This study was conducted to find the capability of comparison of overall oxygen transfer coefficient in the membrane coupled high performance reactor (MPHCR) in treating high organic loading wastewater. Effluent quality had been analyzed while the influent organic loading rate was changed from 2 to $7kg\;COD/m^3{\cdot}day$. The oxygen transfer coefficients had been investigated using two-phase nozzle for operating variables which were internal circulation flowrate (5~8 L/min), air flow rate (0.0125~0.2 L/min), liquid temperature ($10{\sim}20^{\circ}C$), and pure-oxygen flow rate (0.0125~0.2 L/min). The overall oxygen transfer coefficient was increased with flowrate of internal circulation and air and high temperature. Especially, internal circulation flow rate showed distinct effect on overall oxygen transfer coefficient due to an increase of gas holdup and air-liquid contract area by two-phase nozzle. In the high range of organic loading rate from 4 to $7kg\;COD/m^3{\cdot}day$, the removable efficiency of COD was 91%. Conventional activated sludge process usually treat organic loading from 0.32 to $0.64kg\;COD/m^3{\cdot}day$ however, the MPHCR can treat 10 to 20 times higher if it would be compared to the conventional activated sludge process. Foaming problem often happened and caused biomass wash out of the reactor, therefore, the foaming should be controlled for the enhanced operation.

Purpose: The goal of this study was to see how different aerobic exercise intensities affected AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), reactive oxygen, and antioxidant enzymes in young mice during an 8-week period. Methods: Forty male C57BL/6 mice, aged seven weeks, were randomly assigned to one of four groups: control (n=10), low-intensity exercise (n=10), moderate-intensity exercise (n=10), and high-intensity exercise (n=10). For eight weeks, aerobic activity was performed once a day for 35-40 minutes, five days a week. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, analysis of variance (ANOVA), chi-squared tests, and the Tukey test in the SPSS/WIN 25.0 program. Results: Weight (p=.001) was substantially different between the moderate-intensity exercise group and the control group in AMPK (p<.001). In addition, there were no significant differences between the moderate-intensity exercise group and the control group in reactive oxygen malondialdehyde (MDA) levels (p=.136) and antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels (p=.521). Conclusion: These findings suggest that moderate-intensity aerobic exercise increased AMPK activation and helped young mice shed weight.

There are two major issues for activated sludge process in sewage treatment plant. One is how to make sewage be more clean and the other is the energy saving in sewage treatment process. The major monitoring sewage qualities are chemical oxygen demand, phosphorus, nitrogen, suspended solid in effluent. These are transmitted to the national TMS(Telemetry Monitoring System) at every hour. If these exceed the environmental standard, the environmental charges imposed. So, these water qualities are to be controlled below the environmental standard in operation of sewage treatment plant. And recently, the energy saving is also important in process operation. Over 50% energy is consumed in blowers and motors for injection oxygen into aeration tank. So, with the water qualities to be controlled below the environmental standard, the energy saving also is to be accomplished for efficient plant management. Almost researches are aimed to control water quality without considering energy saving. AI techniques have been used for control water quality. AI modeling simulator provided the optimal control inputs(blower speed, waste sludge, return sludge) for control water quality. Blower speed is the main control input for activated sludge process. To make sewage be more clean, the excessive blower speed is supplied, but water quality is not better than the previous. In results, non necessary energy is consumed. In this paper we propose a new method that the energy saving also is to be accomplished with the water qualities to be controlled below the environmental standard for efficient plant management. Water qualities in only aeration tank are used the inputs of fuzzy models. Outputs of these models are chemical oxygen demand, phosphorus, nitrogen, suspended solid in effluent and have the environmental standards. In test, we found this method could save 10% energy than the previous methods.

NBCO thin films have been fabricated by magnetron sputtering technique on heated $SrTiO_3$ substrates. The oxidation and crystallization of the films were strongly dependent on the distance between the targets and the substrate, as well as on the oxygen partial pressure. The critical temperatures were above 80K for the films prepared under the condition of a small target to substrate gap, in spite of a very low oxygen pressure of 0.2Pa. The results suggest the importance of the activated oxygen uptake into the films during sputtering.

One of the main problems to constitute control method on biologically oriented wastewater purification processes, e.g. activated sludge process, sequential batch reactor, rotating bio-disk contactor, etc. is that it is hard to control the target component directly. For instance, while biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, and chemical oxygen demand are the key components to check the process performance, one may not control them directly since they are the results of microbial activities related to numerous physiochemical factors. Therefore controllers for bioprocess should be designed to make favorable condition for microorganisms´ living, e.g. dissolved oxygen level favorable, mixed liquor suspended solids concentration suitable ...

A downstream oxygen plasma is generated by capacitively coupled RF power and applied to photoresist stripping. Stripping rate (ashing rate) is measured in terms of RF power, chamber pressure, oxygen flow rate and temperature. Ashing reaction is thermally activated and depends on oxygen radical density. The ashing process is optimized to have the high ashing rate, good uniformity and minimal plasma damage using a statistical method.

The addition of oxygen scavengers to food products helps to reduce oxygen exposure, thereby mitigating deterioration, including changes in taste, odor, and color, as well as inhibiting microbial growth. Despite the advantages of the existing non-metallic oxygen removal materials in terms of safety for the human body and suitability for use in microwave ovens, their utilization has been limited due to their slow reaction initiation speed. Therefore, in the current study, sodium metabisulfite was impregnated into various porous media, including halloysite nanoclay, activated carbon, montmorillonite, and silica gel. The oxygen scavenger, produced by impregnating silica gel with sodium metabisulfite, demonstrated a 425% improvement in the initial oxygen removal rate compared to pure sodium metabisulfite. Additionally, sachets containing an oxygen-removing composition with an enhanced oxygen removal rate effectively decreased the oxygen concentration to less than 0.5% on the third day of storage in apple packaging, without elevating carbon dioxide levels. Moreover, it proved effective in preventing the browning of the apple surface. Therefore, the SM/SG oxygen-removal composition can be effectively applied to active food packaging by controlling the oxygen concentration within the packaging.

전기이중층 커패시터(electric double layer capacitor, EDLC) 전극용 핏치계 활성탄소섬유의 고출력 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 불소와 산소 혼합가스의 다양한 불소분압에 따라 함산소불소화 표면처리를 수행하였다. 함산소불소화 처리된 핏치계 활성탄소섬유는 불소 부분압이 증가함에 따라 선형적인 불소관능기의 증가를 보였고, 산소관능기는 증가하였으나 부분압에 따라 차이가 없었다. 또한 함산소불소화를 통하여 활성탄소섬유 표면의 식각 반응으로 인하여 비표면적 및 기공부피는 감소하였으나 중간기공 부피는 약 4.5배 증가하였다. 50%의 불소가스 분압으로 처리한 활성탄소섬유의 경우 5와 50 mV/s의 전압주입속도에서 비정전용량이 약 29%와 61%로 증가함을 확인하였다. 이러한 비정전용량의 향상은 함산소불소화 처리를 통한 활성탄소섬유 표면의 산소 및 불소 관능기의 도입과 중간기공의 증가에 의한 효과로 사료된다.

The lattice oxygen mechanism (LOM) is considered one of the promising approaches to overcome the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER), bypassing -OOH^* coordination with a high energetic barrier. Activated lattice oxygen can participate in the OER as a reactant and enables O^*-O^* coupling for direct O₂ formation. However, such reaction kinetics inevitably include the generation of oxygen vacancies, which leads to structural degradation, and eventually shortens the lifetime of catalysts. Here, we demonstrate that Se incorporation significantly enhances OER performance and the stability of NiFe (oxy)hydroxide (NiFe) which follows the LOM pathway. In Se introduced NiFe (NiFeSe), Se forms not only metal-Se bonding but also Se-oxygen bonding by replacing oxygen sites and metal sites, respectively. As a result, transition metals show reduced valence states while oxygen shows less reduced valence states (O^-/O₂^2-) which is a clear evidence of lattice oxygen activation. By virtue of its electronic structure modulation, NiFeSe shows enhanced OER activity and long-term stability with robust active lattice oxygen compared to NiFe.

By using high resolution x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we show that inelastic scattering of photoelectron at low temperature (30K~50K) generates two kinds of oxygen species on Pt (111) surface. Intense synchrotron radiation source dissociates oxygen molecules into chemisorbed atomic oxygen and induces the formation of PtO on surface. Estimated coverage of dissociated atomic oxygen is 0.5 ML, suggesting possible formation of p($2{\times}1$) surface structure, while PtO coverage shows saturation coverage of 0.5 ML. Molecular oxygen dosed at 30 K undergoes thermally activated transition from physisorbed to chemisorbed state at around 40K.
