Reducing the Emission Activity of Vanadium from Building Materials

The article presents a study of the possibility of controlling the emission activity of heavy metals from building materials and structures. It has been established that the most active emission processes from building materials obtained using industrial wastes placed in aqueous media occur in the first five days in a neutral medium, and in the first ten days in an acidic medium. After that, the concentration of heavy metals in the aquatic environment begins to decrease. The results obtained on particular examples made it possible to establish dependencies that determine the intensity of emission processes under various conditions of contact between building materials and an aqueous medium. These dependencies are of a general nature and can be used to predict and control the formation of anthropogenic load. It is shown that the control of emission processes from building structures is possible by forming the structure of the material in the direction of increasing its hydrophobicity, density, and the content of alkaline compounds.

Microwave amplifiers keep the noise down

Direct-current-powered microwave amplifiers that approach the quantum noise limit can be created through the control of emission processes in a superconducting circuit.
