Role and variations of supernatant compounds in submerged membrane bioreactor fouling [PDF]
Many studies have been performed to analyze the influence of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in membrane fouling. Most of these works deal with the impact of solid contents in the fouling, and some of them have studied the role ofsupematant ...

Thermally safe operation of a cooled semi-batch reactor: slow liquid-liquid reactions [PDF]
Thermally safe operation of a semi-batch reactor (SBR) implies that conditions leading to strong accumulation of unreacted reactants must be avoided. All thermal responses of a SBR, in which a slow liquid-liquid reaction takes place, can be represented ...

Measurements of 235U(nth,f) Spectrum Averaged Cross Sections (SACS) in zero power reactors [PDF]
This paper deals with the measurement of Spectrum Averaged Cross Sections in two different neutron fields formed in zero power reactors. The first was Benchmark Neutron Reference Field in the LR-0 reactor, and the second field was in the center of the ...

Stoichio-kinetic modeling and optimization of chemical synthesis: Application to the aldolic condensation of furfural on acetone [PDF]
The condensation reaction of furfural (F) on acetone (Ac) gives a high added value product, the 4-(2-furyl)-3-buten-2-one (FAc), used as aroma in alcohol free drinks, ice, candies, gelatines and other products of current life.

Switchable opening and closing of a liquid marble via ultrasonic levitation [PDF]
Liquid marbles have promising applications in the field of microreactors, where the opening and closing of their surfaces plays a central role. We have levitated liquid water marbles using an acoustic levitator and, thereby, achieved the manipulation of ...

Parametrization of Seesaw Models and Light Sterile Neutrinos [PDF]
The recent recomputation of the neutrino fluxes from nuclear reactors relaxes the tension between the LSND and MiniBooNE anomalies and disappearance data when interpreted in terms of sterile neutrino oscillations.

Towards distributed diagnosis of the Tennessee Eastman process benchmark [PDF]
A distributed hybrid strategy is outlined for the isolation of faults and disturbances in the Tennessee Eastman process, which would build on existing structures for distributed control systems, so should be easy to implement, be cheap and be widely ...

Calculation and measurement of Al prompt capture gammas above water in a pool-type reactor
Prompt capture gammas are an important part of the fission reactor gamma field. Because some of the structural materials after neutron capture can emit photons with high energies forming the dominant component of the gamma spectrum in the high energy ...
