Aerobic sludge digestion in the presence of Fenton's reagent and hydrogen peroxide was examined. Fenton's reagent considerably improved the aerobic digestion process in comparison with hydrogen peroxide as well as classical aerobic digestion. Application of Fenton's reagent also led to improvement of settling and dewatering properties of sludge and much better clarity of supernatant. Its drawba...

The contributions of aerobic and anaerobic muscle metabolism to the heat produced in porcine malignant hyperthermia were studied in seven Pietrain pigs. Oxygen consumption measurements were used to calculate the increase in muscle temperature as a result of aerobic metabolism and this was compared with the observed muscle temperature. The results show that in the initial stage of porcine malign...

Background: Type 2 diabetes is a global health problem and a major cause of illness. Exercise, diet and medication are the three pillars in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of aerobic training combined with green tea hydroalcoholic extract consumption on blood glucose and lipid profile on diabetic rats. Methods: Diabetes ...

Aerobic granular sludge was cultivated adopting internal-circulate sequencing batch airlift reactor. The contradistinctive experiment about short-term membrane fouling between aerobic granular sludge system and activated sludge system were investigated. The membrane foulants was also characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy technique. The results showed that the aerobic g...

Aerobic treatment has many advantages including: 1) minimum odor when properly loaded and maintained; 2) large biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) removals providing a good quality effluent; 3) high rate treatment allowing smaller scale systems, e.g., less land required; 4) the final discharge may contain dissolved oxygen which reduces the immediate oxygen demand on a receiving water; and 5) the ae...

The microbiology of perirectal abscesses in 144 patients was studied. Aerobic or facultative bacteria only were isolated in 13 (9%) instances, anaerobic bacteria only were isolated in 27 (19%) instances, and mixed aerobic and anaerobic flora were isolated in 104 (72%) instances. A total of 325 anaerobic and 131 aerobic or facultative isolates were recovered (2.2 anaerobic isolates and 0.9 aerob...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercise on brain natriuretic peptide (bnp) and c-reactive protein (crp) levels in women with cardiovascular diseases. materials and methods: in this semi experimental study, thirty female patients with at least one coronary artery stenosis (more than70%) were chosen and divided into two groups of aerobic training (n=15)...
