INTRODUCTION: Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) involves some risk of central nervous system (CNS) oxygen toxicity, which may be revealed by various signs and symptoms including seizures in patients breathing O2 at pressures of 2 ATA or higher. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of such seizures in…

Cannulation is necessary when blood is removed from the body, for example in hemodialysis, cardiopulmonary bypass, blood oxygenators, and ventricular assist devices. Artificial blood contacting surfaces are prone to thrombosis, especially in the presence of stagnant or recirculating flow. In this work, computational f…

Abstract The performance of an upflow anaerobic filter (UAF) treating a chemical synthesis‐based pharmaceutical wastewater was evaluated under various operating conditions. During start‐up, the UAF was initially fed by glucose till an organic loading rate (OLR) of approximately 7.5 kg COD m−3 day−1 with a hydraulic re…
