Styrofoam beads, which are relatively inexpensive and can provide a large specific surface area, were tested as filter media. Styrofoam beads with a diameter of $3{\pm}0.5mm$ were used; the specific surface area of the beads was $1,034m^2{\cdot}m^{-3}$. Five independent recirculating culture systems were used in the experiment. Each system consisted of one culture tank and three trickling bio-filters. Using the systems, nitrification efficiency was evaluated with respect to hydraulic loading rate (HLR) and carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratio. The lowest ammonia and nitrogen concentrations were $0.84mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and $1.30mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, respectively, observed at an HLR of $50.9m^3{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}h^{-1}$. Nitrification efficiency in the culture tank was highest at a C/N ratio of 0, with ammonia and nitrite nitrogen concentrations of $0.32mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and $0.90mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, respectively. Ammonia and nitrite nitrogen concentrations in the culture tank abruptly changed at C/N ratios ${\geq}3$.

고정상 생물여과지(biofiiter)에서 유입 C/N(COD/Nitrate)비와 용존산소(DO) 농도가 지하수로부터 질산성 질소를 제거하는데 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 유입 C/N비 10과 4.0에서 30 mg/L로 유입된 질산성 질소는 생물학적 탈질반응에 의해 완전히 제거되었다. 반면, 유입 C/N비 2.0에서는 전자공여체가 부족하였기 때문에 5.0 mg/L의 질산성 질소가 유출되었다. 게다가, 유입 C/N비가 2로 감소함에 따라 5.0 mg/L에 달하는 아질산성 질소가 발생하였다. 유입 C/N비 5에서 DO 농도의 증가는 탈질반응을 저해하였으며, 질산성 질소제거효율을 감소시켰다. 아황산나트륨($Na_2SO_3$)을 이용하여 유입 DO농도를 조절할 경우, 0.3 mg/L의 낮은 DO에도 불구하고 유출수 중 3.6 mg/L의 아질산성 질소가 잔류하였다. 반면, 질소가스를 이용하여 DO농도를 0.3 mg/L로 조절한 경우, 유입된 질산성 질소는 완전히 제거되었으며, 아질산성 질소는 검출되지 않았다. 생물여과지에서 유입된 질산성 질소를 제거하는데 소비된 유기물은 $3.0{\sim}3.5gSCOD/g{NO_3}^--N$의 범위이었으나, DO 농도가 5.5 mg/L로 증가함에 따라 소비된 그 양은 증가하였다. 높은 DO 농도 및 낮은 유입 C/N비와 함께 아황산나트륨을 이용한 DO 농도 조절은 생물학적 탈질반응에 영향을 주었으며, 질산성 질소제거효율을 감소시키고 아질산성 질소가 축적되었다.

본 연구에서는 2기의 부직포 여과막 생물반응조를 60분/60분의 포기/비포기 시간비에서 교대로 포기시키고 폐수를 주입시키면서 C/N비(COD/TKN)를 10에서 2까지 점감시켜 유입수의 C/N비가 유기물 및 질소 제거효율에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 실험에 사용된 폐수는 I시의 음식물 쓰레기 처리장에서 배출되는 침출수를 COD가 약 2,500 mg/L 정도 되도록 20배 희석시킨 것으로, C/N비는 염화암모늄($NH_4Cl$)을 첨가하여 조정하였다. 실험결과, $10{\sim}3$의 C/N비에서는 유출수의 COD 및 BOD 농도가 각각 $40{\sim}54\;mg/L$ 및 $1{\sim}4\;mg/L$로 나타났으며, 처리수의 SS농도는 항상 2.0 mg/L 미만으로 유지되었다. $10{\sim}5$의 C/N비에서는 96%의 총질소 제거효율를 보였으나 3 및 2.8의 C/N비에서는 총질소 제거효율이 각각 83% 및 81%로 낮아졌다. 2 및 2.6의 C/N비에서는 암모니아 독성에 의하여 처리수의 수질이 악화되었다. C/N비가 5에서 2.6으로 낮아질수록 질산화 미생물 분율이 10%에서 20%로 증가하였다. 알칼리도 소비량은 $10{\sim}5$의 C/N비에서는 $3.12{\sim}3.49\;g$ alkalinity/g T-N removed로 이론적인 값 3.57 g alkalinity/g T-N removed보다 낮았으나, 3 및 2.8의 C/N비에서는 4.63 및 4.87 g alkalinity/g T-N removed로 나타났다.

Background: Inflammatory hematological parameters like the neutrophil/lymphocyte (N/L) ratio have been investigated in many cancer types and significant relationships found with prognosis, for example. The aim of this present study was to investigate the impact of hematological parameters notably on N/L ratio and mean platelet volume (MPV) in papillary thyroid cancer cases. Materials and Methods: A total of 79 patients who underwent a thyroidectomy operation in Findikli, Goiter Research and Treatment Center during 2011-2015 period were enrolled in the study, 41 with papillary thyroid cancer and 38 with benign goiter confirmed by pathological examination. We collected clinical and laboratory data for the patients from hospital records retrospectively. Blood samples taken at admission were assessed for parameters compared between the groups. Results: No significant differences between papillary thyroid cancer and benign goiter groups were apparent in terms of age, the N/L ratio, MPV, white blood cell count (WBC), red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet, neutrophil, lymphocyte, red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and platelet crit (PCT) levels (p>0.05). Only the level of platelet distribution width (PDW) significantly differed, being lower in the papillary cancer group (p<0.05). Conclusions: No significant relationship between papillary thyroid cancer and inflammatory hematological parameters including in particular the N/L ratio and MPV. The relevance of the PDW values remains unclear.

The effects of carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratio in simulated rice straw hydrolysates using glucose and ammonium chloride on polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) accumulation by Cupriavidus necator was investigated. In general, PHA accumulation rate was higher under higher degrees of N-deficient conditions (e.g., C/N ratio of 360:1) than lower degrees of N-deficient conditions (e.g., C/N ratio of 3.6:1 and 36:1). Also, the most PHA accumulation was observed during the first 12 h after the PHA accumulation initiation. This study showed that the similar PHA accumulation could be achieved by using different accumulation periods depending on C/N ratios. N source presence was important for new cell production, supported by approximately ten times greater PHA accumulation under the N-deficient condition ($NH_4Cl$ 0.01 g/L) than the N-free (without $NH_4Cl$) condition after 96 h. C/N ratio of the rice straw hydrolysate was approximately 160:1, based on the glucose content, and this accumulated $0.36{\pm}0.0033g/L$ PHA with PHA content of $21{\pm}3.1%$ after 12 h. Since external C or N source addition for C/N ratio adjustment increases production cost, an appropriate accumulation period may be used for PHA accumulation from organic wastes, based on the PHA accumulation patterns observed at various C/N ratios and C and N concentrations.

The HCCI engines have been known with high efficiency and low pollution and can be actualized as the new internal combustion engines. However, As for(??) the ignition and combustion depend strongly on the oxidation reaction of the fuel, so it is difficult to control auto-ignition timing and combustion duration. Purpose of this paper is creating the database for development of multi-dimensional simulation and investigating the influence of different molecular structure. In this research, the effect of n-heptane mole ratio in fuel (XnH) on the ignition delay from homogeneous charge compression ignition(HCCI) has been investigated experimentally. By varying the XnH, it was possible to ascertain whether or not XnH is the main resource of ignition delay. Additionally, the information on equivalence ratio for varying XnH was obtained. The tests were performed on a RCM (Rapid Compression Machine) fueled with n-heptane and iso-octane. The results showed that decreasing XnH (100, 30, 20, 10,0), the ignition delays of low temperature reaction (tL) and high temperature reaction (tH) is longer. And the temperature of reaction increases by about 30K. n-heptane partial equivalence ratio (fnH) affect on tL.and TL. When ${\phi}$nH was increased as a certain value, tL was decreased and TL was increased.

To treat piggery wastewater containing refractory compounds including nitrogen, physical treatments using zeolite and biological processes were investigated. In biogical treatment, the removal efficiencies of organics and nitrogen in bioreador using BACC (Biological Activated Carbon Cartridge) media filled with granule activated carbon were examined. The best removal efficiencies achieved for TKN and COD(sub)cr were 82% and 53% respectively, when zeolite dosage was 300 g/L. Specific nitrogen removal ability was 3.2 mg/g at a zeolite dosage of 50 g/L, whereas specific nitrogen removal ability was 1.8 mg/g at a zeolite dosage of 300 g/L. The increased of C/N ratio resulting from the removal of nitrogen using zeolite led to an increase in removal efficiency of organics. As C/N ratio was increased to 2.0, 2.44 and 6.58 at a HRT of 48 hours in a BACC bioreactor, removal efficiencies of COD(sub)cr were increased to 53.5%, 57.4% and 80.6%. The removal efficiency of wastewater using a zeolite dosage of 399 g/L was increased by 27.1% compared to that of control treatment.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the nitrification characteristics of biological aerated filter (BAF) packed with ceramic media, especially focusing on nitrite build-up during nitrification. When increasing the nitrogen load above $1.63kgNH_4{^+}-N/m^3{\cdot}d$, ammonium removal efficiency decreased to less than 60% and the nitrite ratio ($NO_2{^-}-N/NO_x-N$) of higher than 75% was achieved due to the inhibitory free ammonia (FA, $NH_3-N$) concentration and oxygen limitation. FA inhibition, however, is not recommended strategy to promote nitrite build-up since FA concentration in the reactor is coupled with decreased ammonium removal efficiency. Nitrite ratio in the effluent was also affected by aeration rate and influent ammonium concentration. Ammonium oxidation was enhanced at a higher aeration rate regardless of influent ammonium concentration but, the nitrite ratio was dependent on both aeration rate and influent ammonium concentration. While a higher nitrite ratio was obtained when BAFs were fed with $50mgNH_4{^+}-N/L$ of influent, the nitrite ratio significantly decreased for a greater influent concentration of $200-300mgNH_4{^+}-N/L$. Taken together, aeration rate, influent ammonium concentration and FA concentrations kept in the BAF were found to be critical variables for nitrite accumulation in the BAF system.
