    Notes: Biological reduction of nitrate and nitrite was studied with a continuously operated cyclic reactor. The medium was fed to the reactor during the first phase of the cycle, and the effluent was drawn from the reactor during the third phase of the cycle; reaction occurred throughout the cycle. The process was described mathematically based on kinetic expressions revealed in an independent study. The model equations were subjected to detailed analysis with numerical codes based on the bifurcation theory for forced systems. The analysis has shown that in the operating parameter space there are extensive regions where the system can reach up to three different periodic states. The results of this analysis are shown in the form of two-dimensional operating diagrams. Numerical results have also shown that under certain operating conditions nitrate can be completely eliminated, while nitrite remains practically untreated. An experimental unit was designed, constructed, and used in experiments with a strain of Pseudomonas denitrificans [American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) 13867] under different operating conditions. The experimental results confirmed the theoretical predictions both qualitatively and quantitatively. Conditions under which complete reduction of both nitrate and nitrite is achieved, were found and experimentally verified. The results of this study suggest a methodology for analysis and design of cyclically operated bioreactors employed in denitrification of wastewaters. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Vibrational study of phosphate modes in GDP and GTP and their interaction with magnesium in aqueous solution (1998)

    Notes: Raman and infrared spectra were examined for guanosine 5′-diphosphate (GDP) and guanosine 5′-triphosphate (GTP) in aqueous solution. The vibrational modes were assigned on the basis of isotopic frequency shifts and relative intensities in the Raman and infrared spectra. The observed frequency shifts on 18O isotope labeling made it possible to identify the bands from each phosphate group (α, β, γ). Frequency shifts were observed as Mg2+ complexes with GDP and GTP. The results suggested that Mg2+ binds to GDP in a bidentate manner to the α, β P · · O bonds and in a tridentate manner to the α, β and γ P · · O bonds of Mg·GTP. The results indicate that structure of Mg2+ coordinated to GTP in aqueous solution differs somewhat to that found for Mg·ATP. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biospectroscopy 4: 219-227, 1998

    Fundamental denitrification kinetic studies with Pseudomonas denitrificans (1995)

    Notes: Fundamental kinetic studies on the reduction of nitrate, nitrite, and their mixtures were performed with a strain of Pseudomonas denitrificans (ATCC 13867). Methanol served as the carbon source and was supplied in excess (2:1 mole ratio relative to nitrate and/or nitrite). Nitrate and nitrite served as terminal electron acceptors as well as sources of nitrogen for biomass synthesis. The results were explained under the assumption that respiration is a growth-associated process. It was found that the sequence of complete reduction of nitrate to nitrogen gas is via nitrite and nitrous oxide.It was found that the specific growth rate of the biomass on either nitrate or nitrite follows Andrews inhibitory kinetics and nitrite is more inhibitory than nitrate. It was also found that the culture has severe maintenance requirements which can be described by Herbert's model, i.e., by self-oxidation of portions of the biomass. The specific maintenance rates at 30°C and pH 7.1 were found to be equal to about 28% of the maximum specific growth rate on nitrate and 23% of the maximum specific growth rate on nitrite. Nitrate and nitrite were found to be involved in a cross-inhibitory noncompetitive kinetic interaction. The extent of this interaction is negligible when the presence of nitrite is low but is considerable when nitrite is present at levels above 15 mg/L.Studies on the effect of temperature have shown that the culture cannot grow at temperatures above 40°C. The optimal temperature for nitrate or nitrite reduction was found to be about 38°C. Using an Arrhenius expression to describe the effect of temperature on the specific growth rates, it was found that the activation energy for the use of nitrate by the culture is 8.6 kcal/mol and 7.21 kcal/mol for nitrite. Arrhenius-type expressions were also used in describing the effect of temperature on each of the parameters appearing in the specific growth rate expressions. Studies on the effect of pH at 30°C have shown that the culture reduces nitrate optimally at a pH between 7.4 and 7.6, and nitrite at a pH between 7.2 and 7.3. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Comparative study of various methods for thermogravimetric analysis of polystyrene degradation (1980)

    Notes: Various methods of thermogravimetric analysis were compared in case of polystyrene degradation. The reaction order, the activation energy and the preexponential factor were evaluated from common TG curves experimentally obtained. In most cases a 5-mg sample of polystyrene with 110,000 molecular weight was decomposed at heating rate of 10°C/min. The reaction was found under this experimental condition to be of first order with activation energy of 61.0 kcal/mole, though there were slight differences depending on the analytical methods used.
