A stable achievement of nitritation with strong nitrogenous wastewaters is considered as a difficult task in practice, probably due to the fate of interaction between dominating heterotrophs and nitrifier species. An experimental study was carried out to examine the organic effects in lab-scale biofilm nitritation reactors. The control unit without organic addition showed a stable nitritation performance for more than 220 days of operating period. The nitritation activity gradually failed at the reactors with an organic addition, but the nitritation activity eventually recovered with a prolonged aeration. It was not possible to explain the nitritation recovery with neither free ammonia inhibition concept nor DO competition hypothesis in these cases. The results suggest that the nitritation with organic requires a long start-up period for acclimation. In addition, the results of quinone profile analysis were in agreement with nitritation activity in reactors. The diversity of microbial community in the nitritation reactors could be described by the quinone profiles.

Pressure fluctuations strongly affect the performance stability of the Pump-turbine unit. According to previous research, pressure fluctuations observed between runner and guide vanes (vaneless area) have the large amplitudes and complicated sources. This article analyzed this type of pressure fluctuations in transient operating period, by carrying out observations in a pump-storage power station. Amplitudes and frequencies were analyzed to show the characteristics of pressure fluctuations caused by rotor-stator interaction, vibration and vortex.

The tilted beam illumination method is used to improve the resolution comparing with the axial illumination mode. Using this advantage, a restoration method of several tilted beam images covering the full azimuthal range was proposed by Saxton, and experimentally examined. To make this technique more reliable it seems that some practical problems still remain. In this report the restoration was attempted and the problems were considered. In our study, four problems were pointed out for the experiment of the restoration. (1) Accurate beam tilt adjustment to fit the incident beam to the coma-free axis for the symmetrical beam tilting over the full azimuthal range. (2) Accurate measurements of the optical parameters which are necessary to design the restoration filter. Even if the spherical aberration coefficient Cs is known with accuracy and the axial astigmatism is sufficiently compensated, at least the defocus value must be measured. (3) Accurate alignment of the tilt-azimuth series images.
