? Seno, T. (2000), The 21 September, 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake in Taiwan: Implications for Tsunami earthquakes. Terrestrial Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 11 (3), 701-708.

Abstract: The 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake in Taiwan can be regarded as a subduction zone earthquake in a tectonic sense. It was associated with an abnormally uplifted area in the northwestern corner of the earthquake fault, The area is in the river bed where the Ta-Chia River runs from east to west. The large horizontal movement of the basement south of the river to the north could have produced the multiple thrusts and the abnormal uplifts amounting to 3-6 m due to the shortening of the accretionary prism.

These inelastic uplifts would imply an abnormal tsunami if the area were under the sea, thus suggesting a new factor for the mechanism of tsunami earthquakes, which is an uplift of the sediment or weak accretionary prism caused by a sudden horizontal movement on the decollement beneath the lowermost inner trench slope like sand being pushed up by a bulldozer. This is consistent with the features of tsunami earthquakes having the low dip angle thrust extending to the trench.

Abstract: An attempt was made to clarify the reaction mechanism and to determine the rate parameters for water gas shift reaction with solid metal as catalyst. For the reaction, the influence of gaseous adsorption on the surface of metal catalyst played an important role. In the present work, both lumpy iron and spherical nickel were used as catalysts and the rate of water gas shift reaction was observed at pressure range of 0.13 to 1.01 MPa. Adsorption of gas species was experimentally found to surpress the reaction. The rate equation of water gas shift reaction was derived on the basis of the Temkin’s adsorption theory as follows:

The parameters of k(app), m and n in the above equation were determined from the results of experiments. Calculated values based on the rate equation agreed well with observed data.

The order of catalytic activity of various catalysts at 873 K in the basis of unit area and unit time was found as follows: Lumpy iron > Spherical nickel > Reduced iron pellet (reduced at 1273 K by hydrogen)

Abstract: Conventional treatments of wastewater containing reactive dye are either very costly or environmentally unsound. A strong anion-exchange resin can be prepared from sugarcane bagasse, a lignocellulosic byproduct of sugarcane processing, that effectively and inexpensively decolorizes dyehouse wastewater in an environmentally benign manner. Bagasse-derived resin binds hydrolyzed reactive dye with high affinity. The rate of dye binding is inversely proportional to resin particle size. Dye binding is largely unaffected by high salt concentrations. The materials cost (i.e., bagasse plus chemicals) for making the resin is quite low. It may be economically feasible to use the bagasse-derived resin without regeneration, in a batch process, which would provide great flexibility in the wastewater treatment regimen with minimal capital expenditure.
