a study was performed in hybrid up flow anaerobic sludge blanket (huasb) and anaerobic filter (af) reactors to compare the start-up time and optimum hrt required for the treatment of poultry slaughterhouse wastewater under similar loading conditions. initially, the reactors were started at an olr of 0.77 kg cod/m3.d and hrt of 36 h. loading rates were increased by reducing hrt 24, 16, 12, 10 an...

The climatological impact and chemical characteristics of atmospheric aerosols remain very uncertain. The latest step in this field is the experimental use of UV-lit gas-phase tube reactors to simulate days to weeks of atmospheric photochemistry. These reactors have typically been modeled as plug-flow reactors. We have constructed a more detailed model to describe the new laminar-flow tube reac...
