DIRECTIONAL SELECTION OF MICROBIAL COMMUNITY REDUCES PROPIONATE ACCUMULATION IN GLYCEROL AND GLUCOSE ANAEROBIC BIOCONVERSION UNDER ELEVATED PCO2

Directional Selection of Microbial Community Reduces Propionate Accumulation in Glycerol and Glucose Anaerobic Bioconversion Under Elevated pCO2

Volatile fatty acid accumulation is a sign of digester perturbation.Previous work showed the thermodynamic limitations of hydrogen and CO2 in syntrophic propionate oxidation under elevated partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2).Here we study the effect of directional selection under increasing substrate load as a strategy to restructure the microbial commu

On Two Priority Multi-Server Queues with Impatient Customers

This study considers a system of multi-server queues with two classes of impatient customers: high-priority and low-priority.Customers join the system according to a Poisson process and customers may abandon service after entering the queue for an exponentially distributed duration with distinct rates.In this paper, we consider last come-first serv

Model of daytime emissions of electronically-vibrationally excited products of O3 and O2 photolysis: application to ozone retrieval

The traditional kinetics of electronically excited products of O3 and O2 photolysis is supplemented with the processes of the energy transfer between electronically-vibrationally excited levels O2(a1Δg, v) and O2(b1Σ+g, v), excited atomic oxygen O(1D), and the O2 molecules in the ground electronic state O2(X3Σg−, v).In contr
