Preconcentration Techniques for Natural and Treated Waters High Sensitivity Determination of Organic and Organometallic Compounds Cations and

Preconcentration Techniques for Natural and Treated Waters High Sensitivity Determination of Organic and Organometallic Compounds Cations and

Equipment used for the analysis of water is frequently insufficiently sensitive to be able to detect the low concentrations of organic and inorganic substances present in samples. Applying preconcentration to the sample prior to analysis means the results gained are more accurate and can be used to report trends more effectively. Each chapter of Preconcentration Techniques for Natural and Treated Waters discusses a different method of preconcentration and its application to the preconcentration of cations anions organic substances and organometallic compounds. Drawing together the recent world literature available on the subject this book provides detailed discussion of the need for reducing detection limits in analytical chemistry and ways of achieving this aim. Throughout the book emphasis is laid on providing practical experimental detail facilitating further development of procedures. Numerous tables present information clearly and accessibly. This book will be an invaluable reference for biologists chemists agriculturists toxicologists oceanographers and environmentalists dealing with the analysis of water in industry and academia. | Preconcentration Techniques for Natural and Treated Waters High Sensitivity Determination of Organic and Organometallic Compounds Cations and

The Need for Critical Thinking and the Scientific Method

The Need for Critical Thinking and the Scientific Method

The book exposes many of the misunderstandings about the scientific method and its application to critical thinking. It argues for a better understanding of the scientific method and for nurturing critical thinking in the community. This knowledge helps the reader to analyze issues more objectively and warns about the dangers of bias and propaganda. The principles are illustrated by considering several issues that are currently being debated. These include anthropogenic global warming (often loosely referred to as climate change) dangers to preservation of the Great Barrier Reef and the expansion of the gluten-free food market and genetic engineering. | The Need for Critical Thinking and the Scientific Method

Pressure and Temperature Well Testing

Pressure and Temperature Well Testing

The book comprises two parts: Pressure and Flow Well Testing (Part I) and Temperature Well Testing (Part II) and contains numerous authors’ developments. Due to the similarity in Darcy’s and Fourier’s laws the same differential diffusivity equation describes the transient flow of incompressible fluid in porous medium and heat conduction in solids. Therefore it is reasonable to assume that the techniques and data processing procedures of pressure well tests can be applied to temperature well tests. The book presents new methods to determine the formation of permeability and skin factors from tests conducted in simulated wells designing interference well tests processing constant bottom-hole pressure tests estimation of the formation temperature and geothermal gradients from temperature surveys and logs in-situ determination of the formation thermal conductivity and contact thermal resistance of boreholes temperature regime of boreholes (cementing of production liners) and the recovery of thermal equilibrium in deep and superdeep wells. Processing and analysis of pressure and geothermal data are shown on numerous field examples from different regions of the world. The book is intended for students engineers and researchers in the field of hydrocarbon geophysics and geology groundwater searching and exploitation and subsurface environment examination.
