An analysis of the partial feasibility of a novel cardiac exercise rehabilitation programme for patients suffering from cardiovascular disease by Ross, Tayla Jane

“…Aims: The aims of this study were to determine the partial feasibility of a novel CRP in a South African public hospital setting by evaluating the following: 1) The recruitment potential and sample population characteristics of those considered eligible to partake in the exercise component of a novel CRP; and 2) The testretest reliability of the tools utilized for the safe monitoring of the exercise intensity during the prospective CRP. …”

Weak acid/bases and pH control in upflow anaerobic sludge bed reactors by Moosbrugger, Richard Engelbert

“…Against the background described above, the following tasks were set: • Development of a simple method for simultaneous determination of the H₂CO₃*alkalinity (carbonate system alkalinity) and SCFA concentration in anaerobic systems to be used in, (1) assessing the H₂CO₃*alkalinity requirements of different types of wastes when treated in UASB systems, (2) monitoring process stability when treating these wastes under different operating conditions, e.g. different recycle ratios. • Assessment of H₂CO₃*alkalinity requirements for Iauter tun (brewery) waste to maintain a near neutral minimum bed pH in UASB systems. …”

Selective oxidation of methane in a trickle bed reactor over a platinum-based catalyst by Hytoolakhan, Lal Mahomed Nasseela

“…Despite the numerous approaches investigated for direct methane to methanol (DMTM) conversion in the last century such as homogeneous gas-phase, homogeneous liquid partial oxidation and heterogeneous catalytic partial oxidation, none of them were deemed successful for commercialization due to either the use of expensive reagents such as H2O2 and H2SO4, low yields and conversions, or inefficient system requirements. …”
