  • Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc
    Metal-Metal (MM) Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc Richard H. Duncan Lyngdoh*,a, Henry F. Schaefer III*,b and R. Bruce King*,b a Department of Chemistry, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong 793022, India B Centre for Computational Quantum Chemistry, University of Georgia, Athens GA 30602 ABSTRACT: This survey of metal-metal (MM) bond distances in binuclear complexes of the first row 3d-block elements reviews experimental and computational research on a wide range of such systems. The metals surveyed are titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, and zinc, representing the only comprehensive presentation of such results to date. Factors impacting MM bond lengths that are discussed here include (a) n+ the formal MM bond order, (b) size of the metal ion present in the bimetallic core (M2) , (c) the metal oxidation state, (d) effects of ligand basicity, coordination mode and number, and (e) steric effects of bulky ligands. Correlations between experimental and computational findings are examined wherever possible, often yielding good agreement for MM bond lengths. The formal bond order provides a key basis for assessing experimental and computationally derived MM bond lengths. The effects of change in the metal upon MM bond length ranges in binuclear complexes suggest trends for single, double, triple, and quadruple MM bonds which are related to the available information on metal atomic radii. It emerges that while specific factors for a limited range of complexes are found to have their expected impact in many cases, the assessment of the net effect of these factors is challenging.

  • Emission Load of Car Service Interiors

Klúčik1 1Department of Transport and Handling, Faculty of Engineering, Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra, Nitra, Slovak Republic 2Department of Machines and Production Systems, Faculty of Engineering, Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra, Nitra, Slovak Republic Abstract Vitázek I., Michalíková D., Vitázková B., Klúčik J. (2016): Emission load of car service interiors. Res. Agr. Eng., 62: 122–128. Car service centres are specific in terms of production of pollutants. The aim of the paper is to assess the quality of indoor environment of car service interiors with respect to the safe range of oxocarbon emission limits, concentration of gaseous and solid aerosols of selected chemical pollutants and occupational noise exposure. Measurements of concen- tration and exposure time indicated that the permitted limits were kept. CO concentration reached values in the range from 0 to 10 ppm, CO2 concentration was observed in the range from 493 to 967 ppm. Concentration of solid aerosol of polyester bitumen reached the maximum value of 0.37 mg/m3, while for gaseous aerosol (e.g. toluene) it equalled 8.114 mg/m3. Measurements of chemical factors were carried out and evaluated by companies with appropriate accredi- tation. Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs) were higher in case of all selected substances. OEL was not demonstrably exceeded at any chemical factor. Noise emissions approached the limit values; therefore, hearing protection is required. Keywords: indoor environment; gaseous emissions; chemical factor; emission limits; noise When undertaking the occupation, time spent in climate of workplaces, residential premises and the workplace may add up to more than a half of the other spaces.

  • Titanium Dioxide Production Final Rule: Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases
    Titanium Dioxide Production Final Rule: Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Under the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) rule, owners or operators of facilities that contain titanium dioxide production processes (as defined below) must report emissions from titanium dioxide production and all other source categories located at the facility for which methods are defined in the rule. Owners or operators are required to collect emission data; calculate GHG emissions; and follow the specified procedures for quality assurance, missing data, recordkeeping, and reporting. How Is This Source Category Defined? The titanium dioxide production source category consists of any facility that uses the chloride process to produce titanium dioxide. What GHGs Must Be Reported? Each titanium dioxide production facility must report carbon dioxide (CO2) process emissions from each chloride process line. In addition, each facility must report GHG emissions for other source categories for which calculation methods are provided in the rule. For example, facilities must report CO2, nitrous oxide (N2O), and methane (CH4) emissions from each stationary combustion unit on site by following the requirements of 40 CFR part 98, subpart C (General Stationary Fuel Combustion Sources). Please refer to the relevant information sheet for a summary of the rule requirements for calculating and reporting emissions from any other source categories at the facility. How Must GHG Emissions Be Calculated? Reporters must calculate CO2 process emissions using one of two methods, as appropriate: • Installing and operating a continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) according to the requirements specified in 40 CFR part 98, subpart C. • Calculating the process CO2 emissions for each process line using monthly measurements of the mass and carbon content of calcined petroleum coke.

  • Carbon Dioxide Exposure Effects – Fact Sheet
    CARBON DIOXIDE EXPOSURE EFFECTS – FACT SHEET Studies by NIOSH in 1976 dispelled the myth that carbon dioxide is an asphyxiant gas and only causes adverse health effects when it displaces oxygen. Symptoms of overexposure by inhalation include dizziness, headache, nausea, rapid breathing, shortness of breath, deeper breathing, increased heart rate (tachycardia), eye and extremity twitching, cardiac arrhythmia, memory disturbances, lack of concentration, visual and hearing disturbances (including photophobia, blurred vision, transient blindness, hearing loss and ringing in the ears), sweating, restlessness, vomiting, shaking, confusion, flushed skin, panic, parathesis (a sensation of numbness in the extremities), disorientation, convulsions, unconsciousness, coma, and death. CO2 Duration Physiological Impact/Health Effect Concentration 1,000 ppm Less than Impairs judgment, decision-making ability, and thinking skills on a 2½ hrs. short-term basis, even for healthy individuals. 2,500 ppm Less than Many individuals are rendered cognitively marginal or 2½ hrs. dysfunctional. 5,000 ppm with Headache, lethargy, mental slowness, emotional irritation, and 20.9% Oxygen sleep disruption. 6% 1-2 mins. Hearing and visual disturbances 7% (70,000 ppm) 5 mins. death with 20.9% Oxygen 10% to 15% Dizziness, drowsiness, severe muscle twitching, unconsciousness and death within a few minutes. Within 1 Loss of controlled and purposeful activity, unconsciousness, coma, 17% to 30% min. convulsions, and death 30% carbon 30 secs. Unconsciousness, with some subjects having seizures that were dioxide, with 70% characterized as decerebrate (no cerebral functioning). oxygen Even though oxygen is necessary to carry out cell functions, it is not the lack of oxygen that stimulates breathing. Breathing is stimulated by an excess of CO2.
