Formation of aerobic granules by Mg(2+) and Al (3+) augmentation in sequencing batch airlift reactor at low temperature.
Summary of "Formation of aerobic granules by Mg(2+) and Al (3+) augmentation in sequencing batch airlift reactor at low temperature."
Aerobic granules technology (AGS) was difficult to cultivate at low temperature, and the treatment efficiency of domestic sewage was remarkably low because of low temperature, which greatly limits its development and application. AGS formation time significantly decreased for 43Â days by adding 19.0Â mg/L Mg(2+) and 21.0Â mg/L Al(3+), moreover, AGS possessed better simultaneously chemical oxygen demand, NH(4) (+)-N, TP removal efficiencies at low temperature, which the respective removal efficiencies were 85.6, 88.8, and 91.9%. The content of total polysaccharides was 8.23Â mg/gMLSS as well as the content of total protein was 8.52Â mg/gMLSS, consequently, the total proteins/total polysaccharides ratio was 1.04, which the relatively high protein content induced by Mg(2+) and Al(3+) presented an essential feature for AGS formation. In addition, the affinity among Mg(2+), Al(3+) and -OH may drive the stretching vibration of -OH band which led to the infrared motion of functional groups in AGS and accelerate AGS formation as well.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Radioactive Waste
Liquid, solid, or gaseous waste resulting from mining of radioactive ore, production of reactor fuel materials, reactor operation, processing of irradiated reactor fuels, and related operations, and from use of radioactive materials in research, industry, and medicine. (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
Sinorhizobium
A genus of gram-negative, aerobic, nonsporeforming rods which usually contain granules of poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate. (From Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology, 9th ed)
Bradyrhizobium
A genus of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria usually containing granules of poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate. They characteristically invade the root hairs of leguminous plants and act as intracellular symbionts.
High-throughput Nucleotide Sequencing
Techniques of nucleotide sequence analysis that increase the range, complexity, sensitivity, and accuracy of results by greatly increasing the scale of operations and thus the number of nucleotides, and the number of copies of each nucleotide sequenced. The sequencing may be done by analysis of the synthesis or ligation products, hybridization to preexisting sequences, etc.
Mammaplasty
Surgical reconstruction of the breast including both augmentation and reduction.
