The treatment of the wastewater of Carmine-6B Process was studied using an electrochemical batch reactor with Pt-electrodes. The concentration of azo dye was exponentially decreased unto 6-37% residuum during 50 hr operations. The fractional conversion was not influenced by the initial pH value, but it was increased with increasing the rotating speed and/or temperature of the electrolyte. It was observed by the differential method of rate analysis that the rate of the oxidation reaction at anode was exponentially increased with increasing the cell voltage. The pH of the wastewater was changed from acid or alkali to neutral. The COD of the solution was increased at the beginning of the treatment, but it was decreased soon.

In general, a multipath generator consists of a time delay generator, phase rotator, and amplitude attenuator, and is implemented mostly in an analog manner. Analog, or partially analog versions of a multipath generator is disadvantageous in that they may suffer from problems associated with component aging and adjustment, signal fidelity degradation stemming from repeated A/D and D/A conversion use of high frequency to achieve fine i.e., subsample fractional tin delays. This paper presents the design and implementation methodology of a full digital multipath generator which can be used in performance evaluations of digital terrestrial television as well as communications, receivers. In particular, an efficient practical method is proposed which can achieve both integer and fractional time delays simultaneously, without placing restrictions on the allowable system master clock frequency. The proposed algorithm lends itself to minimizing hardware implementation cost by relegating some fixed put of the computation involved to an IBM PC. The proposed multipath generator occupies only a single digital board space, and its experimental results are provided to corroborate the proposed implementation methodology.

Differential power processing (DPP) systems are among the most effective architectures for photovoltaic (PV) power systems because they are highly efficient as a result of their distributed local maximum power point tracking ability, which allows the fractional processing of the total generated power. However, DPP systems require a high-efficiency, high step-up/down bidirectional converter with broad operating ranges and galvanic isolation. This study proposes a single, magnetic, high-efficiency, high step-up/down bidirectional DC-DC converter. The proposed converter is composed of a bidirectional flyback and a bidirectional isolated switched-capacitor cell, which are competitively cheap. The output terminals of the flyback converter and switched-capacitor cell are connected in series to obtain the voltage step-up. In the reverse power flow, the converter reciprocally operates with high efficiency across a broad operating range because it uses hard switching instead of soft switching. The proposed topology achieves a genuine on-off interleaved energy transfer at the transformer core and windings, thus providing an excellent utilization ratio. The dynamic characteristics of the converter are analyzed for the controller design. Finally, a 240 W hardware prototype is constructed to demonstrate the operation of the bidirectional converter under a current feedback control loop. To improve the efficiency of a PV system, the maximum power point tracking method is applied to the proposed converter.
