Falcon series

Description of Experiments The Falcon Series of liquefied natural gas (LNG) spill experiments was performed by LLNL during the summer of 1987. These were the first tests performed at DOE s permanent Spill Test Facility. A series of five spills was performed on water within a vapor barrier structure as part of a joint government/industry study. These experiments were performed to evaluate the effectiveness of vapor fences as a mitigation technique for accidental releases of LNG. They also provided a database for the validation of wind tunnel and computer modeling simulations of vapor fence effects on LNG dispersion. Spills were made onto a water pond equipped with a circulation system to maximize evaporation to make the source evaporation rate as nearly equal to the spill rate as possible.

Falcone and Wood179) have reported enthalpies of dilution in NMA for a large series of alkali metal halides as well as for a number of tetraalkylammonium halides (all measurements at 35 °C). These heats were expressed as excess enthalpies180,181) and values of the excess free energies calculated from the previously mentioned osmotic coefficients allowed calculation of the excess entropies. 

It is interesting that in TPRx studies with an initial state of adsorbed CO t H2 on Ni/Al203 at 112 C, this leads to the formation of methoxy groups on the support 196). From a series of ingenious experiments involving isotopes, TPRx, interrupted TPRx, and TPD, Falconer and coworkers constructed a coherent explanation of their results. However, for the steady-state CO/H2 reaction at 220°C or higher, over supported Ni, Fe, Ru, and Rh, the adsorbed species on the alumina support are not in the reaction pathway toward methane (77, 190,191, 195).

We have in our laboratory routinely used 100-mm plastic petri plates (Falcon Plastics), containing 15 to 20 ml of the growth medium. Smaller plates or smaller amounts of medium have also been successfully used, but a more rigid control must be exercised for the humidity and COg content in the atmosphere during incubation. In each experiment, two series of plates are generally included The first series, for a measure of cell survival, consists of 3 to 5 replicates at each cell dilution (e.g., 100, 200, and 400).

Determination of [ H]-AA release. Aliquots (1 ml) of [ H]-AA-prelabelled U937 cells were placed in sterile 8 ml polystyrene tubes (Falcon) and test substances dissolved in cold serum-free RPMI were added at graduated concentrations. Control cells received an appropriate volume of RPMI without test substances. Cell cultures were kept for 1 hr at 4°C, after which the temperature was raised to 37°C. The cells were further incubated for 1 hr (dose-response relationship). After incubation, [ H]-AA was determined in the 200 g supernatants of cultures by liquid scintillation counting (liquid scintillation counter, Wallac 1410, Wallac Oy, Turku, Finland). Three experiments were carried out in every given series. All assays were performed in triplicate. 

A typical mutagen assay experiment is comprised of four groups of plated Falcon flasks referred to below as series A through D.
