The use of dechlorinating chemicals for removal of chlorine from spent membrane cleaning solutions was investigated. Addition of calcium thiosulfate resulted in a decrease in pH at low dosages of ...

What's good for us is not necessarily good for fish. Nathan Hill looks at measures to combat chlorine in the aquarium. Chlorine, and its more persistent but lesser-seen cousin chloramine, is in our ...

Penn State University—University Park, Pennsylvania, Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering, August 2011. Dissertation Title:“Spatial and Temporal Evaluation of Dechlorinating Populations During Crab ...

A commercially prepared dechlorinating solution such as Stress Coat (MARS Fishcare North America, Inc., Chalfont, PA) can be used; such solutions offer an additional protective slime coating for ...

The tceA gene encoding the trichloroethene-dechlorinating RDase TceA is frequently detected in contaminated groundwater but not recognized as a biomarker for VC detoxification. We demonstrate that ...

Aquatic turtles are fun to watch, especially when they're as unique looking as the African sideneck turtle. These turtles got ...

Sulfur in your water supply is easily recognized by its offensive odor. Hydrogen sulfide gas causes the "rotten-egg" or sulfur water smell. Hydrogen sulfide in water causes no known health effects.

This work presents fundamental new insights into the conductivity of freshwater cable bacteria. The evidence supporting the conclusions, which was collected using appropriate techniques, is compelling ...

Cable bacteria are multicellular filaments composed of up-to-thousands of end-to-end cells and are found worldwide in both marine and freshwater sediments. Remarkably, these cells gain energy from a ...
