Pleurodesis Trikes is a procedure which obliterates the pleural cavity with the intent of preventing reaccumulation of fluid or air in the pleural cavity.The common indications for performing pleurodesis include malignant pleural effusions and recurrent pneumothorax.Various techniques to perform pleurodesis have been described in the literature.Ple
Modeling, simulations, and Simulink developments in the analysis of optimal control of temperature and pH in a batch ethanol fermentation process
Abstract Transfer of laboratory-scale experiments to production-scale ethanol fermentation is time-consuming and involves expensive prototype systems from complex experimental designs that determine optimal operating conditions for minimal substrate and product inhibitions.The study developed and validated a Simulink-based model for optimal pH and
Acute stress response of fathead minnows caged downstream of municipal wastewater treatment plants in the Bow River, Calgary.
We examined whether exposure to municipal wastewater effluent (MWWE) compromised the stress performance of laboratory-reared fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) in a field setting.Adult minnows were caged at two sites upstream and three sites downstream of wastewater treatments plants (WWTPs) discharging MWWE into the Bow River, Calgary, Alberta,
