Application of an Anaerobic–Anoxic–Oxic–Oxic (AAO/O) Model to the Treatment of Real Domestic Wastewater by Duc-Thuong Vo, Hoang-Vinh-Truong Phan, Le-Thuy-Thuy-Trang Hoang, Van-Kieu Nguyen, Thanh-Nha Tran, Minh-Trung Dao

“…A conventional anaerobic–anoxic–oxic (AAO) process is recognized as an easy-to-handle approach that constrains chemical use during the procedure. Herein, we improve an AAO system by adding more oxic orders in association with a biological membrane in order to increase the hydraulic retention time (HRT) of the oxic zone in the system. …”

Temperature Sensing in Agarose/Silk Fibroin Translucent Hydrogels: Preparation of an Environment for Long-Term Observation by Maria Micheva, Stanislav Baluschev, Katharina Landfester

“…This process generates two optical signals (delayed emitter fluorescence (dF) and residual sensitizer phosphorescence (rPh)) in response to a single external stimulus (local temperature), allowing the application of the ratiometric-type sensing procedure. The ability to incorporate large amounts of sacrificial singlet oxygen scavenging materials, without altering the temperature sensitivity, allows long-term protection against photo-oxidative damage to the sensing moieties. …”
