Possible Use Of Chlorine Dioxide For Bleaching Deinked Paper Stock, Donald E. Thorton

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

The literature survey shows that chlorine dioxide can be used to bleach virgin pulp to a high brightness. The purpose of chlorine dioxide is to preserve the strength of the pulp.

The purpose of this thesis was to find out if chlorine dioxide could be used to preserve the strength of deinked paper stock.

Paper stock was found to lose strength when bleached with calcium hypochlorite and mixed with virgin pulp the loss of strength carried over in the mixture.

When the paper stock was bleached with chlorine dioxide, there was no loss of strength in the paper stock.

Supercalender Variables (Ii) The Effect Of Supercalender Pressure And Temperature On The Physical Properties Of Paper, Robert C. Walker

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

This thesis is the second in a series of fundamental investigations of the variables of supercalendering. The variables studied in this thesis are roll temperature and nip pressure. These variables were investigated by testing three types of paper that were supercalendered at various controlled roll pressures and temperatures. Different values of these variables during supercalendering were found to cause noticeable differences in the physical properties of supercalendered paper. It was observed, after studying the physical tests made on each of the three types of paper, that the type of paper being supercalendered, influences, to a varying degree, the effect of …

50 Years Of Research At The North Platte Experiment Station, W. W. Burr, J. C. Adams

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

The North Platte Experiment was established fifty years ago. So many changes have occurred since then that few people remember why research in dry land agriculture was started in Nebraska and other Great Plains states. In order to get a proper perspective, it may be well to consider some early history.

Locations Of Maximum Numbers Of The Wheat Curl Mite, Aceria Tulipae (K.) (Eriophyidae) On The Winter Wheat Plant During Spring Growth, Edmon J. Kantack, Herbert Knutson

Field and Laboratory

Coincident with investigations on chemical control of wheat curl mite, Aceria tulipae (K.), a vector of wheat-streak mosaic, it was necessary that the area of heaviest and most uniform populations on the wheat plant be determined for mite counts. Both greenhouse screening trials and field application tests of miticides are being conducted currently. Since little is known concerning this mite, certain biological observations are recorded below for the information of other workers.

The Levator Anguli Scapulae In Necturus, Joseph P. Harris Jr.

Field and Laboratory

Professor St.-George Jackson Mivart first described the M. levator anguli scapulae in N ecturus in 1869. He noted an origin of the long, slender muscle on the occiput, and an insertion on "the inner side of the dorsum of the scapula.'' Mivart, earlier in the same year, had used the same name· for a homologous muscle in the hell-bender; in this, he apparently adapted Funk's (1827) and Rtidinger's (1868) earlier name. Kingsley (1907) used the name M. levator scapulae for the same muscle, following an earlier pattern set by Carus (1828), Schmidt, Goddard, & van der Hoeven (1864), Humphry (1871) …

Status Of The Wood Thrush In Dallas County, Texas, William B. Stallcup

Field and Laboratory

In his Check List of Birds of Dallas County, Texas, Stillwell (1939) designated the Wood Thrush, Hylocichla mustelina (Gmelin), a rare transient. He states: "We rarely see, never hear, the Wood Thrush in Dallas ... ", and gives May 25 as the latest record of its occurrence in the County. Local bird enthusiasts, however, tell me that although the Wood Thrush is not a common spring migrant here, it is certainly not rare.

Geology Of The Cedar Hill Quadrangle, Dallas And Ellis Counties, Texas, Jackie L. Watkins

Field and Laboratory

In the Cedar Hill Quadrangle, bedrock consists of the Eagle Ford shale and Austin chalk, both of Upper Cretaceous age. The shale averages about 430 feet in thickness, with only the upper 140 feet exposed. This is predominantly a dark gray, fissile mudstone with limestone concretions and several thin limestone beds in the upper part of the section. A stratum of elastic limestone six inches thick lies 107 feet below the top and serves as a marker bed in areal mapping. The shale is disconformably overlain by the Austin chalk, at the base of which is a bed of conglomerate …

The Production Of 2, 3-Butanediol By Fermentation Of Sugar Beet Molasses, Keith B. Mccall, Carl E. Georgi

Papers in Microbiology

The production of 2,3-butanediol from natural materials by fermentation offers a practical and economical method for obtaining appreciable quantities of this important chemical. A variety of substrates have been used satisfactorily such as wood hydrolyzates (Perlman,1944), wheat (Katznelson, 1944.; Ledingham et al., 1945; Ward et al., 1945) and corn (Ward et al., 1945). The use of several grades of beet molasses prepared from home-grown beets has been reported by British (Freeman and Morrison, 1947) and Canadian workers (Anastassiadis and Wheat, 1953). Excellent yields were obtained which compared favorably with those resulting from the use of pure sucrose.

The Nutritional Requirements Of A Strain Of Shigella Dysenteriae 1, Carl G. Mays

Biology ETDs

It was the purpose of this investigation to develop [a synthetic] medium for the growth of Shigella dysenteriae 1, strain 14-1, originally obtained from the collection at the Army Medical Service Graduate School. Not only was it desirable to grow the cells, but also to grow them in large quantities in the least possible time. Although considerable work has been done in determining the various growth essentials for many of the Shigella group, particularly the Flexner strains of Shigella paradysenteriae, comparatively little has be ascertained regarding those strains included in Shigella dysenteriae.

Records And New Species Of Heterosphyronid Pseudoscorpions, Don L. Torgerson

Biology ETDs

Since the description of the family Chthoniidae by Hansen in 1894, the group has been revamped considerably. Most notable of these revisions are the works of Chamberlin (1931) and Beier (1932). At the present time the family contains twenty genera and several subgenera (unpublished data, C.C. Hoff). The distribution of the family Chthoniidae is cosmopolitan.
