Abstract

Continued decreasing of the world’s average copper ore grades, coupled with a meteoric rise in the generation of consumer waste streams, has led to the processing of electronic scrap (e-scrap) and other secondaries assuming increasing importance within the global copper industry. Treatment of these secondary feeds has traditionally been carried out in the Blast furnace, Peirce-Smith converter and/or anode furnace. More recently however, bath smelting processes such as the Ausmelt TSL and Outotec Kaldo technologies have emerged as the preferred option for processing these materials due to their superior environmental performance and flexibility to operate under a wide range of conditions. Furthermore, the ability of these processes to handle a wide range of feed inputs make them ideally placed for the processing of not only e-scrap but also other waste streams from the clean energy transition such as end of life e-mobility batteries and photovoltaic systems. This paper focuses on the processing of electronic scrap and other copper secondaries with Ausmelt TSL technology and discusses specific issues facing secondary copper smelters in relation to impurity management and process offgas handling/cleaning.

Abstract

Abstract Background Syndrome of the trephined is a well-recognised phenomenon that occurs in patients following a craniectomy. It is associated with several symptoms, including headaches, motor impairments, cognitive disorders and reduced consciousness. Treatment for the syndrome usually involves replacing the skull defect. Case Study A 71-year-old male underwent a left-sided craniectomy after being diagnosed with biopsy-confirmed invasive squamous cell carcinoma with associated skull erosion. Subsequently, he developed a severe case of syndrome of the trephined (SoT,) resulting in having to lie flat to prevent the motor component of the Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) falling from M5/6 (E3/4 Vt M5/6) to M1 (E3/4 Vt M1) on sitting to 30 degrees. Unfortunately, due to ongoing chest sepsis and physical frailty, he was unable to undergo a cranioplasty. Therefore, to aid in clinical stabilisation, the treating physicians and clinical engineering teams designed and manufactured a prosthesis on-site, allowing rapid patient treatment. The prosthesis led to the patient being able to sit up to 30 degrees without the motor component of the GCS falling from M6 to M1 (E4 VT M6). Conclusion Clinical improvements were demonstrated with definitive neurological improvement after applying the external cranial plate in clinical outcome measures and radiographically. Furthermore, we have shown that rapid prototyping technology provides a flexible solution to synthesise bespoke medical prostheses with the correct expertise and regulatory framework.

20. A study of C. elegans embryonic membrane systems and their roles in spindle stability

Author

Abstract

In this thesis I describe a novel role for the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) in spindle positioning and stability in the early C. elegans embryo. Within the embryo the ER is intimately associated with the microtubule cytoskeleton and I show that the disruption of this association leads to instability of nuclear and spindle positioning. I first describe RNA interference screens that I performed to identify new genes involved in the regulation of spindle positioning. This led to the identification of three ER resident proteins that comprise C. elegans homologs of the Oligosaccharyl Transferase (OST) complex. Through characterisation of the spindle phenotypes induced by knockdown of OST components, I show that these proteins are similar to a diverse collection of mutants affecting the ER, such as the trans-membrane ER protein, ooc-3 and the npp (nuclear pore protein) genes. I found that identical nuclear and spindle instability phenotypes could be replicated by using the drug Brefeldin A to rapidly disrupt the ER, suggesting the ER might have a structural role in stabilizing nuclear and spindle position. I also provide evidence suggesting that the association between the ER and the microtubule cytoskeleton involves Clathrin heavy-chain (CHC). CHC may form part of the link between the ER and microtubule networks. Overall my results describe a role for the reticular ER network in stabilizing the assembling mitotic spindle and a potential new role for clathrin in linking the ER and microtubules. I addition, I show that Early Endosomes in the C. elegans embryo are polarized and asymmetrically segregated with the actin-myosin cytoskeleton, and present work optimizing the creation of transgenic lines by microparticle bombardment.

22. Practising autonomy well : character, politics and education

Author

Abstract

This thesis aims to show that a right to be able to practice autonomy well lies at the heart of liberal aspirations for individual flourishing. In the past, autonomy was associated with metaphysical or essentialist conceptions of the self. However, the diversity of contemporary liberal societies has meant that liberals now seek new conceptual resources to underpin their normative theories. This is accomplished here by decontesting a doctrine which recognises that liberal acceptance of the malleability of the elf can generate certain moral aspirations associated with practising autonomy in a liberal society. It then aims to highlight that the normative content of these aspirations can be attractively conceptualised by reviving the currently neglected concept of character. A right to be able to practice autonomy well implies that agents in liberal societies should possess a certain sort of character to do so. A liberal concept of character has two aspects: moral and individual. These two aspects together provide normative content and criteria for a liberal character-ethics which can be promoted by the liberal state (and civil society) to enable agents in liberal societies to practice autonomy well. And the philosophical presuppositions of promoting this liberal character-ethics can be helpfully understood in quasi-Foucauldian terms as the inculcation of specifically liberal ‘technologies of the self’. The final chapter uses the liberal doctrine defended throughout the thesis to examine the normative cogency of the programme of political education currently being implemented in English secondary schools. The thesis then concludes by highlighting that liberal aspirations for character, politics and education must be confidently explicated if they are to shape the processes of ‘governmentality’ in liberal democracies.

Abstract

The International Symposium on Pneumococci and Pneumococcal Diseases (ISPPD) is the premier global scientific symposium dedicated to the exchange, advancement and dissemination of the latest research on the pneumococcus, one of the world’s deadliest bacterial pathogens. Since the first ISPPD was held in 1998, substantial progress has been made to control pneumococcal disease, for instance, more than half of surviving infants (78.6 million) from 143 countries now have access to the life-saving pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV). The 11th ISPPD (ISPPD-11) was held in Melbourne, Australia in April 2018 and the proceedings of the symposium are captured in this report.Twenty years on from the first ISPPD, there remain many challenges and unanswered questions such as the continued disparity in disease incidence in Indigenous populations, the slow roll-out of PCV in some regions such as Asia, the persisting burden of disease in adults, serotype replacement and diagnosis of pneumococcal pneumonia. ISPPD-11 also put the spotlight on cutting-edge science including metagenomic, transcriptomic, microscopy, medical imaging and mathematical modelling approaches. ISPPD-11 was highly diverse, bringing together 1184 delegates from 86 countries, representing various fields including academia, primary healthcare, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, policymakers and public health.
