Effect of equipotent mixture of nitrate, atrazine & imidacloprid on gastrointestinal cell viability
Presented on April 24, 2024, at the 2024 Emerging Contaminants in the Environment Conference by Chamia Chatman - Graduate Research Assistant at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Abstract: Livestock like humans may become exposed to complex mixtures of agricultural chemicals via oral ingestion of contaminated groundwater. Therefore, we aimed to elucidate the potential chemical-biological interactions and adverse outcome pathways associated with complex mixtures of agricultural chemicals detected in the 2021 Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection’s (DATCP) Groundwater Quality Report. We determined that Portage, Waushara, Waupaca, and Pepin counties contained levels of atr...

Embodied Carbon Strategies and Metrics
In the method where you are using MnO2 electrodes, you have mentioned taking symmetrical system. In that case from pristine MnO2 how can we extract H+ in the anode compartment in the initial cycle? Please clarify
A good review of bonded amine chemistry for carbon dioxide capture. Degradation of bonded amines, and especially impregnated amines (TEPA) can be a significant issue. The bigger issue is scale. A 500 MW natural gas plant produces ~6,000 tons of CO2 per day. There is no way that an adsorption process can keep up with this. Shell's Cansolve amine based carbon capture process works really well, it's a bulk phase capture (absorbtion) that matches the flow rate and volume of CO2 produced.

Good lecture
Thanks for a lot of great information about pfas❤
Fantastic lecture, thank you for making this available to the public!
This is a great video. Thank you for sharing!
The best definition for Biochar I have seen is Charcoal that has been innoculated with biology. IE living Char. It is too bad, you didn't figure out how to bake stuff to make char, it is just low or no oxygen which I have used everything from a cookie tin thrown in a fire to a TLUD in a 55 gallon drum. I tried to use the oven once but that was a smokey mess. :)
Could we get the application regarding toxicity of microplastics?
Im only 14 and this was really informative! Thank you for teaching the public.

this chemical is killing salmon in our creeks here on Vancouver Island. it's been proven. it needs to be banned.
At 250 to 450 Centigrade PFAS will under go thermal desorption and/or thermal decomposition depending on chain length and functional group. What data do you have from the pyrolysis gas and condensate is free of any PFAS? If biosolids will carbonize, then so will PFAS as it has a carbon backbone. Have you do total fluorine analysis for a mass balance?
Wow beautiful thanks
After watching this presentation I have concluded that this evaluation of the WCTI ultra-soft Makeup for Cooling Tower operation was flawed from its inception and application. The focus was on water savings without taking into account all of the other benefits with taking the CT Systems up to the 100x - 200x COC range. The failure to attain microbiological control and corrosion control for mild steel, were directly caused by not achieving the WCTI target pH, TDS and SiO2 concentrations through natural evaporative concentration. This critique of WCTI chemistry and its effectiveness documented how the process can be corrupted by mixing traditional chemical treatment philosophy into the program. Adding SiO2 to operating CT Systems is not recommended by WCTI because if the concentrated SiO2 product is not uniformly diluted at least 1:10 before injection into a turbulent, circulating CT water stream, the high OH- alkalinity contributed by the product and the high local concentration of SiO2 will drive CaCO3 scale formation and co-precipitation of MgSiO2. This will result in a tenacious, difficult-to-dissolve deposit. Naturally cycling the ultra-soft MU water into the 100x to 200x range will result in Total Hardness less than 30 ppm, pH in the 9.7 -10.0 range, SiO2 >200 ppm and TDS >20,000 ppm. Under these conditions, the corrosion rates and microbiological activity will be greatly improved over the data presented in this study. The background, guidelines and results are presented in a paper published by the Journal "PATHOGENS" that can be accessed online. Do a GOOGLE search on "Lon Brouse Pathogens." I was the chemical consultant and lead author of this paper, titled, "Natural Pathogen Control Chemistry to Replace Toxic Treatment of Microbes and Biofilm in Cooling Towers" 2016. I authored a follow-up article titled "Biofilm and Pathogen Inhibition in Cooling Towers Using Natural Chemistry," that was published in March of 2020, available online at encyclopedia.pub/259 that presented additional field data from two large data centers, one on the east U.S. coast and another on the west coast. These articles will give a much more accurate representation of the results that can be obtained using properly administered WCTI chemistry. Effective control of very large data center cooling towers continues to this day and is a testament to the process.
I'd like to see who is paying this speaker's salary because it sounds like he is biased AGAINST this amazing process that can put chemical fertilizer producers out of business! Which is a very good thing! We KNOW what these chemicals are doing to the soil, and they are destroying the planet!
It's amazing that supposed "scientists" are wasting time and money on carbon capture. Hopefully, you get the opportunity and motivation to ask Is CO2 a problem and why do I believe that CO2 is bad. The data is available for the initiated...

I'm facing problem to check nitrate absorption onto biochar..as I'm using spectrophotometeric method (APHA) for it... Can u suggest me any solution to it?
very good presentation.
When you mention acid & alkaline treatments, would these include H2SO4 & NaOH...? Have you made an attempt to steam the biochar with RO H2O which (should) 'activate' the media?

Great video but not on earphones ,the microphone rumble from the speakers clothing moving and being picked up by mic is super disturbing to the ear. This video needs an audio high pass filter run through it to make it earphone friendly.
morgellons cover story or scapegoat LOL .. the microfibers are actually from the manufacturer of the dryers... just looked inside of my dryer and there is some insulation like material looks wooly almost on both the front and back end like a "weather stripping" or seal inside the dryer drum and is the source of the microfibers not our clothes.. my clothes fibers do not fluoresce under UV light but the microfibers on them which is minimal compared to the fabric volume of the clothes do, and those fibers are again source from inside the dryer at the fiber seal at front and back .... shall klausy and company dictate what we can wear and when we can do laundry for 2030 also?
