Journal ArticleDOI
Polychlorinated Biphenyl Dechlorination in Aquatic Sediments
John F. Brown,Donna L. Bedard,Michael J. Brennan,James Claude Carnahan,Helen Feng,Robert E. Wagner +5 more
TL;DR: The polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) residues in the aquatic sediments from six PCB spill sites showed changes in PCB isomer and homolog (congener) distribution that indicated the occurrence of reductive dechlorination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental dechlorination of PCBs
John F. Brown,Helen Feng,Donna L. Bedard,Michael J. Brennan,James Claude Carnahan,Ralph J. May +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the congener reactivity of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sediment and/or fish samples from at least five different locations showed changes in gas chromatographic peak distribution indicative of reductive dechlorination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comprehensive, quantitative, congener-specific analyses of eight aroclors and complete PCB congener assignments on DB-1 capillary GC columns
George M. Frame,Robert E. Wagner,James Claude Carnahan,John F. Brown,Ralph J. May,Lynn A. Smullen,Donna L. Bedard +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, complete polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congener assignments and weight percent distributions for all major (> 0.5 wt %) PCB components of Aroclors 1221, 1232, 1242, 1016, 1248, 1254, 1260, 1262 were determined by DB-1 (polydimethylsiloxane) capillary GC columns.

Chemical-specific sensor for monitoring amounts of volatile solvent during a drying cycle of a dry cleaning process
TL;DR: A solvent vapor sensor for determining amounts of solvent vapor flowing during a solvent dry cleaning process is provided in this article, where the solvent cleaning process utilizes a solvent based cleaning fluid primarily made up of cyclic siloxane solvent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reaction of Silicate Minerals To Form Tetramethoxysilane
Larry Neil Lewis,Florian Johannes Schattenmann,Tracey M. Jordan,James Claude Carnahan,William Flanagan,Ronald James Wroczynski,John P. Lemmon,Joseph Michael Anostario,Michelle A. Othon +8 more
TL;DR: Several silicon dioxide sources were used as reagents in the base-mediated reaction with dimethyl carbonate to make tetramethoxysilane (Q'). Several commercially available diatomaceous earth materials were investigated.
