In this paper the performance and efficiency of UALR in dimethoate degradation were presented. The effects of O3 flow rate, ultrasonic intensity and initial concentration of dimethoate on degradation rate were investigated. UALR imposed a synergistic effect combining sonochemical merit with high O3 transfer rate. The results showed that UALR not only increased degradation rate, but also was better than the simole sum of degradation by O3 and ultrasound separately. Under the operation conditions of O3 flow of 0.34 m^3·h^-1, ultrasonic intensity 3.71 W.cm^-2, and initial concentration of dimethoate at 20 mg·L^- 1, the degradation rate of dimethoate increased to 80%. UALR seems an advisable choice for treating organic wastewater and this process may have wide application prospect in industry.展开更多

The present study aimed to investigate the propagation and growth of S. sagittifolia using a temporary immersion bioreactor system (TIBS) compared with conventional semi-solid and liquid culture. The effect of different immersion frequencies and immersion times together with supplementation of various plant growth regulators to the Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium was evaluated on shoot proliferation and plant growth. The results showed that the higher immersion frequency (every 6 h) and shorter immersion time (3 min and 10 rain) in medium containing 4 mg/L BA and 0.1 mg/L NAA produced the highest multiplication rate (23), which are significantly higher than conventional semi-solid (3.6) and liquid (4.5) method, and the best plant growth parameter. While, the lower immersion frequency and longer immersion time (30 rain every 12 h and 60 min every 24 h) induced vitrification and pollution rate in shoot tips 16.6% and 19%, 42% and 37%, respectively. There is distinct decrease in pollution rate (8.3%) in TIBS (10 min every 6 h) compared with the conventional semi-solid and liquid cultures. Medium containing 4 mg/L BA and 0.5 mg/L NAA using 10 min immersion every 6 h showed satisfaction at the rooting stage, with high shoot proliferation rate (21.6), 100% rooting and 94% plant survival. Therefore, applying TIBS in S. sagittifolia is an efficient method for scaling up the production of plantlets with high quality seedlings.展开更多

Comparative biological degradation processes of two types of activated sludge from municipal and pharmaceutical industry sewage treatment plants were examined. Three different organic loadings (0.05 g COD/g MLSS.d, 0.1 g COD/g MLSS.d and 0.2 g COD/g MLSS-d) and reaction time on the efficiency of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) decomposition were examined. Chemical oxygen demand, non-purgeable organic carbon as well as ammonium nitrogen contents were monitored by standard methods. Percentage of API decomposition was analysed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The overall API removal efficiency was strictly dependent on the type of activated sludge origin. The main biodegradation products were identified using HPLC-MS,1H NMR and 13C NMR methods as e.g. ({4-[3-(5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepin-5-yl]piperazin-l-yl}methanamine) and (2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-sulfonamide) for opipramol and acetazolamide respectively.展开更多
