Abstract This study compares, based on mathematical modelling, continuous-flow activated sludge processes (CAS) and sequencing batch reactors (SBR). The steady-state or periodic of CAS SBR is compared for a feed composed readily slowly biodegradable substrates, carbon nitrogen removal. simulations are carried out different values the SRT (solids residence time), HRT (hydraulic number cycles int...

Artificial municipal wastewater was treated successfully by the bioaugmentation of Bacillus sp. K5 capable of simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) within a sequencing batch reactor (SBR). During the long-term operation, the bioaugmentation system exhibited an excellent and steady COD and NH4+-N removal without nitrite and nitrate accumulation. The average removal efficiency for ...

this paper deals with the interfacial effects of silica fume (sf) and styrene-butadiene polymer (sbr) on compressive strength of concrete. analyzing the compressive strength results of 32 concrete mixes performed over two water-binder ratios (0.35, 0.45), four percentages replacement of silica fume (0%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%) and four percentages of sbr (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%) were investigated. a mathemati...

PURPOSE The aim of this article is to investigate the effect of transcorneal electrical stimulation (TES) on chorioretinal blood flow in healthy human subjects. METHODS The chorioretinal blood flow of 10 healthy subjects was measured before and after TES by laser speckle flowgraphy and expressed as the square blur rate (SBR). The chorioretinal blood flow was determined before and immediately ...

We analyze the strong relationship among three combinatorial problems, namely, the problem of sorting a permutation by the minimum number of reversals (MIN-SBR), the problem of finding the maximum number of edge-disjoint alternating cycles in a breakpoint graph associated with a given permutation (MAX-ACD), and the problem of partitioning the edge set of an Eulerian graph into the maximum numbe...

Objective: To assess the performance of SBR to treat three different types of wastewater from domestic, hospital, slaughterhouse and investigate the kinetic rates of active biomass. Mass balance calculation of COD, TKN and TP was further performed to explain the mechanisms of the biological nutrient removals processed in the SBR system. The measured kinetic rates were in turn used to evaluate t...

A relationship between dopamine and temperament has previously been described in human cases of dopaminergic dysfunction. Adjustment in temperament prior to disease manifestation can enable the early identification of individuals at risk of such conditions, and scope exists to extend this application of temperament alterations to cases of dopaminergic dysfunction in horses. A multivariate and m...

The epistemic conditions of rationality and m th?order strong belief (R SBR; Battigalli Siniscalchi, 2002) formalize the idea that players engage in contextualized forward?induction reasoning. This paper characterizes behavior consistent with R SBR across all type structures. In particular, a class generic games, R( ? 1)SBR is characterized by new solution concept we call an ?best response sequ...
