R&g., Mar. 1995, 18, (3). Disc&s an investigation of a novel open-cycle absorption heat pump capable of utilising low-grade heat sources such as solar heat, waste heat and the like. The cycle can operate at extremely small temperature differences between the heat source and sink, unlike most closedcycle systems.

A laboratory investigation of l,l,l-trichloroethane vapour adsorption on granular activated carbon made from bituminous coal and coconut shell, respectively, was conducted at 283,293,303 and 313 K. Results indicated that coconut shell carbon adsorption capacity was higher than that of bituminous coal carbon. 95105242

TWO sample series of roe. deer antlers were included in the analyses: one from the turn of the century, another covering the period from 1960 to 1992. All sam les from the second sample series were taken from oneyear-old animaPs belonging to a opulation of 200 animals living in a small deciduous forest, Ralo in Djurs Pand, near Arhus in Jutland. No increased ?jr signal was observed in the antlers after the Chernobyl accident in 1986, neither in the year of the accident nor in 1987, were possible contamination might have been expected. A possible explanation is that the concentration tn the antlers is mainly affected by strontium, directly deposited on fodder plants, during the period of formation of the antlers.

These simple models were comparative1 accurate in predicting maximum ground concentration. The accuracy of E 0 prediction was much influence by the assumption of vehicular composition. The uncertainty of emission sources other than vehicle emissions was an important error source in predicing NO, concentrations. 95105240
