Quenched Flux-Coupling Superconducting Fault Current Limiter Scheme and Its Electromagnetic Design Method.

In order to solve the problem of excessive short-circuit current in the present power system, a fault current limiter has become a new type of power device with high demand and is one of the current research hotspots. The flux-coupling type superconducting fault current limiter (FC-SFCL) generates a current-limiting impedance through decoupling superconducting parallel inductance based on the circuit breakers' fractional interruption. The principle is simple, and the impedance is low during normal operation.

Pilot-scale enrichment of anammox biofilm using secondary effluent as source water.

Enough biomass of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacteria is essential for maintaining a stable partial nitrification/anammox (PN/A) wastewater treatment system. Present enrichment procedures are mainly labor-intensive and inconvenient for up-scaling. A simplified procedure was developed for enrichment of anammox biofilm by using secondary effluent as source water with no supplement of mineral medium and unstrict control of influent dissolved oxygen (DO).
