In waste water treatment processes microorganisms are subjected to a feast and famine regime. For sequencing batch processes this is often even more pronounced. Based on literature reports and own research it is hypothesized that in general microorganisms respond to these feast-famine regimes by accumulating storage p…

Large, hard, transparent, mesoporous silica spheres are synthesized in one step by using oil-in-water emulsion chemistry under basic conditions with cationic surfactants and (n-BuO)4Si. The pores are shown by TEM and nitrogen absorption studies to be monodispersed in size, with total surface area over 1000 m2/g.

The properties of amorphous carbon (a-C) deposited using a filtered cathodic vacuum arc as a function of the ion energy and substrate temperature are reported. The sp3 fraction was found to strongly depend on the ion energy, giving a highly sp3 bonded a-C denoted as tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) at ion energies…

The Mg:Ca ratio at which the calcium carbonate mineral that has pseudohomogeneously precipitated from seawater changes from calcite to aragonite was experimentally determined as a function of temperature. Results indicate a dramatic change in the critical Mg:Ca ratio over a relatively small temperature range. For exam…

An investigation of the effect of trapped space charges on the aging of polymeric insulating materials subjected to thermo-electrical stress is reported in this paper. Possible scenarios of degradation mechanisms, thermally activated, but accelerated by the presence of space charges, are examined. The model which deri…

Covalently linked chromophore–quencher complexes are widespread in the area of transition-metal photochemistry and as models for photosynthesis. This review surveys recent examples of supramolecular complexes in which interacting chromophore and quencher fragments are instead held together by non-covalent interactions…

The thermoelectric properties of a mixed oxide (Zn 1-x Al x )O (x=0, 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.05) are investigated in terms of materials for high-temperature thermoelectric conversion. The electrical conductivity, σ, of the oxide increases on Al-doping by more than three orders of magnitude up to ca. 10 3 S cm -1 at room…

The oxidation kinetics of CVDSiC were monitored by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in a 50% H 2 O/50% O 2 gas mixture flowing at 1.4 cm/s for temperatures between 1200” and 1400°C. Paralinear weight change kinetics were observed as the water vapor oxidized the SiC and simultaneously volatilized the silica scale. The…
