Peroxisome induction can be expressed as an increase in peroxisome area (proliferation) or as an increase in peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation (activity). This study compares proliferation and activity as endpoints for hepatic peroxisome induction by perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA). Fluorocarboxylic acids such as PFDA represent a class of compounds possessing commercially important surfactant properties. A single 50 mg/Kg ip. dose of PFDA produces a characteristic “wasting syndrome” in male F-344 rats. Symptoms include hypophagia, weight loss, hepatomegaly, and delayed lethality. Hepatic studies reveal changes similar to those seen with the hypolipidemic agent clofibrate. These include mitochondrial disruption, endoplasmic reticulum and peroxisome proliferation, and increased peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase activity.Male Fisher-344 rats received a single ip. dose of 2, 20, or 50mg/Kg PFDA dissolved in 1:1 propylene glycol/water and were sacrificed 8 days post-dose. All control rats received an equal volume of vehicle ip. Animals were provided food and water ad libitum, except pair-fed controls which received the same restrictive food intake consumed by their weight-paired dosed partners (50mg/Kg PFDA group) to simulate the hypophagia associated with PFDA.

P Removal

Ca. 60 % of the Dutch activated sludge plants consist of completely mixed systems, experiments have been carried out in completely mixed pilot plants to study the biological P-removal. The research was carried out in two pilot plants. The pilot plants consisted of: anaerobic reactor, anoxic reactor, aerobic reactor and a clarifier. All the reactors were completely mixed. Both plants were fed with settled domestic waste water at a sludge loading of 400 and 250 g COD/kg sludge.day respectively. The results are given below:sludge loading (g COD/kg sludge.day)400400250ratio Anaerobic : Anoxic : Aerobic1: 1:2,71:1:4,11:1:2,7P-removal (%)802875N-removal (%)505065COD-removal (%)858585 It has been shown that there is no significant difference between the results at the two different sludge loadings. Remarkable is the difference between the ratio 1:1:2,7 in combination with the internal recirculation flow anoxic-anaerobic of 160 % and the ratio 1:1:4,1 with a recirculation flow of 30 %. During the start-up at a sludge loading of 250 g COD/kg sludge.day and an internal recirculation flow of 30 %, bulking sludge developed almost immediately. The Premoval was completely disturbed. Increasing the internal recirculation flow to 160% had a positive effect on settling properties and P-removal. This investigation has pointed out that a completely mixed system is suitable for biological P-removal, without negatively affecting the nitrification. Important factors in the process are the ratio anaerobic:anoxic:aerobic and the recirculation flows.

Nine strains of yeasts capable of decomposing oil were isolated in order to directly treat wastewater from oil manufacturing plants with no pretreatment. The oil decomposing ability of these yeast strains was evaluated in terms of lipase activity and β-oxidation activity. Since the mixture of the isolated yeasts was superior to any single strain in the oil removal rate, a pilot plant utilizing the mixed strains was operated at the soybean oil factory. Following a one year pilot plant operation, it was found that 10,000 mgℓ−1 of hexane extracts in the raw wastewater could be reduced by yeast treatment to a concentration of about 100 mgℓ−1. This concentration was further treated by the activated sludge process to 2 mgℓ−1. The dominant yeasts in the pilot plant were found to form mycelial or pseudomycelial pellets and have low fermenting ability.

Polymer Oxidation

The catalyst containing redox sites in addition to acid functional groups was prepared by sulphonation of a macroporous chloromethylated styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer with concentrated sulphuric acid at elevated temperatures. Its activity was tested for the oxidation of 2-propanol by molecular oxygen at 120 °C and was found to be comparable to that of the iridium on carbon catalyst.Neutralisation of acid functional groups by alkali metal led to proportional decrease in the oxidation activity. The results of EPR spectroscopic study of these catalysts show that the redox properties of the polymer are caused by carbon clusters which are capable of electron exchange.
