Abstract:
In this study, the microbial community of nitrifying activated sludge adapted to Finnish climate conditions was studied to clarify the microbial populations involved in low-temperature nitrification. Microbial community analysis of five full-scale wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) showed several differences compared to WWTPs from other countries with a similar climate. In particular, very low abundance of ammonium oxidizing bacteria (AOBs) (altogether ˂ 0.25% of total community) as well as typical NOBs (˂0.35%) and a high abundance of orders Cytophagales and Micrococcales was observed in all

Abstract:
Grey domestic wastewater from septic tank contains high nitrogen content and low C/N ratio. Therefore, the aerobic biological treatment is often not effective for ammonium and nitrogen removal. The aim of this work was to study the performance of nitrogen removal and production of aerobic granular sludge using biochar produced from coffee husk pyrolyzed at 350oC as biocarrier. It was performed under the lab-scale SBR systems. Low C/N ratio domestic wastewater was used for this work. Coffee husk biochar (CFH 350) was added into the systems at different dosage. As a result, the biochar made from

Abstract:
The results of extensive transport studies in localized regime of mesoscopic two-dimensional electron systems (2DES) with varying disorder are presented. A quick overview of previously achieved result is given. The main focus is on the observation of density dependent instabilities manifested by strong resistance oscillations induced by high perpendicular magnetic fields B⊥. While the amplitude of the oscillations is strongly enhanced with increasing B⊥, their position in electron density remains unaffected. The temperature dependence of resistivity shows a transition from an activated behavio

An epoxy based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A was reacted with a long-chain poly(oxypropylene diamine) hardener in the presence of an accelerator, resulting in a flexible epoxy network. Tensile properties were tested as a function of accelerator concentration. All systems exhibited high levels of extensibility, with strain at failure values in excess of 65%. Molecular dynamics in a formulation containing 10 phr of accelerator were then examined using dielectric spectroscopy over the temperature range of 103–433 K. At low temperatures, a molecular relaxation process (γ relaxation) was obser

Three-dimensional temperature (T)–pressure (P)–composition (X) phase diagrams of binary carbon-hydrogen (C–H) and carbon-oxygen (C–O) systems for activated low pressure diamond growth have been calculated. Based on an approximation of linear combination between C–H and C–O systems, a projective ternary carbonhydrogen-oxygen (C–H–O) phase diagram has also been obtained. There is always a diamond growth region in each of these phase diagrams. Once a supply of external activating energy stops, the diamond growth region will not exist.

Increased precipitation and snowmelt during warmer winters may lead to low-temperature waterlogging of plants. Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is one of the most important cool-season grasses in agriculture.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of waterlogging on photosynthetic acclimation to cold in perennial ryegrass.

Organic photochromic molecules including diarylethenes are of particular interest for their potential applications in fields of high density optical data storage and light-activated switches, among many others. However, one of the limitations in diarylethene-based systems has been the low photoconversion observed in neat single crystals which is often less than 20%. The low conversion is typically believed to be the result of screening effects in which the photoisomerized molecules at the surface absorb incident light preventing full isomerization of the crystal.
