Reaction constants and heat release during thermophilic aerobic digestion of typical secondary and mixed sludges were determined. Maximum reaction constant, determined by measuring the amounts of biodegradable volatile suspended solids (bVSS) removed, occurred in the temperature range of 55-60 ºC. Measurement of heat releases were carried out, at the same range, by the aid of a temperature ...

In the temperature range of 10 to 80 ºC and in a batch digester, a typical activated sludge was digested aerobically. Reaction rate constants were determined by measuring the amounts of volatiles removed from the suspended solids at different time intervals during the process. The maximum value of the reaction rate constant (0.45 d-1) occurred in the temperature...

In the temperature range of 10 to 80 oC and in a batch digester, a typical activated sludge was digested aerobically. Reaction rate constants were determined by measuring the amounts of volatiles removed from the suspended solids at different time intervals during the process. The maximum value of the reaction rate constant (0.45 d ) occurred in the temperature range of 55-60 ̊C. Removal of indi...

The reoxidation rate of sponge iron pellets and briquettes and oxidation of pure iron powder with compressibility between 27% and 55% in air and within the temperature range 300-900°C has been investigated. Factors affecting the oxidation rate are presented. These include the effect of temperature, compressibility, and sintering of Fe-powder before and during the oxidation.

The conformational properties of CP-10(42-55), a peptide corresponding to the hinge region of CP-10, were investigated using circular dichroism spectroscopy and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The circular dichroism studies indicated that CP-10(42-55) formed considerable secondary structure in the presence of hydrophobic solution environments including 50% aceton...

This study provides a comprehensive overview of the temperature and zonal wind biases in eight reanalysis data products, with a focus on stratospheric levels. The study identifies biases in each reanalysis from the “reanalysis mean” (defined as the mean of the MERRA, ERA-Interim, and JRA-55 reanalyses). It then examines reanalysis temperature biases with respect to HIRDLS (an independent satell...
