Endpoint Evaluation for 200-PW-1 Operable Unit Soil Vapor Extraction, Hanford Site, Washington - 16478

On the Central Plateau of the Hanford Site in semi-arid southeast Washington State, the 216-Z-9 Trench, 216-Z-1A Tile Field, and 216-Z-18 Crib were used from 1955 to 1973 for soil column disposal of liquid wastes containing carbon tetrachloride. The geological setting underneath these disposal areas consists of an approximately 70 m thick vadose zone with a nominally 5 m thick low-permeability layer at a depth of 30 m. Infiltration of the liquid waste through the vadose zone to the groundwater was driven by the liquid volume introduced during disposal. Carbon tetrachloride readily volatilises in the vadose zone, making soil vapor extraction (SVE) the preferred remediation technology. Between 1992 and 2012, SVE recovered 80,107 kg of carbon tetrachloride from the vadose zone below the three waste sites. Of this total recovery, 93 percent was removed during the first 5 years of operations. The last 7 percent was recovered in the last 16 years of operation. In 2011, a final cleanup level of 100 ppmv for carbon tetrachloride in soil vapor was established in the record of decision for the 200-PW-1 Operable Unit, which includes the three carbon tetrachloride waste sites. The final cleanup decision specified that soil vapor concentrations and the cleanup level would be further refined and assessed in the future to ensure groundwater protection. A subsequent treatability test was conducted and the results were used to further refine the definition of vadose zone source conditions that are protective of groundwater. Based on this treatability test, predictions indicate that current and future vadose zone conditions will meet groundwater protection objectives. SVE operations were not performed in 2013, 2014, and 2015, and soil vapor concentrations in all SVE wells (and all but two monitoring probes installed using direct-push technology) remained below the 100 ppmv cleanup level during this time. SVE endpoint guidance was prepared in 2013 as a joint effort between Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This SVE guidance was used to develop a path forward for the 200-PW-1 Operable Unit SVE remedy. The guidance asks the following questions: 1. Are data collected to date adequate to support a well-defined conceptual site model? 2. Have remediation goals (cleanup levels) been defined? 3. Are environmental pathways and risk understood well enough to support site closeout? 4. Will remaining contamination in the vadose zone cause groundwater cleanup levels to be exceeded? If the answer to the first three questions is 'Yes', and the answer to the fourth question is 'No', then the site is ready for closure. At this time, the site has compiled appropriate information to answer these questions to support a remedy decision to terminate SVE operations. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recently provided concurrence that termination of SVE operations within the 200-PW-1 Operable Unit is appropriate. (authors)

Challenges and Solutions in Operation and Lay-Up of the Modular Caustic- Side Solvent Extraction Unit - 20078

The Modular Caustic-Side Solvent Extraction (CSSX) Unit (MCU) was designed and constructed to provide interim salt waste processing so that the Liquid Waste Disposition Program (LWDP) could continue waste removal and tank closure until start-up of the Salt Waste Processing Facility (SWPF). MCU processes Clarified Salt Solution (CSS), or salt solution (SS) that has undergone actinide removal/filtration, to produce two waste streams: the cesium laden Strip Effluent (SE), which is incorporated into glass at the Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF), and the cesium depleted Decontaminated SS (DSS), which is incorporated into grout at the Saltstone Production Facility (SPF). MCU completed start-up in 2008 with an initial operating life of 3 years and design life of 5 years. Prior to reaching the end of the design life, multiple critical components were upgraded and/or replaced to mitigate risks associated with any delays in SWPF start-up. During the remainder of operation (until June 2019), MCU was challenged to maximize processing with minimal additional modifications to repair/improve aging infrastructure, while maintaining low levels of risk to workers and the environment. Notable challenges during the extended operating life of the facility involved both mechanical and operational issues. Two of the most significant issues were the increased frequency of Process Vessel Ventilation (PVV) High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter change-outs and the biofouling of the SE coalescer (SEC). The major impacts of both issues were that replacement of these components 1) resulted in high exposure to workers, and 2) required substantial downtime, thus hindering achievement of processing goals. PVV HEPA filter replacements are required based on dose rate and differential pressure (dP) limits. After introducing a higher-curie feed to MCU, the operating time between change outs was reduced by approximately half. SEC replacements are required based on dP limits. After restarting from an extended outage, the operating life of the SEC was significantly reduced by more than half due to biofouling. As a result of extensive troubleshooting and process improvements, the facility was able to recover performance and extend the operating life of the PVV HEPA filters and the SEC media. Through troubleshooting both of these issues, the facility was also able to learn from prior experience and adapt in order to minimize down time and maintain throughput. Although the facility took advantage of short periods of downtime to perform nonintrusive troubleshooting and minor corrective/preventative maintenance activities, longer outages were periodically required for corrective maintenance involving process cell entry. During these outages, remote tools and specialized shield plates were employed to minimize dose to workers. Mock-ups of non-routine maintenance activities were critical to early identification of potential issues and improvements, which shortened outage duration. Consistent with the facility's operational strategy, evolutions needed for MCU layup were identified and sequenced to ensure safe conditions within the facility, meet pre-defined criteria for lay-up configuration, and protect workers, while minimizing the impact to SWPF integration. De-inventory and flushing of process areas was prioritized so that the total residual inventory was reduced as efficiently as possible. This paper discusses lessons learned and best practices from troubleshooting unique issues, performing complex maintenance activities, and implementing a layup strategy that best supports the overall system mission.

Investigating the Impacts of Direct Dissolution Conditions on the Radiolytic Longevity of Butyramide Extractants

Removing the nitric acid (HNO3) dissolution step in used nuclear fuel (UNF) reprocessing would reduce the volume of radioactive waste streams generated, thereby, improving process efficiency. A promising strategy for this is the direct dissolution of UNF that has been pretreated by voloxidation into an organic solvent composed of specialized extractants and diluent. However, removal of the aqueous HNO3 phase from the envisioned reprocessing system has the potential to drastically change the suite of radiation-induced processes occurring, and thus, alter the longevity of proposed reagents. Furthermore, the impacts of fission product and transuranic metal ion complexation on the aforementioned radiation-induced processes is poorly understood, and yet can cause significant changes in radiolytic longevity. To bridge these knowledge gaps and support the continued development of direct dissolution strategies, we present an investigation into the impacts of direct dissolution conditions on the gamma radiation-induced degradation of N,N-di-(2-ethylhexyl) butyramide (DEHBA) and N,N-di-(2-ethylhexyl)isobutyramide (DEHiBA) ligands—candidate replacements for tributyl phosphate—in pre-equilibrated n-dodecane solvent in the presence and absence of envisioned loading amounts of uranium.

Effect of Palladium‐Tetrakis(Triphenylphosphine) Catalyst Traces on Charge Recombination and Extraction in Non‐Fullerene‐based Organic Solar Cells

Abstract The effect of the cross‐coupling catalyst tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 ) on the performance of a model organic bulk‐heterojunction solar cell composed of a blend of poly([2,6′‐4,8‐di(5‐ethylhexylthienyl)benzo[1,2‐b;3,3‐b]dithiophene]{3‐fluoro‐2[(2‐ethylhexyl)carbonyl]thieno[3,4‐b]thiophenediyl}) (PTB7‐Th) donor and 3,9‐bis(2‐methylene‐((3‐(1,1‐dicyanomethylene)‐6,7‐difluoro)‐indanone))‐5,5,11,11‐tetrakis(4‐hexylphenyl)‐dithieno[2,3‐d:2′,3′‐d′]‐s‐indaceno[1,2‐b:5,6‐b′]dithiophene (IOTIC‐4F) non‐fullerene acceptor is investigated. The effect of intentional addition of different amounts of Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 on morphology, free charge carrier generation, non‐geminate bulk trap‐ and surface trap‐assisted recombination as well as bimolecular recombination and charge extraction is quantified. This work shows that free charge carrier generation is affected significantly, while the impact of Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 on non‐geminate recombination processes is limited because the catalyst does not facilitate efficient trap‐assisted recombination. The studied system shows substantial robustness towards the addition of Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 in small amounts.

Efficient Light Extraction of Organic Light-Emitting Diodes on a Fully Solution-Processed Flexible Substrate

A flexible, nanocomposite substrate for maximizing light outcoupling efficiencies of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is introduced. In depth investigation is performed on designing the integrated strategy based on considerations of surface conductivity, microcavity tuning, and internal light scattering. The resulting nanocomposite substrate consists of silver nanowires as the electrode and a high-index polymer layer and a light-scattering layer for light extraction. It is able to outcouple both the waveguide and the substrate modes, two modes accounting for significant losses in OLED device efficiency. With enhanced light outcoupling, white OLEDs subsequently fabricated on the nanocomposite substrates demonstrate performance metrics of 107 lm W -1 power efficiency and 49% external quantum efficiency at 1000 cd m -2 . Thus, the nanocomposite substrate is fabricated by solution processes at low temperatures for potentially low manufacturing cost.

Mixed Domains Enhance Charge Generation and Extraction in Bulk-Heterojunction Solar Cells with Small-Molecule Donors

The interplay between nanomorphology and efficiency of polymer-fullerene bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells has been the subject of intense research, but the generality of these concepts for small-molecule (SM) BHJs remains unclear. Here in this paper, the relation between performance; charge generation, recombination, and extraction dynamics; and nanomorphology achievable with two SM donors benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b]dithiophene-pyrido[3,4-b]-pyrazine BDT(PPTh 2 ) 2 , namely SM1 and SM2, differing by their side-chains, are examined as a function of solution additive composition. The results show that the additive 1,8-diiodooctane acts as a plasticizer in the blends, increases domain size, and promotes ordering/crystallinity. Surprisingly, the system with high domain purity (SM1) exhibits both poor exciton harvesting and severe charge trapping, alleviated only slightly with increased crystallinity. In contrast, the system consisting of mixed domains and lower crystallinity (SM2) shows both excellent exciton harvesting and low charge recombination losses. Importantly, the onset of large, pure crystallites in the latter (SM2) system reduces efficiency, pointing to possible differences in the ideal morphologies for SM-based BHJ solar cells compared with polymer-fullerene devices. Lastly, in polymer-based systems, tie chains between pure polymer crystals establish a continuous charge transport network, whereas SM-based active layers may in some cases require mixed domains that enable both aggregation and charge percolation to the electrodes.

Development of rapid bioconversion with integrated recycle technology for ethanol production from extractive ammonia pretreated corn stover

ABSTRACT High enzyme loading and low productivity are two major issues impeding low cost ethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass. This work applied rapid bioconversion with integrated recycle technology (RaBIT) and extractive ammonia (EA) pretreatment for conversion of corn stover (CS) to ethanol at high solids loading. Enzymes were recycled via recycling unhydrolyzed solids. Enzymatic hydrolysis with recycled enzymes and fermentation with recycled yeast cells were studied. Both enzymatic hydrolysis time and fermentation time were shortened to 24 h. Ethanol productivity was enhanced by two times and enzyme loading was reduced by 30%. Glucan and xylan conversions reached as high as 98% with an enzyme loading of as low as 8.4 mg protein per g glucan. The overall ethanol yield was 227 g ethanol/kg EA‐CS (191 g ethanol/kg untreated CS). Biotechnol. Bioeng. 2017;114: 1713–1720. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Protein3D: Enabling analysis and extraction of metal‐containing sites from the Protein Data Bank with molSimplify

Abstract Metalloenzymes catalyze a wide range of chemical transformations, with the active site residues playing a key role in modulating chemical reactivity and selectivity. Unlike smaller synthetic catalysts, a metalloenzyme active site is embedded in a larger protein, which makes interrogation of electronic properties and geometric features with quantum mechanical calculations challenging. Here we implement the ability to fetch crystallographic structures from the Protein Data Bank and analyze the metal binding sites in the program molSimplify. We show the usefulness of the newly created protein3D class to extract the local environment around non‐heme iron enzymes containing a two histidine motif and prepare 372 structures for quantum mechanical calculations. Our implementation of protein3D serves to expand the range of systems molSimplify can be used to analyze and will enable high‐throughput study of metal‐containing active sites in proteins.

Broccoli seed extract rich in polysaccharides and glucoraphanin ameliorates DSS ‐induced colitis via intestinal barrier protection and gut microbiota modulation in mice

Abstract BACKGROUND Broccoli has received widespread attention because of its anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant effects. The present study aimed to explore the composition of broccoli seed extract (BSE) and its effect on colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). RESULTS BSE mainly comprises glucoraphanin and polysaccharides composed of arabinose, galactose, glucose and mannose. Animal experiments suggested that BSE intervention effectively reversed body weight loss, suppressed the levels of proinflammatory interleukin‐6, tumor necrosis factor‐α and interleukin‐1β, and elevated the levels of anti‐inflammatory interleukin‐10 and the activities of superoxide dismutase and glutathione in DSS‐induced colitis mice. According to histopathologic and immunohistochemical analysis of colon tissue, BSE intervention may repair the intestinal barrier by upregulating mRNA levels and the expression of tight junction proteins (claudin‐1, occludin and zonula occludens‐1). Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (MS) analysis demonstrated that cecal short‐chain fatty acids in mice with BSE administration were significantly increased compared with the model group. Sulforaphane and sulforaphane‐ N ‐acetylcysteine were only detected in BSE group mice by ultra‐performance liquid chromatography‐MS analysis. In addition, BSE intervention evidently increased the abundance of Alistipeds , Coriobacteriaceae UCG‐002 and Bifidobacterium and decreased the abundance of Escheichia‐Shinella , Lachnospiraceae others , Parabacteroides , Ruminococcaceae others and Turicibacter , which possibly promoted carbohydrate metabolism and short‐chain fatty acid production. CONCLUSION The present study aimed to elucidate the effect of BSE on colitis and found that BSE, as a novel food ingredient, has great potential for the improvement of colitis. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Effects of nonionic surfactants on pigment excretion and cell morphology in extractive fermentation of Monascus sp. NJ1

Abstract BACKGROUND Different nonionic surfactants in submerged fermentation of Monascus sp. demonstrate significant differences regarding increasing pigment yield. In this study, 15 surfactants from five series were analyzed to investigate the influence of nonionic surfactants on Monascus pigments, with the aim of simultaneously obtaining a novel nonionic surfactant. RESULTS Addition of the novel surfactant Brij 35 greatly enhanced pigment excretion and demonstrated good biocompatibility. Extracellular red, orange and yellow pigments increased by 1.47‐, 1.71‐ and 2.07‐fold respectively. Production of extracellular pigments was not only related to the hydrophile–lipophile balance value (HLB) but also affected by the cloud point temperature (CP) of the fermentation medium. It was found that nonionic surfactants can improve cell membrane permeability and cell storage capacity by modifying the cell walls of Monascus mycelium and by increasing lipid droplet levels, enhancing pigment excretion. Different nonionic surfactants modify Monascus mycelium to different degrees. CONCLUSION The novel surfactant Brij 35, which has good capacity for pigment extraction and biocompatibility, was identified in the analysis. The effects of nonionic surfactants on the secretion of pigments are related to not only the modification of the cell wall and internal structure but also the CP and HLB. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry

The Reductive Leaching of Chalcopyrite by Chromium(II) Chloride for the Rapid and Complete Extraction of Copper

A hydrometallurgical process is developed to lower the costs of copper production and thereby sustain the use of copper throughout the global transition to renewable energy technologies. The unique feature of the hydrometallurgical process is the reductive treatment of chalcopyrite, which is in contrast to the oxidative treatment more commonly pursued in the literature. Chalcopyrite reduction by chromium(II) ion is described for the first time and superior kinetics are shown. At high concentrate loadings of 39, 78, and 117 gL –1 , chalcopyrite reacted completely within minutes at room temperature and pressure. The XRD, SEM-EDS, and XPS measurements indicate that chalcopyrite reacts to form copper(I) chloride (CuCl). After the reductive treatment, the mineral products are leached by iron(III) sulfate to demonstrate the complete extraction of copper. The chromium(II) ion may be regenerated by an electrolysis unit inspired by an iron chromium flow battery in a practical industrial process.

Selective Information Extraction Strategies for Cancer Pathology Reports with Convolutional Neural Networks

To trust model predictions, it is important to ensure new data scored by the model comes from the same population used for model training. If the model is used to score new data different than the model’s training data, then predictions and model performance metrics cannot be trusted. Identifying and excluding these anomalous data points is an important task when using models in the real world. Traditional machine learning algorithms and classifiers don’t have the capability to abstain in this case. Here we propose a data-novelty detection algorithm for the Convolutional Neural Network classifier, yielding a rejection score for each new data point scored. It is a post-modeling procedure which examines the distribution of convolution filters to determine if the prediction should be trusted. We apply this algorithm to an information extraction model for a natural language text corpus. We evaluated the algorithm performance using a primary cancer site classification model applied to cancer pathology reports. Results demonstrate that the algorithm is an effective way to exclude cancer pathology reports from model scoring when they do not contain the expected information necessary to accurately classify the primary cancer type.

Light dilaton in rare meson decays and extraction of its CP property

Abstract The dilatonϕis a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson associated with the spontaneous breaking of scale invariance in a nearly conformal theory, and couples to the trace of the stress-energy tensor. We analyze experimental constraints on a light dilaton with mass in the MeV–GeV range from rare meson decays. New model-independent inclusive bounds for theb→sϕtransition largely exclude the parameter space of a light dilaton that could explain the muong− 2 anomaly. Despite similarities between a dilaton and a Higgs-portal scalar, the dilaton-photon coupling is enhanced compared to the Higgs-portal scalar due to contributions from loops of the conformal sector. Consequently, the shortened lifetime of the dilaton relaxes bounds fromK→π+ invisible searches at the NA62 experiment and constraints from the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We utilize this fact to search for the dilaton signature at a lepton collider such as the ongoing Belle II experiment. Further, we demonstrate how to extract the CP property of the dilaton using the variation of the differential cross-section ofe + e − →e + e − ϕwith the azimuthal angle between the outgoing leptons.

Simultaneous CTEQ-TEA extraction of PDFs and SMEFT parameters from jet and $t\bar{t}$ data

Recasting phenomenological Lagrangians in terms of SM effective field theory (SMEFT) provides a valuable means of connecting potential BSM physics at momenta well above the electroweak scale to experimental signatures at lower energies. In this work we jointly fit the Wilson coefficients of SMEFT operators as well as the PDFs in an extension of the CT18 global analysis framework, obtaining self-consistent constraints to possible BSM physics effects. Global fits are boosted with machine-learning techniques in the form of neural networks to ensure efficient scans of the full PDF+SMEFT parameter space. We focus on several operators relevant for top-quark pair and jet production at hadron colliders and obtain constraints on the Wilson coefficients with Lagrange Multiplier scans. We find mild correlations between the extracted Wilson coefficients, PDFs, and other QCD parameters, and see indications that these correlations may become more prominent in future analyses based on data of higher precision. This work serves as a new platform for joint analyses of SM and BSM physics based on the CTEQ-TEA framework.

Extraction of partonic transverse momentum distributions from semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering, Drell-Yan and Z-boson production

We present an extraction of unpolarized partonic transverse momentum distributions (TMDs) from a simultaneous fit of available data measured in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering, Drell-Yan and Z boson production. To connect data at different scales, we use TMD evolution at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. The analysis is restricted to the low-transverse-momentum region, with no matching to fixed-order calculations at high transverse momentum. We introduce specific choices to deal with TMD evolution at low scales, of the order of 1 GeV 2 . Furthermore, this could be considered as a first attempt at a global fit of TMDs.

Exclusive production of a pair of high transverse momentum photons in pion-nucleon collisions for extracting generalized parton distributions

We show that exclusive production of a pair of high transverse momentum photons in pion-nucleon collisions can be systematically studied in QCD factorization approach if the photon’s transverse momentum q T with respect to the colliding pion is much greater than Λ QCD . We demonstrate that the leading power non-perturbative contributions to the scattering amplitudes of this exclusive process are process-independent and can be systematically factorized into universal pion’s distribution amplitudes (DAs) and nucleon’s generalized parton distributions (GPDs), which are convoluted with corresponding infrared safe and perturbatively calculable short-distance hard parts. The correction to this factorized expression is suppressed by powers of 1/q T . We demonstrate quantitatively that this new type of exclusive processes is not only complementary to existing processes for extracting GPDs, but also capable of providing an enhanced sensitivity to the dependence of both DAs and GPDs on the active parton’s momentum fraction x. We also introduce additional, but the same type of exclusive observables to enhance our capability to explore GPDs, in particular, their x-dependence.

Extracting the asymptotic behavior of S-matrix elements from their phases

The asymptotic kinematic limits of S-matrices are dominated by large logarithms which, roughly speaking, fall into two categories: those which are controlled by a renormalization group (RG) scale, which we may think of as logs involving ratios of invariant mass scales, and those which are functions of ratios of rapidities, so called “rapidity logs”. It has been pointed out by Caron-Huot and Wilhlem [1] that RG anomalous dimension can be extracted from the phase of the S-matrix, which can greatly simplify calculations via unitarity methods. In this paper we generalize the results of [1] to show that the phase can be used to reconstruct rapidity anomalous dimensions, by performing a special type of complex boost. The methodology introduced allows one to calculate without the need for a rapidity regulator which can lead to significant simplifications. We demonstrate the use of this method to derive the rapidity anomalous dimensions in the Sudakov form factor and the two parton soft function at two loops order.

Oxidative stress induced apoptosis mediated anticancer activity of Rhus typhina fruits extract in human colon cancer

The present work was tested the anti-proliferation activity of Rhus typhina fruits extract (RTFE) in HEK293 and HT-29 cells, and studied their underlying mechanisms through the analysis of oxidative stress and apoptosis-related genes expressions by flow cytometer and RT-qPCR. In addition, the bioactive constituents were identified from RTFE by chromatography and NMR analysis. Among the various type of the fractions from the RTFE, the ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) was showed the potent anti proliferation effect in HT-29 cells. Thus EAF was selected for the further extensive analysis. Cytotoxcity and RT-qPCR results revealed that the treatment of EAF significantly inhibit the growth of the HT-29 cells by the up regulating of Bax and down regulation of Bcl-2, Survivn, AIF and SOD-2 gene expressions in time and dose dependent manner. Followed by sub G1 accumulation and the G0/G1 phase arrest, ROS production, and mitochondrial transmembrane potential (ΔΨm). Finally, the active anti-proliferations agents such as luteolin and luteolin-7-O-glucuronide were identified from EAF by NMR. This work suggests that EAF could be a functional food to treat the chronic diseases.
