Extracorporeal Removal of Drugs: Hemoperfusion and Hemofiltration

244
Hemoperfusion and hemofiltration are critical techniques in medical treatments to eliminate accumulated drugs, metabolites, and electrolytes from the bloodstream. These methods are particularly vital in cases of accidental poisoning and drug overdose.Hemoperfusion involves passing blood through an adsorbent material to remove unwanted substances. The main adsorbents used in hemoperfusion include activated charcoal and Amberlite resins. Activated charcoal can adsorb both polar and nonpolar...

Extracorporeal Removal of Drugs: Peritoneal Dialysis and Hemodialysis

546
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or those experiencing drug overdose often require extracorporeal methods to eliminate accumulated drugs and metabolites. Hemoperfusion, hemofiltration, and dialysis are the primary techniques to rapidly remove harmful substances without disrupting the patient's fluid and electrolyte balance. For those with compromised renal function, dosage adjustments of concurrent medications may be necessary during extracorporeal drug removal.Dialysis is a process...

Extracorporeal Removal of Drugs: Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

232
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is an essential intervention for patients experiencing severe kidney dysfunction. This therapy offers a continuous mechanism for removing fluids and toxins from the bloodstream, leveraging the patient’s blood pressure to facilitate filtration through a specialized filter. This method contrasts with intermittent dialysis, providing a gentler and more consistent removal of waste products and excess fluid, which is particularly beneficial in...

For a chemical reaction (the system) carried out at constant pressure – with the only work done caused by expansion or contraction – the enthalpy of reaction (also called the heat of reaction, ΔHrxn) is equal to the heat exchanged with the surroundings (qp).

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Materials Science
  • Chemistry

Background:

  • Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas with significant climate impacts.
  • Photocatalysis offers a potential route for complete methane oxidation to carbon dioxide (CO2) at ambient temperatures.
  • Previous research often overlooked realistic methane concentrations and humidity levels.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate methane oxidation rates using oxide-based photocatalysts under varying methane concentrations and humidity.
  • To explore the impact of surface water on photocatalytic methane oxidation.
  • To develop engineering solutions for efficient room-temperature methane removal.

Main Methods:

  • Methane oxidation rates were measured at 25 °C for methane concentrations from 2 to 5000 ppm.
  • The effect of humidity on oxide-based photocatalysts was examined.
  • Titanium dioxide (TiO2) surfaces were modified with hydrophobic fluorosilane coatings.

Main Results:

  • Residual water on hydrophilic photocatalyst surfaces significantly inhibits methane oxidation, even at low humidity (<2% RH).
  • Reducing the water layer on photocatalyst surfaces increased methane oxidation rates by up to tenfold.
  • Hydrophobic surface modification of TiO2 enabled efficient photocatalytic methane removal across a wide humidity range (up to 80% RH).

Conclusions:

  • Water management is critical for effective photocatalytic methane oxidation.
  • Hydrophobic surface modification is a promising strategy for developing efficient, humidity-tolerant photocatalysts for methane removal.
  • These findings provide a pathway for scalable, light-driven methane mitigation technologies.
