The Effect of Post Heat Treatment on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Cold-Sprayed Zn-6Cu Deposits.

To explore the feasibility of preparing Zn alloy bulk, Zn-6Cu deposit was prepared by cold-spraying additive manufacturing. Microstructure, tensile and wear behavior were investigated before and after heat treatment. Cold-sprayed Zn-6Cu deposit was constituted by irregular flattening particles and pores after heat treatment.

Anaerobic digestates grown oleaginous microalgae for pollutants removal and lipids production.

Anaerobic digestates were potential mediums for cultivating oleaginous microalgae, but their various components brought uncertainties for aglal growth and lipids production. In this study, three microalgae strains were tested to grow on four typical anaerobic digestates. The results showed that anaerobic food wastewater was an optimal medium for C.

Growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa on different septic tank effluents from rural areas for lipids production and pollutants removal.

Septic tank effluent from rural areas was an ideal medium for cultivating oleaginous microalgae. However, the characteristics of septic tank effluents varied greatly due to the different incoming wastewater, and bring uncertain risks for algal growth. In this study, an oleaginous microalgae was cultivated in septic effluents from different mixed wastewater.

Nutrients recycling and biomass production from Chlorella pyrenoidosa culture using anaerobic food processing wastewater in a pilot-scale tubular photobioreactor.

Microalgae cultivation in anaerobic food wastewater was a feasible way for high biomass production and nutrients recycling. In this study, Chlorella pyrenoidosa culture on anaerobic food wastewater was processed outdoors using a pilot-scale tubular photobioreactor. The microalgae showed rapid growth in different seasons, achieving high biomass production of 1.

Optimization of algae mixotrophic culture for nutrients recycling and biomass/lipids production in anaerobically digested waste sludge by various organic acids addition.

Anaerobically digested waste sludge contains very high concentrations of ammonium and phosphate that are difficult to be purified using traditional processes. Mixotrophic culture of microalgae is a potential way to achieve ammonium and phosphate removal, while harvesting considerable biomass for biodiesel production. In this study, four typical volatile organic acids that could be potentially produced from sludge fermentation were tested for algal mixotrophic culture in anaerobically digested waste sludge.

Lipids production and nutrients recycling by microalgae mixotrophic culture in anaerobic digestate of sludge using wasted organics as carbon source.

Insufficient organics in anaerobic digestate of sludge limited algal mixotrophic culture and caused low lipids production. In this study, enhancing lipids production and pollutants removal by adding acidified starch wastewater was tested for Chlorella pyrenoidosa mixotrophic culture. The results showed that an optimal addition of acidified starch wastewater into anaerobic digestate of sludge (1:1, v/v) improved biomass and lipids production by 0.

Cultivation of Chlorella pyrenoidosa in anaerobic wastewater: The coupled effects of ammonium, temperature and pH conditions on lipids compositions.

Anaerobic wastewater potentially was an ideal medium for cultivating microalgae. The coupled effect of ammonium, temperature and pH on lipids accumulation was a core issue during algal culture using anaerobic wastewater. Therefore, their combined effects on Chlorella pyrenoidosa culture and lipids accumulation in anaerobic effluent were investigated.

Enhanced lipid and biomass production using alcohol wastewater as carbon source for Chlorella pyrenoidosa cultivation in anaerobically digested starch wastewater in outdoors.

Alcohol wastewater (AW) as carbon source for enhancing Chlorella pyrenoidosa growth and lipid accumulation in anaerobically digested starch wastewater (ADSW) was performed in outdoor cultivation. The biomass and lipid production significantly increased while adding optimal amount of AW (AW/ADSW=1:15) during exponential phase. In comparison with blank ADSW culture, the optimal AW addition increased the biomass production, lipid content and productivity by 35.

Outdoor cultures of Chlorella pyrenoidosa in the effluent of anaerobically digested activated sludge: The effects of pH and free ammonia.

A freshwater algae Chlorella pyrenoidosa was cultured outdoors using anaerobically digested activated sludge effluent. The effects of pH variations were evaluated. The coupled pH variations and free ammonia toxicity significantly affected the algal growth, lipids accumulation and contamination control during every season.

Chlorella pyrenoidosa cultivation in outdoors using the diluted anaerobically digested activated sludge.

A freshwater green algae Chlorella pyrenoidosa (C. pyrenoidosa) was cultured in outdoors using the diluted anaerobically digested activated sludge (ADAS). The outdoors batch culture in every season showed that C.

Continuous cultivation of Chlorella pyrenoidosa using anaerobic digested starch processing wastewater in the outdoors.

Microalgae cultivation using wastewater might be a suitable approach to support sustainable large-scale biomass production. Its compelling characteristics included the recycling of nutrients and water resources, reducing carbon emissions and harvesting available biomass. In outdoor batch and continuous cultures, Chlorella pyrenoidosa completely adapted to anaerobic digested starch processing wastewater and was the dominant microorganism in the photobioreactor.
