Smart Flat Membrane Sheet Vibration-Based Energy Harvesters

The dynamic responses of membrane are completely dependent on Pre-tensioned forces which are applied over a boundary of arbitrary curvilinear shape. In most practical cases, the dynamic responses of membrane structures are undesirable. Whilst they can be designed as vibration-based energy harvesters. In this paper a smart flat membrane sheet (SFMS) model for vibration-based energy harvester is ...

Highly effective NO decomposition by in situ removal of inhibitor oxygen using an oxygen transporting membrane.

Due to the in situ removal of the inhibitor oxygen using an oxygen transporting membrane, a complete conversion of NO to N(2) was achieved for the first time in a catalytic perovskite membrane reactor.

Biomass effects on oxygen transfer in membrane bioreactors.

Ten biomass samples from both municipal and industrial pilot and full scale submerged membrane bioreactors (MBRs) with mixed liquor suspended solids concentrations (MLSS) ranging from 7.2 to 30.2g L(-1) were studied at six air-flow rates (0.7, 1.3, 2.3, 3, 4.4 and 6m(3)m(-3)h(-1)). Statistical analyses were applied to identify the relative impacts of the various bulk biomass characteristics on ...

Membrane alternatives in worlds without oxygen: Creation of an azotosome

The lipid bilayer membrane, which is the foundation of life on Earth, is not viable outside of biology based on liquid water. This fact has caused astronomers who seek conditions suitable for life to search for exoplanets within the "habitable zone," the narrow band in which liquid water can exist. However, can cell membranes be created and function at temperatures far below those at which wate...
