Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Biwen Pan"
- Biwen Pan's recent research focuses on the development of innovative materials for enhancing microbial biofilm colonization and nitrogen removal efficiency in wastewater treatment systems.
- In a 2023 study, Pan fabricated a novel hydrogel combining polyurethane foam, alginate, and zeolite, demonstrating accelerated biofilm formation and improved nitrogen removal capabilities through successful KSND bacteria encapsulation.
- Another significant finding from a 2020 study involved the use of chitosan beads to immobilize denitrifying bacteria, addressing challenges faced by traditional inoculants in open bioreactors, thereby enhancing stability and efficacy in domestic sewage systems.
