Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacteria, which were discovered in waste-water sludge in the early 1990s, have the unique metabolic ability to combine ammonium and nitrite or nitrate to ...

A joint program co-curated by Case Western Reserve University distinguished professor of humanities and medieval art history Elina Gertsman and CMA’s curator of medieval art Gerhard Lutz ...

Density, rheological properties, and conductivity of a homologous series of ammonium-based ionic liquids N-alkyl-triethylammonium bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide were studied at atmospheric ...

The white smoke is a slightly different chemical composition. "You have calcium chlorate, which again is going to bring that oxygen, you use lactose, which is just sugar," Dr. Castellini said.

To generate white smoke, potassium chlorate, milk sugar and pine rosin are ignited. Using these smoke signals, the cardinals can communicate from within the conclave immediately and directly to ...

Many soils used for potato production have become more acidic over time due to the use of ammonium fertilizers and the leaching of cations from the root zone. Acid conditions are generally better for ...

Potassium chlorate (KClO₃) – even more reactive than perchlorate – ensures a hot, vigorous burn. Lactose acts as the fuel, burning quickly and cleanly into water vapour and carbon dioxide.

For white smoke, the Vatican says it used to use wet straw, but to make it a more pure color, instead of a confusing grey, they use potassium chlorate, lactose and a tree or bush resin called ...
