Solid-state fermentation, featured by water-saving, eco-friendly and high concentration product, is a promising technology in lignocellulosic ethanol industry. However, in solid-state fermentation system, large gas content inside the substrate directly leads to high oxygen partial pressure and inhibits ethanol fermentation. Z. mobilis can produce e...

A 3-month outbreak of invasive group A Streptococcus disease at an eldercare facility, in which 5 persons died, was biphasic. Although targeted chemoprophylaxis contained the initial outbreak, a second phase of the outbreak occurred after infection control processes ended. To retrospectively investigate the genomic epidemiology of the biphasic outb...
Staged condensation of coal tar was studied with a three-staged condensation system (first stage S1, 100-300 degrees C; second stage S2, 30-70 degrees C; third stage S3, 0 degrees C) to perform on-line preliminary removal of dust and fundamental fractionation of tar components. The dust and heavy components are predominantly distributed in S1. The ...

Knowledge on regime transition from conventional to circulating fluidization is important to scale-up and operation of liquid-solid fluidized systems in industrial applications. Previous experimental studies reported that the onset velocity measured by bed empty time test is pertinent to the physical properties of particle and liquid, and independe...

Heterogeneous interfaces exhibit the unique phenomena by the redistribution of charged species to equilibrate the chemical potentials. Despite recent studies on the electronic charge accumulation across chemically inert interfaces, the systematic research to investigate massive reconfiguration of charged ions has been limited in heterostructures wi...

We model blast-induced fracturing and fragmentation processes in fractured rocks using a fully coupled fluid-solid interaction model. This model links a finite-discrete element solid solver with a control volume-finite element fluid solver through an immersed-body method. The solid simulator can capture the deformation of intact rocks, interaction ...
