  • Publication number: 20260001794
    Abstract: The present application discloses an inorganic-biohybrid and a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment. The inorganic-biohybrid is obtained by hybridization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and activated sludge derived from a denitrification biological filter. When being used in a hydrogen-based membrane bioreactor (H2-MBfR) to perform denitrification of wastewater, the inorganic-biohybrid can be attached to a hollow fiber membrane to form a biofilm, so as to increase diffusion rates of H2 and NO3— in the biofilm, thereby effectively alleviating a dual-substrate diffusion limitation of H2-MBfR, increasing an H2 utilization rate thereof and reducing an explosion risk.

  • Patent number: 11746029
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for starting a single-stage system for nitrogen removal coupling partial denitrification and anammox. The two nitrogen removal processes are coupled by gradually enriching denitrifying bacteria in anammox granular sludge and then activating the partial denitrification process of the functional bacteria (denitrifying bacteria). Particularly, the method comprises: inoculating anammox granular sludge in a single-stage reactor, adding an organic carbon source in gradients to enrich denitrifying bacteria and to adapt anammox bacteria, and replacing nitrites in feed with nitrates gradually to activate the partial denitrification process.

  • Publication number: 20220304946
    Abstract: Overexpression of prolyl endopeptidase (PEP) activity in the brain was found to be linked with neurodegenerative disorders, and the memory loss caused by amnesic compounds can be restored by PEP inhibitors. In the current intervention, the PEP inhibitory activity of trans-anethole ((E)-1-Methoxy-4-(1-propenyl)benzene), an essential oil that is naturally occurring in Illicium verum (star anise) has been assessed. More specifically, the present invention relates to finding of a potent inhibitor of prolyl endopeptidase (Trans-Anethole ((E)-1-Methoxy-4-(1-propenyl)benzene).
