Therefore, in this study, we focused on cloud-point extraction (CPE) without centrifugation, which separates PAHs from the washing solution through gravitational sedimentation. Specifically, we examined the conditions for the separation of phenanthrene (a typical PAH pollutant) from soil using CPE.
Cloud point extraction (CPE) involves the addition of a surfactant at a concentration above its critical micelle concentration (CMC). If the solution temperature is increased above the cloud point temperature of the surfactant, micelles are formed via dehydration, and become less soluble in water. ...

Effect of cloud point extraction and soil matrix on the sizing of AgNPs. In this study, the size determination of the silver nanoparticles in soil leachates can be affected by soil matrix because it contains diverse components with charged surfaces such as clay particles or humic acids [54, 55]. Hence, an evaluation of the potential matrix ...
The quality of the structuring of a highly dense 3D point cloud (in this study, 0.4 points per cm2) at the microscale therefore particularly depends on the choice of the algorithm. While graph-based methods are robust against noise or uneven density, edge-based and region-based methods are sensitive to noise [15].
