"Love Grandma"





I love my grandma so much..Ive been staying with her since Im out from momma's tummy...
My mom and dad used to work when i was little, so they have been very bz. I only have my brother and grandma with me...Anytime that i want my grandma, there she is...I used to accompany her whenever she need to go to the Hospital Besar Ipoh as she was diagnosed with high blood pressure..So need to go and do her medical check up every 2 months and took her medicine..Im so closed with her but now my grandma cant recognized us at all, cant even mention my name, look at me, and telling me its you, SHINA..i miss her saying that to me..Miss her cooking, she will usually cook whatever i have requested..especially her nice daging masak itam...my favourite..
We used to chit chat, telling me her story, her very own story bout life and so on..Now she is very old and yet sick...she got Alzheimer, stomach ulcer and dont know what else...I rushed to ipoh saturday morning knowing that she vomited, its black in color..I just want her to be healthy but what can i expect at her age of 80++..just hope that she will do just fine...MISS HER SO MUCH...

Continue with Nickel 5 and 1ppm

samples

Pouring UPW into the reactor

after withdraw samples

my work area


As for today, i continue on my work for the Nickel (5 and 1 ppm)...Finished for Nickel and will continue with Zinc probably tomorrow...Need to measure pH and temperature as well for the previous sample before run it with ICP (next 2 weeks).

Emmm..whats so special bout today? At around 10 am, one undergrad student came to me asking bout kernel seeds. He wanted to check on the cations and anions, mentioned metal but telling me anions..heheh so i asked him to check again..cant blame them, they keep on stressing that they are civil's not from science background..heheh okay, okay, i understand..so i gave him a short explanation on what instrument to use, what actually u can detect, the expected concentration n many more..well, thank god he understand it and appreciate even though i didnt help him much..hehe

enough of that, the serious disaster for today was..The stopper tercabut while i angkat the reactor..and oh my, splashed all over my shirt and the floor..so im all wet, plus have to clean up the floor..no mop here, n i was like cinderella story, cleaning it up with tissue paper..hhuhu...i have a helper, Nik..she insist to help me, so she clean it up too..

Done with that, n Im now having a serious headache...uhhh...im waiting for the metals to be well mixed actually, have about 7 minutes more...prepare for the worse..hahah coz while i was filling the syringe with nitrogen gas for previous set, the syringe just dont want to move as the gas are filling it, which will sudden "pop" when excess gas in it...thats what im so AFRAID of...

Baby, before its too late..

Events coming up: PTAR 1


Confused again..


Now im confused again...wondering how to calculate all those sulphur compound

thiosulphate+sulphate+sulphite+hydrosulphide/sulphide

The influent and effluent, I got it..but how to match it with the results for biofilm reactor and the one that comes in the precipitation reactor..how to know how much sulphide have comes in???

hmmm....calculate here and there, thinking on how to actually do it...need lot of thinking, YA, i know that...it looks ez at 1st, just by telling people " the effluent minus influent" YES! sherina..thats how it works but it doesnt seems to be as simple as that! huh, thought so, only just now..haha

As far as what i know now, the TOTAL SULPHUR COMPOUND IN BIOFILM REACTOR shud minus the TOTAL SULPHUR COMPOUND IN PRECIPITATION REACTOR...AM I CORRECT?

OKAY, SO LETS TRY TO CALCULATE 1ST...

Nickel 20 & 10ppm

aluminum foil used for wrapping sulphide tubes

the MOX nitrogen gas, i was so afraid to use this. Coz ive been knocked, haha when the gas released too much..now no more..

sample bottle for metals

tubes for sulphide with my eppendorf timer

purging wastewater for 10mins

withdrawing samples: the inlet from biofilm reactor

withdrawing samples:the inlet from the artificial wastewater

Lets continue with what i left yesterday, with different concentration of nickel; 20 & 10ppm..
