Batch culture of Ralstonia eutropha using the recycled gas closed circuit culture system was conducted in order to develop a practical fermentation system for industrial autotrophic culture for poly (hydroxybutrate) production. The gas phase of the culture system consisted of substrate gas so that gases in this culture could be recycled as long as the amount of the gas consumed would be repleni...

GEO 600 is a dual-recycled interferometric gravitational wave detector which uses advanced optical techniques to achieve its design sensitivity. The peak response of GEO is tunable over a range of frequencies within the detection band of the instrument. The accurate calibration of the detector is an essential step in preparing the data for distribution to the various analysis groups in the comm...

In this study, waste tire powder and waste liquid crystal display (LCD) glass sand are used as recycled materials. With a fixed water to binder ratio (W/B = 0.4), the use of fly ash and slag as cementreplacement materials. waste tire powder and waste LCD glass sand, which passed the sieve screen size # 30(0.595 mm), were used to replace fine aggregates at 0%, 5% and 10% in producing lightweight...

Household laundry as a new end use of recycled water in dual reticulation systems has a great potential as the significant amount of potable water from urban households can be saved. However, there is still no sufficient evidence and supporting recycled water quality guidelines for this particular use. A key gap in knowledge is the impact of heavy metals in recycled water on clothes and washing...

re area. In order to reduce the usage 99), Stone says that the 10mm recycled aggregate and blended stated that the use of recycled aggregate for the construction and rehabilitation of local government roads has a great improve in the last five years. C & D Recycling Industry (n.d.), the fact file stated that from the time of the Romans, the stones from the previous roads were reused when rebuil...

Neurons use a calcium-dependent mechanism to optimize the rate at which synaptic vesicles are recycled.

Australia is facing serious challenges in the management of water in various urban and regional locations. Two popular responses to these challenges are increasing supply through alternative water sources such as recycled and desalinated water. However, significant gaps exist in our knowledge of community attitudes to these alternative sources of water, particularly for potable use. This paper ...

This paper presents experimental research on structural behaviour of normal and recycled aggregate concrete filled steel tube (RACFT) columns externally strengthened with carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets and subjected to axial loading. A total of 22 specimens were tested to investigate the influence of the following variables: (1) tube configurations, circular or square, solid or h...

There is a worldwide and increasing shortage of potable fresh water. Modern water reclamation technologies can alleviate much of the problem by converting wastewater directly into drinking water, but there is public resistance to these approaches that has its basis largely in psychology. A psychological problem is encapsulated in the saying of those opposing recycled water: “toilet to tap.” We ...
