Thermodynamic interpretation and prediction of CO2 solubility in imidazolium ionic liquids based on regular solution theory
PublikacjaRegular solution theory (RST) is the most popular model for the interpretation of the interaction between CO2 and ionic liquids. In the present work, the parameters of this model were determined for the CO2 absorption in eleven imidazolium ionic liquids. The y-intercept (A) of the RST model for the investigated imidazolium liquids increases with increasing temperature whereas the slope (B) remains constant. The values of RST parameters...

Sprawiedliwość agrarna
Publikacjaprawiedliwość agrarna została napisana z intencją zreformowania stosunków społeczno-politycznych. Tekst opiera się na założeniu wywodzącym się z tradycji prawnonaturalnej, które brzmi, iż pierwotnie każdy był współwłaścicielem powierzchni Ziemi. Powstanie prywatnej własności ziemskiej (czyli, eo ipso, wywłaszczenie większości ludzi) należy zakwalifikować jako akt bezprawia, kumulujący się w historycznie nawarstwionych nierównościach...

The compositional space of exhaled breath condensate and its link to the human breath volatilome
PublikacjaBreath analysis is commonly understood to target gaseous or volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for the characterization of different pathologies. Targeted analysis is most effective if a working hypothesis can be based on a plethora of data. The recently published volatilome builds an optimal basis for organizing powerful target sets. However, the origin and pathways of biosynthesis of many VOCs are not known, which complicates...

Characteristics of LaCo 0.4 Ni 0.6-x Cu x O 3-δ ceramics as a cathode material for intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells
PublikacjaIn this study, the effects of Cu-ion substitution on the densification, microstructure, and physical properties of LaCo0.4Ni0.6-xCuxO3-δ ceramics were investigated. The results indicate that doping with Cu ions not only enhances the densification but also promotes the grain growth of LaCo0.4Ni0.6-xCuxO3-δ ceramics. The Cu substitution at x ≤ 0.2 can suppress the formation of La4Ni3O10, while the excess Cu triggers the formation...
