    Notes: Abstract  Nitrogen-rich inclusions can lead to a reduction in fatigue life of highly stressed titanium-alloy components (found in the compressor sections of power generation gas turbines, turbine sections of power generation steam turbines, wing sections of aircraft air frames, and compressor and fan sections of aircraft jet engines, for example). It is the ”crack starting” nature of the nitrogen-rich inclusions that is the problem, not the presence of nitrogen in the system, per se. This paper covers the theory and laboratory experiments used to evaluate ESR (electro-slag refining) as an alternative technique for rapid dissolution of nitrogen-rich inclusions in titanium and titanium alloys. Five variations of melt rate, slag temperature and inclusion type were evaluated. One variant showed complete dissolution of the inclusions. Several of the other variants showed partial dissolution of the inclusions. The kinetics were observed to occur at a rate 100 to 1000 times faster than the rate of dissolution of nitrogen-rich inclusions by immersion in liquid titanium.

    Notes: Abstract Nine out of ten anaerobic enrichment cultures inoculated with sediment samples from various freshwater, brackish-water, and marine sediments exhibited ferrous iron oxidation in mineral media with nitrate and an organic cosubstrate at pH 7.2 and 30° C. Anaerobic nitrate-dependent ferrous iron oxidation was a biological process. One strain isolated from brackish-water sediment (strain HidR2, a motile, nonsporeforming, gram-negative rod) was chosen for further investigation of ferrous iron oxidation in the presence of acetate as cosubstrate. Strain HidR2 oxidized between 0.7 and 4.9 mM ferrous iron aerobically and anaerobically at pH 7.2 and 30° C in the presence of small amounts of acetate (between 0.2 and 1.1 mM). The strain gained energy for growth from anaerobic ferrous iron oxidation with nitrate, and the ratio of iron oxidized to acetate provided was constant at limiting acetate supply. The ability to oxidize ferrous iron anaerobically with nitrate at approximately pH 7 appears to be a widespread capacity among mesophilic denitrifying bacteria. Since nitrate-dependent iron oxidation closes the iron cycle within the anoxic zone of sediments and aerobic iron oxidation enhances the reoxidation of ferrous to ferric iron in the oxic zone, both processes increase the importance of iron as a transient electron carrier in the turnover of organic matter in natural sediments.
