[Nitrogen removal and N2O emission characteristics during the shortcut simultaneous nitrification and denitrification process].

Complete simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) was achieved in an air lift circulation bioreactor. Based on this condition, the system could be switched to shortcut SND as the free ammonia (FA) concentration was increased with higher influent pH. The nitrogen removal and N2O emission characteristics of the shortcut SND process were investigated and those of the complete SND process were also observed as control.

[Effect of microbial aggregation state on nitrous oxide emission in simultaneous nitrification and denitrification nitrogen removal process].

In order to realize efficient nitrogen removal and N2O emission reduction, air lift circulation bioreactors were applied to study the relationship between activated sludge aggregation state and N2O emission characters on the basis of high nitrogen removal performance. The nitrification/denitrification activity of different microbial aggregates was evaluated by key enzyme action ratio method. Combined with correlative theoretical analysis, the optimal aggregation state with efficient nitrogen removal and N2O emission reduction was selected.

Preparation, characterization and photoluminescence properties of BaB2O4: Eu3+ red phosphor.

A new red emitting BaB2O4: Eu3+ phosphor was synthesized by solid-state reaction method. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the monoclinic formation of BaB2O4. Field-emission scanning electron-microscopy (FE-SEM) observation indicated that the microstructure of the phosphor consisted of irregular grains with heavy agglomerate phenomena.
