  • Publication number: 20250320662
    Abstract: Disclosed are a fiber paper and a preparation method thereof. The fiber paper includes a first fiber which includes a polyarylester fiber having a diameter of 0.1-3 ?m, a length of 0.2-5 mm, and an aspect ratio of 800-1200. The polyarylester fiber is used as a raw material and a property of low water absorption rate of which is utilized to improve problems caused by the polyarylester fiber in a high humidity environment. At the same time, the diameter and length of the polyarylester fiber are controlled to meet a specific range, to enable the fiber paper to have better uniformity, density, strength and insulation performance.

  • Publication number: 20230026810
    Abstract: The disclosure discloses a high-frequency transmission LCP film and preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) separately performing acetylation on monomers to obtain acetylated monomers; (2) performing high-temperature polymerization on the acetylated monomers, phenolic resin, acetic anhydride and zinc acetate, and performing pulverization to obtain liquid crystal copolyester; (3) ball milling the liquid crystal copolyester, an inorganic filler, a silane coupling agent and a glass fiber and mixing to obtain a mixture; and melt-plasticizing the mixture to form a film after cooling, performing longitudinal and transverse synchronous stretching, then winding and slitting the film to obtain a high-frequency transmission LCP film.

  • Publication number: 20160122213
    Abstract: Methods of controlling a nitrification reaction in a biological nitrogen removal reactor to favor partial nitrification of ammonia to nitrite instead of complete oxidation of ammonia to nitrate are disclosed. In some embodiments, the methods include the following: maintaining a pH in the reactor within a range that promotes growth of ammonia oxidizing bacteria; maintaining a concentration of dissolved oxygen in the reactor within a range that limits the ammonia oxidizing bacteria from completing nitrification; selecting an operational solids retention time within a range suitable for maintaining increasing concentrations of the ammonia oxidizing bacteria in the reactor while reducing concentrations of nitrite oxidizing bacteria in the reactor; and increasing a concentration of free ammonia in the reactor thereby inhibiting growth of the nitrite oxidizing bacteria in the reactor.

  • Publication number: 20110015082
    Abstract: Systems and methods for evaluating the operating conditions in a biological nitrogen removal reactor using gene expression and abundance tracking are disclosed. In some embodiments, the systems and methods include the following: obtaining a sample from the reactor during continuous reactor operation; expressing predetermined nitrification, denitrification, and structural genes for ammonia oxidizing bacteria contained in the sample to develop a sample genetic profile of the ammonia oxidizing bacteria; obtaining a genetic profile of a second bacteria substantially similar to the ammonia oxidizing bacteria, wherein the second bacteria was grown in a reactor having substantially optimum operating conditions; and comparing the sample genetic profile to the genetic profile of the second bacteria.
