Selective Accumulation

The pattern of elements accumulation in biodeposits formed by living organisms and extracellular products of their metabolism (biofouling, primary soils) on different bedrocks (of the monuments of Historical necropoleis in Saint Petersburg) were studied by a complex of biological and mineralogical methods (optical microscopy, SEM, EDX, XRD, ICP MS, XRFS). The content of 46 elements in biodeposits with various communities of microorganisms is determined. The model recreating the picture of the input and selective accumulation of elements in biodeposits on the stone surface in outdoor conditions is assumed. It is shown that the main contribution to the elemental composition of biodeposits is made by the environment and the composition of the microbial community. The contribution of leaching under the action of microbial metabolites of mineral grains, entering biodeposits from the environment, is significantly greater than that of the underlying rock.

Samples from the different processing stages in the elaboration of sparkling wine (cava)—including must, base wine, and sparkling wine—of Pinot Noir and Xarel·lo grape varieties from different vineyard qualities (A, B, C, D) have been analyzed by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) techniques to determine their elemental composition. The resulting data has been used to characterize these products according to oenological features and product qualities. For this purpose, box plot diagrams, bar charts, and principal components analysis (PCA) have been used. The study of the behavior of each given species has pointed out the relevance of some elements as markers or descriptors of winemaking processes. Among others, Cu and K are abundant in musts and their concentrations progressively decrease through the cava production process. S levels suddenly increase at the base wine step (and further decay) due to the addition of sulfites as preserving agents. Finally, concentrations of Na, Ca, Fe, and Mg increase from the first fermentation due to the addition of clarifying agents such as bentonite. PCA has been applied to try to extract solid and global conclusions on trends and chemical markers within the groups of samples more easily and efficiently than more conventional approaches.

The elemental composition of suspended particulate matter (SPM) in the Barents Sea was studied based on the materials of the 68th cruise of the RV Akademik Mstislav Keldysh, August 2017, using ICP-MS and AAS methods. SPM of the sea surface layer is characterized by significant heterogeneity in the elemental composition, which is due to differences in the course of biogeochemical processes over the water area (for example, high differences in the level of primary production) and different compositions of terrigenous matter from the sources. Biophilic elements significantly enrich the SPM of the surface water layer and fluffy layer relative to the average composition of the earth's crust (the degree of enrichment of the surface SPM is higher than the fluffy layer).

The current study involves two analytical research techniques, inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectroscopy, used to determine the elemental composition of different legumes usually produced and consumed in Slovenia. Results indicate that data obtained using these methods are in agreement with certified reference materials. In total, nineteen elements were determined from twenty legume samples. An intercomparison between four macro- (P, S, K, Ca) and three microelements (Fe, Zn, Mo) measured using ICP-MS and EDXRF methods showed a strong correlation. The EDXRF was found to be a cheaper, simpler and more environmentally friendly method for determination of elements P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Fe, Zn, Mo, Sr, Rb, Ti and Br in legumes, while for the identification and determination of Na, Mg, V, Cr, Mn, Co and Cu content ICP‐MS was the method of choice due to its excellent sensitivity and accuracy. Using principal component analysis (PCA), the samples of the studied legumes were classified into four groups according to their elemental composition.

Purpose: Identification of structural-geometrical parameters, technological properties and elemental composition of spherical powders in a wide fraction range with respect to the VT20 alloy has been carried out. This is important for evaluating the optimum filling of a given volume by mixture of powders of different fractions during 3D printing. Design/methodology/approach: During the investigation of spherical Ti-alloy powders, a comprehensive approach was performed using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). The surface morphology of the powders was studied on a Tuescan Vega 3 Scanning Electron Microscope. Using the Quantax energy dispersive spectrometer, element distribution maps were obtained and histograms of element distribution in the investigated powders were constructed. ICP-MS analysis was performed to clarify the elemental composition. DLS analysis using Malvern's Zetasizer Nano-ZS equipment allowed us to determine the functional parameters (hydrodynamic radius – Rh, zeta potential – z and specific conductivity) of particles of titanium alloy powder that indirectly indicate a tendency to form conglomerates. Findings: According to the microscopic examinations, the VT20 alloy powder consists of globular-shaped particles with the lamellar traces on their surfaces. The uniformity of the chemical element distribution within each fraction of the investigated powders was confirmed by EDS, and the full conformity of the powder fractions with the elemental composition of the VT20 alloy was confirmed by ICP-MS. The DLS method allowed to establish that the formation of conglomerates would not occur within the studied fractions of the VT20 alloy powder. Research limitations/implications: The use of high sensitive investigation methods gives understanding of the mechanisms of fine structure formation and possibility to control the processes of powder coagulation in the stage of electrostatic interactions. Practical implications: The obtained results can be used for the formation of fine spherical particles of the powder, but at the same time, these technologies can be extended for the particles of non-spherical shape. Originality/value: The DLS method allowed to establish that the formation of conglomerates would not occur within the studied fractions of the VT20 alloy powder. This, in turn, will improve powder melting during 3D printing. The measured zeta potential values allowed us to reveal mechanisms of fine structure formation and to control the processes of powder coagulation in the stage of electrostatic interactions.
