Morphological analysis and modelling of fine coal filter cake microstructure

The article presents the results of experimental tests of the preparation and combustion of CWF obtained on the basis of finely dispersed waste of coal enrichment (filter cake) of the PP «Energeticheskaya» of the branch «Kaltansky Coal Mine» of the Kuzbassrazrezugol Management Company JSC, at the KuzGTU demonstration semi-industrial stand. The tests carried out have shown that on the basis of the RP filter cake, it is possible to prepare a suspension coal-water fuel with structural-rheological and thermophysical characteristics that ensure efficient combustion of the obtained CWF. For fuel combustion, a boiler with a heating capacity of 0.63 MW with a vortex adiabatic furnace was used. The results obtained confirmed the real possibility of industrial use of the developed technology for the utilization of TDOU in the form of VUT at boiler houses, mini-thermal power plants, state district power stations and other heat-generating installations

Chemical Studies

The major structural lesions of the human brain during aging and in Alzheimer disease (AD) are the neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and the senile (neuritic) plaque. Although these fibrous alterations have been recognized by light microscopists for almost a century, detailed biochemical and morphological analysis of the lesions has been undertaken only recently. Because the intraneuronal deposits in the NFT and the plaque neurites and the extraneuronal amyloid cores of the plaques have a filamentous ultrastructure, the neuronal cytoskeleton has played a prominent role in most pathogenetic hypotheses.The approach of our laboratory toward elucidating the origin of plaques and tangles in AD has been two-fold: the use of analytical protein chemistry to purify and then characterize the pathological fibers comprising the tangles and plaques, and the use of certain monoclonal antibodies to neuronal cytoskeletal proteins that, despite high specificity, cross-react with NFT and thus implicate epitopes of these proteins as constituents of the tangles.
