description: Ammonia (NH3) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are substantial contributors to C and N loss in composting. Lignite can increase N retention by absorbing NH4+ and NH3. However, the effects of co-composting on NH3 and GHG emissions in view of closing nutrient cycle are still poorly investigated. In the study, poultry litter was composted without (CK) or with lignite (T1) or dewatered lignite (T2), and their respective composts NH4+Com_CK, Com_T1, and Com_T2) were tested in a soil incubation to assess NH3 and GHG emission during composting and following soil utilization. The cumulative NH3 flux in T1 and T2 were reduced by 39.3% and 50.2%, while N2O emissions were increased by 7.5 and 15.6 times, relative to CK. The total GHG emission in T2 was reduced by 16.8% compared to CK. Lignite addition significantly increased nitrification and denitrification as evidenced by the increased abundances of amoA, amoB, nirK, and nirS. The increased reduction on NH3 emission by dewatered lignite could be attributed to reduced pH and enhanced cation exchangeable capacity than lignite. The increased N2O was related to enhanced nitrification and denitrification. In the soil incubation experiment, compost addition reduced NH3 emission by 72%∼83% while increased emissions of CO2 and N2O by 306%∼740% and 208%∼454%, compared with urea. Com_T2 strongly reduced NH3 and GHG emissions after soil amendment compared to Com_CK. Overall, dewatered lignite, as an effective additive, exhibits great potential to simultaneously mitigate NH3 and GHG secondary pollution during composting and subsequent utilization of manure composts.

description: Glyphosate, as one of the most widely used pesticides, has been found in rainwater runoff. A bioretention cell with two types of fillers was constructed to explore removal of glyphosate in runoff an transformation of glyphosate in the filler. The type of filler had a significant impact on adsorption and degradation of glyphosate in the bioretention cell. The glyphosate removal efficiencies of coal cinder modified loess (CLB) and zeolite modified loess (ZLB) were 33.13–99.7% and 55.04–99.7%, respectively. Conversion of glyphosate in the bioretention cell occurred mainly in the upper layer of the filler. When the concentration of glyphosate in the runoff was 0.25 or 0.5 mg/L, the concentration of glyphosate degradation products at the two outlets along the way was as much as 26 times higher than that at the lowest outlet. Rainfall events promoted the migration of glyphosate and its degradation products within the filler. Glyphosate and its degradation products in ZLB were mainly distributed at 15 and 25 cm deep in the filler layer, while the highest concentrations in CLB were at 5 and 35 cm. Discontinuous runoff into the bioretention cell leads to continuous leaching and adsorption of glyphosate in the bioretention cell until complete degradation occurs.

description: Photocatalytic degradation is a key technique in wastewater treatment, particularly for toxic dye removal, yet challenges related to poor hydrodynamics and mass transfer limitations persist. This study addresses these challenges by innovatively employing an adjustable-angle baffle in a plug flow reactor (PFR) to enhance dye removal efficiency. A lab-scale PFR with an adjustable baffle was utilised to assess the impact of various factors, including baffle angle, catalyst concentration, hydraulic retention time (HRT), pH, and initial dye concentration, on the removal of direct red 23 dye. The experimental design employed a central composite design (CCD), with subsequent data analysis using response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural network (ANN) models. The findings demonstrate that the adjustable baffle significantly impacts dye removal, achieving maximum efficiency at an optimal angle of 77.5 degrees. The ANN model outperformed the RSM model, with a higher determination coefficient (R2) of 0.994 compared to 0.928. Furthermore, RSM and genetic algorithms yielded closely aligned optimal conditions, validating their accuracy. The optimised conditions achieved a dye removal efficiency of 89.47%. Significantly, the study also identified degradation as the dominant mechanism over adsorption and highlighted the impressive stability of nano-Fe3O4 during the recycling process. Mineralisation analysis revealed the presence of lightweight organic residual molecules post-treatment. These outcomes demonstrate the effectiveness of adjustable baffles in PFRs, marking a significant advancement in wastewater treatment technologies and underscoring the critical role of baffle orientation and catalyst concentration in optimising dye removal processes.

description: Vanadium (V) is a critically important element in many industries. A widely used recovery process is a combination of roasting and leaching. However, roasting is an energy-intensive stage. Generally, basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag is high in calcium (Ca) but low in V. Ca content and its chemical nature can prevent V leaching. This study presents a potential two-stage leaching process for Ca and V from BOF slag. The method is environmentally friendly using low temperatures and enabling leachate recycling. Furthermore, the utilisation rate of the slag can be higher due to Ca recovery. Ca is first leached using ammonium nitrate and nitric acid solution. The V-containing residue is directed to the second stage, where V is leached using ammonium carbonate ((NH4)2CO3). Ca leaching efficiency was 71% achieved with a low temperature (40°C) and in 20 min. > 99% of the dissolved element was Ca. Increasing the total nitrate concentration increased the leaching efficiency. Reducing the L/S ratio improved selectivity. The solid material was analysed after the leaching stages and a clear change was observed after the Ca-stage. The V leaching efficiency was 50%. > 88% of dissolved element was V (L/S 8, [(NH4)2CO3] 200 g/L, 60°C, and 60 min). Increasing [(NH4)2CO3] and L/S ratio slightly improved the leaching efficiency but decreased selectivity. The studied process implements circular economy principles and has been developed for side streams with low V concentrations. However, further optimisation and developments are required regarding the effectiveness of the process.

description: Numerous countries have deployed significant efforts to reduce the amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere. Carbon capture and storage is widely regarded as a mitigation technique that can significantly reduce CO2 emissions. A crucial stage in carbon capture and storage is CO2 adsorption using a membrane. Cellulose acetate has demonstrated excellent properties as a membrane material. In this study, we examined the potential of cellulose acetate membrane (CAM) for CO2 gas capture. Two forms of CAM were developed for this study, with and without the addition of glycerol. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), and CO2 adsorption analyses were used to characterise CAM in numerous ways. The analysis revealed that the addition of glycerol improved the gas adsorption properties of the material. The incorporation of glycerol into the cellulose acetate matrix resulted in an observed augmentation in both the diameter and pore size. The adsorption properties of CO2 are significantly influenced by the microscopic structure of the cellulose acetate membrane. The CAM can be viewed as a possible material for CO2 adsorbers.

description: In dairy manure, a wide array of microorganisms, including many pathogens, survive and grow under suitable conditions. This microbial community offers a tremendous opportunity for studying animal health, the transport of microbes into the soil, air, and water, and consequential impacts on public health. The aim of this study was to assess the impacts of manure management practices on the microbial community of manure. The key novelty of this work is to identify the impacts of various stages of manure management on microbes living in dairy manure. In general, the majority of dairy farms in California use a flush system to manage dairy manure, which involves liquid-solid separations. To separate liquid and solid in manure, Multi-stage Alternate Dairy Effluent Management Systems (ADEMS) that use mechanical separation systems (MSS) or weeping wall separation systems (WWSS) are used. Thus, this study was conducted to understand how these manure management systems affect the microbial community. We studied the microbial communities in the WWSS and MSS separation systems, as well as in the four stages of the ADEMS. The 16S rRNA gene from the extracted genomic DNA of dairy manure was amplified using the NovoSeq Illumina next-generation sequencing platform. The sequencing data were used to perform the analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) and multi-response permutation procedure (MRRP) statistical tests, and the results showed that microbial communities among WWSS and MSS were significantly different (p < 0.05). These findings have significant practical implications for the design and implementation of manure management practices in dairy farms.

Coquillettidia albifera

description: Coquillettidia albifera (Prado, 1931)
Male genitalia (Fig. 1). Gonocoxite ovate, enlarged, length less than twice basal width, with a dense patch of numerous somewhat curved, moderately long setae on middle portion medially (Fig. 1A,C). Gonostylus approximately half as long as gonocoxite, strongly enlarged towards apical third, apex slender and protuberant; gonostylar claw borne subapically, apex rounded (Fig. 1A,C). Tergum IX lobes rounded, close to each other, with about 10 slender pointed setae (Fig. 1A). Claspette with a broad base and a pair of adjoined, elongated, tapering, unsclerotized setae (Fig. 1B). Proctiger moderately long, wide at base, paraproct sclerotized, with 6 or 7 short apical teeth (Fig. 1A). Aedeagus short, lateral plates expanded laterally at apical third (Fig. 1A).
Eggs (Fig. 2). Eggs of Cq. albifera are elliptical and black, with the anterior region elongate and tubuliform. Length 661 ± 2.59 µm, width in the central region 183 ± 2.59 µm, length/width ratio 3.61 ± 0.08. Dorsal surface covered by an external chorionic network with diversified shapes (hexagonal, pentagonal and rectangular) (Fig. 2B), similar to a spider’s web, and large external chorionic tubercles randomly distributed (Fig. 2C). The tubercles on the anterior and posterior areas of the dorsal surface have a rounded shape and some are oval with a hemispheric base of 4.71 ± 0.75 µm (n = 10). Chorionic tubercles on the ventral surface are irregular, and those near the micropylar collar are narrower (Fig. 2D). It was not possible to clearly view the micropyle; thus, it was not measured. However, it is surrounded by a porous micropylar disc (18.91 ± 0.65 µm) and by a continuous and protuberant collar (4.4 ± 0.3 µm) (Fig. 2D). The anterior extremity is elongate and has tubercles similar to those of the posterior region (Fig. 2A). No structure or vestige of cement for fixation, like that observed in Haemagogus capricornii Lutz (Alencar et al. 2005) and Ma. titillans (Walker) (Linley et al. 1986), was observed.

description: Capacitive deionisation (CDI) is an emerging eco-economic water reclamation technology that can remove inorganic salts and heavy metals. Biomass-derived carbon electrodes have attracted the scientific communities in recent years due to their economic feasibility and sustainability. However, electrochemical performance needs to be improved to achieve durability and reusability. Hence, the present study develops rice straw-derived phosphorous-doped (P-doped) carbon as an electrode for mitigating Cr(VI) ions. Phosphorus doping of biocarbon electrodes enhances their electrochemical properties, including increased electrical conductivity, improved charge storage capacity, and enhanced ion adsorption capabilities. Here, Phosphoric acid plays a dual role of activation and doping that enhances the physico-electrochemical properties. The synthesised material was found to be P-doped carbon with better pore distribution, which was confirmed through FESEM-EDX analysis. Further, the physicochemical properties of the electrode material are enriched with carbon and possess an enhanced surface area of 753 m2/g. The cyclic voltammetry shows the specific capacitance of 67 F/g for the Cr(VI) ions, which was found to be 15 times more than the non-doped carbon. CDI studies were performed with optimisation of operational parameters and found that mitigation of Cr(VI) ions was efficient at pH 2 for the applied voltage of 2V. The electrode’s performance with real-time chrome wash effluent confirms its potentiality and has better scope upon optimisation. The experimental data fits well with pseudo first-order kinetics, which ensures the nature of electrosorption is physisorption.

Comments. As per the molecular revision by Mah and Foltz (2011), the Pseudarchasteridae, such as Pseudarchaster and Paragonaster, were removed to the Paxillosida and are not included herein. Several goniasterid-like genera, including Fromia and Neoferdina which have historically been included within the Ophidiasteridae were also re-classified within the Goniasteridae (Mah and Foltz 2011). This is dealt with in more detail by Mah (2017).
Several members of the Oreasteridae have historically been treated as members of the Goniasteridae, including Goniodiscaster, Monachaster and Stellasteropsis; these genera and Anthenea are all assigned to the Goniasteridae. The traditional oreasterid assignment appears to have been based largely on robust skeletal development, argued here to be unreliable as a synapomorphy. Nectria, for example, shares numerous characters shared with Mediaster and other members of the “ Mediaster ” clade, including Rosaster but has been incorrectly assigned in the Oreasteridae (e.g., Gates and Rowe 1995). These genera are discussed in further detail herein.

description: The waterfront south region of Camden is a neighborhood that is surrounded by active industries that include a metal recycling facility, an incinerator and a massive sewage treatment plant. It is severely lacking in a usable green space. As a city with upcoming green infrastructure strategies, Camden has a dearth of spaces that can be used by the community for relaxation and outdoor entertainment. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) along with Cooper’s Ferry – a non-profit organization, has worked towards reclaiming and developing a part of the waterfront for the community. The main objective is to connect the community to its water. The goal of this project is developing a design strategy for the NJDEP which aims at creating a waterfront that offers open space recreation, waterfront access, educational opportunities, connection to Camden’s history and economic development that lead to urban environmental transformation. The case studies for this project are Hoboken waterfront and Chicago Riverwalk – two successful waterfronts of recent times.

description: This study is largely based on the new Fish and Wildlife Service Urban Initiative and the responsibilities they have undertaken to reach populations most detached from wildlife and the great outdoors. It emphasizes the lack of exposure to nature in underrepresented populations and the ways in which the federal government can influence these relations.  This paper broadly seeks to understand the history of the Fish and Wildlife Service and the impact it has had on the conservation of American landscapes while distinguishing the political forces that have caused the disassociation of minorities from these landscapes. The case of this research is derived from the historical narrative of an urban community in Philadelphia, Eastwick, revealing layers of environmental racism and injustice. The use of archival research and residential interviews helped in identifying the strengthens and barriers of this community and its relationship to the Urban Wildlife Refuge adjacent to it. John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge has assumed responsibility in reestablishing a relationship between the surrounding community and the natural federal landscape. As America’s first Urban Refuge, John Heinz, has begun to implement programs that are specific to the surrounding communities. This paper highlights the two-prong approach of engaging and reaching outside of the refuge in order to gain the attention and trust of underrepresented populations to bring them back into the refuge.

Interactions in calls to the 9-1-1 Emergency System in Costa Rica

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: This dissertation examines interactions in calls to the 9-1-1 Emergency System in Costa Rica, and particularly focuses on the analysis of the overall structural organization of calls, and interactional activities of requesting help and formulating place. The dissertation uses the methodology of Conversation Analysis to examine recordings of naturally occurring interactions on the 9-1-1 telephone line, supplemented by non-participant observations in the call room and interviews with 9-1-1 officials. I analyze 215 calls of actual incidents. My findings show that, in the overall structural organization of the call, callers proffer (and sometimes engage in) greetings during the opening of the call. In the interrogative series phase, besides formulating the location of the incident and the problem, call-takers verify the caller’s contact information (i.e., name and telephone number). In the response of assistance phase, call-takers do not promise the assistance, but suggest it by using a combination of informings (i.e., the information was sent, the dispatch center is in charge of dispatching assistance, be alert on the assistance). Regarding requesting help, my analysis shows that by using particular turn designs callers may display an orientation to their low entitlement to the request and to high contingencies in getting the assistance (e.g., “para ver si”, “do me a favor” construction, “be kind” construction), or, alternatively, to low contingencies in getting the assistance and high entitlement to the request (e.g., description of self-evident incidents). Regarding formulating place, findings show that callers use three practices: geographical formulations, landmark formulations, and “other signs” formulations. The landmark formulation is comprised of a landmark, a distance from the landmark, and the direction of the movement. A place formulation is institutionally sufficient by call-takers when it includes both geographical and landmark formulations. These findings inform us about different practices that different communities use when calling to 9-1-1 services. By examining the overall structural organization of calls, and interactional activities of requesting help and formulating place, and analyzing possible interactional problems that participants might experience when calling for help, this dissertation has a potential to inform and possibly improve the 9-1-1 service in Costa Rica.

Methods: 1) Surveillance data (2000-2013) were analyzed for persons with TB, and associations with offer of HIV testing and known HIV status by the study variables.  Models, stratified by provider type, were developed with two HIV outcomes.  Interactions by year were added. 2) Thirty-one providers were interviewed about HIV testing in persons with TB.  Transcripts were coded and themes identified.  Results: 1) HIV testing was offered to 70.4% and HIV status was known in 62.7% of individuals with TB.  The odds of HIV testing offer and known HIV status increased two-four times (p<0.0001) after 2006, when opt-out HIV testing was recommended.  Differences in HIV testing offer and known HIV status were identified in all age groups compared to 25-44 year olds (OR=0.11-0.81; p<0.0010).  Females had lower odds of HIV testing offer and known HIV status than males (OR=0.67-0.73; p<0.0002). Substance users had greater odds of HIV testing offer and known HIV status than non-users (OR=1.85-2.62; p<0.0001). Homeless persons had higher odds of known HIV status (OR=2.49; p=0.0432) than non-homeless person under community care.  Black, non-Hispanics (OR=2.07-3.13; p<0.0001) had higher odds of HIV testing offer and known HIV status than White, non-Hispanics. Hispanics under community care (OR=1.62; p=0.0026) had higher known HIV status and Asians under community care had lower odds of known HIV status and offer of HIV testing (OR=0.69-0.71, p<0.0051) compared to White, non-Hispanic.  2) Interview codes fell under four themes: basis of provider’s testing decision, perceived patient barriers, provider testing barriers, and provider testing opportunities.  Providers corroborated that the opt-out recommendation has made it easier for offering HIV testing.  Barriers to HIV testing included limited time, patient stigma, low access to testing facilities, not knowing/remembering to test, and hesitation to test all persons with TB without risk factors.  Conclusion: Interventions are needed to educate providers about HIV testing recommendations for all persons with TB, as well as training on patient support for the process and results.

description: State Education Agencies (SEAs) face challenges to the implementation of computer-based accountability assessments.  The change in the accountability assessments from paper-based to computer-based demands action from the states to enable schools and districts to build their technical capacity, train the staff, provide practice opportunities to the students, manage the logistics of testing in the computer labs and provide change management services to all stakeholders including the public.  In mandating these assessments, states have a responsibility for building technical, human and social capital to support the technical implementation and for informing the public to ensure student participation.  An effort to move to computer-based accountability assessments requires all stakeholders to contribute in order for it to be successful.   Understanding the contributions the SEA can make will help states in addressing the challenges to the successful administration of millions of exams.      The study was a mixed method study of the statewide implementation of computer-based accountability assessment in three states.  The purpose of this three-state comparative case study was to describe the SEA contributions to the extent of adoption of computer-based assessments for K12 statewide accountability. This study contributes to the literature on how institutional adoption of innovations can be facilitated or hindered by the activities of the governing body of the institution by studying how the actions of the SEA affect the institutional adoption of computer-based accountability assessments as shown by two indicators – technical implementation and student participation.  The SEA factors contributing to the successful adoption of computer-based assessments are the procedures and practices at the SEA, interactions between the SEA and the districts, and SEA and local capacities.  Because the SEAs can adjust their procedures and practices and their interactions between themselves and the districts, these areas are the focus of this study.  By focusing on what the SEA can control in their implementation plans, this study aims to guide SEAs on what they can do to support the successful adoption of computer-based assessments for accountability.

The Great Migration and black entrepreneurship in Detroit

description: This dissertation provides new insights on the role of business in the African American freedom struggle by tracing African American business across the various waves of the Great Migration. Traditionally, historians of the Great Migration have imagined Southern migrants as wage laborers seeking employment in Northern industrial cities. As a result, the importance of entrepreneurship to the black migration experience has been overlooked. However, a significant number of African Americans moved north and engaged in enterprise. Black entrepreneurs saw business as a key way to achieve freedom, and they migrated north to gain the self-determination and economic independence business ownership could provide.  Using Detroit as a case study, this dissertation traces the movement of black entrepreneurs from the South to the North in the 1910s, examines the growth of a prosperous black business community through the 1940s, and analyzes the destruction of that community by urban planning initiatives in the 1950s and 1960s. Drawing on the writings of black intellectuals, oral histories, memoirs, black newspapers, census records, city directories from Detroit and Southern cities, draft records, and the records of city officials, the dissertation demonstrates that the economic landscape for black business in Detroit adjusted over time in ways that made it more difficult for black entrepreneurs to attain their goal of freedom through business.
Orality, literacy, and the learning of instruments

description: The literacy of instrumentalists underwent a revolution in the sixteenth century. Previously, musicians who specialized in instrumental performance were often excluded from literate musical cultures: they were artisans operating within oral traditions of improvisation and formulaic playing. As a result, relatively few written compositions survive from instrumentalists prior to 1500. By the end of the sixteenth century, instrumentalists were benefitting in many regions from a vast growth in general literacy, and were frequently intersecting with the educated cultures of churches and courts—as a result, they could notate with precision the music that they played and created.    This trend contributed to the pedagogical methods used to train instrumentalists. As instrumentalists transitioned from a largely artisanal and oral culture into a musically literate mainstream, new printed repertoires and pedagogical materials offered a complement to traditional teaching methods, necessitating the acquisition of new skills and vastly broadening the musical experiences of student instrumentalists. Although existing studies have probed in detail the emergence of print culture in the early modern period, there remain important issues to be considered about the intersections between printed objects and literacy, the relationships between writing, printing, and oral cultures, and the ways in which these developments shaped the ways musicians thought about and created music.     In this dissertation, I argue that the emergence of a literate musical culture among instrumentalists in sixteenth-century Italy had far-reaching implications. The acquisition of literacy coincided with instrumentalists’ entries into and participation in the literate musical milieus of churches and courts, and newly literate instrumentalists provided a bridge between earlier oral practices and an expanding written culture. Through writing down or codifying previously oral practices and taking advantage of the new possibilities of writing and print, instrumentalists began to open new pedagogical possibilities for students, and reshape instrumentalists’ thought processes and musical understanding. I propose that instrumentalists trained in late sixteenth-century Italy developed a new compositional consciousness as a result of this, and tensions between the oral and written cultures of these musicians are responsible for some key characteristics of progressive instrumental compositions in the early baroque period.

Astroceramus Fisher 1906: 1056; 1911: 172 (in key); 1919: 309; Döderlein 1924: 60; Macan 1938: 388; H.L. Clark 1941: 45; Halpern 1970: 140; Clark & Downey 1992: 230; A.M. Clark 1993: 243; McKnight 2006: 88; Kogure & Tachikawa 2009:77.
Diagnosis. Abactinal plates polygonal in outline, abutted, no surficial granules, surface smooth, bare. Crystalline nodules embedded in surface of abactinal plates. Marginal plates large, blocky, quadrate in outline, surface with coarse, surficial granules. Superomarginal plates abutted over midline variably from base of arm to paired distal penultimate plates. Actinal surface variably covered by coarse granules to bare. One to many large, thick subambulacral spines present in most species. Pedicellariae present or absent.
Comments. Astroceramus is a widely occurring goniasterid present in the Atlantic (one species), the Pacific (five species), and Indian oceans (historically two with two new species described below). Astroceramus specimens are present in several Indo-Pacific deep-sea collections (Mah unpublished data) suggesting that it is much more widely occurring than prior occurrences have suggested. Two tropical Pacific species have been recently been described, Astroceramus boninensis from the Ogasawara Islands in Japan by Kogure and Tachigawa (2009) and Astroceramus eldredgei from the Hawaiian Islands by Mah (2015). Mah (2015) also presented in situ observations of Astroceramus feeding.
Although four species are identified from the Indian Ocean, they appear to form two distinct clusters based on their location and characters. Astroceramus species in the more northern Indian Ocean, Astroceramus fisheri (Off southern India and Indonesia) and Astroceramus cadessus (Maldives) display superomarginal plates abutted over the midline for most of the arm distance and with a more weakly stellate shape (R/r=2.2–2.9). The second cluster, including Astroceramus eleaumei n. sp. and Astroceramus kintana n. sp., posses abactinal plates which extend along the proximal 50–70% of the arm distance, more elongate arms with a more stellate body form (R/r=2.2–4.1). Further comparative and phylogeographic work for these and other Indo-Pacific species remains to be done.

Rapid de-carbonation in canned carbonated soft drink beverages

description: Carbonated beverages are engineered to contain a defined quantity range of CO2 dissolved into the product to optimize consumer preference. Carbonation level is an integral component of carbonated soft drink beverages that significantly contributes to positive sensory attributes of sodas; the mouthfeel and taste that the consumer expects. Rapid de-carbonation is a phenomenon in which the carbonation level of a canned carbonated soft drink beverage rapidly decreases to unacceptable levels, determined by consumer best taste limits, in less than 10 minutes of opening the can. Rapid de-carbonation leads to a range of negative experiences for the consumer. This phenomenon is classified into three types of rapid de-carbonation: gushing, foaming, and active.  The objective of this thesis is to investigate factors that contribute to rapid de-carbonation through exploring the interactions between internal can coating morphology, beverage chemistry, and physical characteristics contributed by filling and processing conditions. Each of these factors has been studied separately in the past by the beverage, can, and coating industry. The factors were studied simultaneously to evaluate the effect on the rapid de-carbonation phenomena as well as the interaction between each factor. Specific levels, or conditions, of each factor were identified as a stress factor: high initial carbonation level, high water mineral content level, and a specific coating morphology. The results show that while each separate factor increased the rate of de-carbonation; however, when the stress factors were combined the effect was not only additive but synergistic. The carbonation loss increased by more than 1.5x when compared to a system that had lowest amount of engineered stress factors.    Physical and chemical interactions between the beverage and coatings that were previously regarded as inert were observed. After the cans were filled, there were morphological changes in the can coating and deposits high in nitrogen were detected. These deposits were found to be more pervasive on the epoxy-based coatings versus the acrylic-based coatings. These findings can help the can and beverage industry better understand the interactions between beverage and packaging and how these interactions play a role in the widely elusive rapid de-carbonation phenomenon.
