Comparative performance of mesophilic and thermophilic acidogenic upflow reactors
Two anaerobic acidogenic reactors, one mesophilic (37 8C) and one thermophilic (55 8C), were operated with a synthetic wastewater at a series of organic loading rates (OLRs). There was almost no difference between the two reactors for chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction, and degree of acidification at any given OLRs. However, the thermophilic reactor had a higher substrate degradation rate, ...
متن کاملMesophilic cyanobacteria producing thermophilic restriction endonucleases.
When searching for the site-specific endonucleases in several strains of Phormidium we made the following observations. Among the 16 strains that originated from 15 species of Phormidium, 12 produced one or more restriction enzymes, of which two produced the highly thermophilic restriction endonucleases PtaI and PpaAII with their optimum activity at 65-80 degrees C, which is far above the letha...
متن کاملComparison of mesophilic and thermophilic anaerobic digestion of sugar beet pulp: performance, dewaterability and foam control.
Digestion of sugar beet pulp was assessed in relation to biogas and methane production, foaming potential, and digestate dewaterability. Four 4-litre working volume digesters were operated mesophilically (37±0.5 °C) and four thermophilically (55±0.5 °C) over three hydraulic retention times. Digesters were operated in duplicate at organic loading rates (OLR) of 4 and 5 g volatile solids l(-1) da...
متن کاملBioleaching of Molybdenum by Two New Thermophilic Strains Isolated and Characterized
This study involves the isolation and characterization of a bacterial strain capable of bioleaching molybdenum ore. Bacterial growth was observed when rock sample was incubated in 9K at 70 ºC. The isolates were identified as extremely acidophilic, thermophilic and chemolithotroph archaebacteria. Following PCR amplification of the 16S rDNA of the isolated strain, the sequencing of this region an...
متن کاملP " OTENl BREAKDOWN IN THERMOPHILIC ANI ) MESOPHILIC FUNGI
1. The rate of protein breakdown was determined on growing and non-growing cultures ofthermophilic and mesophilic fungi. 2. In growing cells protein breakdown was negligible. 3. In non-growing cells the breakdown rate of total protein varied between 5.2%/h and 6.7 %/h. These values were found to be dependent on both the temperature of the protein breakdown assay and the temperature ofgrowth oft...
