A new biofilm reactor for wastewater treatment, the moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR), is discussed. A general description of the reactor is given. Results from investigations of different applications (carbonaceous removal, nitrification and nitrogen removal) when used for municipal wastewater treatment, are discussed. Design values are given and it is demonstrated that use of this reactor res...

The paper describes the studies on the ageing research for upgrades using digital I&C system. After the ageing analysis of QNPP reactor protection system, we will upgrade the analog reactor protection system using digital system. The paper also describes the digital modernization oAf QNPP reactor protection system and the ageing study of the QNPP digital reactor protection system.

There are two generations of Gibbs sampling methods for semi-parametric models involving the Dirichlet process. The rst generation suuered from a severe drawback; namely that the locations of the clusters, or groups of parameters, could essentially become xed, moving only rarely. Two strategies that have been proposed to create the second generation of Gibbs samplers are integration and appendi...
