Biogas production transforms organic matter into methane, carbon dioxide and ammonia (NH3). The aim of this study was reducing NH3 emissions from liquid effluents of agricultural anaerobic digesters. An alternative to classic nitrification-denitrification ...
The aim in this project was the optimization of LaFeO3-based perovskite materials for oxygen separation membranes (OSM). The work was carried out by the Laboratory for High Performance Ceramics, Empa in collaboration with the Laboratory for Industrial Ener ...
Industrial filamentous fungal fermentations are typically operated in fed- batch mode. Oxygen control represents an important operational challenge due to the varying biomass concentration. In this study, oxygen control is implemented by manipulating the s ...
The increasing use of contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for medical diagnosis is due to the ability, called relaxivity, of these paramagnetic compounds to accelerate the relaxation of the surrounding water proton spins. A new classical fo ...
Strontium Bismuth Titanate is a very promising material for high temperature piezoelectric applications, its elevated ferroelectric phase transition (530°C), linear piezoelectric properties under low field and relatively low room temperature conductivity ( ...
We report on a distortion of Bi2Sr2CanCun+1 O6+2n+x (n = 0,1) single crystals, perpendicular to the CuO2 planes (the c-axis), for non-stoichiometric samples containing an excess of Bi. The distortion involves two parts: (a) symmetric displacements in the S ...
During fetal circulatory compromise, velocity pulsations in the precordial veins increase and are commonly transmitted through the ductus venosus into the umbilical vein, indicating a serious prognosis. The nature of the pulsations and their transmission i ...
Toluene oxidn. over Pb/Li/MgO is investigated in a tubular fixed bed reactor at low conversions. A periodic process alternating toluene oxidn. in absence of oxygen in the feed and regeneration of the catalyst by oxygen presents important changes in product ...
Current therapy for several forms of anemia involves a weekly regime of multiple subcutaneous injections of recombinant human erythropoietin (hEpo). In an effort to provide a physiologically regulated administration of erythropoietin, we are developing cel ...
Bubble-free aeration is applied in animal cell culture processes for oxygenation to avoid shear stress and foaming assocd. with direct sparging into the culture. Oxygen mass transfer across PTFE-membranes was detd. in three different reactor systems that m ...
