Airlift inner circulation reactor (AICR) consisting of beaker and built-in aeration tank was introduced in this paper. The Dissolved oxygen recovery (RDO) was highly influenced by the ratios of the height of built-in aeration tank to the height of liquid level in reactor (Rh/H), the diameter of built-in aeration tank to the diameter of the reactor (Rd/D) and aeration rate (QN). Average RDO of 24.25 m.gm-3.s-s and DO concentration of 8.97mg.l-1 were obtained at Rd/D=0.47, Rh/H=0.68 and QN =1.0m3.m-3.min-1 for aerating 370s at 17°C. The total transferred oxygen in 4L deoxidized water reached 35.89mg, which had an increase by 11.15% than that of the traditional airlift reactor (AR). The DO concentration was 88.33-9.34mg.l-1 for AICR, but it’s only 7.71-8.58mg.l-1 for AR.

Pressure Swirl

This study developed a new type of micro-pressure swirl reactor (MPSR) for treating rural domestic sewage with variable water volume in northern China. The transformation of a traditional aeration tank to MPSR was mainly divided into three steps. Firstly, the aeration device was installed on one side of the aeration tank. Secondly, most of the top cover plate was sealed. Finally, the liquid level-lifting zone was set to achieve micro-pressure. The study measured the flow velocity and dissolved oxygen (DO) distribution in the main reaction zone of MPSR, studied the effects of MPSR sewage treatment in continuous operation mode and sequential batch operation mode, and analyzed the main microbial species. The experimental results showed that a stable circular circle flow and a spatial DO gradient in MPSR were formed when the aeration rate of MPSR was 0.2 m3/h. Through the MPSR sewage treatment experiment in two operation modes, it could meet the current requirements of rural environmental pollution controlled in China. Analysis of the types of microorganisms showed that microorganisms with different functions gathered in different zones of the MPSR due to the different dissolved oxygen environment and water flow environment, which further improved the ability of MPSR to simultaneously remove nitrogen and phosphorus.

Short Term Effects

Short term effects of dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration on the supernatant turbidity of activated sludge were studied in batch reactors, continuous reactors and in a full scale plant. Adsorption of colloidal material onto activated sludge was studied in batch reactors. The adsorption capacity of colloidal material, expressed as removal of turbidity, was larger in aerobic than in anaerobic conditions. The difference in adsorption capacity between high (≥5 mg/l) and low (<0.5 mg/l) DO concentrations was small. Experiments were made in pilot scale completely mixed reactors where the oxygen supply was turned off during different periods of length (1-4 hours). The turbidity increased directly when the anaerobic period started and decreased when the aerobic period started. Similar results were obtained when the influent was turned off. A few full scale experiments were carried out. The aerators were adjusted to change the DO concentration along the aeration tank (plug flow) for periods of 3-6 hours. Low DO concentrations by the end of the aeration tank produced a turbidity increase of the effluent, while low DO concentrations in the first half of the aeration tank did not affect the turbidity to a large extent.

AbstractpH, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration are important parameters in water quality surveillance and treatment. The changes of these parameters are associated with electron density in water. Several techniques including electrolysis and catalysis which require redox reactions and electron exchange are employed to improve these parameters. In recent years, studies reported that magnetic effects can impart considerable changes on the pH, ORP and DO concentration of water. However, the correlation between electron density and magnetic effects on these parameters has yet to be disclosed despite the fact that increased electron density in water could improve water’s reductive properties, heat capacity and hydrogen bonding characteristics. In this study, the magnetic effects on pH, ORP and DO concentration were investigated using different magnets arrangements and water flow rates based on reversed electric motor principle. Results showed that the improvement of pH, ORP and DO concentration from 5.40–5.42 to 5.58–5.62 (+ 3.5%), 392 to 365 mV (− 6.9%), and 7.30 to 7.71 mg L− 1 (+ 5.6%), respectively were achieved using combined variables of non-reversed polarity magnet arrangement (1000–1500 G magnetic strength) and water flow rate of 0.1–0.5 mL s− 1. Such decrement in ORP value also corresponded to 8.0 × 1013 number of electron generation in water. Furthermore, Raman analysis revealed that magnetic effect could strengthen the intermolecular hydrogen bonding of water molecules and favor formation of smaller water clusters. The findings of this study could contribute to potential applications in aquaculture, water quality control and treatment of cancer attributed to free radical induced-oxidative stress.

Water quality in three different stations of Merbok estuary was investigated limnologically from October, 2010 to September, 2011. Water temperature, transparency and total suspended solids (TSS) varied from 27.45 - 30.450C, 7.5 - 120 cm and 10 -140 mg/l, respectively. Dissolved Oxygen (DO) concentration ranged from 1.22-10.8 mg/l, while salinity ranged from 3.5-35.00 ppt. pH and conductivity ranged from 6.35 - 8.25 and 40 - 380 ?S/cm, respectively. Kruskal Wallis H test shows that water quality parameters were significantly different among the sampling months and stations (p<0.05). This study revealed that DO, salinity, conductivity and transparency were higher in wet season and TSS was higher in dry season. On the other hand, temperature and pH did not follow any seasonal trends.Bangladesh J. Zool. 41(1): 13-19, 2013

In a fermentation process, dissolved oxygen is the one of the key process variables that needs to be controlled because of the effect they have on the product quality. In a penicillin production, dissolved oxygen concentration influenced biomass concentration. In this paper, multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network is used in modeling penicillin fermentation process. Process data from an industrial scale fed-batch bioreactor is used in developing the models with dissolved oxygen and penicillin concentration as the outputs. RBF neural network model gives better accuracy than MLP neural network. The model is further used in fuzzy logic controller design to simulate control of dissolved oxygen by manipulation of aeration rate.  Simulation result shows that the fuzzy logic controller can control the dissolved oxygen based on the given profile.

Beach erosion and water quality degradation have been observed in Singleton Swash, a tidal creek that traverses the beach-face connecting land and ocean in Myrtle Beach, SC. The objective of this study in Singleton Swash is to explore relationships between water quality and hydrodynamics, where the latter are influenced by beach face morphology. We measure water velocities, water levels, and dissolved oxygen concentrations (DO) (a proxy for water quality) and apply correlation analysis to examine the relationships between physical processes and dissolved oxygen variations. Results show that larger tidal ranges are associated with higher mean levels of DO in the tidal creek. The larger tidal ranges are linked to larger magnitude currents, which increase both the DO transport via larger fluxes of oxygenated oceanic water into the swash and the magnitude of Reynolds shear stresses; due to tidal asymmetries, flood currents are stronger than ebb currents in this system. Based on these results, it is concluded that the combined transport of oxygenated waters into the tidal creek from the ocean on large flood tides and subsequent mixing due to large Reynolds shear stresses result in the observed net DO concentration increases in the creek over tidal cycles.

Abstract. Dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in the ocean is an important component of marine biogeochemical cycles and will be greatly altered as climate change persists. In this study a global oceanic carbon cycle model (HAMOCC 2.0) is used to address how mechanisms of oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) expansion respond to changes in CO2 radiative forcing. Atmospheric pCO2 is increased at a rate of 1 % annually and the model is stabilized at 2 ×, 4 ×, 6  ×, and 8 × preindustrial pCO2 levels. With an increase in CO2 radiative forcing, the OMZ in the Pacific Ocean is controlled largely by changes in particulate organic carbon (POC) export, resulting in increased remineralization and thus expanding the OMZs within the tropical Pacific Ocean. A potential decline in primary producers in the future as a result of environmental stress due to ocean warming and acidification could lead to a substantial reduction in POC export production, vertical POC flux, and thus increased DO concentration particularly in the Pacific Ocean at a depth of 600–800 m. In contrast, the vertical expansion of the OMZs within the Atlantic is linked to increases POC flux as well as changes in oxygen solubility with increasing seawater temperature. Changes in total organic carbon and increase sea surface temperature (SST) also lead to the formation of a new OMZ in the western subtropical Pacific Ocean. The development of the new OMZ results in dissolved oxygen concentration of  ≤  50 µmol kg−1 throughout the equatorial Pacific Ocean at 4 times preindustrial pCO2. Total ocean volume with dissolved oxygen concentrations of  ≤  50 µmol kg−1 increases by 2.4, 5.0, and 10.5 % for the 2 ×, 4 ×, and 8 × CO2 simulations, respectively.

Dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration is a vital parameter that indicates water quality. We present here DO short term forecasting using time series analysis on data collected from an aquaculture pond. This can provide the basis of data support for an early warning system, for an improved management of the aquaculture farm. The conventional forecasting approaches are commonly characterized by low accuracy and poor generalization problems. In this article, we present a novel hybrid DO concentration forecasting method with ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD)-based LSTM (long short-term memory) neural network (NN). With this method, first, the sensor data integrity is improved through linear interpolation and moving average filtering methods of data preprocessing. Next, the EEMD algorithm is applied to decompose the original sensor data into multiple intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Finally, the feature selection is used to carefully select IMFs that strongly correlate with the original sensor data, and integrate into both inputs for the NN. The hybrid EEMD-based LSTM forecasting model is then constructed. The performance of this proposed model in training and validation sets was compared with the observed real sensor data. To obtain the exact evaluation accuracy of the forecasted results of the hybrid EEMD-based LSTM forecasting model, four statistical performance indices were adopted: mean absolute error (MAE), mean square error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). Results are presented for the short term (12-h) and the long term (1-month) that are encouraging, indicating suitability of this technique for forecasting DO values.

In this study, a new structure of high-load membrane bioreactor (HLB-MR) was used to treat urban sewage, and the effects of dissolved oxygen (DO) on biological flocculation and membrane pollution were researched. Parallel comparative experiments were used to investigate the concentration and recovery efficiency of organic matter, the bioflocculation effect, the content of extracellular polymer substance (EPS), the concentration of metal cations, membrane fouling status and microbial community structure in the reactors under the conditions of 1–2 and 6–8 mg/L. The flocculation efficiency of HLB-MR was 83% and 89% when DO was 1–2 and 6–8 mg/L, respectively. Under DO of 6–8 mg/L, the contents of bound and free EPS in the HLB-MR were 15.64 mg/gVSS and 8.71 mg/L, respectively. These values were significantly higher than those obtained when DO was 1–2 mg/L (11.83 mg/gVSS and 6.56 mg/L, respectively). Moreover, the concentrations of magnesium and aluminum in the concentrate of the HLB-MR were significantly higher when DO was 6–8 mg/L. Under higher DO concentration, there would be more EPS combined with metal cations, and thus fixed in the sludge substrate, the process of which promoted the bioflocculation. Changes in the transmembrane pressure (TMP) showed that the HLB-MR at a higher DO concentration suffered more serious membrane fouling. The species difference between the supernatant and precipitate was more significant under a higher DO concentration. The plankton species in the supernatant, e.g., norank_p__Saccharibacteria, norank_f__Neisseriaceae, and 12up, were likely to exacerbate membrane fouling. However, the species in the precipitate like Trichococcus, Ornithinibacter, and norank_f__Saprospiraceae may have a positive effect on bioflocculation.
