Substituent effects on the oxidation of substituted biphenyl congeners by type II methanotroph strain CSC1
(Springer-Verlag, 2005-05)
The oxidation potential of type II groundwater methanotroph, strain CSC1, expressing soluble methane monooxygenase, was measured in the presence of 10 ortho -substituted biphenyls with varying electronics, sterics, and ...
Application of sieve-tray air strippers to the treatment of surfactant-containing wastewaters
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2001-06)
Using sieve-tray air stripping as a means of removing contaminants from surfactant solutions was studied to determine if tray air stripping can be applied successfully to treating surfactant-containing wastewaters and, if ...
Surface complexation models: An evaluation of model parameter estimation using FITEQL and oxide mineral titration data
(Elsevier, 1991-03-15)
The ability of surface complexation models (SCMs) to fit sets of titration data as a function of changes in model parameters was evaluated using FITEQL and acid-base titration data of [alpha]-FeOOH, [alpha]-Al2O3, and TiO2. ...
Large volume, high-performance applications of fibers in civil engineering
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2002-01-18)
This article presents an overview of fiber applications in cementitious composites. The socio-economic considerations surrounding materials development in civil engineering in general, and fiber reinforced cementitious ...
Inhibitory effects of the macrolide antimicrobial tylosin on anaerobic treatment
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2008-09-01)
A laboratory-scale anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (ASBR) was operated using a glucose-based synthetic wastewater to study the effects of tylosin, a macrolide antimicrobial commonly used in swine production, on treatment ...
Dichloromethane and trichloroethylene inhibition of methane oxidation by the membrane-associated methane monooxygenase of Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1999-04)
Whole-cell assays were used to measure the effect of dichloromethane and trichloroethylene on methane oxidation by Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b synthesizing the membrane-associated or particulate methane monooxygenase ...
Transformation of ortho-substituted biphenyls by Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b: substituent effects on oxidation kinetics and product formation
(Springer-Verlag, 2000-08)
The ability of Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b, expressing soluble methane monooxygenase, to oxidize a range of ortho- substituted biphenyls was examined to better understand how substituents affect both the rate and ...
Influence of Downstream Control and Limited Depth on Flow Hydrodynamics of Impinging Buoyant Jets
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2003-06)
Much study has been performed on the mixing properties of submerged, turbulent buoyant jets. It is safe to say that the problem of estimating dilution rates in vertical buoyant jets spreading in an `infinitely deep' ambient ...
Degradation of chlorinated and brominated hydrocarbons by Methylomicrobium album BG8
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1999-11)
The degradation kinetics of ten halogenated hydrocarbons by Methylomicrobium album BG8 expressing particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) and the inhibitory effects of these compounds on microbial growth and whole-cell ...
Monitoring granule formation in anaerobic upflow bioreactors using oligonucleotide hybridization probes
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-06-20)
The process of granule formation in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors was studied using oligonucleotide hybridization probes. Two laboratory-scale UASB reactors were inoculated with sieved primary anaerobic ...
