Solid decontamination (degradation) sorbents that decompose dangerous substances belong among modern decontamination substances. The aim of the study was to design a procedure for monitoring the degradation of chemical warfare agents using such sorbents. Degradation of soman, VX and sulphur mustard (chemical warfare agents) was monitored using FTIR spectrometry with the ATR technique. During the development and validation of the process, bonds were found in the substance molecule that decomposed and the positions of the absorbance bands that corresponded to the vibration of that bond. The evaluation of degradation efficiency procedure for sorbents on chemical warfare agents was designed based on this study. We present the result of the measurements graphically as the time dependence of the distributed CWA ratio, and the reaction time required to decompose 50 and 90% of the original amount of the substance.","PeriodicalId":10792,"journal":{"name":"Current Advances in Chemistry and Biochemistry Vol. 10","volume":"98 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74369565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since a large part of the energy transformations occurring via a reaction is always related to changes in potential differences, these phenomenological events are initially also in the foreground. In addition to these energetic changes, however, entropic changes are also important. Here, special emphasis is placed on distinguishing between exchanged and produced entropy. The conversion of energy in chemical reactions into heat energy occupies a special position compared to the conversions of e.g. mechanical or electrical energy in that no forces are involved in the former. Using transport reactions through channels, the process can be expressed in a simplified form. It is made clear that heat generation occurs via energetic transition states, and that it is this generated heat itself that leads to a significant increase in multiplicity. As a result, the reaction process is allowed to take place. The conclusion is that in chemical and biochemical reactions, instead of a force, multiplicity determines the direction and course of such processes.","PeriodicalId":10792,"journal":{"name":"Current Advances in Chemistry and Biochemistry Vol. 10","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82269266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Individual loss of productivity due to migraines has social and economic effects for society, and the actual treatment of migraines has not only medical, but serious economic and social implications as well. Since ancient times, care givers have used Saussurea lappa root for medicinal purposes because it contains different therapeutic advantages as a treatment for headaches. This study conducted a clinical trial to evaluate the relieving effects of Saussurea lappa on migraine patients. Blood samples were analyzed for determination of liver, kidney functions, and hematology parameters before and after treatment. Serotonin and its precursor tryptophan, magnesium, and calcium concentrations were also analyzed before and after treatment, because they play a role in migraine pathogenesis. The trial included 42 subjects divided into three groups: Group I (22 patients) received treatments of Saussurea lappa (1 g/500 ml/day); Group II (10 individuals), controls, received the same treatment with the same dose of Saussurea lappa; and Group III (10 patients), received antimigraine drugs (Amitriptyline 20 mg/day and Ibuprofen 400 mg/day). Results showed no significant changes in the concentrations of liver, kidney functions, or hematology parameters before or after treatment, except for calcium. High calcium levels are generally associated with headaches. The results showed that calcium concentration decreased in patients after treatment with Saussurea lappa, indicating that this root could have an effect in relieving headaches by lowering calcium levels. Since magnesium and serotonin, and its precursor tryptophan, markedly decrease during migraines, this study measured both. The results revealed increased magnesium and serotonin levels in the control group after two weeks of treatment and slightly decreased levels in patients after treatment with Saussurea lappa. This could be due to the fact that the duration of the treatment was not long enough to show real significance. This study found Saussurea lappa a safe and effective alternative therapeutic agent.

First of all on the basis of proximate and ultimate analysis of Shivee-Ovoo coal have been confirmed that the Shivee-Ovoo coal is oxidized brown coal of lignite type with B2 mark. The thermal degradation process of Shivee-Ovoo coal was investigated by thermogravimetric analyzer and first time determined the thermal stability of the coal sample by determination of thermal indices such as T5% -71,85°C; T15% -321,18°C; T25% -490,64°C from the TG curve, which are the characteristics of lower thermal stability. The pyrolysis of Shivee-Ovoo coal carried out at different heating temperatures and determined the yields of obtained hard, liquid and gas products. A most suitable heating temperature was chosen 500°C, in which the yield of condensed liquid product-6,28% (tar) was higher. The yield of all liquid (tar and pyrolysis water) and gas products (44%) shows that there was an intensive thermal decomposition of the coal organic mass with higher degree of conversion. This results also confirm the above mentioned and determined lower thermal stability characteristics of Shivee-Ovoo coal and it is more suitable for gasification and liquefaction. Also the yield of hard product (semicoke) is 56,48% at 500°C, which is also important product of the pyrolysis of Shivee-Ovoo coal and it’s proximate analysis results show that the volatile matter content decreased 3 times and increased caloric value by 1000 kcal in comparison with the initial coal sample indicating that it can be used as a smokeless fuel. The determined chemical composition of pyrolysis tar in group organic compounds by chemical analysis show that the tar consists mostly neutral oils with highest content-81,9%, asphalteines-13,6%, free carbons-3,93% and organic bases, organic acids, phenolic compounds are less than 1,0%. The tar also was distilled at room temperature and obtained several fractions with different boiling temperature ranges including yellow colored light fraction-15,93% (18-1800С ), brown colored middle fraction-15,44% (180-3300С ) and black colored heavy fraction-44,53% (330 >0С ). The images of scanning electron microscopes (SEM) of prepared activated carbon from pyrolyzed hard residue in comparison with initial coal sample are different. The SEM image of initial coal sample has compact solid pieces. The SEM image of carbonized and activated coal sample shows a porosity structure with meso and macro pores in comparison with that of initial coal sample. The solubility and chemical composition of neutral oil isolated from the pyrolysis tar of Shivee-Ovoo coal investigated by GC/MS analysis and registered totally 68 peaks (signals) for the soluble in hexane , 100 peaks for the soluble in toluene and 100 peaks for the soluble in a mixed solvent of methylenchloride and methanol (1:1 volume ratio) fractions.
