Evaluation and Characterization of Saline Groundwater in Context of Geogenic Sources in Faridabad District of Haryana
Abstract: Faridabad district is characterized by a distinct geogenic setting. The given climatic condition in the district has reduced availability of freshwater in the region. The alluvial sediments of the Quaternary age forms the principal aquifer system, besides hardrock aquifer system consists of weathered quartzites of Precambrian age (belonging to the Delhi Super Group). The coupled effect of geogenic setting and anthropogenic influences has led to deterioration of the groundwater quality …

Using Nuclear Grade Resin for Ion exchange
Abstract: In EDF, especially in the nuclear business, ion exchange resins are regularly employed for water purification. High-quality nuclear grade resins must be used in primary and secondary circuits as well as effluent treatment to retain dissolved species, some of which may be radioactive. To decrease worker dose during maintenance and to reduce radioactive resin waste volumes, purification needs to become more and more effective. The right resin qualities must be …

Application of Aqueous Two-Phase Systems in the Extraction of Bovine Serum Albumin
Abstract: Protein partitioning in an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) has been found to be a powerful method for extracting and separating mixtures of biomolecules. In ATPS, many factors influence the partition coefficient K (which is the ratio of protein concentration in the top phase to that in the bottom phase) and the recovery percent (Rec%). Two systems of ATPS were used: first, polyethylene glycol (PEG4000)/sodium phosphate, and second, PEG4000/dextran. The behavior …

Comparative Study of Corrosion Resisting Behavior of Steel Reinforcement
Abstract: The corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete had received increasing attention in recent years because of the severe damage to concrete structures. It is so severe that we need a high cost dramatic repair of the structure. The corrosion of reinforcing steel results mainly from the destruction of the protective oxide film by chloride attack or/and carbonation of the concrete. Extensive research into factors contributing to corrosion of reinforcing steel …

An Experimental Study on Effect of Seawater on Strength of M30 Grade Concrete
Abstract: The concrete structures constructed near the coastal areas may deteriorate due to the action of sea salts present in seawater on hardened concrete surface with passage of time. The strength decreases due to the formation of complex ions when chloride and sulphate ions, react with cement hydration products. In this study, experiments were carried out to get the effect of seawater on the strength of M30 grade concrete in laboratory …
