Some aspects of physical and numerical modeling of water hammer in pipelines
PublicationCharakterystyki ciśnieniowe otrzymywane w wyniku symulacji numerycznych uderzenia hydraulicznego różnią się zasadniczo od charakterystyk obserwowanych na drodze doświadczalnej. Stosowane zabiegi matematyczne i numeryczne pozwalające na poprawę zgodności między obliczeniami a pomiarami okazują się skuteczne tylko w przypadku prostych rurociągów o stałej średnicy. Dla bardziej skomplikowanych przypadków prawidłowe odwzorowanie zjawiska...

Correlated Particle Motion and THz Spectral Response of Supercritical Water
PublicationMolecular dynamics simulations of supercritical water reveal distinctly different distance-dependent modulations of dipolar response and correlations in particle motion compared to ambient conditions. The strongly perturbed H-bond network of water at supercritical conditions allows for considerable translationaland rotational freedom of individual molecules. These changes give rise to substantially different infrared spectra and...

Molecular modelling of amphotericin B-ergosterol primary complex in water
PublicationBadano właściwości pierwotnego kompleksu amfoterycyny B z ergosterolem przy pomocy symulacji dynamiki molekularnej. Otrzymane w wyniku naszych symulacji rezultaty słabo odpowiadają postulowanym przez innych autorów modelom kompleksu antybiotyk-sterol. Z drugiej strony uzyskane geometrie nie są sprzeczne z wynikami eksperymentów biofizycznych dotyczących powstawania kompleksów w wodzie i w środowisku wodno-alkoholowym.

Interannual Variability of the GNSS Precipitable Water Vapor in the Global Tropics
PublicationThis paper addresses the subject of inter-annual variability of the tropical precipitable water vapor (PWV) derived from 18 years of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) observations. Non-linear trends of retrieved GNSS PWV were investigated using the singular spectrum analysis (SSA) along with various climate indices. For most of the analyzed stations (~49%) the GNSS PWV anomaly was related to the El Niño Southern Oscillation...

ACTIVATED BIOCHAR AS AN ADSORBENT OF ORGANIC POLLUTANTS FOR WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT
PublicationThe use of biomass, especially waste biomass, as an alternative energy source is a very important issue today. Pyrolysis is a process of thermal degradation of raw material and one of its products is biochar. This product is mainly distinguished by its high carbon content, and by improving its quality through activation, it can be more widely used. Activated biocarbon has a strongly developed surface and porous structure, and as...

Nanostructure of the laser-modified transition metal nanocomposites for water splitting
PublicationAlthough hydrogen is considered by many to be the green fuel of the future, nowadays it is primarily produced through steam reforming, which is a process far from ecological. Therefore, emphasis is being put on the development of electrodes capable of the efficient production of hydrogen and oxygen from water. To make the green alternative possible, the solution should be cost-efficient and well processable, generating less waste...

Solubility of Methane in Water: Some Useful Results for Hydrate Nucleation
PublicationIn this paper, the solubility of methane in water along the 400 bar isobar is determined by computer simulations using the TIP4P/Ice force field for water and a simple LJ model for methane. In particular, the solubility of methane in water when in contact with the gas phase and the solubility of methane in water when in contact with the hydrate has been determined. The solubility of methane in a gas–liquid system decreases as temperature...

Mechanism of antifreeze protein functioning and the “anchored clathrate water” concept
PublicationIn liquid water, there is a natural tendency to form aggregates that consist of water molecules linked by hydrogen bonds. Such spontaneously formed aggregates are surrounded by a "sea" of disordered water molecules, with both forms remaining in equilibrium. The process of creating water aggregates also takes place in the solvation water of proteins, but in this case the interactions of water molecules with the protein surface shift...

The European Union's Water Framework Directive - A new challenge in monitoring water quality. Ramowa Dyrektywa Wodna Unii Europejskiej - Nowe wyzwanie w monitoringu jakości wody
PublicationMonitoring jakości wody polega zwykle na punktowym pobieraniu próbek z użyciem odpowiednich próbników, po którym następuje etap analizy w celu określenia stężenia zanieczyszczeń. Pomimo wielu zalet, metoda ta ma ograniczenia w zakresie badania rozkładu czasowego i przestrzennego zanieczyszczeń oraz w zakresie oceny biodostępności zanieczyszczeń. Wdrożenie Ramowej Dyrektywy Wodnej (2000/60/EC)w krajach Unii Europejskiej będzie wymagało...
