Synthesized wastewater containing quinoline photocatalytic oxidized at 0, 30 and 60 min respectively were applied in flask cultivation of activated sludge to evaluate the changes of activities of dehydrogenase, protease and urease in activated sludge with reference is glucose. The experiment results showed that quinoline aqueous solution after photodegradation of 60 min appeared to inconspicuous influence on the activities of dehydrogenase and protease, while after photodegradation of 0 min or 30 min the effluents presented obviously inhabitation. However, the urease activity cultured in all photodegradated quinoline solutions was higher than that in glucose medium due to the effect of C-N bond induction. Under the tested conditions, the optimal pretreatment time of photocatalysis system was observed at 60 minutes, which suggested that enzyme activity in activated sludge was benefited to investigate the biodegradability of wastewater for evaluating the optimal reaction time for photocatalytic pretreatment system.

Red mud has been used to develop effective adsorbents to remove phosphate from aqueous solution. The effects of different dosage, pH of solution and reaction time on adsorption have been examined in batch experiments. It was found that red mud samples show higher removal efficiency for phosphate. The results showed that phosphate removal efficiency was found to be 97 % with optimal reaction conditions initial phosphate concentration 100mg L−1, red mud dosage 10g L−1, pH 2.0, respectively. The phosphate removal efficiency of the red mud adsorbents decreases with increase of pH.

AbstractIn this study, the characteristics of a bioflocculant produced by using activated sludge as raw materials were investigated. The performance of this bioflocculant in the removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution and the corresponding mechanisms were determined as well. After cultivating a bioflocculant-producing strain in an alkaline thermal pre-treatment sludge for 60 h, approximately 4.45 g of bioflocculant containing a protein backbone was harvested from 1 L of fermentation broth. This bioflocculant can remove 98.5% of Pb(II) from aqueous solutions under optimal conditions, which include a bioflocculant dosage of 6 mg/L and a CaCl2 concentration of 70 mg/L at a pH of 6.5.

The metastable zone width of an aqueous solution of KCI was measured as a function of the time and temperature of overheating above the equilibrium solubility temperature. It has been found that when the experiments follow close upon one another, the parameters of the preceding experiment affect the results of the experiment to follow.The results are interpreted in terms of hypotheses advanced in the literature to account for the effect of thermal history of solution. The plausibility and applicability of these hypotheses are assessed for the given cause of aqueous solution of a well soluble electrolyte.

AbstractIn this study, a new optical method is presented to determine the concentrations of NaCl and glucose aqueous solutions by using a thermo-elastic optical indicator microscope. By measuring the microwave near-field distribution intensity, concentration changes of NaCl and glucose aqueous solutions were detected in the 0–100 mg/ml range, when exposed to microwave irradiation at 12 GHz frequency. Microwave near-field distribution intensity decreased as the NaCl or glucose concentration increased due to the changes of the absorption properties of aqueous solution. This method provides a novel approach for monitoring NaCl and glucose in biological liquids by using a CCD sensor capable of visualizing NaCl and glucose concentrations without scanning.
