Sediment samples taken from 7 different stations in Izmir Inner Bay were analyzed for their total organic matter content and, Cu, Cr, Pb and Zn. In addition, the chemical distribution of the metals were determined by means of the BCR (Community Bureau of Reference) Extraction Procedure (developed by European Commission for Standards, Measurement and Testing) which allows the determination of metals bound as four fractions; exchangeable and acid soluble, reducible (bound to iron-manganese oxides), oxidizable (bound to organics) and residual. The results show that Izmir Inner Bay contains sediments with high metal concentrations. According to the chemical distribution of metals, Cr and Cu tend to accumulate mostly on the organic fraction of the sediment. Pb is mostly found in the reducible fraction where Zn is mobile in the sediment, and it is distributed evenly on each fraction.展开更多

The results indicated that the relationship between the effects of different overcharge currents on the increasing velocity of inner pressure and the degradation velocity of cycle life and discharge voltage remains in almost direct proportion. After overcharge cycles, the positive electrode materials remain the original structure, but there occur some breaks because of the irreversible expand of crystal lattice. And the negative electrode alloy particles have inconspicuous pulverization, but are covered with lots of corrosive products and its main component is rare earth hydroxide or oxide. These are all the main reasons leading to the degradation behavior of the discharge capacity and cycle life of Ni/MH batteries.展开更多
