fed flames gradually diminishing in size until they vanished, whilst the gas-fed flames gradually increased in size, becoming paler and apparently lower in temperature until they suddenly expired.

  • The Iron-Dependent Cyanide and Hydrogen Peroxide Co-Toxicity in Escherichia Coli and Its Catastrophic Consequences for the Chromosome
    THE IRON-DEPENDENT CYANIDE AND HYDROGEN PEROXIDE CO-TOXICITY IN ESCHERICHIA COLI AND ITS CATASTROPHIC CONSEQUENCES FOR THE CHROMOSOME BY TULIP MAHASETH DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Microbiology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Andrei Kuzminov, Chair and Director of Research Professor John E. Cronan Professor Jeffrey F. Gardner Associate Professor Carin K. Vanderpool ABSTRACT 2+ Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can oxidize cytoplasmic ferrous ions (Fe ) to produce highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (•OH) via Fenton’s reaction that can damage various biomolecules causing oxidative stress. Even though at concentrations higher than 20 mM H2O2 by itself can efficiently kill micro-organisms, it is metabolically impossible for eukaryotic cells to generate H2O2, an uncharged molecule, in such large quantities inside the cell. We propose that potentiation of physiologically relevant amounts of H2O2 by various small molecules serves as a more feasible and safe mechanism to combat invading microbes. NO potentiation of H2O2 toxicity is a known bactericidal weapon employed by macrophages. In fact, in human neutrophils activated by bacterial infection, the myeloperoxidase enzyme catalyzes the formation of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) from serum thiocyanate (SCN-). In the past, researchers have reported that a combination of low millimolar doses of H2O2 and cyanide (CN), which are individually bacteriostatic, caused rapid synergistic killing in Escherichia coli. Our aim is to understand the immune cells antimicrobial responses by investigating the mechanism of CN potentiation of H2O2 toxicity and its chromosomal consequences. We have found that the ability of CN to recruit iron from intracellular depots such as ferritin contributes to its potentiation of H2O2 toxicity, whereas the major stationary phase intracellular iron depot protein, Dps, can sequester this iron, thereby quelling Fenton's reaction.
