Abstract: Disclosed is a method of denitrifying a solution including introducing into the solution an amount of a carbon source within a duration and at a frequency so that indigenous heterotrophic bacteria deplete dissolved oxygen in the solution and obtain oxygen from nitrate in the solution. Related apparatuses and compounds also are disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for denitrifying a solution that includes a denitrification tank configured to receive a portion of the solution for a period of time. Controlling an amount, duration and frequency of introduction of polyethylene glycol into the solution promotes indigenous heterotrophic bacteria depleting dissolved oxygen in the solution and obtaining oxygen from nitrate in the solution.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of denitrifying a solution including introducing into the solution an amount of a carbon source within a duration and at a frequency so that indigenous heterotrophic bacteria deplete dissolved oxygen in the solution and decompose oxygen from nitrate in the solution to obtain its combined oxygen. Related apparatuses and compounds also are disclosed.

Abstract: A reservoir is configured to receive a first fluid, and has an inlet configured to receive a second fluid and an outlet. Second fluid received in the reservoir drives a corresponding amount of first fluid out of the outlet and into the wastewater treatment system. A method also is disclosed.

Abstract: A data storage system that houses at least two mass storage devices in an enclosure, along with all interconnect cabling electronics to permit access through a shared universal-type interface. An enclosure houses multiple mass storage devices such as disk drives. A set of bridges located within the enclosure provides connectivity from the disk interface to the universal-type bus. Bridge outputs are coupled to a universal hub also located within the enclosure to provide a single port interface to the array of disks. The arrangement thus provides for connectivity to multiple mass storage devices housing in a single enclosure with a single universal bus interface.

Abstract: A voltage recovery device is configured to provide reactive power to a utility power network at a level and for a duration sufficient to recover the voltage on the utility power network within a predetermined proportion of the nominal voltage, following a fault condition detected on the utility power network. In operation, the voltage recovery device reduces the overall transmission losses in a utility power system.

Abstract: a voltage recovery device is configured to provide real and reactive power to a utility power network at a sufficient level and for a sufficient duration to recover the voltage on the utility power network within a predetermined proportion of the nominal voltage, following a fault condition detected on the utility power network. Moreover, the voltage recovery device reduces the overall transmission losses in a utility power system.

Abstract: A piston assembly is provided for use in an engine. The piston assembly includes a piston body including a crown with a skirt extending from the crown. The skirt has an exterior surface. The exterior surface has a surface finish in a wave form with peaks and valleys, and having a roughness total between approximately 6 and 8 micrometers. The roughness total is defined as the difference between the highest peak and lowest valley within an assessment length. The surface finish has an approximate peak-to-peak distance between 0.18 and 0.23 mm within the assessment length. A composite coating is provided over the exterior surface.
