Abstract This study aimed to enhance the removal of phosphate in synthetic rural sewage by using a continuous electrocoagulation (EC) combined with biofilm process an integrated system. Characteristic indexes effluent covering pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), suspended solids (SS), chemical demand (COD) and maintained narrow fluctuation range tended not readily influence subsequent electrocoagulation...

Opening and closing the eyes are fundamental behaviors for directing attention to the external versus internal world. However, it remains unclear whether the states of eyes-open (EO) relative to eyes-closed (EC) are associated with different topological organizations of functional neural networks for exteroceptive and interoceptive processing (processing the external world and internal state, r...

the objective of this study was to formulate and evaluate the drug-polymer interaction of mefenamic acid (ma) using two polymers with different characteristics as ethylcellulose (ec) and/or cellulose acetate phthalate (cap). microspheres were prepared by the modified emulsion solvent evaporation (mese). the effect of drug-polymer interaction was studied for each of microspheres. important param...

background: phytoremediation is one of the methods used to remove contaminants and while being simple, cheap and efficient, does not cause environmental deterioration. the aims of this study were phytoremediation of soil contaminated by cd, the simultaneous survey of the influence of different electrical conductivity values, and comparison of two soil amendments including sludge and municipal c...

Purpose: The present study aimed to compare four methods of estimating anaerobic energy production during supramaximal exercise. Methods: Twenty-one junior cross-country skiers competing at a national and/or international level were tested on a treadmill during uphill (7°) diagonal-stride (DS) roller-skiing. After a 4-minute warm-up, a 4 × 4-min continuous submaximal protocol was performed foll...

Globalization of production and the increasing competitive pace spurs greater business use of online networks. As economic globalization extends its reach over cities and regions, the positions of regional economies within the emerging global paradigm is changing. Only those regions and cities that can mobilize assets for local advantage are expected to succeed. This research examines the role ...

aims: sludge is an inescapable component of all wastewaters that originated from their treatment. dissolved air flotation (daf) process as an alternative clarifier is used in treatment of drinking water, pretreatment of wastewater, and as a phase separator in sludge activation processes. this study aimed to calibrated the usage of daf process in a laboratory scale and under various conditions, ...

aims: intensification of current environmental legislation leads to an increase wastewater treatment sludge volume. so reducing the sludge volume is considered as a strategy to improve and solve the problems of secondary pollution of sludge. dissolved air flotation (daf) as a substitute clarifier is used for separation of activated sludge liquid-solid phases. the aim of this study was to estima...
